From: Sanjib Das on gitlab.com https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/merge_requests/1304#note_2322466938 Hi All, I would like to request some additional information. Is this patch applicable to only RHEL or are other flavors also require this to secure FIPS certification successfully? Regardless of above query, I just tried to patch this on vanilla 5.10 kernel (kernel.org), but I found context mismatch. Lines surrounding the new changes donot match with the current state of the file (example, drivers/char/random.c). New/different APIs are used in file_operations structure function pointer initialization (just an example). Is there any patch available for kernel 5.10? If the answer is NO, is it safe to patch manually in 5.10 kernel (assuming the issue is common across all linux flavors)? Thanking you in advance.
