Synopsis: FEDORA-2018-3b24e8588b can now be patched using Ksplice
Systems running Fedora 29 can now use Ksplice to patch against the
latest Fedora kernel update, FEDORA-2018-3b24e8588b.
INSTALLING THE UPDATES
We recommend that all users of Ksplice Uptrack running Fedora 29
install these updates.
On systems that have "autoinstall = yes" in /etc/uptrack/uptrack.conf,
these updates will be installed automatically and you do not need to
take any action.
Alternatively, you can install these updates by running:
# /usr/sbin/uptrack-upgrade -y
DESCRIPTION
* Race condition when creating vcpu on SVM causes guest failure.
Missing synchronization when creating the vcpu for an SVM guest could
result in a race condition, preventing the proper creation of a memory
region and causing a disruption in guest machine creation.
* Live-lock in Multiqueue Block I/O Queue when dispatching.
In rare cases, devices utilizing the blk-mq blk_insert_cloned_request()
function might find themselves in an infinite retry loop due to an
incorrect return value. This could manifest as a livelock, potentially
wasting system resources or causing a minor denial-of-service.
SUPPORT
Ksplice support is available at ksplice-support_ww at oracle.com.
