linux from security may force reboots without complete dkms modules

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

Whilst discussing

https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/improvements-for-hardware-support-in-ubuntu-desktop-installation-media/20606

We have noticed a reference to somebody not having working backport-iwlwifi-dkms, whilst SRU of that happened before the v5.4 -> v5.8 switch.

However, kernel meta switch was pushed to security pocket, but the dkms modules are all in -updates only.

This may result in people automatically installing the new kernel with unatanded upgrades; dkms modules failing to build; and a reboot required flag left on disk.

At this point launching update manager will not offer to install dkms modules from updates, and will guide the users to reboot..... which will then cause them to boot the new kernel without the dkms modules that might be providing networking for them.

Should dkms modules SRUs always getting published into -security pocket, as well as the -updates pocket?

Should linux maintainer scripts prevent touching reboot required flag if any dkms modules fail to build?

Should apt / unattanded-upgrades / update-manager always update dkms modules with kernels?

[Marc Deslauriers (mdeslaur)]

I agree this sounds like an undesirable scenario. I think all dkms packages should get built in -security as part of the SRU process to prevent this sort of thing from happening in the future.

Do we do test rebuilds of all the dkms modules before switching the kernel meta package to a new upstream version?

[Ubuntu Kernel Bot (ubuntu-kernel-bot)]

This bug is missing log files that will aid in diagnosing the problem. While running an Ubuntu kernel (not a mainline or third-party kernel) please enter the following command in a terminal window:

apport-collect 1914279

and then change the status of the bug to 'Confirmed'.

If, due to the nature of the issue you have encountered, you are unable to run this command, please add a comment stating that fact and change the bug status to 'Confirmed'.

This change has been made by an automated script, maintained by the Ubuntu Kernel Team.

Re test rebuilds, that's certainly the intention, but there are occasional problems:

[Balint Reczey (rbalint)]

This is only a linux package update process problem, and apt frontends can do nothing to prevent it.

[Balint Reczey (rbalint)]

The linux packgages need to add breaks against in-archive dkms modules failing to build with the updated kernel, thus APT and APT frontends can hold back the upgrade until all dkms package updates become ready.

[Balint Reczey (rbalint)]

Since this breaks systems unattended I'm marking the bug as High, but I recommend the Critical severity.

[Kleber Sacilotto de Souza (kleber-souza)]

The false positives on kernel ADT matrix were caused by an issue in dkms-autopkgtest shipped by the dkms package, as we discussed here:

https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2021-February/116985.html

All the dkms packages which were failing to build in Focal with the hwe-5.8 kernel are now fixed. We need now to fix dkms to make sure this won't happen again.

[Dimitri John Ledkov (xnox)]

@seth-arnold @mdeslaur

Mostly the dkms packages ship source code only, without strict binary deps on packages/libraries from updates. It should be safe to publish them into -security pocket.

It is correct that there were a few bugs with dkms modules, which are now resolved in -updates. But one can still upgrade from offline installation using 20.04.1 media to something broken.

[Dimitri John Ledkov (xnox)]

adding breaks on linux-meta in -security, on dkms package versions that are in -updates only, would result in the kernel being held back and not get autoinstalled.

[Steve Beattie (sbeattie)]

Hi Dimitri, I don't know that all dkms SRUs need to go to the security pockets, but ones that fix build issues surely do, given the problems that a dkms build failure causes in package installs.

[Dimitri John Ledkov (xnox)]

@kernel team

please check which dkms packages in -updates fix FTBFS, and if they need to be rebuilt in -security pocket and released in -security pocket.

[Kleber Sacilotto de Souza (kleber-souza)]

The issue with the dkms package has been fixed via bug 1915051.

