Hi, not to mention the war again but you do have a alternative (stream) and the fabled kernel-ml which has been working fine in production servers according to my experiences (fleet of over 400 servers virtual and physical). And assuming you are talking about CentOS 8.x there are several alternative distros out there to choose from if you do need a point release rather then rolling forward (as stream is-ish). I might have missed something during the threads lifespan but what are the reasons for not using the kernel-ml packages?
