Description Guillaume GARDET 2023-09-13 08:01:04 UTC

## Observation

openQA test in scenario opensuse-Tumbleweed-JeOS-for-RPi-aarch64-jeos@RPi3 fails in
[textinfo](https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/3568327/modules/textinfo/steps/9)

openQA fails in textinfo test on RPi2, 3 and 4 due to 'df -h' failing on /sys/firmware/efi/efivars:

Comment 1 Guillaume GARDET 2023-09-13 09:02:57 UTC

It seems to be similar to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/efivar/+bug/2034705 which should be fixed with this patch:
https://launchpadlibrarian.net/686144065/0001-efivarfs-fix-statfs-on-efivarfs.patch

Comment 2 Guillaume GARDET 2023-09-19 07:37:37 UTC

The fix is part of 6.6-rc2.

It is not part of 6.5.3, so not sure if there is a plan to merge it to stable 6.5.x.

Comment 3 Takashi Iwai 2023-09-19 08:01:58 UTC

Thanks for the info.  I'll backport the upstream commit 79b83606abc778aa3cbee535b362ce905d0b9448 to stable branch.
(currently not able to push due to internal server problem.)
