DKMS doesn't work with 6.13 #17

alaricljs · 2025-02-10T16:58:13Z

WARNING: `dkms install --no-depmod zfs/2.3.0 -k 6.13.2-arch1-1' exited 1

I haven't found a way to get more out of the build process.

Thank you for reporting this issue. I will have a look into at in a VM.
In the mean time: Please note I have updated the repo README to mark this as a somewhat private/personal repo and redirect anyone to the "official" upstream repo https://github.com/archzfs/archzfs
Have you tried thier version?
https://github.com/archzfs/archzfs/releases/download/experimental/zfs-dkms-2.3.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
btw: DKMS should only be required if you run a non-standard kernel. If you use one of the standard kernels please prefer the proper packages for them. Running dkms with a standard kernel doesn't make much sense.

No problem if you ignore me, I had been using your repo while archzfs status was getting worked out and saw your 2.3.0/6.13.2 release as an opportunity. If you're not patching anything it's due to the lack of zfs upstream support beyond 6.12.* and archzfs won't be any different.

n0xena · 2025-02-10T18:03:20Z

It's not about ignoring anyone - it's just: I'm not a kernel module dev. I started to just provide pre-built packages as the upstream repo had issues to keep up. I'm happy to help and glad that someone seem to use it other me.
Sure I will try to investigate the issue - but I'm not sure if I'm able to find the cause let alone fix it.
Let me have a look into it and compare my regular build with what dkms does. Maybe I can narrow it down.

n0xena · 2025-02-10T18:26:44Z

So I narrowed down the issue to the dkms build is missing the --enable-linux-experimental flag - see: openzfs/zfs#16574 (reply in thread)
This makes ./configure fail early on with the error message "compiling against 6.13 - but zfs only supports 6.12".
A possible solution seems to somehow inject the experimental flag into the dkms build process. Unfortunately, as stated above: I'm no dev and hence don't know how to fix this.
I guess the best place to ask how to get this working is in the AUR section of the arch bbs: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewforum.php?id=38
For now all I can do is acknowledge the issue and update the release page to mark DKMS as broken / for 6.12 only unless either I or someone else finds a fix.

alaricljs · 2025-02-10T18:27:23Z

Thanks for the time you put in.

n0xena · 2025-02-20T14:52:22Z

as an update:
ZFS is working on 6.14 already - so I guess it shouldn't take long for either a new RC or a minor update official supporting 6.13 and maybe even 6.14
anyway - I guess as there seem some need for DKMS builds for non-standard kernels I likely will read into pkgbuild and maybe open a topic on the arch bbs

alaricljs · 2025-02-20T15:03:50Z

I did some digging and have found no way to inject that specific a directive into the DKMS build unless zfs suports it as an ENV var.

n0xena · 2025-02-21T14:33:34Z

From my initial debugging of this I noticed that the actual dkms build uses different values for the ./configure command than the regular builds, see

archzfs/src/zfs/PKGBUILD.sh

Lines 30 to 40 in 87f6b40

    
           build() { 
        
               cd "${zfs_workdir}" 
        
               ./autogen.sh 
        
               ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --sbindir=/usr/bin --libdir=/usr/lib \\ 
        
                           --datadir=/usr/share --includedir=/usr/include --with-udevdir=/usr/lib/udev \\ 
        
                           --libexecdir=/usr/lib --with-config=kernel \\ 
        
                           --with-linux=/usr/lib/modules/\${_extramodules}/build \\ 
        
                           --with-linux-obj=/usr/lib/modules/\${_extramodules}/build \\ 
        
                           --enable-linux-experimental 
        
               make 
        
           }

The way I see this is a flaw in the upstream archzfs repo not correctly providing the proper ./configure parameters and hence dkms is quite different to the regular builds. I will re-raise this issue upstream after I got home and can provide the actual command.
I also read the arch wiki and there is a way to provide such parameters. When this is fixed upstream it should be easy for me to add the missing override to make dkms work with newer kernels.

with openzfs/zfs#17097 not mention any push to 6.13 and from upstream also no reply yet I guess this will keep standing as for now
so - if you require dkms you have to stick to 6.12 - or use standard kernel for 6.13 support

n0xena · 2025-03-02T23:28:20Z

so I played a bit around and got this build working
it's only a first test to see if and how the dkms.conf can be patched
for now I just added the experimental flag to allow dkms build for 6.13.x
I discuss upstream if other parameters should be changed, too
please feel free to test and give me a feedback if it works on your setup

alaricljs · 2025-03-03T20:22:36Z

smashing. worked on 6.13.4 and 6.13.5

n0xena · 2025-03-03T22:07:19Z

just tested on xanmod 6.13.5 - works - merged and closing as fixed

n0xena · 2025-03-11T05:42:56Z

@alaricljs as a heads up:
according to openzfs/zfs#17026 (comment) current zfs master seem to look good for 6.14 so I'll keep the experimental flag and should be able to provide packages and DKMS for 6.14 as it gets released
I also started to test DKMS against xanmod as a non-standard kernel - although I haven't figured out how to run the test suite, yet
btw what's the fork you require DKMS for? depending on how you acquire it I maybe able to provide pre-built (note: if you compile your own fork that won't work as pre-built packages only work for the very kernel they build against)
in the meantime I'd like to point out that upstream archzfs was finally updated for 6.13 - so if you prefer a more "official" build than my fork please feel free to give it a shot

alaricljs · 2025-03-15T23:23:42Z

No fork, I use DKMS for a few other things so when archzfs.com wasn't keeping up with kernel releases DKMS smoothed that out well. That worked until recent kernel changes required ZFS to do their own compat changes as well.

n0xena · 2025-03-18T10:47:07Z

Ah, ok. I look positive towards 6.14.
As it may could take a few days before a 6.14 will become available in core repo DKMS should work fine with a self-built mainline one.
If anything comes up please feel free to open a new issue.
