The computing platform that supports civil infrastructure must continue to work for a long time, and thus the primary goal of super-long-term-support (SLTS) kernel workgroup is to provide CIP kernels with more than ten years maintenance period to fulfill the required level of reliability, sustainability, and security. The CIP kernel workgroup participates into LTS review process and works with real-time Linux Project to standardize real-time enhancement. Currently, SLTS kernel workgroup maintains kernel 4.4 and 4.19 in standard and real-time kernel, respectively.In this presentation, SLTS kernel workgroup will share the policy and process to maintain and release SLTS standard and real-time kernel. Also, SLTS kernel workgroup will introduce the open source utilities such as “Classify-failed-patches” and “Linux kernel CVE tracker” for long-term maintenance. The presentation will go over it as well as the next steps and plans.
