Fix akmodsposttrans after kernel update/install on Fedora >= 28 and RHEL >= 7 - rhbz#1709055 (4.40 KB, patch)

Description nicolas.vieville 2019-05-12 21:51:24 UTC
Description of problem:

From Fedora 30, installing or updating a kernel doesn't triggers the akmodsposttrans shell script located in /etc/kernel/postinst.d/ directory. This due to the removal of the /usr/sbin/new-kernel-pkg from grubby package in Fedora 30 to switch to new Boot Loader Specification (BLS). This file is provided in grubby-deprecated package if needed.

The result is that modules are build, packaged and installed at boot time, making this phase more longer.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

akmods-0.5.6-19.fc30.noarch.rpm

How reproducible:

With Fedora 30 switched to BLS, install or update one kernel, verify that akmods builds no modules (less /var/cache/akmods/akmods.log). Reboot and check akmods logs again.

Actual results:

Boot time is slowed by akmods.

Expected results:

Akmods builds modules after kernel install or update.

Fix akmodsposttrans after kernel update/install on f30

Hello,

Here is a proposed patch to fix this issue, discussed on rpmfusion users list (topic akmodsposttrans ?? of may 2019).

Reviewing this patch is what it was wanted by opening this bug report. I didn't wanted to apply it before proven packagers review.

Feel free to make any comment about this.

Cordially,

LGTM , using the rule which "worse will not stay", I think it should be applied .

Thanks,

Comment 4 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2019-05-14 15:34:25 UTC
This patch looks good.

It's just that %{_prefix}/lib/kernel/install.d exists in both fedora 28 and current EL7, so it would be nice to have there.
(although that can be adapted at a later step, let's get this fix sooner than later).

Comment 13 Javier Martinez Canillas 2019-06-17 15:58:31 UTC
I think that instead of akmod taking care of this, the kernel hook scripts in /etc/kernel/ should be executed even if the configuration is using BLS snippets. Take a look to Bug #1696202.
