101 ksplice-apply - Apply an on-disk Ksplice update to the running kernel
105 B<ksplice-apply> I<UPDATE_TARBALL>
109 B<ksplice-apply> takes as input a Ksplice update tarball, as generated by
110 L<ksplice-create(8)>, and it applies the update to the running binary kernel.
112 Specifically, B<ksplice-apply> does the following:
118 Inserts the "primary" module into the kernel.
122 Inserts the "helper" module into the kernel (doing so applies the
127 Removes the "helper" module from the kernel (that module is not needed
128 after the update has been applied).
132 The update tarball used with B<ksplice-apply> must have been generated for the
133 running kernel's version.
139 =item B<--debug=>I<DEBUG_LEVEL>
141 Applies the update with debugging output enabled. Recommended only for
142 debugging. I<DEBUG_LEVEL> should be an integer between 0 and 4. B<--debug=4>
143 provides the most debugging information.
153 Provides basic (pre-run matching and kernel stack check) debugging output.
157 Also provides full kernel stack check debugging output.
161 Also provides full pre-run matching debugging output.
165 Also provides full Ksplice relocation debugging output.
