Qubes OS version (e.g., R3.2):

R3.2

Affected TemplateVMs (e.g., fedora-23, if applicable):

fedora-24 / minimal
fedora-23 / minimal


Expected behavior:

Actual behavior:

current official qubes kernel version is 4.4.38-11
the official kernel sources (package kernel-devel) are only at version 4.4.31-11
in order to use the kernel sources, a link needs to be created manually currently

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

General notes:

After fiddling with this for a while i realized the modules for the kernel get mounted automatically in read-only.
Is there any process to add modules in a comfortable way?
Or do i have to do a work around?

@marmarek, is this intentional (i.e., not a bug)?

Generally the most elegant way to have custom modules is to use VM-provided kernel, see here: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/managing-vm-kernel/#using-kernel-installed-in-the-vm

As for kernel-devel version not matching the kernel - yep, this is a bug, apparently updated kernel-devel was uploaded only to dom0 repository.

linux-kernel v4.4.55-11 (r3.2) #16

marmarek added a commit to marmarek/qubes-linux-kernel that referenced this issue May 15, 2017

Upload kernel-devel package built for dom0 to VM repository
When VM kernel is provided by dom0 (the default in Qubes 3.x), VM
kernel-devel package should match kernel actually installed in dom0.

Fixes QubesOS/qubes-issues#2641
