Subject: bug#34162: linux-libre 4.20+ fails to mount ext4 on aarch64
Date: Mon, 21 Jan 2019 11:48:47 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87a7jtyeow.fsf@ponder> (raw)

After upgrading to linux-libre 4.20, and again tested with 4.20.3, an
aarch64 system failed to boot (using 4.19.10 worked fine):

[    3.692351] device-mapper: ioctl: 4.39.0-ioctl (2018-04-03) initialised: dm-devel@redhat.com
ext2fs_check_if_mount: Can't check if filesystem is mounted due to missing mtab file while determining whether /dev/sda6 is mounted.

Workaround or fix was to add to config.scm:

(initrd (append (list "crc32c_generic" ... ) %base-initrd-modules))


4.19.10 and earlier worked fine without this addition; as far as I can
see the relevent kernel configurations are all present; but some
behavior changed with the ext4 driver; Is the initrd no longer including
soft module dependencies? (e.g. for optional ext4 features)


This seems similar to Debian bug:
