Synopsis: 2.6.38-15.64 can now be patched using Ksplice

Systems running Ubuntu 11.04 Natty can now use Ksplice to patch
against the latest Ubuntu kernel update, 2.6.38-15.64.

INSTALLING THE UPDATES

We recommend that all users of Ksplice Uptrack on Ubuntu 11.04 Natty
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

* Prevent skb reallocation in TUN/TAP subsystem.

TUN did not reserve enough space for protocol specific data, this would lead
to re-allocation of the skb.

SUPPORT

Ksplice support is available at ksplice-support_ww at oracle.com.
