CRIU Installation on Linux Kernel 3.10 or lower:

456 Views Asked by At

CRIU tool(http://criu.org/Installation) mentions that it requires Linux Kernel 3.11 or newer. I am working on a Linux kernel 3.10 which cannot be updated to 3.11 because of some requirements and I require it to be installed in this lower version of Linux.

I have looked into different blogs but could not find it addressed anywhere. Also, criu website has not mentioned anything about how to install it on lower version Kernel or any patches for the same.

So, Can you please share any solution which can help me solve this issue or any patches which can be applied to install it in the lower kernel version.

Just backport all the necessary changes from 3.11 to 3.10. (And no, nobody knows which ones, or how many, these would be.)

It would be easier to move your own code to 3.11.
