Subject: [PATCH] grub.d: Fix boot_indeterminate getting set on boot_success=0
c294fc
 boot
c294fc
c294fc
The "grub.d: Split out boot success reset from menu auto hide script"
c294fc
not only moved the code to clear boot_success and boot_indeterminate
c294fc
but for some reason also mixed in some broken changes to the
c294fc
boot_indeterminate handling.
c294fc
c294fc
The boot_indeterminate var is meant to suppress the boot menu after
c294fc
a reboot from either a selinux-relabel or offline-updates. These
c294fc
2 special boot scenarios do not set boot_success since there is no
c294fc
successfull interaction with the user. Instead they increment
c294fc
boot_indeterminate, and if it is 1 and only when it is 1, so the
c294fc
first reboot after a "special" boot we suppress the menu.
c294fc
c294fc
To ensure that we do show the menu if we somehow get stuck in a
c294fc
"special" boot loop where we do special-boots without them
c294fc
incrementing boot_indeterminate, the code before the
c294fc
"grub.d: Split out boot success reset from menu auto hide script"
c294fc
commit would increment boot_indeterminate once when it is 1, so that
c294fc
even if the "special" boot reboot-loop immediately we would show the
c294fc
menu on the next boot.
c294fc
c294fc
That commit broke this however, because it not only moves the code,
c294fc
it also changes it from only "incrementing" boot_indeterminate once to
c294fc
always incrementing it, except when boot_success == 1 (and we reset it).
c294fc
c294fc
This broken behavior causes the following problem:
c294fc
c294fc
1. Boot a broken kernel, system hangs, power-cycle
c294fc
2. boot_success now != 1, so we increment boot_indeterminate from 0
c294fc
   (unset!) to 1. User either simply tries again, or makes some changes
c294fc
   but the end-result still is a system hang, power-cycle
c294fc
3. Now boot_indeterminate==1 so we do not show the menu even though the
c294fc
   previous boot failed -> BAD
c294fc
c294fc
This commit fixes this by restoring the behavior of setting
c294fc
boot_indeterminate to 2 when it was 1 before.
