A fix has been proposed for Lunar. https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2023-January/136387.html
Since the Config management has change between series, a similar patch/fix needs to be added for Kinetic and Jammy. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-kvm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1998244 Title: kselftest net/fib_nexthop_nongw.sh fails Status in linux-kvm package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux-kvm source package in Jammy: New Status in linux-kvm source package in Kinetic: Confirmed Status in linux-kvm source package in Lunar: Confirmed Bug description: 18272 03:33:07 DEBUG| Persistent state client._record_indent now set to 2 18273 03:33:07 DEBUG| Persistent state client.unexpected_reboot now set to ('ubuntu_kernel_selftests.net:fib_nexthop_nongw.sh', 'ubuntu_kernel_selftests.net:fib_nexthop_nongw.sh') 18274 03:33:07 DEBUG| Waiting for pid 58525 for 2700 seconds 18275 03:33:07 WARNI| System python is too old, crash handling disabled 18276 03:33:07 DEBUG| Running 'make run_tests -C net TEST_PROGS=fib_nexthop_nongw.sh TEST_GEN_PROGS='' TEST_CUSTOM_PROGS=''' 18277 03:33:07 DEBUG| [stdout] make: Entering directory '/home/ubuntu/autotest/client/tmp/ubuntu_kernel_selftests/src/linux/tools/testing/selftests/net' 18278 03:33:07 DEBUG| [stdout] make --no-builtin-rules ARCH=x86 -C ../../../.. headers_install 18279 03:33:07 DEBUG| [stdout] make[1]: Entering directory '/home/ubuntu/autotest/client/tmp/ubuntu_kernel_selftests/src/linux' 18280 03:33:08 DEBUG| [stdout] INSTALL ./usr/include 18281 03:33:08 DEBUG| [stdout] make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/ubuntu/autotest/client/tmp/ubuntu_kernel_selftests/src/linux' 18282 03:33:08 DEBUG| [stdout] TAP version 13 18283 03:33:08 DEBUG| [stdout] 1..1 18284 03:33:08 DEBUG| [stdout] # selftests: net: fib_nexthop_nongw.sh 18285 03:33:08 DEBUG| [stdout] # Error: Unknown device type. 18286 03:33:08 DEBUG| [stdout] # Cannot find device "eth0" 18287 03:33:08 DEBUG| [stdout] # Cannot find device "eth0" 18288 03:33:08 DEBUG| [stdout] # TEST: nexthop: get route with nexthop without gw [ OK ] 18289 03:33:18 DEBUG| [stdout] # TEST: nexthop: ping through nexthop without gw [FAIL] 18290 03:33:18 DEBUG| [stdout] not ok 1 selftests: net: fib_nexthop_nongw.sh # exit=1 18291 03:33:18 DEBUG| [stdout] make: Leaving directory '/home/ubuntu/autotest/client/tmp/ubuntu_kernel_selftests/src/linux/tools/testing/selftests/net' -------------------------------------------------------------------------- SRU Justification: [Impact] * Without Kernel support for the Dummy net driver, it is not possible to successfully run selftests that use it. This includes as per this bug net/fib_nexthop_nongw.sh, but also could potentially include other such as rtnetlink.sh, fib_rule_tests.sh, forwarding/* etc. [Fix] * Custom patch to enable CONFIG_DUMMY=m [Test Plan] * Before the fix, the net/fib_nexthop_nongw.sh script will fail in the specific line which does $ ip -n h1 link add name eth0 type dummy Error: Unknown device type. After the fix it does not fail. [Where problems could occur] * The regression can be considered as low, since we are adding functionality not previously present. [Other Info] * There does not seem to be a historical reason for removing it from linux-kvm.
