Hi Danny,
Here are some small remarks,

Toggle quote (4 lines)

> + ;; Make modprobe available as /sbin/modprobe so the kernel finds it.> + (if kmod> + (begin

You can use "when" to avoid "begin".

Toggle quote (3 lines)

> + (define version> + (car

Prefer match to car/cdr use.

Toggle quote (9 lines)

> + (filter> + (lambda (name)> + (not (string-prefix? "." name)))> + (scandir module-dir))))> +> + (display "VERSION")> + (display version)> + (newline)

(format #t "VERSION" ~a~%" version) would be shorter.

Toggle quote (2 lines)

> + ; -E

Why is this commented ?

Toggle quote (5 lines)

> + "-F" (string-append #$linux "/System.map")> + version)> + #t)))>

Thanks,
Mathieu

Because it's an option for specifying the location of "Module.symvers" - andI don't know whether guix uses it (probably not).  If one doesn't specify anoption, depmod will default to the running kernel - which is not what we want.
I should elaborate in the comment that, if we start using Module.symvers, weMUST pass "-E" there.  Maybe better to even just check for the file existenceand add it right now, otherwise we might forget later.  What do you think?

Reading 'depmod' manpage, I understand that -E and -F are mutuallyexclusive. Both options seem to have an interest only if -e is suppliedto "reports any symbols which a module needs which are not supplied byother modules or the kernel".
So maybe something like "-F (string-append #$linux "/System.map") -e"would make more sense ?

Can we build upon (gnu build linux-modules) to achieve this?
Hopefully the tools athttps://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=30629#14 can help a bit.

Probably better to be more careful that devname is set early enough.

Nitpick: align like this:
(filter-map first second)
when the first arg spans several lines.

We could reuse modules.alias and modules.devname from the ‘linux-libre’package (right?), but I guess it doesn’t hurt to generate custom ones.

I think we need different procedures here:
(write-module-alias-database modules port) ;for “modules.alias” (write-module-device-database modules port) ;for “modules.devname”
with docstrings.
I’m not sure we need ‘install-module-files’ itself. Perhaps we caninline it at the call site?
For the devname code, please avoid ‘set!’. Instead you can thread thecurrent devname as the state of a loop:
(let loop ((devname #f) (aliases aliases)) (match aliases (() …) (((? devname-alias? devname) . rest) (loop devname rest)) …)) The indentation of ‘match’ forms is wrong. Would it be OK for you topass it through ./etc/indent-code.el? (It’s non interactive, you don’tneed to actually use Emacs.)
Thanks,Ludo’.

If we change ‘flat-linux-module-directory’ to produce a ‘modules.alias’file, here we could read ‘modules.aliases’ directly and load the rightthing.
With the patch below, we get ‘needed-modules’, and we could simply do:
(for-each (catch-ENOENT load-linux-module*) (needed-modules (known-module-aliases (string-append linux-module-directory "/modules.alias"))))
and we can do away with kmod’s modprobe.
Thoughts?

It's not kmod's modprobe anymore. It's our pure-Guile implementation.
Linux lazy-invokes modprobe (for example when mounting stuff), so/sbin/modprobe is never going away - but it can be our implementation.
I doubt it will take the modules from the correct directory with your patch.(Of course otherwise it looks much nicer - but I think it won't pass the tests)
My newest version (v9) will use the same procedure for both computing the listof modules for flat-linux-module-directory and the list of modules that are tobe modprobed - I think it's nice to be able to keep those in sync so we don'tget nasty surprises. Let's see how that goes...

Hi Ludo,
I've been thinking about it some more - I think it can be made to work "your" way.
I'm trying to integrate it right now.
But! The module-aliases->module-file-names way I've been pursuing (which alsoreturns the recursive dependencies) has the advantage of using exactly the sameprocedure for both flat-linux-module-directory (which copies files) and forour modprobe (which loads them later).
This means that it's very likely these two will match.
But if load-linux-module* recursively loads modules on its own it's easilypossible that these will diverge - what flat-linux-module-directory is doingcould (accidentially) differ in the future.
Maybe that's overly defensive programming. What do you think?
My flat-linux-module-directory basically just returns a subset of the directorytree it gets as parameter (and flattens it for no reason).
Also, I've been trying to use find-files for /sys before, like you do.It doesn't work correctly - probably because of the mutation that modprobe does(find-files sorts - not sure whether that's the whole story).
Integration tests just finished - even the basic system test fails because of itnow.
I tried only this:
(define (load-kernel-modules) "Examine /sys/devices to find out which modules to load and load them."- (define enter?- (const #t))- (define (down! directory stat result)- ;; Note: modprobe mutates the tree starting with DIRECTORY.- (let ((modalias-name (string-append directory "/modalias")))- (if (file-exists? modalias-name)- (let ((modalias- (string-trim-right (call-with-input-file modalias-name- read-string)- #\newline)))- (system* "/sbin/modprobe" "-q" "--" modalias))))- #t)- (define up- (const #t))- (define skip- (const #t))- (define leaf- (const #t))- (define (error name stat errno result)- (format (current-error-port) "warning: ~a: ~a~%"- name (strerror errno))- result)- (file-system-fold enter? leaf down! up skip error #t "/sys/devices"))+ (for-each (lambda (modalias)+ (system* "/sbin/modprobe" "-q" "--" modalias))+ (system-device-aliases)))
Doesn't work anymore...

