[Bug 1044819] New: /etc/issue and login prompt repeating on serial console
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1044819 Bug ID: 1044819 Summary: /etc/issue and login prompt repeating on serial console Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: Other OS: SUSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: afaerber@suse.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Probably as long as /etc/issue handling has been converted to issue-generators a few months ago, I am seeing banner and login prompt repeat every few minutes on serial, such as:
Welcome to openSUSE Tumbleweed 20170617 - Kernel 4.12.0-rc5-1.g270295f-lpae (ttyAMA0).
eth0: <IPv4> <IPv6>
raspi2 login: Welcome to openSUSE Tumbleweed 20170617 - Kernel 4.12.0-rc5-1.g270295f-lpae (ttyAMA0).
eth0: <IPv4> <IPv6>
raspi2 login: [...]
(with <IPv4> and <IPv6> obviously being placeholders, contents doesn't change) This behavior has been observed across armv6hl, armv7hl and aarch64 boards. Expected would be to get this output only once, as previously, and then once the user hits ENTER at the serial prompt. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Reload now happens only if the login message really changes. There is still one thing to do: The implementation is sub-optimal. It uses very poor POSIX getifaddrs(), which does not have features login would need. So login evaluates the whole MOTD text, compares it with the previous one and decides whether to reload. In networks with IPv6 RaS, this evaluation is triggered whenever IPv6 RaS is sent. The whole login should be migrated to netlink. It would get rid the need of the issue-generator, decrease number of login wakeups, and additionally it would make possible to fix the bug 1139983. Marking this bug as resolved. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
