WARNING:-
OLD KERNELS & FDRVS SHOULD NOT BE USED WITH WOOF-CE PUPPIES CREATED AFTER 2022.
STRUCTURAL CHANGES WILL LIKELY CAUSE CORRUPTION.
I've made a 64bit 5.10.105 PREEMPT (low latency) kernel. Seems faster, but not sure if anyone needs it. Ally, probably not worth archiving.
fsctx fixed in aufs source now.
Is in both Ubuntu and Slacko compatible flavours, via Puppy kernel-kit master branch, with no firmware - needs fdrv, renamed to match pup used - see below. Used gcc 9.3.0. Use at own risk.
Is mostly Spectre/Meltdown mitigated (needs microcode too - see viewtopic.php?p=9658#p9658).
Is TCP_SACK mitigated. Briefly tested, OK in ScPup64-20.06.
This has PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY disabled. PREEMPT , PREEMPT_COUNT and PREEMPTION are enabled.
THIS KERNEL HAS SND_HDA_CODEC_REALTEK ENABLED.
That causes my systems to crash, so users without realtek sound cards may need to append
kernel/linux line in syslinux/grub config thus: modprobe.blacklist=snd_hda_codec_realtek
(Realtek sound cards work without it enabled, but have more modules available with it).
wl & rtl8821ce drivers available on request.
Once downloaded, expand in an empty folder with tar -jxvf, & rename kernel-modules.sfs-5.10.105-64ozPRE to zdrv ... (same as one to be replaced) & rename vmlinuz-5.10.105-64ozPRE to vmlinuz & then substitute for originals.
