Hi anbe,
Do you still have any idea about the way to reproduce this failure?
I've added an autopkgtest script to zfs to test the dkms build
against linux-headers-$(dpkg --print-architecture), and it seems
that I cannot reproduce this issue in a clean and minimal chroot.
Ben,
I'm pretty sure you're not having the same problem as the original
person. They were reporting getting a Perl error out of the
enum-extract script, you're reporting that it's passing the wrong
location to the enum-extract script to try and find the header.
- Rich
This script fails because the include file passed to it doesn't exist:
cd /var/lib/dkms/zfs/0.7.12/build
sudo ./scripts/enum-extract.pl node_stat_item
/lib/modules/4.19.0-1-amd64/build/include/linux/mmzone.h
Can't open /lib/modules/4.19.0-1-amd64/build/include/linux/mmzone.h: No
such file or
So, yes, the workaround Ben posted will work, but that's fixing the
symptom, not the problem.
I'd still like to know what the enum-extract.pl script says for you
(Ben) if you try invoking it (or what's in config.log when it fails).
Because the problem with the common/amd64 headers location
The issue is that Debian delivers Linux headers in two directories, each of
which is linked under /lib/modules. On my system, with 4.14, these symlinks
are under /lib/modules/4.14.0-3-amd64:
cd /lib/modules/4.14.0-3-amd64
ls -ld build source
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 37 Jan 25 2018 build ->
I checked the Linux headers and each kernel defines NR_FILE_PAGES as a
member of the node_stat_item enumeration in include/linux/mmzone.h. I'm
running on MX-17, which is derived from Debian Stable, and the headers are
in:
/usr/src/linux-headers-4.14.0-3-common
(using 4.14.0-3 as my current
I'm also hitting this bug so I've collected the data requested by Rich:

Well, the PUMPIN MUD just means enum-extract.pl didn't do the right thing.
