[LU-3292] kernel update for 3.0.74-0.6.6 sles11sp2

• Status: Resolved
• Project: Lustre
• Fix Version/s: Lustre 2.4.0
• Type: Bug
• Priority: Minor
• Reporter: Bob Glossman (Inactive)
• Assignee: Bob Glossman (Inactive)

Environment

sles11sp2

• Severity: 3

Description

Fetching the most recent update from the sles11sp2 repos the kernel version is raised from 3.0.34 to 3.0.74-0.6.6. The committed set of kernel patches for sles11sp2 server kernels no longer applies cleanly. It looks like some of the changes from the existing patches have now landed upstream in the kernel update. I think a refresh of the base kernel patches is needed for this kernel version.

The ldiskfs patch set also needs refresh for this version. errors seen:

I've verified that the sles11sp2 server build completes OK with these incremental changes and deletions to the base and ldiskfs patches on the most recent update.
Would like some careful review to make sure that the remaining patches still make sense, especially in ldiskfs.
