Slow Shutdown/Reboot

Hello!

Since some days I'm experiencing very slow shutdowns and reboots. Approximately every second time. No message is printed, just the cursor blinking. When I'm pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del, Esc or the power button impatiently [sic!] I can sometimes read this message:

systemd-shutdown[1]: Waiting for process: dbus-daemon, systmed, rngd, gpg-agent

The listed processes change every time. I can turn off the machine forcefully. With a lot patience I've noticed that the system finally seems to finish and shuts off or reboot. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Thank you

PS: It is a ThinkPad X220, I've also fiddled around and replaced rngd (no hardware rng) by haveged but this didn't changed anything.

Hi.

I'm on newer hardware, but the same thing started happening here after installing the systemd 247 update.

Possibly related upstream bug report.

I'd love to try and revert the commit that's mentioned, but don't currently have the time

Hm. That shouldn't affect me. I can see that "user@1000.service" timed out after two minutes during shutdown.

// edit
I've reported the issues to upstream:

I fixed it with this one line simple addition: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-se … ote_978036.
