SDC driver after patching meltdown bug

Hi,

we are on centos 7.4.1708 and need to upgrade the kernel to 4.14.11-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64 to fix the meltdown bug. We use scaleio 2.0.7536.0  and rexray which needs the right SDC package for the running kernel. I checked ftp://ftp.emc.com/RH/ but no luck. Does this version already exist? Can i compile it myself?

Thanks,

Mike

    Mike,

    I see that you've got a support ticket opened, so please make sure to follow up there as well.

    Build 2.0.7536 is a bit old, and as you've jumped to the 4.14 kernel I suspect that the module just isn't compatible.

    CentOS' meltdown/spectre remediation email that I saw advised to go to 3.10.0-693.11.6.el7. Doing so will maintain kernel ABI compatibility with what the current SDC module expects now, and -once it's supported- you can go to 4.14.
