Subject: [PATCH] pstore: Run after modules are loaded
|
|
|
5808e7 |
|
|
|
5808e7 |
The systemd-pstore service takes pstore files on boot and transfers them
|
|
|
5808e7 |
to disk. It only does it once on boot and only if it finds any. The typical
|
|
|
5808e7 |
location of the pstore on modern systems is the UEFI variable store.
|
|
|
5808e7 |
|
|
|
5808e7 |
Most distributions ship with CONFIG_EFI_VARS_PSTORE=m. That means, the
|
|
|
5808e7 |
UEFI variable store is only available on boot after the respective module
|
|
|
5808e7 |
is loaded.
|
|
|
5808e7 |
|
|
|
5808e7 |
In most situations, the pstore service gets loaded before the UEFI pstore,
|
|
|
5808e7 |
so we don't get to transfer logs. Instead, they accumulate, filling up the
|
|
|
5808e7 |
pstore over time, potentially breaking the UEFI variable store.
|
|
|
5808e7 |
|
|
|
5808e7 |
Let's add a service dependency on any kernel module that can provide a
|
|
|
5808e7 |
pstore to ensure we only scan for pstate after we can actually see pstate.
|
|
|
5808e7 |
|
|
|
5808e7 |
I have seen live occurences of systems breaking because we did not erase
|
|
|
5808e7 |
the pstates and ran out of UEFI nvram space.
