Title:
  revert support for arbitrary symbol length in modversion in hwe
  kernels

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired
Status in linux source package in Jammy:
  Expired

Bug description:
  The following patch may break user-space, providing an actual ABI
  change:

UBUNTU: SAUCE: modpost: support arbitrary symbol length in
  modversion

  This is not critical for new releases (also considering that the
  potential breakage is unlikely to happen, unless some
  tools/scripts/apps are inspecting modules' internals - likely only
  kmod tools, that are ok with this change), but for LTS releases it is
  just safer to prevent adding this change.

  Keep in mind that this patch is required to enable Rust support in the
  generic kernel, but it is not required for hwe kernels, because we do
  not enable Rust support for them.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 2039010] Re: revert support for arbitrary symbol length in modversion in hwe kernels

2023-11-27 Thread Ubuntu Kernel Bot
This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-
gcp-6.5/6.5.0-1010.10~22.04.3 kernel in -proposed solves the problem.
Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the
problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-jammy-linux-
gcp-6.5' to 'verification-done-jammy-linux-gcp-6.5'. If the problem
still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-jammy-linux-gcp-6.5'
to 'verification-failed-jammy-linux-gcp-6.5'.


If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.


See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!