I'd prefer "install-" because their interface is somewhat like install-file(caller provides output directory and callee adds "modules."* automatically).
But I used the names "write-module-"* in the patchset v9.

I'm actually trying to switch to emacs but when I press Tab it messes upthe stuff more. Is there some kind of configuration for guile indentation?
Also, every time I open gnu/build/linux-modules.scm I get

Yes, but it would be somewhat dirty. Here's why:
Linux-libre contains a superset of modules and also their modules.aliasand modules.devname contain a superset of modules compared to the initrd.
That means
(1) modules.alias would contain aliases which map to modules whichdon't exist. Since we don't for-each it, who cares.
(2) modules.devname would contain devnames for modules which don'texist. That means the boot code would create files in /dev which,when someone accesses them, would try to load modules which don'texist - and then the access would fail.
Technically both are not bad, but (2) is bad "UX" practise nowadays - andnot done in the Linux world any more since udev exists.
I can still remember the days of 8540 entries static /dev filesystem (as in,really on the hard disk), 7000 of which didn't work (or even valid for thissystem type :P).
If something goes wrong, good luck finding the needle in the haystack(which /dev file you can use to boot).

When than happens, our modprobe gets called with the “netdev-eth0”alias, which it cannot handle, leading to this error.
By explicitly loading “virtio_net” and sleeping a bit, we get past thatpoint, but fail later on:

As I said, modprobe mutates /sys - you cannot use find-files. I haven't usedftw just to be contrarian. There's even a warning comment :-)
In order to find that out, try to print how /sys looked before modprobe - thenin the early guile recovery REPL print how /sys looks again - the alias itwas juuust complaining about will be there just fine.
My patch series works fine lazy-loading the IO charset, virtio_blk, virtio_net.
It took about 30 h to work out the correct minimal combination - just saying :-)

I guess technically it's the Linux kernel module that mutates it.

qemu seems to have a bug that it doesn't assign pci ids properly.
Patch v9 6/7 works around it by fixing the virtio-blk-pci address.
Nicer fixes welcome.

Yeah, that was an evil problem. There are two different ways linux-bootcan boot:* Either it loads a full system in which case /run/booted-system willcontain kernel module files which can and will be loaded* Or it loads a "--load" file only - in which case there's no systemmodprobe, but switch-root just switched our pure-Guile modprobe away,so now we are out of modprobes :)

Would make sense to also support "-a" (used when invoking modprobe to load multiplekernel modules at once).

It wasn’t clear to me what “modprobe mutates /sys” meant, and I guess Ididn’t think it could lead to not seeing relevant “modalias” files. NowI’ve experienced first-hand that it does matter. :-)

Yeah I can imagine (and it would have taken me much longer I guess.)
While reviewing this series I realized I didn’t understand everything,as in the example above, some things seemed unnecessary, and I thoughtwe could improve the style of a few things.
The patches that follow build upon your work with a few changes:
• The “modules.alias” writer style is made more idiomatic and hopefully simpler.
• The “modules.devname” writer is actually unnecessary. I changed it to a more functional style and with smaller functions. It’s the last patch of this series; it’s completely optional since we don’t use it currently, but we might want to keep it around for later.
• The pure-Scheme modprobe uses SRFI-37 instead of (ice-9 getopt-long), as in the rest of the code base.
• /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe is set in ‘boot-system’ directly, so that we don’t have to special-case the “modprobe” closure in ‘build-initrd’.
• ‘module-aliases->module-file-names’ is gone. Instead there’s ‘load-needed-linux-modules’, similar to the ‘load-kernel-modules’ you had, but a bit simpler.
• I added comments here and there, especially about the virtio-blk-pci, which was far from obvious. :-)
I didn’t add the ‘needed-modules’ and ‘system-device-aliases’ proceduresI posted earlier because we don’t need them currently. If you thinkthey could be useful, we can always add them.
The following command succeeds:
make check-system TESTS="basic installed-os iso-image-installer"
WDYT?

