They might just need help... but I don't really know. :) One more thing: can anybody point me to good docs on how to automatically sign DKMS on build/install in Fedora? I tried editing /etc/dkms/framework.conf to add SIGN_TOOL and also POST_INST, but nothing seemed to work. I can't even get my script to run. I can sign it manually after I `dkms install` but that's kind of annoying to do after every dnf update that updates the kernel. All the docs out there seem to be written for Ubuntu, and the instructions don't seem to work on Fedora. If I can't get good docs, I'm going to have to start ripping apart /usr/sbin/dkms and filling it with print debug statements. :) ___ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org

And, it's a lot of manual work to self-sign and register the key with mokutil, and even more effort to figure out how to get DKMS to automatically sign after building, on kernel updates. I don't know enough about RPMFusion packaging. I use RPMFusion, but haven't looked into the contribution process.

It is on > rpmfusion. tl;dr - OBS requires v4l2loopback to do what I need to do. And, even without OBS, all the instructions out there to capture and share specific screens (or portions of screens) in Linux using apps like Slack describe using v4l2loopback. I'm already using OBS. I use OBS to prepare the scene by combining all the sources into the scene layout I want, but then I need to expose that result into an output stream that can be used in Slack or other apps. There are OBS plugins to emit the scene to a virtual video capture device, and it works on Windows just fine, but for it to work on Linux, I need to use the v4l2loopback module to create a virtual camera that can be used in those streaming apps. As I understand it, v4l2loopback is already available on Ubuntu. There was a COPR package for it, but it hasn't been maintained in some time, and even when bringing it up-to-date, it uses DKMS to build an unsigned kernel module, which won't load. I'm not comfortable messing with mokutil and SecureBoot configuration, and don't think it should be necessary to get this functionality. ___ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org

My recollection (from some time ago) was there was a process to request a (short term) exception to allow one to ship a kernel module if the kernel module developer (not the packager) would document the plans (and commit) to upstreaming with a reasonable date attached. I don't recall such a process being used any time recently, and I am not even sure the process is still considered operational (lots of policies get retired). RPMFusion, of course, does ship kernel modules, so there is that if someone wants to go that route. ___ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org

This is the procedure I used to create a local key in order to sign custom compiled kernels. So, if you decide to plow on through, you should be able to adapt it for your purposes. Though, if Leigh is right, and out of tree modules are forbidden as Fedora packages, you will have to keep the module rpm on your system only. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1719930 ___ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org

v4l2loopback kernel module in Fedora?
Hi, Has anyone tried packaging v4l2loopback into Fedora? I'd really like to set up a screen capture device for video conferencing stuff, but I keep running into problems with SecureBoot. I don't really know what I'm doing with mokutil or DKMS and I'm generally uncomfortable building kernel modules myself. I would be far more comfortable simply installing directly from a Fedora RPM that contains the signed kernel module needed. Does anybody have the requisite knowledge to create Fedora packaging of v4l2loopback and is willing to package for F31? I'd be happy to test... and possibly co-maintain, if the package maintenance were sufficiently simple.
