Public bug reported: [ Impact ]
The DKMS package fails to install on kernels based on 5.0; specifically noticed in the Bionic HWE Edge kernel. [ Test Case ] Install the v4l2loopback-dkms package with a 5.0 kernel. The package should install without any errors. [ The Problem ] "do_gettimeofday" was deprecated and removed in the 5.0 kernels, so the package will not compile since the function it requires does not exist. [ Proposed Fix ] Port the following patch from the package developers which replaces calls to the deprecated API with appropriate wrapper functions: https://github.com/umlaeute/v4l2loopback/commit/afe0b233070d7ca5d6df83c5f2723d276dcd287d.patch [ Regression Potential ] I think regression potential is low if the proposed fix is accepted. The function calls that supplant the deprecated ones have been there since before kernel 4.15 (of which Bionic is based upon). amd64: https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-bionic/bionic/amd64/v/v4l2loopback/20190429_215733_875ac@/log.gz arm64: https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-bionic/bionic/arm64/v/v4l2loopback/20190429_220415_875ac@/log.gz i386: https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-bionic/bionic/i386/v/v4l2loopback/20190429_215750_875ac@/log.gz ppc64el: https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-bionic/bionic/ppc64el/v/v4l2loopback/20190429_215314_875ac@/log.gz s390x: https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-bionic/bionic/s390x/v/v4l2loopback/20190429_214920_875ac@/log.gz ** Affects: v4l2loopback (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Connor Kuehl (connork) Status: New ** Tags: kernel-adt-failure -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1828615 Title: v4l2loopback 10.0-1ubuntu1 ADT test failure with linux 5.0.0-14-generic To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/v4l2loopback/+bug/1828615/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
