Jool fails on Ubuntu 20.04 Focal Fossa

[elburb]

jool fails with 'Error: Error receiving the kernel module's response: Invalid input data or parameter' when trying to run on the latest Ubuntu 20.04

Steps to reproduce:

Fresh install of Ubuntu 20.04:

# uname -a
Linux uk-lon4 5.4.0-26-generic #30-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 20 16:58:30 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Install jool 4.0.8.0 from source or from provided .debs. The build appears to complete without error.

# dmesg -t | tail -1
NAT64 Jool v4.0.8.0 module inserted.
# jool --version
4.0.8.0

Attempt to add a NAT64 instance:

# jool instance add "example" --iptables --pool6 64:ff9b::/96
Error: Error receiving the kernel module's response: Invalid input data or parameter

Can confirm easily.

Do notice that Jool 4.0.7 made it into Ubuntu 20. As a workaround, try

sudo modprobe -r jool
cd jool-4.0.8
sudo make uninstall
sudo dkms remove jool/4.0.8 --all

sudo apt install jool-dkms jool-tools

That allows me to create the instance.

Of the two bugs 4.0.7 has, only one should affect you, and is easy to prevent. (Delete all instances manually before r-modprobing.)

Thanks, and yes, 4.0.7 does work ok.

@jaki300: I think this is a separate issue. And the kernel taint probably doesn't have anything to do with it; it's effectively just a warning.

It seems your joold daemon crashed. May I have your joold configuration? (But please open a separate issue)

[ydahhrk]

Also, joold's logs would help too.
