@Bevan cool! Thanks for the quick help.

@drslmr: Thanks for bringing this issue upstream! 1.8.16 is about to be released, so I will push an update to the AUR in a couple of minutes which will also include the required patch to fix the module build.

@drslmr: Same issue here. I guess this is caused by some change within the 7.0 stable kernel because the module could be built against the initial 7.0 kernel. I cannot find any reference to this issue on Gerrit or the mailing list, so upstream may not be aware of it. Do you want to report it on the mailing list? If not, I hope I will find some time to look into it soon.

dkms install fails:

Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 7.0.3-arch1-2 (x86_64)

Quick update on Linux 6.18 support: There are patches in development for Linux 6.18 (https://gerrit.openafs.org/#/q/project:openafs+branch:master+topic:linux-6.18) which I will apply here as soon as the discussion around those patches settles a bit. For now, I recommend using linux-lts if you rely on OpenAFS.

Openafs fails with linux 6.18.3.arch1-1 but it still works with linux-lts 6.12.63-1.

[code]openafs-client-systemd-helper.sh[867]: modprobe: FATAL: Module openafs not found in directory /lib/modules/6.18.3-arch1-1[/code]

Thanks @Bevan, yes removing .cache/aura/builds/openafs-modules-dkms helped.

I just didn't have to do this previously.

Bevan commented on 2025-08-13 17:02 (UTC)

@drslmr: This error occurs if there is already a src directory in the directory you are running makepkg in and it contains already-patched sources from a previous build. Try removing that (and the pkg directory as well) and running makepkg again.

I get the following warning, which prevents upgrading:

The next patch would create the file src/cf/linux-kernel-symbol.m4,
which already exists!  Assume -R? [n]

Thanks for the followup! I just noticed that there is another patch available for Linux 6.5, so there will be another update of this package soon.
