kpatch: dynamic kernel patching
===============================
kpatch is a Linux dynamic kernel patching tool which allows you to patch a
running kernel without rebooting or restarting any processes. It enables
sysadmins to apply critical security patches to the kernel immediately, without
having to wait for long-running tasks to complete, users to log off, or
for scheduled reboot windows. It gives more control over uptime without
sacrificing security or stability.

kpatch is currently in active development. For now, it should _not_ be used
in production environments.
