Is there really no information about kGraft or kPatch support in Ubuntu?

kGraft/kPatch support in Ubuntu 15.10 or 16.04?

2015-08-14 Thread Andrew Martin
Hello,

I was very excited to see live kernel patching get accepted into the mainline
kernel in 4.0. For server environments where uptime is crucial and rebooting
servers to install kernel security fixes is very disruptive, the ability to live
patch security fixes into the running kernel is a very desirable feature. Are
there any plans to add support for the kGraft/kPatch support available in 4.x
series kernels in Ubuntu Server 15.10 or 16.04? This would be a fantastic 
feature
for the next LTS release!

Thanks,

Andrew Martin
