The ksplice tools have been included in Fedora since around f8. This
gives you the bits you need to create and apply ksplice updates to a
running system.

The difference with what Ksplice inc. are now offering for Ubuntu is
that they also provide a stream of pre-prepared updates for the released
Ubuntu kernels (the "Uptrack" service).
