1. Please describe the problem:

modprobe nandsim results in 

modprobe: FATAL: Module nandsim not found in directory /lib/modules/5.8.18-200.fc32.x86_64

grep -i nand /boot/config-5.8.18-200.fc32.x86_64 returns

CONFIG_MTD_NAND_CORE=m
# CONFIG_MTD_ONENAND is not set
CONFIG_MTD_NAND_ECC_SW_HAMMING=m
# CONFIG_MTD_NAND_ECC_SW_HAMMING_SMC is not set
CONFIG_MTD_RAW_NAND=m
# CONFIG_MTD_NAND_ECC_SW_BCH is not set

# CONFIG_MTD_SPI_NAND is not set

2. What is the Version-Release number of the kernel:

5.8.18-200.fc32.x86_64


3. Did it work previously in Fedora? If so, what kernel version did the issue
   *first* appear?  Old kernels are available for download at
   https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=8 :

No.


4. Can you reproduce this issue? If so, please provide the steps to reproduce
   the issue below:

Yes.


5. Does this problem occur with the latest Rawhide kernel? To install the
   Rawhide kernel, run ``sudo dnf install fedora-repos-rawhide`` followed by
   ``sudo dnf update --enablerepo=rawhide kernel``:


6. Are you running any modules that not shipped with directly Fedora's kernel?:


7. Please attach the kernel logs. You can get the complete kernel log
   for a boot with ``journalctl --no-hostname -k > dmesg.txt``. If the
   issue occurred on a previous boot, use the journalctl ``-b`` flag.

I am a developer working with nand flash and I would like to be able to use these modules under Fedora (>= 32). I currently must switch to an ubuntu machine to do my testing due to lack of the necessary kernel modules.

Richard Weinberger is a developer on the nandsim and associated kernel modules and has offered his assistance: richard

Comment 10 Fedora Program Management 2021-04-29 17:07:23 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 32 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 32 on 2021-05-25.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
Fedora 'version' of '32'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 32 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 11 Ben Cotton 2021-05-25 17:50:44 UTC
Fedora 32 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2021-05-25. Fedora 32 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
