RHEL has kpatch: http://rhelblog.redhat.com/2014/02/26/kpatch/ Technologies like kpatch, ksplice, kGraft, etc. will make it so you don't have to reboot to get kernel patches. However, I'm more concerned with updating software like glibc, openssl, nss, etc. for running processes. It doesn't matter if you're running Linux or FreeBSD or other UNIXes, if you update the underlying software applications and libraries under the user's processes, there's always a chance (and quite likely) that something will break. -- Jonathan Billings <billings at negate.org>
