Not to be negative but in a professional environment auditors will trip on this. No one wants to explain to auditors that its plastered from upstream somewhere. Also itβs good for new hardware support. But good to hear work is progress.

So which page do need to refer my auditor to for all the patching that is done once the kernel is EOL?
Just in case Iβve asked Lawerence on Youtube what his thoughts are on promoting EOL products to his clients

RE: XCP-ng 8.3 beta π
That is not the point Iβm trying to make.
The heart of the OS is going to be end of life December this year. You can probably plaster away but you need to keep track of everything for cveβs etc.. if you donβt want an auditor to trip on this. As they will because itβs end of life. -

RE: XCP-ng 8.3 beta π
Thanks for the explanation.
Will this be added like what there is now as an alternative kernel? -
RE: XCP-ng 8.3 beta π
Which kernel are you looking at since 4.19 will be EOL in 9 months?

It seems it would fix my iGPU passthrough issue with the NUC13

RE: XCP-ng 8.3 beta π
Any reason why xcp-ng is focussing on back porting kernel drivers and fixes to an old kernel instead of using a newer kernel and porting back in what is needed for xcp-ng?

RE: Intel iGPU passthough
Not in the VM itself.
I even went to kernel 6.6 and try it in there, all give the same issue.Something on the hypervisor side in the kernel I meant. This is 4.x something with allot of backports.
I'll probably just wait a wile before moving full XCP-NG.
But its a very nice system
