I verified the part that I could inside a noble VM: ``` $ ls -l /boot/initrd.img-6.8.0-139-generic -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 74940544 Sep 4 10:33 /boot/initrd.img-6.8.0-139-generic $ lsinitramfs /boot/initrd.img-6.8.0-139-generic | grep xhci-pci-renesas usr/lib/modules/6.8.0-139-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/host/xhci-pci-renesas.ko.zst $ sudo apt install linux-image-generic-hwe-24.04 $ ls -l /boot/initrd.img-7.0.0-31-generic -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 81384502 Sep 8 19:25 /boot/initrd.img-7.0.0-31-generic $ lsinitramfs /boot/initrd.img-7.0.0-31-generic | grep xhci-pci-renesas $ sudo apt install -y -t noble-proposed initramfs-tools $ dpkg -s initramfs-tools-core | grep ^Version Version: 0.142ubuntu25.9 $ ls -l /boot/initrd.img-7.0.0-31-generic -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 81391082 Sep 8 19:26 /boot/initrd.img-7.0.0-31-generic $ lsinitramfs /boot/initrd.img-7.0.0-31-generic | grep xhci-pci-renesas usr/lib/modules/7.0.0-31-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/host/xhci-pci-renesas.ko.zst ```
Result: linux 6.8 had xhci-pci-renesas included, but linux 7.0 from HWE stack did not. So that is a regression. initramfs-tools from proposed correctly includes xhci-pci-renesas with linux 7.0. The image size for linux 7.0 grew 6.5 kB (from 81384502 to 81391082 bytes). This size increase is nothing compared to the size increase of 6.45 MB when going from 6.8 to 7.0. Help needed: Can someone with that relevant hardware test this server- live image mentioned by Skia in the previous comment? It must be tested ASAP to finish verifying this SRU and to get it included in the 24.04.5 image. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2126559 Title: [SRU] Missing usb/host/xhci-pci-renesas kernel module in the initramfs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/2126559/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
