kernel 4.x lt for production on centos
by bmor from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4ZC17)
Hi
I started to play with bcc and ebpf for profiling and tracing
I installed on dev server but want to apply on one of our production servers.
I want to install lt version and not ml, and I need advice on what lt version should I go.
Is it 4.4 , 4.14 or 4.19 ?
elrepo for lt contains 4.4 only (for rpms)
does 4.4 contain all the bpf new features?
as reading a lot of gregg blogs he mention that 4.9+ contains more additional probes for ebpf.
please advice
thanks
