  <summary>Recommended update for kexec-tools</summary>
  <description>This update for kexec-tools fixes the following issues:

- Xen 4.7 introduced _soft-reset_ for HVM domUs. (bsc#1176606, bsc#1174508)

  This host feature removes the requirement to _un-ballon_ the `domU` prior `kexec`.
  With Xen 4.13 _cpuid faulting_ became the default, which affects the approach used before to detect the _domU_ type.
  As a result, invoking kexec in _dom0_ failed.
