I'm trying to install DRBD 0.8.3.4 on top of Linux 2.6.31.3.
When trying to start DRBD I get an Oops:
Did it even occur to you that you could also try the "usual"
out-of tree module build?
Sorry, but no, that didn't occur to me. I used the kernel-patch method
since 0.7 and always preferred it, because there are two drawbacks with
the "usual" method:
1.) If you prepare your system for a new kernel version you need to
remember a special depmod command to prevent ending up with "modprobe:
FATAL: Module drbd not found" after a reboot:
depmod -ae `cat /usr/src/linux/include/config/kernel.release`
That was not needed with the kernel-patch method.
2.) If you have a running system and recompile/reinstall your kernel,
after "make modules_install" the drbd module is gone. You always need to
remember to change to the drbd directory and do "make install" again.
So you alwasy roll your own kernel. Ok.
I think "most" use a distro kernel, and most distros solve those
problems with package management, dependencies and trigger scripts,
maybe a system like dkms and possibly a lazy depmod during boot.
Same problem here with Debian, Kernel 2.6.30-bpo.1-amd64 from
backports.org and DRBD-8.3.5. DRBD was build as modules source an
compiled as Module for this kernel. Server was running 8.3.0 a long time
without any problems. After update if drbd starts we get anytime a
kernel Oops:
Please see here:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=552439
Patch from this bug does not works for me. But after i'v removed
#define KERNEL_HAS_CN_SKB_PARMS
i'v compiled DBRD and installed it. No problems more with
drbd_connector_callback.
Many thanks for quick response!
