--- Begin Message ---Package: linux-image-amd64 Version: 5.10.46-5 Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-Cc: m.war...@outlook.com Dear Maintainer, *** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? I tried to boot debian inside the firecracker microvm and saw that initramfs could not find the root disk. It turns out that virtio_mmio.ko is not compiled with the VIRTIO_MMIO_CMDLINE_DEVICES option. Thus requiring a kernel rebuild to be able to boot debian. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Rebuilding the kernel with the extra option worked * What was the outcome of this action? My rebuild kernel worked. * What outcome did you expect instead? I hoped to be able to boot debian after including the right kernel modules inside initramfs *** End of the template - remove these template lines *** -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.0 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-8-amd64 (SMP w/3 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=nl_NL.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=nl_NL.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages linux-image-amd64 depends on: ii linux-image-5.10.0-8-amd64 5.10.46-5 linux-image-amd64 recommends no packages. linux-image-amd64 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information

--- Begin Message ---Hi This bug was filed for a (very) old kernel or the bug is old itself without resolution. Maybe it was for a feature enablement which nobody acted on. We are sorry we were not able to timely deal with this issue. There are many open bugs for the src:linux package and thus we are closing older bugs where it's unclear if they still occur in newer versions and are still relevant to the reporter. For an overview see: https://bugs.debian.org/src:linux . If you can reproduce your issue with - the current version in unstable/testing - the latest kernel from backports or, if it was a feature addition/wishlist and still consider it relevant, then: Please reopen the bug, see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control for details. Please try to provide as much fresh details including kernel logs where relevant. In particular were an issue is coupled with specific hardware we might ask you to do additional debugging on your side as the owner of the hardware. Regards, Salvatore
