Bug Description
[impact]
autopkgtest failure when running with 5.8 kernel, if systemd is built with earlier kernel (e.g. 5.4)
[test case]
see autopkgtest results, e.g. links in original description below
[regression potential]
as this only fixes a test case, any regression would likely result in an incorrectly passing, or incorrectly failing, test.
[scope]
this is needed for b/f/g/h.
this bug was introduced by upstream commit 23cc81e7c22 which first added testing for 'invalid' cap numbers, but incorrectly using capability_
this is fixed upstream by commit ebc815cd1c647fa
Also note that even though the 5.8 kernel is not planned to be released for Bionic, this test also runs at build time, and since the LP build farm builds inside chroots, if the build farm ever moved up to Focal with a 5.8 kernel, the build of systemd for Bionic would start failing (since it would still be building using the older kernel headers, inside the chroot), so this does need to be fixed in Bionic systemd as well.
[other info]
there is a non-test bug related to this in bug 1905245
[original description]
Testing failed on:
amd64: https:/
arm64: https:/
ppc64el: https:/
s390x: https:/
The failing testcases are:
- root-unittests
Assertion 'capability_
ion test_capability
FAIL: test-cap-list (code: 134)
- upstream
TEST-24-UNIT-TESTS:
--- test-cap-list begin ---
Assertion 'capability_
ion test_capability
--- test-cap-list end ---
Both seem to be failing with the same assertion.
These tests are successful on Focal with linux 5.4, therefore they would regress when upgrading the kernel from 5.4 to 5.8.
