I just finished building a kernel based on kernel-2.6.32-71.18.2.el6.src.rpm. I hand applied the patches. Like you said one applied clean the other applied with a fuzz offset of -36 (IIRC). I am installing now to test.
My rebuild was simply cp the /boot/config-2.6.32-71.18.2.el6.i686 to .config;make oldconfig;make rpm
That is why I was asking about the proper way.
I have just installed the kernel and will now start testing.
Great. Please keep us posted. If the patches work as expected, they will be a worthy addition to the cplus kernel.
I got a kernel built with the patches using the wiki and your notes in 0004586 (thanks). I am pleased to report that they appear to work as advertised. With: net.ipv6.conf.default.forwarding = 2 net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_ra = 2
Router solicitations were issued and router advertisements were accepted and I could still forward packets.
I didn't make new patches, I simply did %define with_fuzzy_patches 1
Also what should the normal rpmbuild line be? I ended up doing rpmbuild -bb --target=`uname -m` kernel.spec --with firmware --without debug --without debuginfo
The first time I didn't have --with firmware and the kernel wouldn't install.
