-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2023-93fab3be92 2023-10-22 08:24:31.513236 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : kexec-tools Product : Fedora 39 Version : 2.0.27 Release : 2.fc39 URL : None Summary : The kexec/kdump userspace component Description : kexec-tools provides /sbin/kexec binary that facilitates a new kernel to boot using the kernel's kexec feature either on a normal or a panic reboot. This package contains the /sbin/kexec binary and ancillary utilities that together form the userspace component of the kernel's kexec feature. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Only try to reset crashkernel when kdump.service is enabled Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2243068 Currently, when kexec-tools is installed, the kernel will automatically have the crashkernel parameter set up. In the case where users only want the kexec reboot feature, this is not what users want as a 1G-RAM system will lose 192M memory. Considering Fedora's systemd preset policy has kdump.service disabled and RHEL' has kdump.service enabled, this patch makes kexec-tools only reset crashkernel when kdump.service is enabled. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Wed Oct 18 2023 Coiby Xu <coxu@xxxxxxxxxx> - 2.0.27-2 - Only try to reset crashkernel when kdump.service is enabled -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #2243068 - kdump is enabled by default on desktops https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2243068 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.
