[Bug 922201] New: rmmod confused by built-ins
by Red Hat Bugzilla 16 Jun '14

16 Jun '14

Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=922201 Bug ID: 922201 Summary: rmmod confused by built-ins Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Version: 7.0 Component: kmod Severity: medium Priority: medium Assignee: kay(a)redhat.com Reporter: bmr(a)redhat.com CC: gansalmon(a)Gmail.com, itamar(a)ispbrasil.com.br, jonathan(a)jonmasters.org, kernel-maint(a)redhat.com, kmod-maint(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, madhu.chinakonda(a)gmail.com, msivak(a)redhat.com Depends On: 922187 +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #922187 +++ Description of problem: Attempting to rmmod something that's not actually built as a module now gives a slightly confusing error: # rmmod loop libkmod: kmod_module_get_holders: could not open '/sys/module/loop/holders': No such file or directory Error: Module loop is in use Previously rmmod from module-init-tools gave a still vague but better "not found" message: # rmmod ext2 ERROR: Module ext2 does not exist in /proc/modules Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kmod-* How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. compile something that can be built as a module as a built-in 2. rmmod $thing Actual results: # rmmod loop libkmod: kmod_module_get_holders: could not open '/sys/module/loop/holders': No such file or directory Error: Module loop is in use Which isn't really true: it's not in use, it's simply built in to vmlinuz so unloading makes no sense. Expected results: modprobe does the right thing: # modprobe -r loop FATAL: Module loop is builtin. Additional info: I know rmmod is the low-level tool and users should be using modprobe -r (or just not messing with this in the first place.. :) but knowledge of modprobe to load and rmmod to unload seems much more widespread among admins and the current behaviour looks at first like a kernel bug (if you didn't realise that there are paths directories missing in /sys/modules/$thing and the module name isn't present in /proc/modules you might think some refcount was broken etc.). --- Additional comment from Bryn M. Reeves on 2013-03-15 13:12:04 EDT --- Error is slightly different from 0:12-1.fc18 but same basic problem: # rmmod loop rmmod: ERROR: could not open '/sys/module/loop/holders': No such file or directory rmmod: ERROR: Module loop is in use -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 993071] New: nvidia-kmod.spec error

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=993071 Bug ID: 993071 Summary: nvidia-kmod.spec error Product: Fedora Version: 19 Component: kmod Assignee: kmod-maint(a)lists.fedoraproject.org Reporter: sean-clancy(a)gmx.net QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org CC: jonathan(a)jonmasters.org, kmod-maint(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, msivak(a)redhat.com, vpavlin(a)redhat.com Created attachment 782867 --> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=782867&action=edit patch to partially fix the problem akmod fails for a custom (vanialla) kernel if trying to build the nvidia module. command to build: akmodsbuild -k $kernel_version /usr/src/akmods/nvidia-kmod.latest version: akmod-nvidia 319.32-2.fc19 kernel 3.10 vanilla (built with separat output directory O= ) problem: in the file nvidia-kmod.spec (from the rpm /usr/src/akmods/nvidia-kmod-319.32-2.fc19.src.rpm): ${kernel_version##*___} points to the kernel build directory instead of the source. fix: the supplied patch fixes it, if SYSSRC is manually exported: export SYSSRC="$kernel_source_dir" akmodsbuild -k $kernel_version /usr/src/akmods/nvidia-kmod.latest so the patch is only a partial fix, SYSSRC= should also be added to the .spec file. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
