  I saw discussion at
https://forums.rockylinux.org/t/some-elrepo-kmod-packages-will-no-longer-be-available-for-rhel-8-10-and-9-4/13798/9
  is there hope for those disabled modules for  8.10 and 9.4?

You can keep your hope high. :)

Do you have affected hardware? If so, you can help us by running a
test. We are currently releasing our kmods built for EL 9.4 to the
elrepo-testing repository.

We provide these kernels for hardware testing in an effort to identify
new/updated drivers which can then be targeted for backporting as kmod
packages. Meanwhile, these kernels may provide interim relief to
people with non-functional hardware. We stress that we consider such
kernels as a last resort for those who are unable to get their
hardware working using the RHEL-9 kernel with supplementary kmod
packages.

These packages are provided "As-Is" with no implied warranty or
support. Using the kernel-ml may expose your system to security,
performance and/or data corruption issues. Since timely updates may
not be available from the ELRepo Project, the end user has the
ultimate responsibility for deciding whether to continue using the
kernel-ml packages in regular service.

The packages are intentionally named kernel-ml so as not to conflict
with the RHEL-9 kernels and, as such, they may be installed and
updated alongside the regular kernel. The kernel configuration is
based upon a default RHEL-9 configuration with added functionality
enabled as appropriate.

If a bug is found when using these kernels, the end user is encouraged
to report it upstream to the Linux Kernel Bug Tracker [2] and, for our
reference, to the ELRepo bug tracker [3]. By taking such action, the
reporter will be assisting the kernel developers, Red Hat and the Open
Source Community as a whole.

Thank you,

reference, to the ELRepo bug tracker [3]. By taking such action, the
reporter will be assisting the kernel developers, Red Hat and the Open
Source Community as a whole.

Thank you,

The ELRepo Team.

  thanks for the good news. yes I do have some old hardware
(mlx4/mpt3sas) but they are currently on production. so I need to test
EL 9.4 first to see if it can be upgraded safely.  I saw new
elrepo-testing modules for mlx4 and mpt3sas. I will try to test it
soon!

EL 9.4 upgrade is not smooth at our site. We need to fix the problem
before we can upgrade more machines.
anyway I think elrepo is fine. the modules
"kmod-drbd9x-9.2.8-1.el9_4.elrepo.x86_64.rpm" and
"kmod-mlx4-4.0-8.el9_4.elrepo.x86_64.rpm"  are working fine under RHEL
9.4

We provide these kernels for hardware testing in an effort to identify
new/updated drivers which can then be targeted for backporting as kmod
packages. Meanwhile, these kernels may provide interim relief to
people with non-functional hardware. We stress that we consider such
kernels as a last resort for those who are unable to get their
hardware working using the RHEL-9 kernel with supplementary kmod
packages.

These packages are provided "As-Is" with no implied warranty or
support. Using the kernel-ml may expose your system to security,
performance and/or data corruption issues. Since timely updates may
not be available from the ELRepo Project, the end user has the
ultimate responsibility for deciding whether to continue using the
kernel-ml packages in regular service.

The packages are intentionally named kernel-ml so as not to conflict
with the RHEL-9 kernels and, as such, they may be installed and
updated alongside the regular kernel. The kernel configuration is
based upon a default RHEL-9 configuration with added functionality
enabled as appropriate.

If a bug is found when using these kernels, the end user is encouraged
to report it upstream to the Linux Kernel Bug Tracker [2] and, for our
reference, to the ELRepo bug tracker [3]. By taking such action, the

Subject: [elrepo] Announcement: EL7 Updated kernel-ml Package Set [6.9.1-1]
Message-ID: <CABA31Drit+ZvxFvWW_asi9jgKqTUboy9tDAgeXTjwhTmautr1Q@mail.gmail.com>

Announcing the release of the kernel-ml-6.9.1-1.el7.elrepo package set
into the EL7 elrepo-kernel repository:

https://elrepo.org/wiki/doku.php?id=kernel-ml

The upstream changelog:

https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v6.x/ChangeLog-6.9.1

The following files are currently synchronising to our mirror sites:

nosrc
kernel-ml-6.9.1-1.el7.elrepo.nosrc.rpm

Please note that as of kernel-ml version 6.9.1 we are unable to
continue providing the perf and python-perf packages.

Note: As a consequence of the upstream decision [1] to raise the
minimum required version of gcc to 5.1, the distribution compiler can
no longer be used in the kernel build process. We now use gcc-9, which
is available from the devtoolset-9 package.

We provide these kernels for hardware testing in an effort to identify
new/updated drivers which can then be targeted for backporting as kmod
packages. Meanwhile, these kernels may provide interim relief to
people with non-functional hardware. We stress that we consider such
kernels as a last resort for those who are unable to get their
hardware working using the RHEL-7 kernel with supplementary kmod
packages.

These packages are provided "As-Is" with no implied warranty or
support. Using the kernel-ml may expose your system to security,
performance and/or data corruption issues. Since timely updates may
not be available from the ELRepo Project, the end user has the
ultimate responsibility for deciding whether to continue using the
kernel-ml packages in regular service.

