** Patch added: "focal-proposed.debdiff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/focal/+source/virtualbox/+bug/1901904/+attachment/5428626/+files/focal-proposed.debdiff ** Description changed: [SRU Justification] Impact: The build of virtualbox-dkms modules fails in 20.04/Focal when the 5.8 based HWE kernel is installed. - * Rename of mm->mmap_sem into mmap_lock - * Modified API to read/write CR4 - * Modified API to access virtual memory areas + * Rename of mm->mmap_sem into mmap_lock + * Modified API to read/write CR4 + * Modified API to access virtual memory areas + + Fix: Picking 2 patches from a later version of virtualbox and adjusting + the 3rd to match what upstream virtualbox settled in the end with (that + enables some code only for kernels between 2.6.23 and 5.8, the compile + of virtualbox-dkms succeeds on 5.8. + + Testcase: dkms install -m virtualbox -v 6.1.10 -k 5.8.0-*-generic + + Regression Potential: This could show runtime issues when used on the + 5.8 kernel but that did not work at all with the Focal version of + virtualbox. The code generated for older kernels is unchanged. --- Testing failed on: amd64: https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-focal/focal/amd64/v/virtualbox/20201016_103035_8da78@/log.gz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1901904 Title: virtualbox 6.1.10-dfsg-1~ubuntu1.20.04.1 ADT test failure with linux- hwe-5.8 5.8.0-25.26~20.04.1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox/+bug/1901904/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
