RHBA-2015:1843 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
kernel bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated kernel packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.4 Advanced Update Support.
Description
The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating
system.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- Prior to this update, multiple instances trying to copy the same file
triggered a race condition in the perf buildid-cache that could truncate system
libraries and other files. With this update, unique temporary files are used
when copying to the buildid directory to prevent the aforementioned race
condition from occurring. (BZ#1253730)
- Previously, reloading or removing edac modules on a system using the
i7core_edac module could lead to a number of warning messages to be returned and
a subsequent kernel crash. The underlying source code has been patched, and the
kernel no longer crashes when operating with edac modules. (BZ#1255489)
Users of kernel are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix
these bugs. The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
