Uncompressing with xz is a must!

I think you should use 4.6.0 for the patch.

I’m a bit confused about whether we can apply the patch to any previous version or if it has to be a specific one. I think I need to review that part again.

I feel like we should be using xz to uncompress the patch, but I can't recall if we need to apply it to the 4.6.0 or 4.6.3 source.

I remember practicing a question like this, and I think applying the patch to version 4.6.3 makes sense since it's the closest version.

I feel confident about this one. Uncompress the file, then use patch to apply the uncompressed patch to the 4.6.4 kernel source directory.

Hmm, good point. I think the key is to make sure we're applying the patch to the correct source directory, whether that's 4.6.4 or a previous version.

I'm pretty sure we need to apply the patch to the 4.6.4 kernel source directory. That's the version we're trying to build, right?

Okay, let's think this through step-by-step. First, we need to uncompress the patch file, then apply it to the correct kernel source directory.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know Spring Boot has a lot of features, but I'm not totally clear on what a "starter dependency" is. I'll have to think this through carefully.

Okay, let's see. RDS stands for Relational Database Service, so it probably supports the most common relational databases like MySQL, SQL Server, and PostgreSQL. I'll go with the one that's not a relational database.

I know SBI and LIC were pretty early players, so they're likely within that phase. I'm leaning towards Kothari Pioneer.

Hmm, I'll go with D and C. We should apply it to version 4.6.3. Those steps seem logical to me.

I think it might be B. Kernel version 4.6.0 is a good base to apply the patch.

I agree with D. After you uncompress, you would need to match the kernel version. So maybe B or C?

I believe one of them is definitely D, uncompress using xz. It makes sense right before applying the patch.
