greenleafI am unable to correctly build a module for the 5.11.7 kernel from here: https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v5.11.7/. Getting "no symbol version for module_layout" which apparently has to do with VERMAGIC mismatch.07:04
greenleafmodinfo says: vermagic:       5.11.7-051107-generic+ SMP mod_unload modversions07:05
greenleafuname says: 5.11.7-051107-generic #202103171746 SMP07:05
greenleafwhich looks the same to me, except for the "+" sign at the end of the modinfo output. modyle VERMAGIC seems to be inherited from the Makefile, which I modified myself and it does not contain the "+" 07:06
greenleafok, i figured out how to get rid of the + by overriding with LOCALVERSION. Now the strings look identical but modprobe still complains.07:33

ubot5uschcld: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its official !flavors, please report it using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs.19:22
uschcldGood! I submitted this bug to bugs.launchpad.net/ August 2020. It expired with nothing done.19:22
tomreynthat's if oyu think it's ubuntu specific, or you want to report it against ubuntu as a first step19:22
tomreynit will expire when there is information missing19:23
uschcldIt is actuallu a kernel bug, not specific to anu distro.19:23
tomreyngot the bug # ?19:23
uschcldBug #189176819:23
ubot5bug 1891768 in linux (Ubuntu) "hfs+ filesystems fail reading / writing large files" [Undecided,Expired] https://launchpad.net/bugs/189176819:23
uschcldi followed up on https://answers.launchpad.net/ no response there, except one person also had the bug19:25
uschcldI suspect I missed some detail, but do not know what to do to correct it.19:26
tomreynuschcld: so the bug you reported was handled by humans in addition to the bot, and you provided all the info requested. however, unfortunately, it was not possible to identify an error condition when the logs you submitted were (manually) reviewed.19:27
uschcldDid anyone try to duplicate the bug? It fails every time.19:28
uschcldI have listed some tested kernels that work and fail here.  https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+question/69577019:29
tomreynit seems you didn't do just enough to enable the kernel dev's to reproduce the issue, so the bug report expired automatically.19:29
tomreyn(i'm referring to the bug report)19:30
uschcldMore details to reproduce the bug in the answers.launchpad.com post19:30
tomreynso answers.launchpad.com is, just like irc, mostly a community/self-support tool19:33
tomreynbugs.launchpad.net is the bug tracker. since you now have condensed it down to a reproducible recipe, i suggest posting a new bug report where you provide the steps to reproduce on the latest LTS release19:34
uschcldthanks. Should I update the original bug report or make a new one?19:35
tomreyni'd report a new one19:38
tomreynyou can always link to the old one19:39
tomreynbut make sure all info needed to reproduce is in the new report19:39
tomreynrun    ubuntu-bug linux    on your 20.04 LTS system to get started19:40
uschcldThanks!19:41
