为什么 dkms 状态会出现“警告！构建模块与安装模块之间存在差异”？

Question

generic@motorbrot:~$ sudo dkms status
zfs, 0.8.4, 5.3.0-51-generic, x86_64: installed (WARNING! Diff between built and installed module!) (WARNING! Diff between built and installed module!) (WARNING! Diff between built and installed module!) (WARNING! Diff between built and installed module!) (WARNING! Diff between built and installed module!) (WARNING! Diff between built and installed module!) (WARNING! Diff between built and installed module!) (WARNING! Diff between built and installed module!)
zfs, 0.8.4, 5.3.0-53-generic, x86_64: installed (WARNING! Diff between built and installed module!) (WARNING! Diff between built and installed module!)

为什么会出现此消息？

我尝试删除并重新安装zfs这两个内核之一。

generic@motorbrot:~$ sudo dkms remove -m zfs -v 0.8.4 -k 5.3.0-53-generic

-------- Uninstall Beginning --------

但 的输出dkms status保持不变。

为什么会出现这种情况？我应该担心吗？如果我担心的话，我该如何解决这个问题呢？

Answer 1

您可以在输出中看到答案。

Good news! Module version 0.8.4-1 for zavl.ko
exactly matches what is already found in kernel 5.3.0-53-generic.
DKMS will not replace this module.
You may override by specifying --force.

dkms发现模块版本（不是 dkms 软件包版本）与现在正在运行的内核中的版本相同，并且不会替换它。

但代码不同，它显示在dkms status输出中。

您可以通过增加源代码中的模块版本或使用--force建议的选项来修复它。

简短的回答是：发生这种情况是因为没有真正安装任何东西。

看起来您需要这个带有旧版 5.0 内核的 D​​KMS 软件包。现在 Ubuntu 18.04 使用的是原生具有该模块的 5.3 内核。所以您现在可以删除 dkm。
