No subject

every time Red Hat releases a new RHEL kernel. When I last spoke with him about
this in the #rpmfusion IRC channel, he wanted someone else would step up and
take responsibility for bumping and rebuilding the EL branches. Keeping up with
Fedora is a chore, and without Fedora's open and transparent Koji/Bodhi
process, I imagine that keeping up with RHEL kernel version bumps would be even
more of a challenge.

On the subject of Red Hat's kABI, I recently found out that in order to be
completely safe with kABI, your kernel module can only use a limited set of
symbols that are explicitly covered under Red Hat's kABI agreement. If your
kernel uses symbols that are not on Red Hat's list, there's a chance that the
kmod will still work, but the reality is that all bets are off, and the safest
course is to rebuild for every single RHEL kernel release. (If you're a vendor
and you want to influence Red Hat's list, you need to become a Red Hat Partner
and submit a list of the symbols that you need to be in the kABI agreement.)
