As maintainer of VirtualBox on openSUSE, I would like to know how to prevent this in the future. My understanding of the build process is rather rudimentary.
The "proper" fix would be to reintroduce the ksym() dependencies, i.e. make the KMPs depend on the kernel ABI checksums rather than the kernel release string.
Which leads to another question: why do we still fight with kabi in opensuse when we don't leverage from that?
Sidenote: if we don't use kabi, we can drop it and can update to higher major kernel versions easier, if needed (e.g. once, to the next longterm stable).
Isn't the major issue that widely-used third party modules like nvidia and fglrx would also need to be rebuilt? That's the biggest reason I always wanted to keep the kABI stable. - -Jeff - -- Jeff Mahoney SUSE Labs -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.22 (Darwin) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJV1d26AAoJEB57S2MheeWyxlAQAKMfG5tq+pDnkRKsPowLYqtV OOCNJbm8miwDpBad8dsMytJ1BpSI1xXs6xQ4XvfiTB/MAv5frpftRWyAgRAB2bkB pULz0y0cz5eIvbNuEMnhM7xFvUp2aoqSu0iVr94pMS1Glv2pruBylJNQk1Ec3PX8 vrW0A3lHP7MkAUJTb7cLQniDpvrmAgbdEitIqmZPDTRXURbcu10nvGv3jYBQnqMy ffg6UOVGZAJO2om4hba9caYlIgCM3jkMw36tsRWumI09PzLtb/MlA1FneQexMvBX sGjPRbnnLDX5BMLEAW0cuDjCseOiiTTp033H4HPPS23FHljlkbfJ6T7G8SCEEiEq CeB+WaRtDBwQrapOMoLspSvcAW4/dhFy7RNcx5/Zt7SKdi/e2wDhgBLWwYWaYwwI LeFhrDN+QDRpLd3ShT9Ixc+My3YHMAiwrT3LLAG5cA5MuZnVi5+rBaAsM1nGcEm/ /QFCp/p2tFnvNnynJlUaI4Q/Ct2eMC5W5e66lK9sey3/KRCpNMjINfmYeQEnzWua 3S9CUrxObwoelR3mBOyGhGIAZrW5jhxKPUqDYKymVvk6ObXdXqsBrww8n77aE8la dNoh034vIgWdpLVt1dYJxDYp1ZsZ74HzKkwMdEYqxcupPr31h7t7lwuRTiZABSR8 B8x41lNBGUNeY1vgC3h3 =cr2s -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner@opensuse.org