The packages are intentionally named kernel-ml so as not to conflict
with the RHEL-7 kernels and, as such, they may be installed and
updated alongside the regular kernel. The kernel configuration is
based upon a default RHEL-7 configuration with added functionality
enabled as appropriate.

If a bug is found when using these kernels, the end user is encouraged
to report it upstream to the Linux Kernel Bug Tracker [2] and, for our
reference, to the ELRepo bug tracker [3]. By taking such action, the
reporter will be assisting the kernel developers, Red Hat and the Open

We don't have such plans at the moment. When the current kernel-lt
(6.1.x for el9) approaches end of life (projected Dec 2026), we will
go through a process of selecting a new best suitable candidate to
replace it. The later half of 2026 will be the time to have that
discussion.

But if you have a compelling argument or reason for updating the
kernel-lt version earlier, we can discuss it now.

OK - thanks

I was after a 'recent' long term kernel for el9 - and noticed kernel.org has 6.6 as a long term release stream, so was just wondering why there wasn't an EL Repo kernel-lt build to match ?

I can confirm wireguard, ftsteutates and mpt3sas (id 1000:0072) from the 
elrepo-testing repo are working fine on RHEL 8.10.

Thanks a lot to all involved.

We provide these kernels for hardware testing in an effort to identify
new/updated drivers which can then be targeted for backporting as kmod
packages. Meanwhile, these kernels may provide interim relief to
people with non-functional hardware. We stress that we consider such
kernels as a last resort for those who are unable to get their
hardware working using the RHEL-9 kernel with supplementary kmod
packages.

These packages are provided "As-Is" with no implied warranty or
support. Using the kernel-ml may expose your system to security,
performance and/or data corruption issues. Since timely updates may
not be available from the ELRepo Project, the end user has the
ultimate responsibility for deciding whether to continue using the
kernel-ml packages in regular service.

The packages are intentionally named kernel-ml so as not to conflict
with the RHEL-9 kernels and, as such, they may be installed and
updated alongside the regular kernel. The kernel configuration is
based upon a default RHEL-9 configuration with added functionality
enabled as appropriate.

If a bug is found when using these kernels, the end user is encouraged
to report it upstream to the Linux Kernel Bug Tracker [2] and, for our
reference, to the ELRepo bug tracker [3]. By taking such action, the
reporter will be assisting the kernel developers, Red Hat and the Open
Source Community as a whole.

Thank you,

The ELRepo Team.

reference, to the ELRepo bug tracker [2]. By taking such action, the
reporter will be assisting the kernel developers, Red Hat and the Open
Source Community as a whole.

Thank you,

Subject: [elrepo] Announcement: EL7 Updated kernel-lt Package Set
 [5.4.277-1] Dedicated to the memory of Alan Bartlett R.I P.
Message-ID: <CABA31Dq1cb+Bvnq-G+DowJfmG6r-s0omjf6gy_wKtZ6ydMWQfw@mail.gmail.com>

Announcing the release of the kernel-lt-5.4.277-1.el7.elrepo package
set into the EL7 elrepo-kernel repository:

https://elrepo.org/wiki/doku.php?id=kernel-lt

This release is dedicated to the memory of Alan Bartlett, who passed
away one year ago on May 31, 2023.

Alan first launched a packaged mainline kernel for RHEL through The
ELRepo Project in November 2010 [0], and single-handedly maintained
their release until he passed away in 2023. We dedicate this release
of the kernel package set to remember Alan and the immense amount of
work and dedication he gave to this project for more than a decade.
Rest in peace Alan, we miss you.

Note: As a consequence of the upstream decision [1] to raise the
minimum required version of gcc to 5.1, the distribution compiler can
no longer be used in the kernel build process. We now use gcc-9, which
is available from the devtoolset-9 package.

We provide these kernels for hardware testing in an effort to identify
new/updated drivers which can then be targeted for backporting as kmod
packages. Meanwhile, these kernels may provide interim relief to
people with non-functional hardware. We stress that we consider such
kernels as a last resort for those who are unable to get their
hardware working using the RHEL-7 kernel with supplementary kmod
packages.

These packages are provided "As-Is" with no implied warranty or
support. Using the kernel-lt may expose your system to security,
performance and/or data corruption issues. Since timely updates may
not be available from the ELRepo Project, the end user has the
ultimate responsibility for deciding whether to continue using the
kernel-lt packages in regular service.

The packages are intentionally named kernel-lt so as not to conflict
with the RHEL-7 kernels and, as such, they may be installed and
updated alongside the regular kernel. The kernel configuration is
based upon a default RHEL-7 configuration with added functionality
enabled as appropriate.

If a bug is found when using these kernels, the end user is encouraged
to report it upstream to the Linux Kernel Bug Tracker [2] and, for our
reference, to the ELRepo bug tracker [3]. By taking such action, the
reporter will be assisting the kernel developers, Red Hat and the Open
Source Community as a whole.

Thank you,

The ELRepo Team.
