Impact ------ Many packages call pymouth --ping and if plymouthd is hung then the package installations can fail. Test Case --------- 1) Run 'sudo /sbin/plymouthd --mode=boot --attach-to-session --pid-file=/run/plymouth/pid' 2) Observe plymouthd is running ('ps aux | grep plymouth') 3) stop the plymouthd process 'sudo kill -STOP $PID' 4) Run 'plymouth --ping --debug' 5) Observe that the plymouth --ping command hangs With the version of plymouth from -proposed you will receive the following output instead. bdmurray@clean-artful-amd64:~$ plymouth --ping --debug [ply-event-loop.c:759] ply_event_loop_stop_watching_fd:stopping watching fd 6 [ply-event-loop.c:775] ply_event_loop_stop_watching_fd:removing destination for fd 6 [./plymouth.c:82] timeout_handler:ping: timed out waiting for plymouthd [./ply-boot-client.c:810] ply_boot_client_detach_from_event_loop:detaching from event loop Notice how the ping command times out. Regression Potential -------------------- Its possible that the timeout of 2 seconds isn't long enough but that seems unlikely.
