Hello Arch users,

I just upgraded to linux 4.0.1-1 in [core] from linux 4.0.0-2 in [testing]. In recent days, I've heard of lots of news that since kernel 4.0, no reboot is necessary for upgrading kernel. However, uname still gives me the old kernel version:

$ uname -r 4.0.0-2-ARCH

Is it necessary to run additional commands for completing kernel upgrading, or do I have to wait for some time? If I have to wait, how long should I wait for?

Thanks for any related information or opinions!

Best Regards,

Yen Chi Hsuan

If you're interested in something, you should really read the news instead of scanning the headlines. Live patching requires some work. Doug
