[Bug 1318317] [NEW] openipmi startup script removes kernel modules
You have been subscribed to a public bug by Jon Grimm (jgrimm): I need some IPMI kernel modules, so I load them during startup. This worked quite well until I upgraded to Ubuntu 14.04. As you can see I have the modules in /etc/modules: # grep ipmi /etc/modules ipmi_watchdog ipmi_devintf ipmi_poweroff ipmi_si Right after reboot, the modules are there: # lsmod |grep -i ipm ipmi_si53257 2 ipmi_poweroff 14366 0 ipmi_devintf 17572 0 ipmi_watchdog 24912 0 but disappear after a few seconds/minute. I found out, that the cause is the /etc/init.d/openipmi script. The behaviour of the script is quite strange because a stop/start will behave differently then a restart. I loaded the modules manually using modprobe: ipmi_si53257 2 ipmi_poweroff 14366 0 ipmi_devintf 17572 0 ipmi_watchdog 24912 0 when I execute: # service openipmi stop the module ipmi_devintf gets removed: ipmi_si53257 2 ipmi_poweroff 14366 0 ipmi_watchdog 24912 0 starting the service again with: # service openipmi start will remove ALL IPMI kernel modules: # lsmod |grep -i ipm # One of the reasons seems to be the module ipmi_msghandler. This is already integrated and causes some of the problems. When I remove it from /etc/init.d/openipmi like this: 65,66c65 < #MODULES_BASE="ipmi_msghandler" < MODULES_BASE="" --- > MODULES_BASE="ipmi_msghandler" 325,326c324,325 < # modprobe ipmi_msghandler > /dev/null 2>&1 < # modules_loaded ipmi_msghandler --- > modprobe ipmi_msghandler > /dev/null 2>&1 > modules_loaded ipmi_msghandler stoping and starting the service works again. But restarting the service will still remove all modules and will not load them anymore. ** Affects: openipmi (Ubuntu) Importance: High Assignee: Taco Screen team (taco-screen-team) Status: Confirmed ** Tags: taco-screen-team -- openipmi startup script removes kernel modules https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1318317 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to the bug report. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
