Hi all,
I need sources for latest Centos 8.2 kernel (kernel-4.18.0-193.14.2.el8_2).
Since they are (now customarily) not available on vault.centos.org, I am attempting to build from git.centos.org.
However, I am unable to find the exact commit to build from.
On https://git.centos.org/rpms/kernel/commits/c8, I see 13.2 and 14.3, but not 14.2 that actually shipped.
$git log --format="%C(auto) %h %s" origin/c8 | head -n 20
08e2843 debrand kernel-4.18.0-193.14.3.el8_2
284ac7b import kernel-4.18.0-193.14.3.el8_2
Looking at upstream, Red Hat never released kernel-4.18.0-193.14.2.el8_2 into the wild. The RHEL update (https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2020:3218) was kernel-4.18.0- 193.14.3.el8_2, which is why that's the version in git (pushed from Red Hat's internal RelEng systems). -193.14.2.el8_2 appears to be something unique to CentOS. Looking at the changelog of the CentOS package vs the RHEL one, this changelog entry is missing:
- Mon Jul 20 2020 Bruno Meneguele bmeneg@redhat.com [4.18.0-
193.14.3.el8_2]
- Reverse keys order for dual-signing (Frantisek Hrbata) [1837433 1837434]
{CVE-2020-10713}
Something to do with differences between the way RHEL and CentOS do Secure Boot signing, perhaps?
Thanks. I guess that makes sense. But I still have no idea how to obtain the sources to build. I would backtrack to a previous one (193.13.2), but that one is missing kernel-modules-extra rpm package, even though koji[1] shows it was built. This is the first time I saw an actual binary rpm missing, which is worrying.
So I have backtrack two levels, to 193.6.3.
Any idea when we can expect release of 193.14.3?
