Thanks for the reply.
Sorry for the typo in the earlier mail.
I have PV-HVM of CentOS 7 & I need to convert it to PV kernel.
Basically here I am trying to see whether my PV_HVM kernel is vulenrable to
this issue given in the following link
seclists.org/oss-sec/2015/q3/212
In the above link, it was mentioned that the PV kernel is not vulnerable to
this bug, but HVM is. It didnt say anything about PV-HVM.
Can you please help me in this regard?
