Synopsis

kexec-tools bug fix update

Description

The kexec-tools packages contain the /sbin/kexec binary and utilities that together form the user-space component of the kernel's kexec feature. The /sbin/kexec binary facilitates a new kernel to boot using the kernel's kexec feature either on a normal or a panic reboot. The kexec fastboot mechanism allows booting a Linux kernel from the context of an already running kernel.

Bug Fix(es):

* The dracut-module-setup.sh interface renaming regex is not accurate (JIRA:Rocky Linux-47130)
