Synopsis: ELBA-2015-3075 can now be patched using Ksplice
Users with Oracle Linux Premier Support can now use Ksplice to patch
against the latest Oracle kernel update, ELBA-2015-3075.
INSTALLING THE UPDATES
We recommend that all users of Ksplice Uptrack on EL 6 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
* EXT4 warning during delayed allocation with O_SYNC files.
On workloads with O_SYNC files and random writes, the kernel could
trigger a warning during writeback as disk blocks were not correctly
freed.
SUPPORT
Ksplice support is available at ksplice-support_ww at oracle.com.
