Why do you care about 4.9.y? Shouldn't all of your systems be moved on
to 4.14.y or better yet, 4.19.y, at this point in time? 4.9.y is
_really_ old and obsolete and on the very cusp of "never run as a
general-purpose system" functionality, if it's not already there.
What is preventing you from upgrading the kernel on your systems to
something more modern and secure?
Yes Greg, we are working to move to latest Linux Kernel versions.
But on other side, because of demands from our consumers we also need to support v4.9.
thanks,
