Thanks Manoj! A few comments on your prepared package.
- We need to fix in zesty and yakkety as well as xenial
- Version for xenial should be 1:2.0.10-1ubuntu2.1
- Is arm64_build.patch needed? I know we had to add it to Debian for compat w/
sid's toolchain, but I'm not sure we need it for Ubuntu
** Description changed:
[IMPACT]
* kexec-tools in Xenial (16.04) currently does not support ARM64
architecture.
* Backport support for ARM64 arch from upstream
https://github.com/horms/kexec-tools
* Majority of the patches are contained in kexec/arch/arm64/ except for
33 matches
