My understanding is that you try to load the patch repeatedly but it always fails after the 1 minute timeout. It means that it always starts from the beginning (no livepatched process). Is there any chance to try it with a longer timeout, for example, one hour? It should increase the chance if there are more problematic kthreads. > > This low timeout might be useful for testing.

I have missed this detail. Miroslav told me that we have solved something similar some time ago, see https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220507174628.2086373-1-song at kernel.org/ Honestly,

Hi, I am running CentOS Linux release 7.7.1908 (Core). Does CentOS Linux kernel 3.10.0-1062.1.1.el7.x86_64 support kernel updates without rebooting (Live Patching)? I look forward to hearing from you and thanks in advance. Best Regards, Kaushal

Instead of storing the map per CPU provide and use per task storage. That prepares for local kmaps which are preemptible. The context switch code is preparatory and not yet in use because kmap_atomic() runs with preemption disabled. Will be made usable in the next step. The context switch logic is safe even when an interrupt happens after clearing or before restoring the kmaps. The kmap index in

Hello, While testing Virt-SIG Xen 4.12 rpms on CentOS7 I noticed the following problem with libvirt/virt-manager when manually installing a new HVM guest from virt-manager GUI.. basicly the VM installation won't start, because libvirt/virt-manager is not able to start the VM, due to "missing" qemu-system-i386 binary: Unable to complete install: 'unsupported configuration:

This series adds new functions to the mmu interval notifier API to allow device drivers with MMUs to dynamically mirror a process' page tables based on device faults and invalidation callbacks. The Nouveau driver is updated to use the extended API and a set of stand alone self tests is added to help validate and maintain correctness. The patches are based on linux-5.5.0-rc6 and are for
