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. --- Testing failed on: amd64: https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-focal/focal/amd64/z/zfs-linux/20201016_104632_e52aa@/log.gz arm64: https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-focal/focal/arm64/z/zfs-linux/20201016_144759_7735c@/log.gz ppc64el: https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-focal/focal/ppc64el/z/zfs-linux/20201016_111820_ceeb8@/log.gz s390x: https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-focal/focal/s390x/z/zfs-linux/20201016_082202_1adb7@/log.gz To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zfs-linux/+bug/1902701/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
