Description of problem: By updating only the dracut package to the version 55-2, I experienced a slowdown of more than a minute during the boot process; from the "systemd-analize blame" command, I found that the dracut-initqueue was taking more than a minute to run. Then, from the journal of the unit (which I got using "journalctl -xeu dracut-initqueue.service -b") I could see that a warning is popping out with the 55. I am sure that this was absent in dracut version 53-4, because by running "dnf downgrade dracut" I was prompted to install exactly the package "dracut-053-4.fc34.x86_64", and after regenerating the initrd and rebooting, it now takes 10 seconds to the unit to finish. How reproducible: install the package "dracut-055-2.fc34.x86_64" Here are the journal extracts for both versions of dracut Dracut version "dracut-053-4.fc34.x86_64", baseline: lug 01 08:41:45 thinker systemd[1]: Starting dracut initqueue hook... ░░ Subject: A start job for unit dracut-initqueue.service has begun execution ░░ Defined-By: systemd ░░ Support: https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel ░░ ░░ A start job for unit dracut-initqueue.service has begun execution. ░░ ░░ The job identifier is 50. lug 01 08:41:45 thinker dracut-initqueue[572]: Scanning devices sda3 for LVM logical volumes fedora-vg/root fedora-vg/swap lug 01 08:41:45 thinker dracut-initqueue[597]: inactive '/dev/fedora-vg/root' [80.00 GiB] inherit lug 01 08:41:45 thinker dracut-initqueue[597]: inactive '/dev/fedora-vg/home' [<149.00 GiB] inherit lug 01 08:41:45 thinker dracut-initqueue[597]: inactive '/dev/fedora-vg/swap' [<7.78 GiB] inherit lug 01 08:41:58 thinker systemd[1]: Finished dracut initqueue hook. ░░ Subject: A start job for unit dracut-initqueue.service has finished successfully ░░ Defined-By: systemd ░░ Support: https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel ░░ ░░ A start job for unit dracut-initqueue.service has finished successfully. ░░ ░░ The job identifier is 50. lug 01 08:41:59 thinker systemd[1]: dracut-initqueue.service: Deactivated successfully. ░░ Subject: Unit succeeded ░░ Defined-By: systemd ░░ Support: https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel ░░ ░░ The unit dracut-initqueue.service has successfully entered the 'dead' state. lug 01 08:41:59 thinker systemd[1]: Stopped dracut initqueue hook. ░░ Subject: A stop job for unit dracut-initqueue.service has finished ░░ Defined-By: systemd ░░ Support: https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel ░░ ░░ A stop job for unit dracut-initqueue.service has finished. ░░ ░░ The job identifier is 162 and the job result is done.
