Installation of zfs on a new machine fails. After command modprobe zfs it fails with error:

ERROR: could not insert 'zfs': Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

dmesg shows following errors:

[ 1570.132904] spl: loading out-of-tree module taints kernel. [ 1570.133083] spl: module verification failed: signature and/or required key missing - tainting kernel [ 1570.133324] spl: Unknown symbol x86_indirect_thunk_rax (err 0) [ 1570.133384] spl: Unknown symbol __x86_indirect_thunk_rdx (err 0) [ 1570.133462] spl: Unknown symbol x86_indirect_thunk_r14 (err 0) [ 1570.133511] spl: Unknown symbol x86_indirect_thunk_r13 (err 0) [ 1570.133609] spl: Unknown symbol __x86_indirect_thunk_r12 (err 0) [ 1570.133649] spl: Unknown symbol x86_indirect_thunk_r8 (err 0)

This is on centos 7 with kernel 3.10.0-693.21.1. I am installing using following commands which used to work in the past:

yum -y install epel-release yum -y install http://download.zfsonlinux.org/epel/zfs-release.el7_4.noarch.rpm yum -y install zfs modprobe zfs
