Test Build 3) New behavior if ZFS modules are built with debug symbols
goal: show zfs debug symbols are correctly built and packaged into non-
debug & debug packages.
- test packaging
- zfs built with debug symbols
- zfs modules present in debug package
- extra modules *have* .gnu_debuglink section
Test packaging, debug symbols *enabled* in zfs-dkms:
Modules are built with debug symbols, copied to debug package directory,
and stripped before being copied into strip/non-debug package directory.
II: dkms-build installing zfs into
/home/ubuntu/dbgsym/unstable/debian/linux-image-unsigned-5.3.0-8-generic-dbgsym/usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/5.3.0-8-generic/kernel/zfs
(debug symbols)

II: dkms-build build zfs complete
The ZFS modules are now present in the debug package:
$ dpkg-deb -x linux-image-unsigned-5.3.0-8-generic-
dbgsym_5.3.0-8.9_amd64.ddeb ddeb-test-enabled
$ ls -1
ddeb-test-enabled/usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/5.3.0-8-generic/kernel/zfs/
icp.ko
spl.ko
zavl.ko
zcommon.ko
zfs.ko
zlua.ko
znvpair.ko
zunicode.ko
And now all modules in 'linux-modules' have the '.gnu_debuglink'
section:
$ dpkg-deb -x linux-modules-5.3.0-8-generic_5.3.0-8.9_amd64.deb
deb-modules
$ find deb-modules/ -name '*.ko' | while read ko; do objdump -h -j
.gnu_debuglink $ko >/dev/null 2>&1 || echo "Module without debug link '$ko'";
done
$
The build log no longer shows ZFS modules as missing debug symbols:
$ grep WARNING build.log
echo "WARNING: Missing debug symbols for module
'$module'."; \
WARNING: Missing debug symbols for module
'/lib/modules/5.3.0-8-generic/kernel/virtualbox-guest/vboxguest.ko'.
WARNING: Missing debug symbols for module
'/lib/modules/5.3.0-8-generic/kernel/virtualbox-guest/vboxsf.ko'.
$
The only modules in 'linux-modules-extra' without that continue to be
virtualbox modules:
$ dpkg-deb -x linux-modules-extra-5.3.0-8-generic_5.3.0-8.9_amd64.deb
deb-modules-extra
$ find deb-modules-extra/ -name '*.ko' | while read ko; do objdump -h
-j .gnu_debuglink $ko >/dev/null 2>&1 || echo "Module without debug link
'$ko'"; done
Module without debug link
'deb-modules-extra/lib/modules/5.3.0-8-generic/kernel/virtualbox-guest/vboxguest.ko'
Module without debug link
'deb-modules-extra/lib/modules/5.3.0-8-generic/kernel/virtualbox-guest/vboxsf.ko'
$
As reflected in the kernel build log.
$ grep WARNING build.log
echo "WARNING: Missing debug symbols for module
'$module'."; \
WARNING: Missing debug symbols for module
'/lib/modules/5.3.0-8-generic/kernel/virtualbox-guest/vboxguest.ko'.
WARNING: Missing debug symbols for module
'/lib/modules/5.3.0-8-generic/kernel/virtualbox-guest/vboxsf.ko'.
