On a recently installed F32, in my dnf.conf I've
installonly_limit=3
As expected, I maintain 3 installed/selectable 'kernel' pkg versions
Atm, after yesterday's 5.7.6, update
rpm -qa | grep kernel-5
kernel-5.6.6-300.fc32.x86_64
kernel-5.6.19-300.fc32.x86_64
That also appears to apply to 'kernel-modules' pkg,
grep kernel-modules-5
kernel-modules-5.7.6-201.fc32.x86_64
kernel-modules-5.6.19-300.fc32.x86_64
kernel-modules-5.6.6-300.fc32.x86_64
which makes it possible to load/operate on modules from each kernel version's
respective modules tree
It apparently does NOT apply to 'kernel-modules-extra' pkg,
rpm -qa | grep kernel-modules-extra-5
kernel-modules-extra-5.7.6-201.fc32.x86_64
which contains some of the mods referenced in kernel's /boot/config-...
E.g., in my current interest,
find /usr/lib/modules | egrep "tcp_bbr|tcp_htcp"
/usr/lib/modules/5.7.6-201.fc32.x86_64/extra/net/ipv4/tcp_htcp.ko.xz
/usr/lib/modules/5.7.6-201.fc32.x86_64/kernel/net/ipv4/tcp_bbr.ko.xz
/usr/lib/modules/5.6.19-300.fc32.x86_64/kernel/net/ipv4/tcp_bbr.ko.xz
/usr/lib/modules/5.6.6-300.fc32.x86_64/kernel/net/ipv4/tcp_bbr.ko.xz
Seems that install/upgrade of a newer/latest kernel, the older-versioned pkgs
-- and the included mods -- from 'kernel-modules-extra' get _removed_.
That's causing issues for any dependencies on those modules.
Is it possible to add/config 'multiversion' support for 'kernel-modules-extra'
pkg as well?
"installonly_limit=3" in dns.conf appears to be not sufficient.
