Thanks to work from Johnny, linux 3.18.12 with all the x4c blktap
goodness have been built and are now in the virt6-testing repo. I've
also uploaded libvirt 1.2.15. As you may have seen earlier today,
virt6-testing also includes an updated 4.4.2 package with the latest
security update (XSA-133).
The kernel has had some basic testing (by myself, Johnny, and another
community member), but libvirt is at the moment untested, so caveat
emptor.
With such a large change, I want to leave both up for a few weeks
before pushing them into the main repo. Please test them and report
any errors you find.
As a reminder, you can use the virt6-testing repo by putting the
following file into /etc/yum.repos.d:
[virt-testing]
name=VirtSIG-\$releasever - Xen Testing
baseurl=http://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt6-testing/\$basearch/os/
gpgcheck=0
enabled=0
For the adventurous, there are (as yet untested) kernel and xen
packages in virt7-xen-44-candidate as well. I'll be pushing those to
testing once I've actually had a chance to do set up my testing
environment.
Peace,
-George
