[PATCH 1/1] xfs_scrub_all: wait for services to start activating

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx>

It seems that the function call to start a systemd unit completes
asynchronously from any change in that unit's active state.  On a
lightly loaded system, a Start() call followed by an ActiveState()
call actually sees the change in state from inactive to activating.

Unfortunately, on a heavily loaded system, the state change may take a
few seconds.  If this is the case, the wait() call can see that the unit
state is "inactive", decide that the service already finished, and exit
early, when in reality it hasn't even gotten to 'activating'.

Fix this by adding a second method that watches either for the inactive
-> activating state transition or for the last exit from inactivation
timestamp to change before waiting for the unit to reach inactive state.
