No Kernel-debuginfo Or Source RPM For Kernel 3.18.21-17
I’m trying to debug what I believe to be a kernel bug
(https://lists.CentOS.org/pipermail/CentOS-devel/2016-March/014463.html)
and I’m trying to set up systemtap for that.
I’m trying to set up systemtap on kernel 3.18.21-17.el6.x86_64 (Xen
4.4.3-10.el6) and it requires the kernel-debuginfo package, however I
cannot find anywhere package kernel-debuginfo-3.18.21-17.el6.x86_64.rpm. In addition, I cannot find anywhere the kernel source RPM in order to build the debuginfo RPM.
Should these packages be available in the first place? Am I missing something?

The xen kernel does not provide debuginfo. The spec file initially came from the elrepo repository, though it has been modified. I don’t think any of the elrepo kernels build debuginfo files.

There is a newer kernel available now:
http://mirror.CentOS.org/CentOS/6/virt/x86_64/xen-44/kernel-3.18.25-18.el6.x86_64.rpm
–Q9oxGK2GHK16DHqNKwDV7k2o3aFVg895n
In this case is the kernel source RPM publicly available then?

Of course, all the SRPMs are available for everything we do.
For this one specifically:
http://vault.CentOS.org/7.2.1511/virt/Source/xen-46/
you want:
http://vault.CentOS.org/7.2.1511/virt/Source/xen-46/kernel-3.18.21-17.el7.src.rpm
Thanks, Johnny Hughes
