Hi again!
I've found the problems.
Configure runs kernel related tests even when we have --disable-modules, fix is
===
diff --git a/config/lustre-build.m4 b/config/lustre-build.m4
index fd62f314f4..57de734200 100644
--- a/config/lustre-build.m4
+++ b/config/lustre-build.m4
@@ -460,7 +460,7 @@ LB_CONFIG_MODULES

+AS_IF([test "x$enable_modules" = xyes], [

===
Then EXTRAFLAGS in debian/rules is broken, there are multiple occasions where
it just does
export EXTRAFLAGS="--disable-tests";
instead of the correct
export EXTRAFLAGS="$${EXTRAFLAGS} --disable-tests";
for varying options.
And the lustre-tests package builds a kernel module even if we have
--disable-modules.
That kernel module should only be built as part of a lustre-client-modules
package or during dkms building of the modules.
So I also removed lustre-tests from debian/control
Now I have the packages I want including
ustre-client-modules-dkms_2.16.1-1~noble0.1_amd64.deb

Hi!
I'm in the process of doing just that. But my usual process for doing this has
been "broken" between 2.15.4 and 2.16.1.
There seems to be config sections being processed when they shouldn't.
I'm trying to build client packages with dkms enabled but without explicit
modules, and some of the kernel config tests are being run even without modules
enabled.
I.e. what I want to do is this
configure --enable-dist
make dkms-debs
but during config (in make dkms-debs) it tries to do lnet kernel and lustre
kernel config checks.
In my opinion this is wrong and something that.
It boils down to
configure --enable-client --disable-modules
doing the wrong things during configure, i.e. testing for things that are only
needed during actual building of the dkms modules.
I'll try to sort this out but any help will be useful.

Subject: [lustre-discuss] Compiling lustre 2.16.1 for Ubuntu 24.04 client
Hi all,
We need to compile lustre 2.16.1 and produce packages for Ubuntu 24.04 client,
as available packages are no compiled with infiniband so ko2iblnd module is not
present.
We are doubting about using a fixed kernel like 6.8.0-31-generic or using dkms
to recompiling on the fly when updating kernel, because of problems that might
be raising when compiling with other kernels 6.8.0-XXX-generic. Might we have
such a problem? What do you recommend me?
Thanks in advance
Best regards
