[ Test case ]
Install the latest linux-6.17 kernel on Noble:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:canonical-kernel-team/ppa3
$ sudo apt install linux-generic-hwe-24.04-edge
Install apfs-dkms:
$ sudo apt install apfs-dkms
Load the module:
$ sudo modprobe apfs
Verify the filesystem has been registered properly:
$ grep apfs /proc/filesystems
The same procedure can be repeated on linux-6.8 to test for possible
regressions.
[ Fix ]
Apply upstream patches to properly support the new linux 6.17 ABI,
namely the following:
[ Regression potential ]
We may experience regressions in systems that are using the Apple file
system module (apfs), especially with kernels >= 6.8 kernel.
