Does it complete successfully with dracut --nohardlink or do_hardlink="no" in dracut.conf?

It would be useful to know if this still occurs with the older versions, you can temporarily force the downgrade with --ignore-world or if that doesn't work --nodeps. The upstream changes between the versions are small, so if this does turn out to work with the older versions we can probably find out which commit is responsible relatively easily.
Another thing to try is 'dracut --stdlog 6' which should make it more verbose in this phase according to https://github.com/dracutdevs/dracut/issues/2372
Created attachment 883494 [details] Dracut without --nohardlink The only way I got dracut to work was with the --nohardlink argument as suggested, and this worked with both 060_pre20240104 and 060_pre20231030-r2 versions of dracut. Reverting to 060_pre20231030-r2 did not work with when it was defaulting to doing hardlinks. The debug argument of --stdlog 6 made no difference on the console output. Also, the md5sums of the to two versions of UKI kernels built with both dracuts differed but file sizes are showing to be the same.
(In reply to MrSnivvel from comment #9) > Also, the md5sums of the to two versions of UKI kernels built with both > dracuts differed but file sizes are showing to be the same. By default the initramfs (and therefore the UKI) are not reproducible, as I understand it this has to do with timestamps and maybe other things too. If you want dracut to do a little extra work and make it reproducible, then you want to set "reproducible=yes" in dracut.conf and/or add the --reproducible argument. About your hardlinking problem, I think you should report this upstream because I have no clue what might be causing this.
Note that dracut simply calls the "hardlink" command as provided by util-linux. If there's a bug here, it is probably in util-linux, not dracut.
Please provide the version of util-linux. Also, if you can create a tarball of the dracut temp directory, I can see if I can reproduce the issue locally.
Another thing to try: run the "hardlink" command on the dracut temp dir. If it stalls, retry using "strace" to see what it is doing at the time of the stall.

I see there's now a -r1 bump in the tree right now so might try with that after seeing what changed for it. I'll see about getting the rest of the things you asked about tonight.

Unfortunately, I'm unable to reproduce the issue by running hardlink after unpacking that tarball.
