## Requiring Kernel Version
Currently, Kernel.org builders will clone and build the master branch of Linux.
In cases where a specific version of the Linux kernel needs to be built, the ZFS
buildbot supports specifying the Linux kernel to be built via commit message.
By opening a pull request against ZFS and adding `Requires-kernel:` in a commit
message, you can instruct the buildbot to use a specific Linux kernel.
Below is an example commit message that specifies a specific Linux kernel tag.
### Build Linux Kernel v 4.14
