Hi Oskar,

Are you looking for example patches? Josh Poimboeuf had compiled a
nice list of CVE's that were able to be patched by kpatch. Here's a
couple from that list:

CVE-2014-0196
CVE-2014-1737
CVE-2014-2851
CVE-2014-4667
CVE-2014-4699
CVE-2014-4943
CVE-2014-4653

You could find the kernel patches corresponding to these CVE's in a
CVE database. The ones I listed above had patches that can be easily
cherry-picked and built into a kpatch module.

Hope that helps!

Jessica
