openSUSE Recommended Update: Recommended update for kexec-tools ______________________________________________________________________________ Announcement ID: openSUSE-RU-2020:2353-1 Rating: moderate References: #1174508 #1176606 Affected Products: openSUSE Leap 15.2 ______________________________________________________________________________ An update that has two recommended fixes can now be installed. Description: This update for kexec-tools fixes the following issues: - Xen 4.7 introduced _soft-reset_ for HVM domUs. (bsc#1176606, bsc#1174508) This host feature removes the requirement to _un-ballon_ the `domU` prior `kexec`. With Xen 4.13 _cpuid faulting_ became the default, which affects the approach used before to detect the _domU_ type. As a result, invoking kexec in _dom0_ failed. This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-15-SP2:Update update project.
