Package: nfs-kernel-server Version: 1:1.2.1-3 Severity: important Tags: patch
The current ‘/etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server’ program contains the
following test:
=====
# See if our running kernel supports the NFS kernel server
if [ -f /proc/kallsyms ] && ! grep -Eq "[[:space:]]nfsd_open([[:space:]]|$)"
/proc/kallsyms; then
log_warning_msg "Not starting $DESC: no support in current kernel."
exit 0
fi
=====
That test fails on this machine:
=====
$ grep -E "[[:space:]]nfsd_open([[:space:]]|$)" /proc/kallsyms
$ echo $?
1
=====
Hence this package is now unusable on powerpc64 machines.
This is because the symbols are present on powerpc64, but named differently.
The following test succeeds:
=====
$ grep -E "[[:space:]]\.nfsd_open([[:space:]]|$)" /proc/kallsyms
d000000002affd54 t .nfsd_open [nfsd]
$ echo $?
0
=====
The following patch allows the test to include these symbols:
