Title:
autoinstall fails despite BUILD_EXCLUSIVE
Status in dkms package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in dkms source package in Lunar:
Confirmed
Bug description:
[Impact]
Kernel upgrades fail if DKMS packages are currently installed that
include BUILD_EXCLUSIVE directives which skip the DKMS build. In this
case, the dkms tool incorrectly returns a non-zero exit status.
$ sudo /etc/kernel/postinst.d/dkms 6.2.0-20-generic
* dkms: running auto installation service for kernel 6.2.0-20-generic
Deprecated

Error! The
/var/lib/dkms/oem-ethernet-r8169-aspm-support-bionic/4/6.2.0-20-generic/x86_64/dkms.conf
for module oem-ethernet-r8169-aspm-support-bionic includes a BUILD_EXCLUSIVE
directive which does not match this kernel/arch/config.
This indicates that it should not be built.
Error! One or more modules failed to install during autoinstall.
Refer to previous errors for more information. [fail]
[Test Plan]
Install such a DKMS (like [1]), and run:
$ sudo /etc/kernel/postinst.d/dkms $(uname -r)
This command should return with exit status '0'.
[1] http://oem.archive.canonical.com/updates/pool/public/o/oem-
ethernet-r8169-aspm-support-bionic-dkms/
[Where problems could occur]
This fix changes how DKMS status/results are handled during
autoinstall. So problems would only show up if DKMS modules are
installed and are being processed (for example during a kernel upgrade
or installation). Or if the dkms tool is invoked manually.
[Other info]
The bug was introduced in upstream dkms version 3.0.9 and fixed in
3.0.11.
