The 'Before' dependency between NM-dispatcher and NM causes a deadlock when stopping the NM service. When terminating, NM wants to D-Bus activate NM-dispatcher to synchronously handle pre-down events; but NM-dispatcher start is ordered after NM shutdown due to the following behavior described in systemd.unit(5) man page: Given two units with any ordering dependency between them, if one unit is shut down and the other is started up, the shutdown is ordered before the start-up. It doesn't matter if the ordering dependency is After= or Before=, in this case. It also doesn't matter which of the two is shut down, as long as one is shut down and the other is started up; the shutdown is ordered before the start-up in all cases. So, NM is waiting NM-dispatcher to start and NM-dispatcher is queued by systemd, waiting that NM is stopped. The result is a 90 seconds delay, after which systemd kills NM and continues. The dependency was added so that during shutdown NM-dispatcher would be stopped after NM. I don't think it worked as expected because NM-dispatcher is not supposed to be active most of the times, and so it doesn't need a dependency that delays its stop after NM. This reverts commit |
