Hi,
Could CentOS kernel keepers apply following patch on current kernel? http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/95785/
(snip)
Could this be applied on stock CentOS kernel so that I could return on un-customized kernel use?
Because CentOS is a bug-for-bug clone of the upstream vendor's, it is not possible to modify or apply patches to the distro kernel. But this could be done in the centosplus kernel.
PS: bugs.centos.org is apparently unable to send email out, otherwise I would have written this as a bug report...
You can now go ahead and do an RFE (under the 'CentOSPlus' category) if you so wish.
Submitted the request on behalf of the OP:
http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=5054
A kernel update ( 2.6.32-131.12.1.el6 ) came out upstream today. This patch will be added to the centosplus kernel.
