View affected systems

Topic

An updated prelink package that adds one enhancement is now available for Red
Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The prelink utility is used to modify ELF shared libraries and executables. It
reduces the number of relocations that need to be resolved at runtime, and thus
enables faster start-up.

This update adds the following enhancement:

  • To improve performance on AMD Family 15h processors, the prelink utility has

been adapted to align 32-bit libraries on 32 KB boundaries. (BZ#739460)

All users of prelink are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which adds
this enhancement.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-11259
