This is mostly intended for k= ernel developers to speedup testing their kernel modules without having t= o load the dependencies manually or override the module in /usr/lib/modules/. Now it's possible to do: # modprobe ./drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915.ko As long as the dependencies didn't change, this should do the right= thing - Use in-kernel decompression if available. This will check the runti= me support in the kernel for decompressing modules and use it through finit_mo= dule(). Previously kmod would fallback to the older init_module() when using compressed modules since there wasn't a way to instruct the kernel = to uncompress it on load or check if the kernel supported it or not. This requires a recent kernel (>=3D 6.4) to have that support and in-kernel decompression properly working in the kernel. - Make modprobe fallback to syslog when stderr is not available, as w= as documented in the man page, but not implemented - Better explaing `modprobe -r` and how it differentiates from rmmod - depmod learned a `-o ` option to allow using a separate output directory. With this, it's possible to split the output files from the ones used as input from the kernel build system - Add compat with glibc >=3D 2.32.9000 that dropped __xstat - Improve testsuite to stop skipping tests when sysconfdir is somethi= ng other than /etc - Build system improvements and updates - Change a few return codes from -ENOENT to -ENODATA to avoid confusi= ng output in depmod when the module itself lacks a particular ELF section due= to e.g. CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=3Dn in the kernel. - Bug Fixes - Fix testsuite using uninitialized memory when testing module removal with --wait - Fix testsuite not correctly overriding the stat syscall on 32-bit platforms. For most architectures this was harmless, but for MIPS it was causing some tests to fail. - Fix handling unknown signature algorithm - Fix linking with a static liblzma, libzstd or zlib - Fix memory leak when removing module holders - Fix out-of-bounds access when using very long paths as argument to = rmmod - Fix warnings reported by UBSan Signed-off-by: Peter M=C3=BCller --- config/rootfiles/common/kmod | 2 +- lfs/kmod | 6 +++--- 2 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/config/rootfiles/common/kmod b/config/rootfiles/common/kmod index 78971ea22..1a0432169 100644 --- a/config/rootfiles/common/kmod +++ b/config/rootfiles/common/kmod @@ -9,6 +9,6 @@ sbin/rmmod #usr/lib/libkmod.la #usr/lib/libkmod.so usr/lib/libkmod.so.2 -usr/lib/libkmod.so.2.4.0 +usr/lib/libkmod.so.2.4.1 #usr/lib/pkgconfig/libkmod.pc #usr/share/bash-completion/completions/kmod diff --git a/lfs/kmod b/lfs/kmod index 89e196252..643573d33 100644 --- a/lfs/kmod +++ b/lfs/kmod @@ -1,7 +1,7 @@ ############################################################################= ### # = # # IPFire.org - A linux based firewall = # -# Copyright (C) 2007-2022 IPFire Team = # +# Copyright (C) 2007-2024 IPFire Team = # # = # # This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify = # # it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by = # @@ -24,7 +24,7 @@ =20 include Config =20 -VER =3D 30 +VER =3D 31 =20 THISAPP =3D kmod-$(VER) DL_FILE =3D $(THISAPP).tar.xz @@ -40,7 +40,7 @@ objects =3D $(DL_FILE) =20 $(DL_FILE) =3D $(DL_FROM)/$(DL_FILE) =20 -$(DL_FILE)_BLAKE2 =3D c5cb690dbb8fad66ac603648ff330794b417ff2fa2f8f61b6e9cb7= 6dab93f984128b3d83a826203f39f3fb94f174f0db7395db6a47e52e8b7c561486f9d00778 +$(DL_FILE)_BLAKE2 =3D 0dc8572da570315cf0aadd87fa7e83d0f88dea91c8566749e6f300= 4f9a6df916dce337ca99ea5929d41f45b408c1e3effa50f9d24615d7fa28688150a5ce91cf =20 install : $(TARGET) =20 --=20 2.35.3 --===============6004405707991563039==--
