[SOLVED] Kernel 5.5.2 is built with the wrong version of gcc

Roken · 2020-02-05 21:39:11

Both Arch and zen kernels. I can no longer build kernel modules (dkms) including nvidia, it87 or virtualbox-host-modules. It's taken me an age to get back to a desktop boot (LXDM now fails to start X complaining about a missing fonts.directory, but starting xfce4 directly gets me here).

Right now, I have nvidia and the other kernel modules removed. If I try to install the dkms packages, I get

Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 5.5.2-arch2-1 (x86_64)

The same error, suitably modified for it87 and virtualbox, and both Arch and zen kernels.

I've tried downgrading the kernels, dkms packages, gcc and related packages that were are a part of the update, and I'm getting nowhere. I'm stumped!!

Ideas?

EDIT: This would appear to be relevant:

cc1: error: incompatible gcc/plugin versions
cc1: error: fail to initialize plugin ./scripts/gcc-plugins/structleak_plugin.so
cc1: error: incompatible gcc/plugin versions
cc1: error: fail to initialize plugin ./scripts/gcc-plugins/structleak_plugin.so

EDIT 2

is this a sufficient mismatch:

gcc -v
Using built-in specs.

?

EDIT 3:

Apparently it is. Downgrading gcc, gcc-libs, gcc-d and gcc-fortran to 20200130-1 has enabled the modules to build and LXDM to start as normal. Should I be posting a bug report somewhere?

Please change your topic title to one that actually describes your issue.

kernels were rebuilt for the new toolchain to prevent this issue but you did not update the kernel.

Roken · 2020-02-05 22:17:17

I did update the kernel, and I downgraded it again (which failed to resolve) so upgraded again. It seems the kernel (both Arch and zen) are built with -1, whilst gcc is built with -3.

@Wormzy - what would you like it to say - it's quite accurate from my perspective.

EDIT: For clarity - my only way in was chroot, and when I did get back to a "working" system. it was TTY only.

If this is a matter of repo sync, fine, though I don't do partial upgrades unless absolutely necessary, and I certainly haven't today.

5.5.2.arch2-1 is built with gcc-9.2.1+20200130-1 so the kernel needs another rebuild for 9.2.1+20200130-2

Exactly my point

gcc is up to 20200130-3, which breaks it all.

Yes post a bug against linux asking for another rebuild assuming gcc will not be rebuilt again.

Nope - 20200130-3

Something that describes actually your issue without any of the dramatics. If you are an actual corpse, then you have bigger problems than being unable to compile kernel modules.

loqs · 2020-02-05 22:38:08

Not seeing a -3 release in https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/pack … ckages/gcc or in https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-commits/

Since, when I posted, I had spent two hours just trying to get a working system, it was accurate. Now I've figured out the problem, edited.

Happy, now?

EDIT: And I would be quite happy being dead with iZombie

My error. I was looking through my cache - gcc7 was -3. I should really clear it out.

My apologies.

No problem and my apologies for assuming you had not updated the kernel.

I'll mark this issue as solved, but there's another. I've opened a separate thread.
