Hi Karl, I've build and tested your PR, but without the GCC7patch, and
when I've tested it on el6, none of the guests had networkaccess.
I had to revert the bridge changes to have them working (CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER=m and CONFIG_BRIDGE=m). Why did you want the BRIDGE built-in instead of a module? Maybe you have something to setup the bridge (probably filter)properly,
or maybe something is different in the xen package between el6and el7.
Any idea? I still have to investigate the Xen pkg, and have a closerlook at those
tests I'm running.Hum strange. I switched from module to built-in because I always
had a
deprecated warning about bridge when booting CentOS 6 (and I
guess
everyone needs bridge?). I don't remember what was the exact
warning
because it's been a long time since I switched it. I don't mind
to put it
back as a module, both works for me but the warning is gone when
built-in.
Yeah better to keep things as modules, like they have been.
btw upstream Linux 4.9 LTS kernel is now at 4.9.162 :)
I suggest we:
- Rebase to linux 4.9.162.
- Drop the "set bridge to built-in instead of module" changes. Let's
keep those settings like they were earlier.
- Drop the use of gcc7 for now.
How does that sound?
Karl: Would you like to update the github PR ? Or should someone else pick up the kernel update work?
Thanks,

Sure, I will update the PR in the next few days.

I've updated my PR and tested a build, it boots well:
[root@node-tmp1 ~]# cat /proc/version Linux version 4.9.165-35.el6.x86_64 (mockbuild@build.aerisnetwork.net) (gcc version 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-23) (GCC) ) #1 SMP Sat Mar 23 14:44:16 EDT 2019
Test rpms: https://repo.aerisnetwork.com/archive/
Anthony will be able to build it on the CBS as devtoolset has been removed from the spec.
