Bug description

Describe the issue, or paste the full error encountered here.

When running "make dkms" on Proxmox host I get the following output:

Building module:
cleaning build area...
'make' DKMS_KERNEL_VERSION=5.11.7-1-pve....(bad exit status: 2)
Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 5.11.7-1-pve (x86_64)
Consult /var/lib/dkms/iomemory-vsl/5.11.7-1-ecc66f1/build/make.log for more information.
make[1]: *** [Makefile:119: dkms] Error 10
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/temp/iomemory-vsl/root/usr/src/iomemory-vsl-3.2.16'
make: *** [Makefile:8: dkms] Error 2

How to reproduce

What are the steps to reproduce the reported issue.

git clone https://github.com/snuf/iomemory-vsl.git
cd iomemory-vsl
git checkout v5.12.1
make dkms 

** poof, broken token **

Possible solution

Is a solution know, or type any plausible suggestions here, if none leave clear.

@mtmongoose thanks for the report, can you add the output of /var/lib/dkms/iomemory-vsl/5.11.7-1-ecc66f1/build/make.log ?

Well thank you. @snuf for this project. I just realized I just left the title of this issue "Bug", sorry about that. Below is the output of /var/lib/dkms/iomemory-vsl/5.11.7-1-ecc66f1/build/make.log.

Answer 3 · 2021-05-07T21:32:31.000Z

@mtmongoose welcome and no problem!

This is the same issue as RemixVSL/iomemory-vsl4#29, it seems like proxmox is not nice with its kernel headers/tools and updates. Please have a look at that report and let me know if it helps you?

Answer 4 · 2021-05-07T21:56:48.000Z

I read through the thread and I agree that I'm probably missing some bits for compiling the kernel, but I don't that I can figure out what I'm missing easily on my own.

I performed a clean checkout as you advised in the other thread.
Then ran verified I wasn't in the wrong branch.
git branch -v output below:

* (HEAD detached at v5.12.1) ecc66f1 Update README.md master 5304dea Update README.md

Then I tried tried "make module".
make module output is below:

Answer 5 · 2021-05-07T22:00:58.000Z

@nhidog's last comment in the bug has the answer:

cp /usr/src/linux-headers-5.11.7-1-pve/scripts/module.lds.S /usr/src/linux-headers-5.11.7-1-pve/scripts/module.lds

Once you've copied this before building you should be ok.

Answer 6 · 2021-05-07T22:01:51.000Z

I tried that. I'll try again though, should have put that in my previous comment.

Answer 7 · 2021-05-07T22:03:37.000Z

@mtmongoose the more you tell me the more I know and the easier it is to help :)

Answer 8 · 2021-05-07T22:13:20.000Z

There's no doubt about that and I do appreciate your help. I'll be more clear going forward :-)

I removed the cloned project:
rm -r iomemory-vsl/

I cp the file as identified:
cp /usr/src/linux-headers-5.11.7-1-pve/scripts/module.lds.S /usr/src/linux-headers-5.11.7-1-pve/scripts/module.lds

Cloned the project again and checked out release v5.12.1:
git clone https://github.com/snuf/iomemory-vsl
cd iomemory-vsl/
git checkout v5.12.1

Then tried to build via:
make module

And it looks to me like I get the same output as last time.

Answer 9 · 2021-05-07T22:19:20.000Z

yeah the output tells me that the header files are not found/used correctly. Can you go to the /home/temp/iomemory-vsl/root/usr/src/iomemory-vsl-3.2.16/kfio_config/KFIOC_X_PROC_CREATE_DATA_WANTS_PROC_OPS dir and type make and get the output from that?

Answer 10 · 2021-05-07T22:49:46.000Z

Below is the output from make. I'm trying to wrap my head around it. Looks like this step in the build is creating an error in kfioc_test.ko on line 29. I'm going to have a look at that file and see if I can figure out what's causing the error:

Answer 11 · 2021-05-07T22:53:23.000Z

@mtmongoose there is something wrong with the scripts/module.lds file in your headers, that is what it's complaining about:

ld:scripts/module.lds:29: ignoring invalid character `#' in expression
ld:scripts/module.lds:29: syntax error

is the giveaway for this. Seems like the file that did work in the other case is not working for you and there is something wrong with it. If I look at my files I can see that the files are different:

So you might want to try and remove line 29 from that file providing yours look similar.

Remove last line the include then try to compile

Answer 13 · 2021-05-07T23:16:07.000Z

I owe you. Running diff -y /usr/src/linux-headers-5.11.7-1-pve/scripts/module.lds.S /usr/src/linux-headers-5.11.7-1-pve/scripts/module.lds showed that my files were identical. I removed the last line "#include <asm/module.lds.h>" and cloned the project again the make dkms ran successfully.

@nhidog @mtmongoose you might want to file a bug with proxmox for this :)
