[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#777113: invoke-rc.d, service under systemd: Avoid job dependency loops during boot/shutdown

[Martin Pitt]

Hello all,

Martin Pitt [2015-02-15 16:43 +0100]:
> +  * service, invoke-rc.d: Avoid deadlocks during bootup and shutdown from
> +    units/hooks which call "invoke-rc.d service reload" and similar, since the
> +    synchronous wait plus systemd's normal behaviour of transactionally
> +    processing all dependencies first easily causes dependency loops. Thus
> +    during boot/shutdown operate only on the unit and not on its dependencies,
> +    just like SysV behaves.

Can we please apply this patch now? It already missed jessie :-/ We do
have some workarounds in systemd, but they can't cover all cases.

Martin
