Description

Portland Linux/Unix Group General Meeting Announcement

Who: Gabriel F. T. Gomes
What: Userspace live patching with Libpulp
Where: https://li584-253.members.linode.com/PLUG
When: Thursday, August 5th, 2021 at 7pm Pacific
Why: The pursuit of technology freedom

Live patching enables software programs to be modified while running. With live patching, there's no need to "turn it off and on again". There are multiple implementations around for both kernel and userspace live patching. In this presentation, I will cover Libpulp, a framework for userspace live patching, and you will learn: what Libpulp does, how it applies patches and what a live patch looks like, the tools that it provides, how to build and test, and how to contribute.

PLUG is open to everyone and does not tolerate abusive behavior on its mailing lists or at its meetings.
