New Release: RHEL 8.4 on IBM Z

RHEL 8.4 is out! It ships, among others:

• IBM Fibre Channel Endpoint Security for encryption of data-in-flight
• Support for HiperSockets Converged Interface, converging a HiperSockets device and a NIC into a single logical interface
• SMC-D v2, supporting peer communication on different IP subnets and simplified configuration
  
• Ability to re-IPL from a PCIe-attached NVMe IPL device without clearing memory, improving time required for a re-IPL
