Hi Pablo/Fabian,
The timing is amazing, I raised my question this morning (28th) but had failed to realise that yum-cron yesterday coincidentally delivered 5.10 to our complement of Pi(s).
Also, you're right,I hadn't noticed that wireguards.ko has been in 5.4 from .88 or possibly earlier.
In answer to the question, all the Pi(s) have been built from the CentOS-Userland-7-armv7hl-RaspberryPI-Minimal images, hopefully that explains my good fortune.
Many thanks - Martin

I guess it depends on the image you're using, but if you used the rpi variant (using rpi kernel, so normally images tagged with *RaspberryPI* and located on mirrors, like http://centos-altarch.reloumirrors.net/7.9.2009/isos/armhfp/) , it's automatic
Try a yum update on my rpi3b+ and it triggers the update :
Installing: raspberrypi2-kernel armv7hl 5.10.23-v7.1.el7 centos-kernel 21 M
Are your using the *generic* image instead ? As that repo doesn't have (yet) 5.10 : http://mirror.centos.org/altarch/7/kernel/armhfp/kernel-generic/Packages/ while they are there for rpi kernel : http://mirror.centos.org/altarch/7/kernel/armhfp/kernel-rpi2/Packages/

Hi Guys,
Is there a view on when yum-update on rpi could be expected to deliver the 5.10 kernel ?
I'm forwarding to using wireguard across a large number of deployed Pi(s) with the kernel module being kept up-to-date when yum-update applies kernel updates.
