Issue: Kernel Modules Missing for Container-Management Feature in Custom Jetson Nano Yocto Image
Problem:
I am building a custom Linux image for the Jetson Nano using Yocto with the linux-tegra
kernel. During the build process, I encounter the following error:
ERROR: sdv-image-full-1.0-r0 do_rootfs: Could not invoke dnf.

Error:
Problem: package packagegroup-sdv-core-1.0-r0.noarch requires container-management, but none of the providers can be installed
- conflicting requests
- nothing provides kernel-module-dm-thin-pool needed by container-management-1.0.0+git0+65e00358fa-r0.armv8a
- nothing provides kernel-module-xt-masquerade needed by container-management-1.0.0+git0+65e00358fa-r0.armv8a
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages)
The error is related to the missing kernel modules required for the container-management feature:
-
kernel-module-dm-thin-pool
(for Device Mapper thin provisioning) -
kernel-module-xt-masquerade
(for Netfilter NAT functionality) -
Yocto Layers in Use:
/layers/meta /layers/meta-poky /layers/meta-leda /layers/meta-leda/meta-leda-bsp /layers/meta-leda/meta-leda-components /layers/meta-leda/meta-leda-distro /layers/meta-rauc /layers/meta-kanto /layers/meta-virtualization /layers/meta-oe /layers/meta-filesystems /layers/meta-python /layers/meta-networking /layers/meta-tegra
-
Kernel Configuration:
The custom kernel configuration forlinux-tegra
(located atmeta-tegra/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-tegra-4.9/custom-defconfig
) includes:
CONFIG_DM_THIN_PROVISIONING=m
CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_MASQUERADE=m
These configurations should enable the required modules as loadable kernel modules (m
).
- Container-Management Recipe:
The recipe forcontainer-management
(found inmeta-kanto/recipes-containers/container-management/container-management_git.bb
) has the following dependency:
RDEPENDS:${PN} += "kernel-module-dm-thin-pool kernel-module-xt-masquerade"
Environment:
- Yocto version: [insert Yocto version]
- Jetson Nano
- Custom Linux kernel (linux-tegra)
Expected Behavior:
The kernel modules dm-thin-pool
and xt-masquerade
should be included in the image, and the build should succeed without errors related to missing kernel modules.
Current Behavior:
The build fails with errors about missing kernel modules (kernel-module-dm-thin-pool
and kernel-module-xt-masquerade
) required by the container-management
package.
Any guidance on resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.
