Linux 6.18.55.mx64.499 builds the EDAC memory controller drivers as
modules (CONFIG_EDAC=y, CONFIG_EDAC_{AMD64,IE31200,SBRIDGE,SKX}=m),
while 6.12.98.mx64.492 does not build EDAC at all. As none of them is
whitelisted, loading is denied, for example on *sigusr2* (Coffee Lake S,
8086:3e30):
2026-10-09T14:35:44.362482+02:00 sigusr2 modprobe: kmod whitelist: module 'ie31200_edac' not in whitelist, denied
Whitelist all EDAC modules shipped with 6.18.55.mx64.499:
amd64_edac
ie31200_edac
sb_edac
skx_edac
skx_edac_common (dependency of skx_edac)

If maintaining the whitelist becomes to much burden: Should we allow any modules during boot, then switch to whitelist-only mode just before user controlled software is allowd to run? |

I think it’s the current approach is still bearable, and would not change it yet. |
