- delinka 10y agoNo security patches to the kernel. You can certainly upgrade user-space items (daemons and the like...)
- syrrim 10y agoI heard you could hot patch the kernel as well somehow.
- PeCaN 10y agoYou can use stuff like https://github.com/dynup/kpatch https://github.com/dynup/kpatch or http://www.ksplice.com/ http://www.ksplice.com/ to apply security patches to a running Linux kernel, but that's still pretty new stuff. Stratus has been doing that since the 90s, though :-)
