Bug#568008: Error inserting padlock_sha: No such device
Dear maintainer,
I reopened this bug, as I think that there is a regression in current
versions, because the observed behavior is the same as in this bug report (and
in #485070), i.e. there is an alarming message on boot without showing a
problem otherwise. I think the problem is well described in #107.
This is the relevant journal output:
> systemd-modules-load[153]: Inserted module 'dm_crypt'
> systemd-modules-load[153]: Inserted module 'aes_i586'
> systemd-modules-load[153]: Failed to insert 'aesni_intel': No such device
> systemd-modules-load[153]: Failed to insert 'padlock_aes': No such device
> systemd[1]: systemd-modules-load.service: main process exited, code=exited,
status=1/FAILURE
> systemd[1]: Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.
> systemd[1]: Unit systemd-modules-load.service entered failed state.
This is the alias:
> # modprobe --resolve-alias aes
> aes_i586
> aesni_intel
> padlock_aes
So I guess, that -- as desribed in #107 -- loading of the alias aes is
requested. But although aes_i586 can be loaded (verified with lsmod), modprobe
seems to return 1 leading to the error messages above and the failure of the
service (verified with fish shell, so $status is bash's $?):
> # modprobe --verbose aes; echo $status
> insmod /lib/modules/3.16.0-4-686-pae/kernel/arch/x86/crypto/aesni-intel.ko
> modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'aesni_intel': No such device
> insmod /lib/modules/3.16.0-4-686-pae/kernel/drivers/crypto/padlock-aes.ko
> modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'padlock_aes': No such device
> 1
modprobe is part of the kmod package, which is installed in version 18-3.
Kind regards
Patrick
