|abstract=Ksplice allows system administrators to apply patches to the Linux kernel without rebooting.  Ksplice can apply 88% of the Linux kernel security patches from May 2005 to May 2008 without writing any new code, and it can apply all of the security patches from that interval if a programmer writes a small amount of new code.  This talk will explain how Ksplice works.
