More Bugs: depmod segfaults on FC5, agrrrr!
Fedora bug #202927
depmod segfaults
So, me fighting irq kernel bug (see my previous post). I went to kernel.org, got a stock kernel, build it, tried to install :
/sbin/depmod -e -F System.map 2.6.17.8
WARNING: Module /lib/modules/2.6.17.8/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_DSCP.ko is not an elf object
…. some stuff skipped ….
Segmentation fault
Nice!
Apearantly, depmod segfaults after looking at /lib/modules/$kernel_verion/updates
strace output:
open(“/lib/modules/2.6.17.8/updates”, O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
— SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) —
+++ killed by SIGSEGV +++
Maybe it will be fixed or maybe I will write a patch for this
