[systemd-devel] timing issue in mounting systemd filesystems

[Giacinto Cifelli]

Hi Lennart,

thank you for your help.  I found the issue, it is a mismatch between
the compiler or libc used for the kernel and the systemd/mount
executables.
Difference not declared, I managed by accident to find the right cross-compiler.

it is an out-of-tree debian 11, for VisionFive2, a 4-core riscv (with
isa rv64imafdc).
It uses:

systemd 252 (252.4-1)
+PAM +AUDIT +SELINUX +APPARMOR +IMA +SMACK +SECCOMP +GCRYPT -GNUTLS
+OPENSSL +ACL +BLKID +CURL +ELFUTILS +FIDO2 +IDN2 -IDN +IPTC +KMOD
+LIBCRYPTSETUP +LIBFDISK +PCRE2 -PWQUALITY +P11KIT +QRENCODE +TPM2
+BZIP2 +LZ4 +XZ +ZLIB +ZSTD -BPF_FRAMEWORK -XKBCOMMON +UTMP +SYSVINIT
