`make test ` from source raises error: Exception: The kernel is tainted: '512\n' #1439

Open glassxer1 opened 3 years ago

glassxer1 commented 3 years ago

OS: Ubuntu 20.04 When following the instruction on "https://criu.org/How_to_submit_patches", I ran make test to test my changes. But then I have this error make zdtm ./zdtm.py run -a --parallel 2 The kernel is tainted: '512\n' Traceback (most recent call last): File "./zdtm.py", line 2685, in <module> opts['action'](opts) File "./zdtm.py", line 2283, in run_tests launcher = Launcher(opts, len(torun)) File "./zdtm.py", line 1935, in __init__ raise Exception("The kernel is tainted: %r" % self.__taint) Exception: The kernel is tainted: '512\n' make[2]: *** [Makefile:23: zdtm] Error 1 make[1]: *** [Makefile:7: all] Error 2 make: *** [Makefile:326: test] Error 2 I know that I can get away with it when I run zdtm.py with --ignore-taint, but is there any way that I can get rid of this error when doing make test?

@glassxer1 you need to look at the kernel log why the kernel is tainted. It isn't normal.

A friendly reminder that this issue had no activity for 30 days.

I think this could be caused by the broken kernel of Ubuntu and some third-party libraries. I will post here if I have any confirmation.
