| Summary | 0001027: [RFE] ecryptfs.ko for EL7 | ||||
| Description | Turns out my ecryptfs EL7 systems are running ElRepo Kernel-LT[1]. Can the kmod be built for EL7? It requires a minor patch (see Additional Information) to build. The ecryptfs-utils user space packages are already in EPEL7, so I'd not bother duplicating the effort on the ELRepo side. [1] Good job on that by the way, I've been installing nightly updates on this host with kernel-lt for about 3 years now and it has been so reliable I forgot that it wasn't the official kernel. | ||||

Thanks for the patch. Thanks also for being a good customer of kernel-lt. :) |

Turns out this patch has already been applied to the kmod-ecryptfs package for el7. This and couple other patches were used to build the centosplus kernel that has ecryptfs enabled. The details are in this CentOS bug report: https://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=7369 All patches were used to build kmod-ecryptfs for el7. |

Excellent :) I'm not sure how my 'yum install kmod-ecryptfs' wasn't showing this package before, but it does now.... I'd say this is very free to close. |
