[Bug 1732746] Re: [Trusty] iscsitarget-dkms 1.4.20.3+svn499-0ubuntu2.3 fails to build on linux-lts-xenial kernel

[Brian Murray]

Hello Kleber, or anyone else affected,

Accepted iscsitarget into trusty-proposed. The package will build now
and be available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iscsitarget/1.4.20.3+svn499-0ubuntu2.4
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 and change the tag from
verification-needed-trusty to verification-done-trusty. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-trusty. 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!

Title:
  [Trusty] iscsitarget-dkms 1.4.20.3+svn499-0ubuntu2.3 fails to build on
  linux-lts-xenial kernel

Status in iscsitarget package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in iscsitarget source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed
Status in iscsitarget source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  iscsitarget-dkms will fail to build for 4.4.0 kernels on trusty, when their ABI start with 1, like in -100 or -101.

  [Test Case]
  Install different kernels, including 3.13, and 4.4, and 4.4.0-78, 4.4.0-81 and 4.4.0-101. That means different kernel base versions, different ABIs, including the offending one (that starts with 1), and the one that had not have the sock_recvmsg signature changed. All build successfully.

  [Regression Potential]
  Builds could fail with a future kernel or an old kernel we haven't tested with. A similar solution has already been applied to xenial. Some other way of calling dkms could make the build fail. Different ways have been tested in this case.


  iscsitarget ADT tests are failing on Trusty with linux-meta-lts-xenial
  4.4.0-101.124~14.04.1 due to iscsitarget-dkms
  1.4.20.3+svn499-0ubuntu2.3 compilation failure.
