Hi Phil,
Not sure if you've had time to look at this? As mentioned middleware, like docker-ce, is preventing us from moving to el8.
Thanks Dan
Hi Dan,
I've succeeded in backporting mac802154_hwsim for you as a standalone kmod package for el7. I've updated your request here:

Hi Phil, ok that's great thanks. I have a colleague working through vroc/fake raid issues we're having when using kernel-ml-5.8.6-2.el7.elrepo.x86_64.rpm by switching to linux soft raid. Also we dont have a supported docker-ce for el8 yet.

Hello John & Frank,
We have tried both Centos8 and installing kernel-ml-5.8.6-2.el7.elrepo.x86_64.rpm but both options are
too
"bleeding" edge for our other middleware that still require the Centos 7 3.10.0-1127.18.2.el7.x86_64. Hence the request.
Thanks
I have tried backporting the module to el7 for you as requested at elrepo, but it is not trivial and so far I've not been able to get the code to compile cleanly. I'll see if I can have another look at it this weekend, but I'm not overly hopeful given the age of the el7 kernel.
As others have said, it's never going to appear in the CentOS kernel as it's not present in upstream in RHEL7.
Regards,
Phil
Thanks for your efforts Phil. Great job.
