2023-12-10 14:01:47 Ken Sharp description I've been using zswap without any issues for a while, but on upgrading from 18.04 to 22.04 (via 20.04) the kernel starting failing to find the modules for lz4hc compression and the z3fold zpool. $ sudo dmesg | grep -E 'z3fold|lz4hc' [ 0.000000] Command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-6.2.0-37-generic root=PARTUUID=948a082e-cfd1-43af-bc7b-3e0b9b20370e ro console=tty1 console=ttyS0 zswap.enabled=1 zswap.compressor=lz4hc zswap.max_pool_percent=60 zswap.zpool=z3fold transparent_hugepage=always panic=-1 [ 0.021736] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-6.2.0-37-generic root=PARTUUID=948a082e-cfd1-43af-bc7b-3e0b9b20370e ro console=tty1 console=ttyS0 zswap.enabled=1 zswap.compressor=lz4hc zswap.max_pool_percent=60 zswap.zpool=z3fold transparent_hugepage=always panic=-1 [ 1.099655] zswap: compressor lz4hc not available, using default lzo [ 1.101349] zswap: zpool z3fold not available, using default zbud But the modules are in the initrd (as they always have been): $ lsinitramfs /boot/initrd.img | grep -E 'lz4hc|z3fold' usr/lib/modules/6.2.0-37-generic/kernel/crypto/lz4hc.ko usr/lib/modules/6.2.0-37-generic/kernel/lib/lz4/lz4hc_compress.ko usr/lib/modules/6.2.0-37-generic/kernel/mm/z3fold.ko I'm at a complete loss. If the modules are there, why can't the kernel find them? Both modules can be loaded (obviously from a different location – not the initrd) and the relevant parameters changed with startup scripts but this is a workaround not a solution.
