I'll see if I can have another look at it this weekend, but I'm not overly hopeful given the age of the el7 kernel. As others have said, it's never going to appear in the CentOS kernel as it's not present in upstream in RHEL7. Regards, Phil Thanks for your efforts Phil.

Hi Phil, Not sure if you've had time to look at this? As mentioned middleware, like docker-ce, is preventing us from moving to el8.

Hi Phil, ok that's great thanks. I have a colleague working through vroc/fake raid issues we're having when using kernel-ml-5.8.6-2.el7.elrepo.x86_64.rpm by switching to linux soft raid. Also we dont have a supported docker-ce for el8 yet.

Hello John & Frank, We have tried both Centos8 and installing kernel-ml-5.8.6-2.el7.elrepo.x86_64.rpm but both options are too "bleeding" edge for our other middleware that still require the Centos 7 3.10.0-1127.18.2.el7.x86_64.

According to this webpage: https://mininet-wifi.github.io/sixlowpan/ "6LoWPAN is supported by Mininet-WiFi thanks to the fakelb and mac802154_hwsim module. Both modules have been developed to support 6lowpan, but mac802154_hwsim (which is supported from Linux Kernel version 4.18) is gradually replacing fakelb." Since Centos 8 is on Kernel 4.18, maybe it's already native there. Doesn't help the chap with Centos 7 though. -- Can we uninstall 2020 and install it again? This one has a virus.
