  [Impact]
  If a dkms package is installed which has REMAKE_INITRD or the same setting 
has be manually configured by a user then when a kernel is removed its possible 
for an ".old-dkms" file to be left in /boot with no associated kernel.

  [Test Case]
  On a system with two old kernels and one new kernel available in -updates:
  1) install r8168-dkms
  2) install the dkms module for the old kernel e.g. 'sudo dkms install -m 
r8168 -v 8.041.00 -k 4.4.0-31-generic'
  3) upgrade your kernel e.g. "sudo apt install linux-image-generic'
  4) sudo apt autoremove
  5) observe something like "initrd.img-4.4.0-31-generic.old-dkms" in /boot 
without a corresponding "initrd.img-4.4.0-31-generic"

  With the version of dkms in -proposed, the .old-dkms file will be
  removed when the kernel is auto removed.

  [Regression Potential]
  Somebody out there might expect the .old-dkms file to be kept, but that seems 
like an odd expectation.

  One notices *.old-dkms files being left behind still sitting on the
  disk after purging the related kernel. This can cause /boot to become
  full, and when it gets really bad, even sudo apt-get autoremove won't
  fix the problem - only deleting the old-dkms files manually solves the
  problem.

  Note:  Filling up the /boot partition causes updates to fail.

  If a dkms package is installed which has REMAKE_INITRD or the same setting 
has be manually configured by a user then when a kernel is removed its possible 
for an ".old-dkms" file to be left in /boot with no associated kernel.

  [Test Case]
  On a system with two old kernels and one new kernel available in -updates:
  1) install r8168-dkms
  2) install the dkms module for the old kernel e.g. 'sudo dkms install -m 
r8168 -v 8.041.00 -k 4.4.0-31-generic'
  3) upgrade your kernel e.g. "sudo apt install linux-image-generic'
  4) sudo apt autoremove
  5) observe something like "initrd.img-4.4.0-31-generic.old-dkms" in /boot 
without a corresponding "initrd.img-4.4.0-31-generic"

  With the version of dkms in -proposed, the .old-dkms file will be
  removed when the kernel is auto removed.

  [Regression Potential]
  Somebody out there might expect the .old-dkms file to be kept, but that seems 
like an odd expectation.

  One notices *.old-dkms files being left behind still sitting on the
  disk after purging the related kernel. This can cause /boot to become
  full, and when it gets really bad, even sudo apt-get autoremove won't
  fix the problem - only deleting the old-dkms files manually solves the
  problem.

  2) install the dkms module for the old kernel e.g. 'sudo dkms install -m 
r8168 -v 8.041.00 -k 4.4.0-31-generic'
  3) upgrade your kernel e.g. "sudo apt install linux-image-generic'
  4) sudo apt autoremove
  5) observe something like "initrd.img-4.4.0-31-generic.old-dkms" in /boot 
without a corresponding "initrd.img-4.4.0-31-generic"

  With the version of dkms in -proposed, the .old-dkms file will be
  removed when the kernel is auto removed.

  [Regression Potential]
  Somebody out there might expect the .old-dkms file to be kept, but that seems 
like an odd expectation.

  One notices *.old-dkms files being left behind still sitting on the
  disk after purging the related kernel. This can cause /boot to become
  full, and when it gets really bad, even sudo apt-get autoremove won't
  fix the problem - only deleting the old-dkms files manually solves the
  problem.

