[Test Case] kexec has been tested to be able to load a 4.18 kernel. [Regression Potential] As the fix is only applied to the x86_64 portion of kexec, only this platform should be affected. Package with fix has been tested there. When running kexec with 4.18, it fails. $ sudo kexec -l /boot/vmlinuz-4.18.0-5-generic --initrd /boot/initrd.img-4.18.0-5-generic --append "`cat /proc/cmdline`" Unhandled rela relocation: R_X86_64_PLT32 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kexec-tools/+bug/1791804/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
