UEK can run into the same issue. It is just a picked upstream kernel with a bunch of stuff that Oracle cares about dropped on top of it, and managed by a much smaller team.

It can run into the same issue, but they are all v5 kernels.

Rhel7 is running a v3 kernel; the UEK will have a lot less to do.

I will admit that they are with a few point releases on rhel9.

How many people maintain elrepo-ml?
