Linux内核替换的一种简单方法

2022-12-23,,,,

前言

使用现有centos的镜像,在海光机器上出现了无法运行的情况,grub引导后就只剩下光标一直在闪,无任何字符输出。这种情况大概率是因为Linux内核无法运行在海光的CPU上所导致的。

已得知Linux内核在4.20版本后支持海光CPU,而在之前的版本中,则需要为内核打专门的patch,并编译内核。考虑到目前centos的软件源中并没有提供4.20版本以上的内核,而在其余开发环境中已有现成的5.15.11版本内核,故决定手动替换

具体步骤

想要替换内核至5.15.11版本,至少需要从其他环境中复制如下文件:

/boot/vmlinuz-5.15.11-1.el7.x86_64
/boot/initramfs-5.15.11-1.el7.x86_64.img
/lib/modules/5.15.11-1.el7.x86_64/目录

随后更新grub配置,确认grub中包含新内核的引导:

grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

如果initrd存在定制,那么还需要为新内核生成一个initrd:

dracut -v -f -N --kver 5.15.11-1.el7.x86_64

最后重启验证新内核是否能够正常运行。

"The main changes in this cycle were: - Add support for the "Dhyana" x86 CPUs by Hygon: these are licensed
based on the AMD Zen architecture, and are built and sold in China,
for domestic datacenter use. The code is pretty close to AMD
support, mostly with a few quirks and enumeration differences. (Pu
Wen) - Enable CPUID support on Cyrix 6x86/6x86L processors" * 'x86-cpu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:

内核rpm包中包含的文件

以内核版本4.18.0为例,首先使用rpm命令查询内核rpm包中包含有哪些文件,如下所示,rpm包中包含的文件有:

内核文件:/boot/vmlinuz-4.18.0-348.7.1.el8_5.x86_64
initrd压缩包:/boot/initramfs-4.18.0-348.7.1.el8_5.x86_64.img
