Ubuntu Linux内核版本升级或降级到指定版本（基于ubuntu 18.04示例）

本文以ubuntu 18.04.4系统为例，内核版本为4.15.0-101-generic，降级到内核版本为4.15.0-76-generic。

当前系统版本信息：

root@zyg:~# uname -r
4.15.0-101-generic
root@zyg:~#
root@zyg:~# lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS
Release:        18.04
Codename:       bionic

 

1、查看当前系统已安装的内核镜像

root@zyg:~# dpkg --get-selections |grep linux-image
linux-image-4.15.0-101-generic                  install
linux-image-generic                             install

 

2、查询指定版本的linux镜像包

这里以4.15.0-76版本内核为例：

注意：

①、如果查询不到，可以在/etc/apt/sources.list配置中，加入源：deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty-security main

②、也可以在http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/网站中找到所需的deb包。

 

3、安装上面查到的指定版本内核的linux系统头文件及镜像：

4、查看当前系统中内核的启动顺序

root@zyg:~# grep menuentry /boot/grub/grub.cfg
if [ x"${feature_menuentry_id}" = xy ]; then
  menuentry_id_option="--id"
  menuentry_id_option=""
export menuentry_id_option
menuentry 'Ubuntu' --class ubuntu --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-simple-b753ddfd-2731-4c32-aa02-9a654abc99c6' {
submenu 'Advanced options for Ubuntu' $menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-advanced-b753ddfd-2731-4c32-aa02-9a654abc99c6' {
        menuentry 'Ubuntu, with Linux 4.15.0-101-generic' --class ubuntu --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-4.15.0-101-generic-advanced-b753ddfd-2731-4c32-aa02-9a654abc99c6' {
        menuentry 'Ubuntu, with Linux 4.15.0-101-generic (recovery mode)' --class ubuntu --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-4.15.0-101-generic-recovery-b753ddfd-2731-4c32-aa02-9a654abc99c6' {
        menuentry 'Ubuntu, with Linux 4.15.0-76-generic' --class ubuntu --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-4.15.0-76-generic-advanced-b753ddfd-2731-4c32-aa02-9a654abc99c6' {
        menuentry 'Ubuntu, with Linux 4.15.0-76-generic (recovery mode)' --class ubuntu --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-4.15.0-76-generic-recovery-b753ddfd-2731-4c32-aa02-9a654abc99c6' {

 

5、修改内核启动顺序

如果你升级的版本比当前内核版本高的话，默认新安装的内核就是第一顺序启动的，只需重启系统就行了，否则，则需要修改配置文件，具体如下：

root@zyg:~# vi /etc/default/grub

# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update
# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.
# For full documentation of the options in this file, see:
#   info -f grub -n 'Simple configuration'

GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden
GRUB_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="debian-installer/custom-installation=/custom find_preseed=/preseed.cfg auto preseed/file=/floppy/preseed.cfg automatic-ubiquity noprompt priority=critical locale=en_US console-setup/modelcode=evdev"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""

# Uncomment to enable BadRAM filtering, modify to suit your needs
# This works with Linux (no patch required) and with any kernel that obtains
# the memory map information from GRUB (GNU Mach, kernel of FreeBSD ...)
#GRUB_BADRAM="0x01234567,0xfefefefe,0x89abcdef,0xefefefef"

# Uncomment to disable graphical terminal (grub-pc only)
#GRUB_TERMINAL=console

# The resolution used on graphical terminal
# note that you can use only modes which your graphic card supports via VBE
# you can see them in real GRUB with the command `vbeinfo'
#GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480

# Uncomment if you don't want GRUB to pass "root=UUID=xxx" parameter to Linux
#GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true

# Uncomment to disable generation of recovery mode menu entries
#GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"

# Uncomment to get a beep at grub start
#GRUB_INIT_TUNE="480 440 1"

将GRUB_DEFAULT=0修改为GRUB_DEFAULT="Advanced options for Ubuntu>Ubuntu, with Linux 4.15.0-76-generic"，保存退出。

注：ubuntu 的旧版本(好像是16.04之前)，GRUB_DEFAULT是修改成对应序号即可，16.04之后则是要修改成：Advanced options for Ubuntu>Ubuntu, with Linux x.x.x-x-generic的形式。

6、生效配置

若上面修改了配置文件，则需执行update-grub命令，更新grub配置：

root@zyg:~# update-grub
Sourcing file `/etc/default/grub'
Generating grub configuration file ...
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-4.15.0-101-generic
Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-4.15.0-101-generic
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-4.15.0-76-generic
Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-4.15.0-76-generic
done

之后，reboot，验证是否生效。

 

可以看到，内核已经是4.15.0-76-generic的了。

 

6、移除不用的内核

查询不包括当前内核版本的其它所有内核版本：
dpkg -l | tail -n +6| grep -E 'linux-image-[0-9]+'| grep -Fv $(uname -r)

root@zyg:~# dpkg -l | tail -n +6| grep -E 'linux-image-[0-9]+'| grep -Fv $(uname -r)
ii  linux-image-4.15.0-101-generic         4.15.0-101.102                                  amd64        Signed kernel image generic

输出的内容中可能会包括内核映像的如下三种状态：
rc：表示已经被移除
ii：表示符合移除条件（可移除）
iU：已进入 apt 安装队列，但还未被安装（不可移除）。

 

我这里的4.15.0-101.102 内核为可移除状态，可以执行如下命令删除：

dpkg --purge linux-image-4.4.0-21-generic

 

7、关闭内核或包的自动更新

①、修改系统配置，在/etc/apt/apt.conf.d目录下
10periodic、20auto-upgrades配置中1改为0即可。

 

②、使用apt-mark的hold参数来禁止包更新
apt-mark hold linux-image-x.xx.x-xx-generic
apt-mark hold linux-image-extra-x.xx.x-xx-generic

解除上面设置执行，带unhold的参数即可：
sudo apt-mark unhold linux-image-x.xx.x-xx-generic
sudo apt-mark unhold linux-image-extra-x.xx.x-xx-generic