[Kleber Sacilotto de Souza (kleber-souza)]

Hi Dimitri,

These are the dkms packages which had the build failure fixed after the -hwe switch in Focal from 5.4 to 5.8:

bcmwl=6.30.223.271+bdcom-0ubuntu7~20.04.1
nvidia-graphics-drivers-340=340.108-0ubuntu5.20.04.1
virtualbox-hwe=6.1.16-dfsg-6ubuntu1.20.04.1

And this is the list of all the other dkms packages which had to be updated to fix build failures in Focal with the 5.8 kernel:

acpi-call=1.1.0-5ubuntu0.1
backport-iwlwifi-dkms=8324-0ubuntu3~20.04.2
dahdi-linux=1:2.11.1~dfsg-1ubuntu6.1
dm-writeboost=2.2.9-1ubuntu1.1
evdi=1.7.0+dfsg-1ubuntu1~20.04.2
gost-crypto=0.3.2-2ubuntu0.1
iptables-netflow=2.4-2ubuntu0.2
lime-forensics=1.9-1ubuntu0.1
lttng-modules=2.12.2-1ubuntu1~20.04.1
openafs=1.8.4~pre1-1ubuntu2.1
oss4=4.2-build2010-5ubuntu6~20.04.1
r8168=8.048.00-1ubuntu0.20.04.1
rtl8812au=4.3.8.12175.20140902+dfsg-0ubuntu13~20.04.1
sysdig=0.26.4-1ubuntu0.2
v4l2loopback=0.12.3-1ubuntu0.3
virtualbox=6.1.16-dfsg-6~ubuntu1.20.04.1
zfs-linux=0.8.3-1ubuntu12.6

None of these updates has been released to -security, so if we want to make sure that users running the hwe-5.8 kernel from -security will not get broken dkms packages we need to release them all.

[Andy Whitcroft (apw)]

I think I agree with @sbeattie, that the rule should be to always promote dkms package changes which correct for build issues in the kernel to -security on the presumption that the kernel will soon need it as it moves to -security.

[Andy Whitcroft (apw)]

To minimise effort reviewing all of those packages for -security safety, we should simply rebuild all of them in the kernel security team PPA and publish them all to -updates/-security.

[Dimitri John Ledkov (xnox)]

I've rebuilt all the packages mentioned above in bileto ppa against security pocket and pushed them to focal-proposed queue, ready for sru review and accept.

All, but openafs which ftbfs now, and will need to be fixed up for v5.11 anyway. So it will be rebuild in security pocket with v5.11 fixes later.

Hello Dimitri, or anyone else affected,

Accepted zfs-linux into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zfs-linux/0.8.3-1ubuntu12.9 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

All autopkgtests for the newly accepted virtualbox-hwe (6.1.16-dfsg-6ubuntu1.20.04.2) for focal have finished running.
The following regressions have been reported in tests triggered by the package:

virtualbox-hwe/6.1.16-dfsg-6ubuntu1.20.04.2 (s390x, ppc64el, armhf, arm64)

Please visit the excuses page listed below and investigate the failures, proceeding afterwards as per the StableReleaseUpdates policy regarding autopkgtest regressions [1].

Thank you!

virtualbox-hwe/6.1.16-dfsg-6ubuntu1.20.04.2 (s390x, ppc64el, armhf, arm64) -> is a false negative. virtualbox-hwe is only supported on amd64 i thought.

https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/v/virtualbox
https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/v/virtualbox-hwe

Suggests that to be the case.

sru-release comments:

virtualbox-hwe/6.1.16-dfsg-6ubuntu1.20.04.2 (s390x, ppc64el, armhf, arm64) -> autopkgtest failures are a false negative. It only is built and supported on amd64

sysdig/riscv64 - ftbfs is not a regression, never built on riscv64 in focal

zfs-linux/riscv64 - ftbfs is not a regression, never built on riscv64 in focal

iptables-netflow - needs 3 more days to age

Thus everything is ready to be released to -updates & -security

The verification of the Stable Release Update for rtl8812au has completed successfully and the package is now being released to -updates. Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report. In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report regression-update so we can easily find any regressions.

[Steve Beattie (sbeattie)]

All work for this report has been completed, I believe the linux and linux-meta tasks can be closed out as well.
