I hadn't updated my Raspberry Pi 4B running -current for a couple of
months, so I booted the latest snapshot (Jan 27). It hangs when it
does the "growfs" step, expanding the root partition and fs to fill
the SD card. When it hangs, it prints this every 10 seconds or so:
random: randomdev_wait_until_seeded unblock wait
I waited several minutes the first time, and 20 minutes on another trial.
If I hold down the return key on the serial console, the device unblocks
and the boot continues. This only happens on the initial boot, when the
growfs script runs. The hang happens on a Raspberry Pi 3B+ as well.
It also happens with the two-week-old snapshot, but not the Nov 25
snapshot. The program that's running during the hang is awk, doing
a read, according to ^T; the script uses awk to parse output from
mount, glabel, and sysctl.
It sounds like there is no source of entropy at this point, and there
was no cache. I don't see any changes to the random device since this
was working. Does anyone have a guess what to look for? A bisect
would be rather laborious, building a modified SD card each time,
even if just testing kernel changes. Any other suggestions?
An excerpt from /var/log/messages during this time is appended.