  Note:  Filling up the /boot partition causes updates to fail.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1515513] Re: /boot/initrd.img-*.old-dkms files left behind

[Chris J Arges]

Hello Robin, or anyone else affected,

Accepted dkms into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dkms/2.2.0.3-2ubuntu11.4 in a few
hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-xenial to verification-done-xenial. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-xenial. In either case, details of your
testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1515513] Re: /boot/initrd.img-*.old-dkms files left behind

[Brian Murray]

I found some commonly used dkms packages that do set REMAKE_INITRD.

broadcom-sta-6.30.223.271/debian/broadcom-sta-dkms.dkms:REMAKE_INITRD="YES"
flashcache-3.1.3+git20150701/src/dkms.conf:REMAKE_INITRD=yes
r8168-8.044.02/debian/r8168-dkms.dkms:REMAKE_INITRD="YES"

And zfs sets REMAKE_INITRD sometimes.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1515513] Re: /boot/initrd.img-*.old-dkms files left behind

[Brian Murray]

My testing indicates that the .old-dkms files are only created if
"remake_initrd" is yes in /usr/sbin/dkms and that is controlled by
"REMAKE_INITRD" in a dkms.conf file.  From what I can tell most
dkms.conf files do not contain the REMAKE_INITRD option. So I don't
think this effects a lot of people.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1515513] Re: /boot/initrd.img-*.old-dkms files left behind

[Brian Murray]

I'm looking for specific steps to recreate the problem on an Ubuntu
system. What steps do I need to take for dkms to leave to a bunch of
.old-dkms files in boot?

It's in the DKMS itself. Not sure what the main branch is, but here is an 
example from some branch:

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1515513] Re: /boot/initrd.img-*.old-dkms files left behind

[Brian Murray]

While I've uploaded this fix to Artful for dkms, its not quite clear to
me how the extra files end up getting created.  I've a couple of systems
using dkms and nvidia and I don't see any .old-dkms files on them. For
this to SRU'ed, which I'm happy to do, we'd need a test case which
describes how to recreate the issue. Could someone provide some
information on how to recreate the issue of .old-dkms files filling up
/boot? Thanks in advance!

The commit for this in upstream Debian (0.123 version of initramfs-
tools) is here: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/kernel/initramfs-
tools.git/commit/?id=ac6d31fc2c707b72ff8af9944c9b4f8af303a6a3 - I would
be happy to make a patch for this commit to xenial (zesty and later has
0.125+, so should already include the fix).

[Jarno Suni]

Note that the patch in #15 removes the leftovers related to the kernel
version being removed currently. Removing leftovers related to already
purged kernels still have to be done manually, for example by linux-
purge https://www.bountysource.com/issues/38300038-feature-request-the-
command-should-work-like-this together with other extra kernel related
stuff.

Why not adding removing to both? That way update-initramfs would remove
the extra ones even if dkms was uninstalled.

[spike speigel]

Also found this:

https://github.com/dell/dkms/issues/2

It's known upstream in debian and dkms, but whether dkms or initramfs-
tools should be responsible for cleaning up files left behind by
dkms...I dunno.  What you posted sounded like it made sense to me.

I just wanted to note at least dkms has an upstream bug report (which
was opened May 2016).

Or update-initramfs could do more comprehensive deletion in its delete
function:

rm -f "${initramfs}" "${initramfs}".*

instead of

rm -f "${initramfs}" "${initramfs}.bak"

  One notices *.old-dkms files being left behind still sitting on the

  fix the problem - only deleting the old-dkms files manually solves the
  problem.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1515513] Re: /boot/initrd.img-*.old-dkms files left behind

[Jarno Suni]

The Bourne shell script code to remove the backups could be added in
kernel_prerm.d_dkms (or currently non-existing kernel_postrm.d_dkms) in
dkms package source, but if the package was removed, there would be no
code to remove the backups in conjunction with kernel removing. Thus,
the code could be added to kernel/postrm.d/initramfs-tools (or currently
non-existing kernel/prerm.d/initramfs-tools) in initramfs-tools package
source, too:

# This is applied from make_initrd function in dkms command, which
# creates the possible initrd backup file.
remove_initrd_backup() {
for initrd in "initrd-$1.img" "initramfs-$1.img" "initrd.img-$1" 
"initrd-$1"; do
rm -fv /boot/"${initrd}".old-dkms \
 /boot/efi/efi/redhat/"${initrd}".old-dkms
done
}

remove_initrd_backup "$1"
