apport information
** Tags added: apport-collected
** Description changed:
On Kubuntu 24.04.4 with linux-image-7.0.0-28-generic (HWE, noble-updates) and
the DKMS
nvidia module (nvidia-driver-580, 580.159.03), every boot logs a kernel
WARNING with
call trace during nvidia module load:
------------[ cut here ]------------
Unpatched return thunk in use. This should not happen!
WARNING: arch/x86/kernel/cpu/bugs.c:3736 at __warn_thunk+0x10/0x20, CPU#1:
(udev-worker)/576
...
nvidia_init_module+0x29/0x850 [nvidia]
Full trace attached (attachment-nvidia-thunk-warn.txt).
Context that is likely relevant: the kernel command line includes
`mitigations=off`.
The same system, same nvidia-driver-580 DKMS build, and the same
`mitigations=off`
cmdline on linux-image-6.17.0-40-generic produces NO such warning. So either
the 7.0
kernel changed return-thunk patching behaviour under mitigations=off for
out-of-tree
modules, or the warning is newly (perhaps intentionally) surfaced — in which
case it may
still deserve suppression for this configuration, since the taint/WARN fires
on every
boot with no user-visible malfunction (nvidia module works normally
afterwards).
Hardware: ASUS VivoBook_ASUSLaptop X580GD_N580GD, i7-8750H (CoffeeLake),
GTX 1050 Mobile, nvidia-driver-580 (580.159.03) via DKMS.
