           Summary: ipkg kernel/module upgrade regression
           Product: OpenMoko
           Version: 2007.2
          Platform: Neo1973
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: kernel
        AssignedTo: openmoko-kernel at lists.openmoko.org
        ReportedBy: cwixon at usa.net
                CC: buglog at lists.openmoko.org


My bleeding-edge build within the last couple of days built a new kernel and
modules, but they did not install correctly onto my GTA01 via ipkg.

In the recent past (see, e.g., bug #1175), upgrading the kernel package via ipkg
would result in the kernel partition being flashed and the new kernel and module
packages being installed.  Before that, the kernel and module packages would
install, but I would have to flash the kernel manually.

But on this upgrade (2.6.22.5-moko11+svnr3874-r13 to 2.6.24+svnr4013-r4014-r3),
*only* the kernel ipkg packages installed.

See the following excerpt from ipkg list_installed, following the upgrade:

kernel - 2.6.24+svnr4013-r4014-r3 - Linux 2.6.x (development) kernel for FIC
SmartPhones shipping w/ OpenMoko
kernel- - 2.6.24+svnr4013-r4014-r3 - Linux 2.6.x (development) kernel for FIC
SmartPhones shipping w/ OpenMoko
kernel-image- - 2.6.24+svnr4013-r4014-r3 - Linux 2.6.x (development) kernel for
FIC SmartPhones shipping w/ OpenMoko

And:

root at thrakkorzog:~$ ls -l /boot
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root      1761992 Feb  4 18:33 uImage-2.6.24
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            7 Feb  4 21:30 zImage -> zImage-


Kernel modules did not upgrade:

kernel-module-af-packet - 2.6.22.5-moko11+svnr3874-r13 - af-packet kernel module
kernel-module-bluetooth - 2.6.22.5-moko11+svnr3874-r13 - bluetooth kernel
module; Bluetooth Core ver 2.11
kernel-module-bnep - 2.6.22.5-moko11+svnr3874-r13 - bnep kernel module;
Bluetooth BNEP ver 1.2

... etc. etc. etc.  During the ipkg upgrade, each module threw an error that the
corresponding kernel image 2.6.24 was not installed.

And the kernel did not get flashed.  Following reboot:

root at thrakkorzog:~$ uname -r
2.6.22.5-moko11

Finally, I don't know whether this is related to this bug or not, but I should
also ask -- why are there three separate packages:

kernel
kernel-
kernel-image-

only "kernel-image-" has a file associated with it, the uimage in /boot.
