All,
I have compiled an experimental 3.18.12 kernel from the 3.18 LTS kernel branch from kernel.org for the Xen4Centos 6 tree.
http://people.centos.org/hughesjr/xen-kernel/x86_64/
This should be considered extremely experimental at this point and is unsigned.
I have tested it on 2 generic servers and it worked fine on both of those with sata and gigabit ethernet.
Please test this and provide feedback on this list and George can get this into the virt6-testing tree and I'll release it along with the xen-4.4.2 rpms from there.
I would think this is the logical LTS kernel to use moving forward as the 3.10.x LTS will be discontinued soon (in September 2015), and it has the longest lifetime of all the LTAS choices:

Thanks, Johnny Hughes

So did you backport the blktap patches?

Yes, I did use the blktap 2.5 stuff from the other kernel.

are you using same .config as centos kernel does + xen options ?
