Announcing the release of the kmod-hyperv package into the EL6
elrepo-testing repository:

http://elrepo.org/tiki/kmod-hyperv

This package has been created as a result of the following RFE:

http://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=134

It provides the Hyper-V Synthetic Drivers (hv_blkvsc, hv_netvsc,
hv_storvsc & hv_vmbus) and is kABI compatible with all kernels from
6.0 (kernel-2.6.32-71.el6) upwards.

It is built to depend upon the specific ABI provided by a range of
releases of the same variant of the Linux kernel and not on any one
specific build.

The following files are currently syncing to the mirrors:

x86
kmod-hyperv-0.0-1.el6.elrepo.i686.rpm

x86_64
kmod-hyperv-0.0-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64.rpm

src
hyperv-kmod-0.0-1.el6.elrepo.src.rpm

End user testing of this package (& subsequent feed-back) will be
appreciated and would also speed its eventual promotion to the main
repository.

Thank you,

The ELRepo Team.
