Title:
zfs-linux 0.8.3-1ubuntu12.4 ADT test failure with linux-hwe-5.8
5.8.0-25.26~20.04.1
Status in zfs-linux package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in zfs-linux source package in Focal:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
[SRU Justification]
Impact: When attempting to compile the zfs-dkms module on a 5.8 kernel
the module fails to properly configure the build. The kernel driver
part of zfs-linux is only prepared to handle the kernels it released
with. For Ubuntu kernels the zfs module is build based on the zfs-dkms
that is current for the series the kernel originates from (so Groovy
for 5.8). And this should be the encouraged way to do this.
Fix: Add a limitation to the dkms package to only build for supported
kernels. This causes the whole build/install to be skipped on 5.8
rather than to fail.
Testcase: dkms install runs for 5.4 and 5.8 in Focal. For the 5.8 kernel this
should result in:
Building initial module for 5.8.0-25-generic
Error! The /var/lib/dkms/zfs/0.8.3/5.8.0-25-generic/x86_64/dkms.conf for
module zfs includes a BUILD_EXCLUSIVE directive which
does not match this kernel/arch. This indicates that it should not be built.
Skipped.
Regression Potential: Since the module fails to compile for the newer
kernel there should be nothing that can regress.
