背景

前段时间 Ubuntu22.4 自动更新内核后，nvidia 535.86 安装不上了，编译报错ERROR: modpost: GPL-incompatible module nvidia.ko uses GPL-only symbol 'rcu_read_unlock_strict'

大概有这么个公告：

Problem with 535 Nvidia drivers and 5.15.0-106 kernel Recently, an ubuntu update to the 5.15.0-106 kernel produced the following error from the nvidia driver when it compiled the kernel module:

ERROR: modpost: GPL-incompatible module nvidia.ko uses GPL-only symbol 'rcu_read_unlock_strict'

We typically freeze our driver updates so that we can do them at planned downtimes – the fix was to unhold the held nvidia-driver packages and upgrade to nvidia-driver-550

在 forum 上也确定了确实是内核更新带来的 bug，所以简单粗暴回退内核更新尝试解决

回退 kernel

# 查看当前内核版本
uname -a
# 查看grub可选内核版本
grep menuentry /boot/grub/grub.cfg

输出类似下面这样：

说明可选内核版本有Ubuntu, with Linux 5.15.0-119-generic、Ubuntu, with Linux 5.15.0-105-generic、Ubuntu, with Linux 5.15.0-84-generic、Ubuntu, with Linux 5.15.0-78-generic

# 查看nvidia驱动版本匹配
ls /var/lib/dkms/nvidia/
# 修改GRUB文件
sudo vi /etc/default/grub

修改GRUB_DEFAULT=0的0值为"Advanced options for Ubuntu>合适的内核版本"

# 更新grub
sudo update-grub
# 重启
sudo reboot
