Subject: [Dng] Fedora not implementing live kernel patching, or plain avoiding it?
Hi all,

I was interested to note in an article that Fedora won't be implementing
the 4.0 live patching feature any time soon. Original here:

http://news.softpedia.com/news/Fedora-Has-No-Plans-on-Enabling-Live-Patching-for-Linux-Kernel-4-0-478796.shtml

No doubt their reasons are wise and their hearts pure. But my inner
cynic wonders if it's worth their enabling reboot-free kernel updates if
systemd needs a reboot after every update to its own fair self? :)

Cheers e ciao,