I realize that makes for a not-so-efficient review process, though Ithink the result is worth it. I’m open to suggestions though.
Overall, these changes are mostly about (1) making self-containedcommits, (2) commenting code, and (3) coding style. About #3, I thinkthe guidelines I applied were:
1. Avoid imperative style. When we do need side effects, try hard to move them separately.
2. Keep functions short.
3. Decompose functions in a way that allows them to be combined “nicely”.
Some of that is a bit subjective, but overall we should be able toconverge.
Thanks for the great work, and sorry for the back-and-forth and delays!

I suppose we can do that later because the kernel doesn’t use it in‘call_modprobe’ and this thing is only ever invoked by the kernel.

Sure.
I just wanted to comment because I noticed that kmod's
modprobe a b c
doesn't load three modules a, b, c. But my v9's pure-Guile modprobe wasimplemented in a way that it did load three modules a, b, c - which itdefinitely shouldn't be doing.

There's a race because Linux could just start loading modulesimmediately before boot-system even starts / executed far enough.
That was why earlier I kept /sbin/modprobe as the name (it's thedefault Linux uses) and made sure that the file /sbin/modprobe is alreadyin the initrd (as opposed to created by boot-system).
The race didn't happen to me yet (and I doubt that Linux has modulesfine-grained enough that that's a problem in practise) - but I would preferit not to be possible.

Without "-a", it's not supposed to be a list of aliases. It's supposed to beone alias and the remainder are parameters supposed to be passed to thatkernel module.
(I didn't know that before).
When Linux invokes /sbin/modprobe, it doesn't pass "-a" but it doesn'tpass any module parameters either - it just passes one module alias.
For clarity and in order that we don't have weird problems later (trying toload a module named "verbose=1" or something :) ), let's just accept one aliasfor now.

Hmm, logging is nice!
But with /dev/kmsg one write(2) syscall needs to pass the entire message.

The original modprobe loads as many modules as it can and possibly sets an(always the same) error flag (and continues loading the other modules).
Then modprobe's exit status is that error flag.
This is moot because we shouldn't accept more than one alias - see above.

One of the devnames created statically is the one for btrfs, so not writing orusing devnames is not going to end well.
If it did work without it I'd be even more on guard :)

Yeah I’d think that whitespace is non-significant in these files, but inpractice they’re always generated anyway.

We’re fine because btrfs, 9p, overlay, etc. all have an “fs-btrfs”,“fs-9p”, etc. alias, which shows up in “modules.alias”. No need for“modules.devname” AFAICS.

Hello!
I’m using this on the bare metal. \o/
I had to make this change so that dm-crypt would be loaded once I’veentered my passphrase:

FWIW I have:

Something annoying is that my external USB keyboard doesn’t work whilein the initrd (when I type my passphrase). I can see that it’s detectedearly on, before I type my passphrase:

Yeah, done. Ideally ‘program-file’ would take care of this. Futurework!

The other filesystems are not such a problem - but BTRFS has its own snapshotting/multivolume functionality - and it's possible that someone accesses /dev/btrfs-control"too early" for that.
I applied your patches to a fresh clone of guix master now, ran the btrfs-root-ossystem check, and indeed I get (tried two rounds, happened both times):

I've read Linux's __request_module and I can't find where theypre-check anything - neither whether there's already a builtinnor whether it's loaded already.
They probably don't check. But I'll read it again, more carefully...
(request_module isn't that popular so it makes sense for them not to complicatethe kernel by these checks when there are like 8 callers in total - and all on init)

Right, and the worst that can happen is that modprobe will fail, butthat’s fine because the functionality is already there anyway.

