QUESTION

Can't install new kernel, hangs on DKMS installing EVDI

Asked 2021-Apr-24 at 03:01

Whenever I see the update manager glowing that I have an update I get annoyed and click it, so I'm almost always updating something and usually this has gone fine without any problems...

Recently it told me there was a new kernel update, so I clicked install like I usually do but it just got stuck, for hours. When I examined the terminal output it was hanging on a DKMS installation step, so I grabbed all the active DKMS processes and found that the specific thing it was hanging on was installing something called EVDI (which is related to the DisplayLink Ubuntu driver, I think). After letting it sit there doing nothing for more than a day I killed it and had to Timeshift back to before I had done the installation as it corrupted my kernel.

I examined the log file in /var/lib/dkms/evdi/5.2.14/build/make.log and found that it has many errors reported, and the one that starts the chain is:

Ultimately fixed by booting into an old 5.4 kernel, purging DKMS + all of the 5.8 kernels and a troublesome 5.4 kernel (had to do some things by hand as apt would not remove some directories), then reinstalling everything and updating grub from the 5.4 kernel. Just tested an update via the update manager (now running on the latest 5.8 kernel) and it worked fine! Unclear what exactly was causing the problem but glad it's fixed and hope this helps others if they stumble into something like this.

QUESTION

Make for objtool in Ubuntu 20.04 fails because of missing Build.include file?

Asked 2020-Apr-18 at 06:42

I'm trying to build and install the DisplayLink driver on a recently upgraded Ubuntu 20.04 laptop, so that I can make use of a Dell D3100 docking station to drive two external monitors via DisplayPorts. I had previously installed this driver successfully on the same laptop when it was running Ubuntu 18.04, and was able to detect and use the additional monitors (albeit with the occasional black screen).

I've downloaded the latest 5.2.14 driver installer from the download page, but this time when I run as sudo it fails due to some sort of misconfiguration or missing file/build folder, with the following showing up in the make log file:

/usr/src/linux-headers-5.4.0-24-lowlatency/tools/build/Makefile.build:37: /usr/src/linux-headers-5.4.0-24-lowlatency/tools/build/Build.include: No such file or directory

There is indeed no /usr/src/linux-headers-/tools/build/Build.include file, but I'm not sure why, and whether I'm missing a package I need?

Output from running the installer:

So it seems that the problem was being caused by invalid directory instructions in the Makefile of the DisplayLink driver, as I eventually found here (though this refers to an rpm release of the driver).

It looks as though when I've upgraded to the 5.4 kernel, this also changed the way that Makefiles are parsed, such that any SUBDIRS= parameters are ignored, leaving the instructions attempting to run make in the linux-headers/tools/build folder instead of the kernel module folder.

As the discussion thread linked above describes, the solution is to replace SUBDIRS=blah with M=blah in the Makefile, in addition to applying another patch to update source files that refer to to instead refer to the newer .

When I updated the DisplayLink driver 5.2 source with these patches, I was able to successfully build the evdi kernel module and connect my other monitors through the DisplayPorts on the dock. Hopefully this helps anyone else, until the next DisplayLink driver is released!
