[Bug 440522] [NEW] Kernel modules not compiled (Stats, NFS, AFS, etc)

[Wido den Hollander]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: cachefilesd

I just upgraded my desktop to Ubuntu 9.10 because i wanted to test the
cachefilesd package for caching NFS.

My /home directory is running over NFS, so i hoped cachefilesd would
give me some performance.

After installing and configuring i saw that there was no caching started
in /var/cache/fscache.

Some searching on Google brought me to: http://osdir.com/ml/linux-
cachefs/2009-04/msg00033.html

It seems that the kernel modules are not compiled in the kernel:

root at wido-desktop:~# cat /boot/config-2.6.31-11-generic |grep FSCACHE
CONFIG_FSCACHE=m
# CONFIG_FSCACHE_STATS is not set
# CONFIG_FSCACHE_HISTOGRAM is not set
# CONFIG_FSCACHE_DEBUG is not set
# CONFIG_NFS_FSCACHE is not set
# CONFIG_AFS_FSCACHE is not set
root at wido-desktop:~# apt-cache search cachefiles
cachefilesd - support fscache on already mounted filesystem
root at wido-desktop:~#

root at wido-desktop:~# uname -a
Linux wido-desktop 2.6.31-11-generic #36-Ubuntu SMP Fri Sep 25 06:37:23 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
root at wido-desktop:~#

Is there a possibility these kernel modules are going to be compiled
into the kernel? If not, can they be delivered in a seperate package?