Yeah - but what does the kernel do when we return a non-zero exit code for something he wants to use? :)
./fs/filesystems.c: if (!fs && (request_module("%.*s", len, name) == 0)) ^^^^ uh oh

Did it work before? I remember that Andreas had a similar problem before all this.
Did you implement globs with [0-9] yet? I remember there were some USB devicesusing those :)
What's the modalias of your usb keyboard?
Does your initrd's modules.alias contain any patterns that are supposed to match?
(You can look into those via cat initrd | gunzip -cd |cpio -i
- it will unpack)

I can't get the logfile to show any modprobe log message in this case(which is "make TESTS=btrfs-root-os check-system").
I had that problem before and I think it's because guix isusing some special /tmp/repl pipe for qemu here[1] and so the messagevanishes somewhere where I can't see it (that is, the guest doeseverything correctly but the host loses it somewhere).
The usual trick I use in this case which is "steal the cmdline andthe files from /proc/<qemu> and invoke it myself" doesn't workeither because of the pipe... hrmmmm...
I tried both /dev/kmsg and just not closing current-output-port etc.
I've double-checked that I've applied all v11 patches, includingthe resolve-alias one (which I think is necessary anyway).
Help?

While experimenting with this on the bare metal, it became clear thatit’s a timing issue: the keyboard is detected right after the cryptsetupis displayed, so ‘load-needed-linux-modules’ didn’t have a chance toload the relevant modules.
Similarly, if I boot with ‘--repl’, and I manually type(load-needed-linux-modules …) from there, then the keyboard’s modulegets loaded as expected. That’s because the device showed up in themeantime and the kernel created a /sys entry for it.
In essence, we want a mini-udev and something akin to “udevadm settle”.Merely calling ‘load-needed-linux-modules’ once isn’t enough.
One way to do that would be to have a separate thread that calls‘load-needed-linux-modules’ as appropriate. Ideally it would useinotify on /sys like udev does, but a poor programmer’s version couldsimply call ‘load-needed-linux-modules’ every half a second or so.
Alternately, before passing control to user code (pre-mount actions,etc.), we could do a “settle” kind of thing: call‘load-linux-modules-from-directory’ every 0.5 seconds until its resultis the same as before. There’s still a risk of missing devices, andthose devices will never show up later because nobody’s monitoring /sys.But then again, “udevadm settle” must have the same problem: it can’treally know whether things have settled, I guess.
WDYT?

Yes, but udevd continues running and monitoring /sys anyway - so I guessthey don't really care (if I wrote it, I'd start up the monitoring firstand then traverse /sys for modalias - and make sure the modprobe isidempotent).
I have to say what we have to do is much more complicated than I thoughtit would be - and I kinda regret starting this patchset. I didn'twant to make it less likely for people to boot than before :-(
I suggest we find out how the other distributions do it - if they do it.
A small bit of research shows that:
- Busybox uses a loop with timeout to try to mount over and over again,depending on bus type [2].- Alpine coldplugs twice [1].- Fatdog has a "waitdev" boot parameter that specifies how long it sleepsuntil it tries to mount the root.- Redhat mkinitrd has an mkinitrd option like "--with=scsi_wait_scan" whichthey use after they saw a modalias starting with "scsi:" - or add thekernel option "scsi_mod.scan=sync" to the command line [3] (but they say thatthis is unreliable now and one is supposed to use udev inside the initrd).Not sure what they do for USB.
The Linux kernel itself has a "rootdelay" parameter whichwas specifically introduced because of USB devices that took 15 s (!)to show up.
All in all, we have alternative ways to continue:
(a) Drop this patchset/feature entirely because it's too unreliable.(b) Monitor /sys using inotify in an extra thread/process.(c) Include udev into the initrd and have it do its thing.(d) Monitor the netlink socket in our own thread and play udev ourselves.(e) Find out how to, for each bus type, detect when enumeration is finished.Find out which buses are there. Wait for them to finish enumerating.(f) Always modprobe usb-hid first, no matter what. I think this wouldbecome a whack-a-mole thing fast.
I'd prefer either (a) or (b) for reliability and simplicity. WDYT?

It’s a kludge fest, which is reassuring, in a way.

Same here! Sounds like (b) is something we could easily try, though wewon’t know how well it works until people start running it on the baremetal.
I can adjust the branch I have to do that and push it for people to try.

IOW, it does the right thing whether or not you’re using a UUID.
However, when using a UUID, it waits for the device to show up, whereasotherwise it assumes the /dev node is already there and invokes‘cryptsetup’ right away.
We should fix that and generalize the wait-for-device loop, whichalready exists in a couple of instances.

The actual fix for the hyphen/underscore mismatch that Julien reportedis commit c85ccf60bf. The “modules.devname” and “modules.alias” areactually unused so far but (1) it was easier to preserve them, and (2)that’ll give us an incentive to finishhttps://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/30604. :-)
I added an explicit comment that “modules.name” uses a Guix-specificformat. We can always rename it if the kernel folks decide to acquirethat file name.
Julien, could you please confirm that your initial issue is fixed?
