Subject: lspci: Unable to load libkmod resources: error -12
Date: Thu, 10 Dec 2020 18:07:32 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5FD2AA34.3000409@cox.net> (raw)

When running lspci -v on Ubuntu 20.40, I get the error message:

lspci: Unable to load libkmod resources: error -12

I tracked this down to a possible libkmod issue.  The kernel I am using
has an empty modules.builtin.aliases.bin file (modules.builtin.aliases
does not exist).

kmod_load_resources() doesn't like this.  It calls index_mm_open() which
checks the file size, sees that it is less than sizeof(hdr), error
terminates, causing kmod_load_resources() to return -ENOMEM.

kmod version 27 as shipped with ubuntu 20.04

Please copy me on any responses, I am not on this list.
