Research direction

Start by comparing the Raspberry Pi kernel versions 1.20200601-1 and 1.20200717-1 and reproducing the DRBD startup failure reported as "create res: r0:failed(new-resource:20)". Done means identifying the kernel change that breaks the two-node DRBD setup and confirming a fix or clear regression report.

Description

I just upgraded a working two node raspberry pi drbd cluster from kernel 1.20200601-1 to 1.20200717-1. The boot loader also went up to the same version. The drbd service now fails to mount the device. The DRBD service throws this error on startup "create res: r0:failed(new-resource:20)".
Any assistance gratefully received.
