[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1323882] Re: Dell M4800 kernel crashes every few hours
Why is this assigned to bcmwl? OP problem seems to be the kernel thinking that no RAM is available (making OOM Killer kill everything). Even if 32GB RAM are present the kernel command line has all these weird options: "irqpoll maxcpus=1 nousb memmap=exactmap memmap=577K@4K memmap=130476K@737280K elfcorehdr=867756K memmap=28K#3121240K memmap=396K#3292788K memmap=1068K#3316692K" Question is: who put that there any why?

Just a quick note that this is caused by some change between kernel 3.14 (i.e. bcmwl compiled fine on 3.14) and 3.15 (here it fails to compile).

@Brian, Sorry that after all your efforts you ended up going to the "easy" (though questionable) solution. Since there is no reason to expect Broadcom to fully GPL the driver, I guess the only solution (besides using the in-kernel driver, which to me -- bcm4313 -- is still a no-go) would be patching modpost.c (which -- theorically -- solves the compilation issue, but perhaps not the run-time (modprobe) issue).

Interesting :) If the module builds OK but doesn't load, you could try loading it manually "modprobe wl" and see if any errors show up on the console/syslog/dmesg. AFAIK the patch you've applied adds support for 3.8 as well as for lowlatency. If this works OK you could try isolating the lowlatency part, as the patch for 3.8 (and 3.9 and 3.10) is already in the Ubuntu package (I'm using 6.30.223 with kernel 3.10 under Ubuntu 12.04 and it works great).

@Tommy, I am using 64-bit, and actually am using kernel 3.10 with precise.

Bug expired because somebody decides "this is probably irrelevant", based on the false assumption that kernel 3.8 is in precise now.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1130037] Re: regression-update kernel 3.5.0-24 alx suspend/resume
Christopher, "that's not how linux (Ubuntu) bug reporting works." I know. Ubuntu, and unfortunately most open-source, bug reporting works like this: 1. try to find irrelevant formal problems with the report itself. 2. if OP still there, ask user to update kernel. 2.5 do this 4 or 5 times to give OP sufficient time to give up. 3. if OP still there, wait until new distribution release 3.5 now ask OP to update 4. if still there, ask OP to do kernel bisect or some other random task he won't be able to complete. 5. if still there, close bug anyway because it is planned to remove this feature some day. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1130037 Title: regression-update kernel 3.5.0-24 alx suspend/resume Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: My laptop has a AR8162 ethernet controller.

Hi all, IANAL but I think it should be no problem to link non-GPL with GPL symbols. For some reason kernel's modpost checks for this and aborts. Modifying the license of a module would certainly be illegal. Modifying modpost.c to remove that check (s/fatal/warn/) would just produce a warning but still allow the linking.
