openafs/1.8.4~pre1-1ubuntu2.1 ADT test failure with linux-hwe-5.11/5.11.0-20.21~20.04.1

[Kleber Sacilotto de Souza]

[Impact]

Openafs 1.8.4~pre1-1ubuntu2.1 FTBFS when built against Linux 5.11

[Fix]

Apply the attached debdiff (that is, in turn, a backport of upstream Linux build fixes), build the debs, install the dkms deb and build it against an installed 5.11 kernel:

$ sudo dkms install openafs/1.8.4~pre1-1ubuntu2.1 -k $linux-5.11-version

[Regression potential]

The previous DKMS didn't build at all against 5.11.

This is a scripted bug report about ADT failures while running openafs tests for linux-hwe-5.11/5.11.0-20.21~20.04.1 on focal. Whether this is caused by the dep8 tests of the tested source or the kernel has yet to be determined.

Testing failed on:

NB! dkms ftbfs fixes must be built in security, such that after SRU process in -proposed & -updates it can be copied into -security pocket too.

That's a lot of patches, but I'll just assume those are all necessary to resolve the FTBFS situation.

Hello Kleber, or anyone else affected,

Accepted openafs into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openafs/1.8.4~pre1-1ubuntu2.2 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.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

I can confirm that openafs-modules-dkms 1.8.4~pre1-1ubuntu2.2 can be built and loaded in focal with both 5.4.0-79-generic and 5.11.0-24-generic kernels. I have also tested starting the openafs-client.service systemd service.

autopkgtest has also passed with both kernels:
