Rocky Linux: RLBA-2021:3052 kexec-tools bug fix and enhancement update

September 2, 2022
An update for kexec-tools is now available for Rocky Linux 8.

Summary

An update for kexec-tools is now available for Rocky Linux 8.


The kexec-tools packages contain the /sbin/kexec binary and utilities that together form the user-space component of the kernel's kexec feature. The /sbin/kexec binary facilitates a new kernel to boot using the kernel's kexec feature either on a normal or a panic reboot. The kexec fastboot mechanism allows booting a Linux kernel from the context of an already running kernel.
