RHBA-2015:2162 - libaio update
Synopsis
libaio update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
Updated libaio packages are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.
Description
The libaio library provides a native Linux API for asynchronous I/O operations. The POSIX asynchronous I/O facility requires libaio in order to provide kernel-accelerated asynchronous I/O capabilities.
The libaio packages have been updated to ensure correct operation on Power little endian or ARM 64-bit hardware architectures. (BZ#1026429)
Users of libaio are advised to upgrade to these updated packages.
Solution
Aarch64 support has been added to libaio.
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
