I built 4.9.161, works for me on el6:
[root@node-tmp1 ~]# cat /proc/version
Linux version 4.9.161-34.el6.x86_64 (mockbu...@build.aerisnetwork.net) (gcc
version 7.3.1 20180303 (Red Hat 7.3.1-5) (GCC) ) #1 SMP Wed Feb 27 09:48:40
EST 2019
Only one strange thing, I had to run grub-install because Grub couldn't
find root device after reboot, not sure this has something to do with the
kernel upgrade.
Kernel 4.9.161 doesn't have the patch for CVE-2019-8912 yet so we might
wait until it get released.
I updated my PR: https://github.com/CentOS-virt7/xen-kernel/pull/18
https://repo.aerisnetwork.com/archive/kernel-4.9.161-34.el6.x86_64.rpm
https://repo.aerisnetwork.com/archive/kernel-4.9.161-34.el7.x86_64.rpm
Anthony Perard already tried to build my PR on the CBS but he was not able
to enable the SCL repo (
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/sclo/$basearch/rh/) to get
devtoolset-7. We might need to get help from centos-devel.
