This happens on btrfs root filesystems in real hardware and on our virtualized servers as well. 237-3ubuntu10.6 didnt show this errors and going back to 237-3ubuntu10 removes them as well.

I did some tests. This issue is clearly related to btrfs, because I can not reproduce this with ext4. If you have a different filesystem, you have a different issue, maybe the one in https:/
How to reproduce this:
1) clean install from 'ubuntu-
2) system starts fine after reboot
3) issue 'apt install systemd' and get the 'Bad file descriptor' error allready during installation (attached log)
4) reboot with failing systemd-
I will also attach a log of the errors during apt install.

Then I recompiled and installed the new package and the error disappear.
Anyway the involved patches were there to fix some issues:
$ quilt header patches/
Description: tmpfiles: don't resolve pathnames when traversing recursively
through directory trees
Otherwise we can be fooled if one path component is replaced underneath us.
The patch achieves that by always operating at file descriptor level (by using
*at() helpers) and by making sure we do not any path resolution when traversing
direcotry trees.
However this is not always possible, for instance when listing the content of a
directory or some operations don't provide the *at() helpers or others (such as
fchmodat()) don't have the AT_EMPTY_PATH flag. In such cases we operate on
/proc/self/fd/%i pseudo-symlink instead, which works the same for all kinds of
objects and requires no checking of type beforehand.
Also O_PATH flag is used when opening file objects in order to prevent
undesired behaviors: device nodes from reacting, automounts from
triggering, etc...

So I'm not sure if it's a secure/stable workaround

| Andreas Kar (thexmanxyz) wrote : | #35 |
Jurit (juritxyz) I tested the above kernel on 16.04.05 Xenial. However it has to be said that the 4.19.13-sunxi is an ARM7 kernel (Armbian). I don't know on which platform you are but I can easily upgrade this kernel manually over the Armbian configuration application. I assume you are on x86/x64 which is the latest LTS so I assume you're already on the latest kernel supported for your distro. IDK why 4.19.13-sunxi solves it...I still consider this issue unsolved even if the latest kernel on my distro solves it...

@jurit you mention armbian which is not an Ubuntu Project supported flavour. You show kernel version strings for x86_64 arch, instead of ARM.

| Andreas Kar (thexmanxyz) wrote : | #40 |
@Jurit (juritxyz) Stop thinking about the Armbian (ARM) kernel, it has nothing to with your kernel and you won't be able to update to my kernel because as already said it is for ARM7-based SOCs. You are on x86_x64 which needs a proper kernel for your architecture. You can check what kernels are available for your platform and verify if there is a newer one which maybe solves the issue for you. However IDK if there is one. And no you should in no case update to Armbian kernel ... I assume it will break everything. Another option would be to downgrade to systemd 21.11 or 21.10 and hold the packages until the bug is fixed.
| Andreas Kar (thexmanxyz) wrote : | #41 |
@Jurit (juritxyz)
I was wrong you need an other versions of systemd (21.11, 21.10 is for 16.04.5) IDK which ones but you can get them from launchpad I assume you need e.g. this architecture:

You need these packages for successful downgrade get the version before the issue occured:

Are you even on Armbian? What is your distribution! If you are on Armbian please proceed to this thread https:/

download the last working revision for all of them and install it. Afterwards the issue should be gone.

I think this november update changed in some way / ownership. Also I tryed to test it and it recurrenced, if I was not loged in as root, but I did as user sudo apt-get upgrade
To fix it try this, log in as root:
chown root:root /

Jurit - I tried that months ago as documented in the forums. Didnt fix the issue. I also have run the sudo apt-get upgrade several times as well - still not fixed for me. I also see they did push a new kernel - still occurs. Not sure what else I can do...

all updates are out. there no more further updates planned for this issue.
if you have any issues on your systems, you need to debug what's wrong and open a new bug report, attaching systemd-journal details from a broken boot.
most likely something is wrong with your system, forexample unsafe ownership, unsafe permissions, broken host kernel etc.
on all up to date ubuntu systems, installed using ubuntu installers, with latest ubuntu kernel there are no issues at all.
please open a new bug report, if you have issues with your systems.
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
