  The following warning is generated by makedumpfile 
  * running makedumpfile --dump-dmesg /proc/vmcore 
/mnt/201602030129/dmesg.201602030129
  The kernel version is not supported.
  The created dumpfile may be incomplete.

  The makedumpfile version on your machine is 
  # makedumpfile -v
  makedumpfile: version 1.5.5 (released on 18 Dec 2013)

  I did a #sudo apt-get source makedumpfile and checked for the sources. 
  In the makedumpfile.h ,  the LATEST_VERSION is set to
  #define OLDEST_VERSION  KERNEL_VERSION(2, 6, 15)/* linux-2.6.15 */
  #define LATEST_VERSION  KERNEL_VERSION(4, 1, 0)/* linux-4.1.0 */
  where as kernel version on the machine is 
  # uname -r
  4.2.0-27-generic

  Hence we see this mismatch and message as "The kernel version is not
  supported."

  We need canonical to change the value of LATEST_VERSION  so that we do
  not see this message.

Support kernel versions up to 4.8 (LP: #1557751)
  * Turn hardcoded timeo and retrans NFS options into parameters that
can be modified in /etc/default/kdump-tools. Also use the NFS defaults
(timeo=600, retrans=3) for these parameters. Make those values visible
in the 'show' command if NFS is configured (LP: #1641235)
  * Complete support for kernel versions 4.8 and later :
d/p/0007-PATCH-Looking-for-page.compound_order-compound_dtor-.patch,

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1557751] Re: makedumpfile generates kernel version error

[Andy Whitcroft]

Hello bugproxy, or anyone else affected,

Accepted makedumpfile into xenial-proposed. The package will build now
and be available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/makedumpfile/1:1.5.9-5ubuntu0.4 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 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 to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  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!

Hello,

Since we see this in xenial as well, will there be a track opened for
delivery of a fix there as well? Thanks.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1557751] Re: makedumpfile generates kernel version error

[Louis Bouchard]

After talking with upstream, the new version should come sometimes in
may with support for newer kernels. At the moment, this message can be
disregarded as a warning since there is no kernel specific issue up to
k4.5

  The following warning is generated by makedumpfile 
  * running makedumpfile --dump-dmesg /proc/vmcore 
/mnt/201602030129/dmesg.201602030129
  The kernel version is not supported.
  The created dumpfile may be incomplete.

  The makedumpfile version on your machine is 
  # makedumpfile -v
  makedumpfile: version 1.5.5 (released on 18 Dec 2013)

  I did a #sudo apt-get source makedumpfile and checked for the sources. 
  In the makedumpfile.h ,  the LATEST_VERSION is set to
  #define OLDEST_VERSION  KERNEL_VERSION(2, 6, 15)/* linux-2.6.15 */
  #define LATEST_VERSION  KERNEL_VERSION(4, 1, 0)/* linux-4.1.0 */
  where as kernel version on the machine is 
  # uname -r
  4.2.0-27-generic

  Hence we see this mismatch and message as "The kernel version is not
  supported."

  We need canonical to change the value of LATEST_VERSION  so that we do
  not see this message.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1557751] Re: makedumpfile generates kernel version error

[Louis Bouchard]

Hello,

The reason for this verification is that version 1.5.5 of makedumpfile
was tested on kernels up to 4.1 and not later. Fixing that is not just
to trivially change the entry in the file. It requires verification that
makedumpfile will indeed work for newer kernels.

Since the upcoming release of Xenial will introduce a 4.4 kernel in
trusty, it will also become apparent for 4.4 kernels.

I am going to verify if this version limit can be bumped up to 4.4 which
will resolve your problem.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1557751] Re: makedumpfile generates kernel version error

[Louis Bouchard]

Hi,

First of all, I was wrong in my previous statement : 1.5.5 currently
supports kernels up to 3.19. The source code that you cite is for 1.5.9
that is only available in Xenial.

Secondly, there is no upstream version that supports kernel up to 4.2
since 1.5.9 is the last released upstream version. The current plans for
the next upstream version is to support kernels up to 4.2 so the problem
will remain with the lts-xenial kernel.

After reviewing the differences between 1.5.5 and 1.5.9, I only see one
kernel specific commit of interest, and it only enhances the current
behavior by using newly exported kernel information not available
beforehand. This will not impair the current functionality.

So I am not in a position to overrule upstream's decision to warn about
the fact that kernels above 4.1 are not supported.

I could backport the current situation but it will do you no good as it
will only bring the limit to 4.1. I prefer to wait for the newer release
that will provide a wider span of version support.

I will get in touch with upstream to see if there is any plan to bring
support for earlier kernels and up to what version they plan to confirm
support.

Kind regards
