uploaded in groovy and focal, will need liblzf unblock from new.
** Changed in: virtualbox (Ubuntu Groovy)
Status: Confirmed => In Progress
** Description changed:
[SRU Justification]
Impact: The build of virtualbox-dkms modules fails in 20.04/Focal when the
5.8 based HWE kernel is installed.
* Rename of mm->mmap_sem into mmap_lock
* Modified API to read/write CR4
* Modified API to access virtual memory areas
Fix: Picking 2 patches from a later version of virtualbox and adjusting
the 3rd to match what upstream virtualbox settled in the end with (that
enables some code only for kernels between 2.6.23 and 5.8, the compile
of virtualbox-dkms succeeds on 5.8.
Testcase: dkms install -m virtualbox -v 6.1.10 -k 5.8.0-*-generic
- Regression Potential: This could show runtime issues when used on the
- 5.8 kernel but that did not work at all with the Focal version of
- virtualbox. The code generated for older kernels is unchanged.
+ [ Other info ]
+ * for groovy, other than fixing this issue, we finally sync 6.1.16 everywhere
(due to late upload before release, this change was suitable to a 0 day SRU but
I didn't proceed, so now its a good timing to fix it)
+ * for focal, it needs liblzf, in the system, I removed the embedded version
now that the archive has a packaged one
