Hello,

I was very excited to see live kernel patching get accepted into the mainline
kernel in 4.0. For server environments where uptime is crucial and rebooting
servers to install kernel security fixes is very disruptive, the ability to live
patch security fixes into the running kernel is a very desirable feature. Are
there any plans to add support for the kGraft/kPatch support available in 4.x
series kernels in Ubuntu Server 16.04? This would be a fantastic feature
for the next LTS release and would be a huge improvement to timely application
of security fixes in Ubuntu servers!

Thanks,

Andrew Martin
