Hi,

Recently, I encountered a interesting phenomenon that CentOS 6.3
running as normal even if I (my colleague, actually) installed a
kernel that build for CentOS 7.x (e.g. kernel-3.10.0-327.el7.x86_64.rpm).

I found kernel is mismatch accidentally when I using "uname -r" to
check kernel version. So my question is what the harmness we will
get if I install a el7 rpm into a el6 system?

Thanks.

Hi

I have a small question about NIC driver (e.g. i40e) loading. Who is
responsible to load i40e driver? And how does he knows we should load
i40e, instead of ixgbe?

Thanks.

Hi,

When I build a mpt3sas rpm package, I found something interesting:
1. package name is prefixed with kmod- automatically
2.

Hi,

Sometimes, I found one of my Mellanox NIC renamed to rename6, instead
of eth1. The right names of NICs in my system should be:
eth0 Mellanox NIC
eth1 Mellanox NIC
eth2 Intel NIC
eth3 Intel NIC
eth4 Intel NIC
eth5 Intel NIC
eth0 and eth1 will combined as bond1 with mode 4.

Hi,

Is there a way to specify kernel version when (re)start kdump
service? Suppose I have install a new kernel and kdump will
generate kdump.img for new kernel in next boot. But I want kdump
to generate kdump.img for new kernel immediately, is it possible?

Thanks.

Hi,

I have a specific needs that requires yum do not to uninstall old
version when install new one. For example, I found that
yum install kernel
will install new kernel, and old kernel will remained. But
yum install <something-else>
will uninstall old version after install new one, how to disable it?

Thanks.

Hi,

I cloned <a href="https://git.centos.org/r/rpms/kernel.git" title="https://git.centos.org/r/rpms/kernel.git">https://git.centos.org/r/rpms/kernel.git</a> and found that it
only contains kernel version that CentOS released. So how do I get
the kernel version that CentOS not release officialy, e.g.
3.10.0-341.el7 and 3.10.0-383.el7 (some kernel version I found
in kernel.spec's changelog)?

Thanks.

Hi, I following the steps described in <a href="https://wiki.centos.org/Sources" title="https://wiki.centos.org/Sources">https://wiki.centos.org/Sources</a>
to get centos7.x kernel repo. But I'm wondering how to get centos6.x
kernel repo. Because when checkout branch 'c6' and found that there is
nothing.

Thanks

I enable debug of systemd-udevd by changing guest's /etc/udev/udev.conf to this:
udev_log="debug"
and regenerate initramfs. Then, we can get more message about this issue.

LTP version: ltp-full-20180118
Kernel version: 3.10.0-693.el7.x86_64
Reproduce procedure:
1. cd ltp-full-20180118; ./configure; make && make install
2.

I know dracut can update modules in initramfs, but I think it is too
slow. So I'm wondering what is the fastest way to update modules in
initramfs of CentOS 7?

Thanks!

When start service libvirtd by

service libvirtd start

the network will broke for a while and then reconnected.

Hi, I am a developer who worked on CentOS. Recently I am working on porting one of my
block drivers from CentOS 6.x to CentOS 7.x.

After I set multicast_router of bridge and it's port to 2, like following:
echo 2 > /sys/devices/virtual/net/eth81/bridge/multicast_router
echo 2 > /sys/devices/virtual/net/bond2/brport/multicast_router
Then soft lockup occured:
Message from syslogd@node-0 at Jan 9 15:47:12 ...
kernel:BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 61s!

Kernel crashed by panic("string"), but I can't see any register in vmcore:
