  Patch (Unix) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The patch file (also called a patch for short) is a text file that consists of a list of differences and is produced by running the related diff program with the original and updated file as arguments.
Patches described here should not be confused with binary patches distributed by closed-source software manufacturers to update binary files containing the program to a new release.
Patch then uses this context to apply the change independently of line numbers, although it does use the line numbers in the diffs as a starting point.

 patch
Interpret the patch file as a context difference (the output of the utility diff when the -c or -C options are specified).
If the patched file is processed with the C preprocessor, where the macro define is defined, the output shall contain the changes from the patch file; otherwise, the output shall not contain the patches specified in the patch file.
Each patch shall contain zero or more lines of filename identification in the format produced by diff -c, and one or more sets of diff output, which are customarily called hunks.

 patch
The patch utility reads a source (patch) file containing any of the three forms of difference (diff) listings produced by the diff utility (normal, context or in the style of ed) and apply those differences to a file.
Multiple patches for a single file will be applied to the intermediate versions of the file created by any previous patches, and will result in multiple, concatenated versions of the file being written to outfile.
Each patch must contain zero or more lines of filename identification in the format produced by diff -c, and one or more sets of diff output, which are customarily called hunks.

 patch(1): apply diff file to original - Linux man page
Skip patches whose headers do not say which file is to be patched; patch files even though they have the wrong version for the Prereq: line in the patch; and assume that patches are not reversed even if they look like they are.
However, the results are guaranteed to be correct only when the patch is applied to exactly the same version of the file that the patch was generated from.
Traditional patch used a complicated (and incompletely documented) method to intuit the name of the file to be patched from the patch header.

A patch can be an upgrade (adding increased features), a bug fix, a new hardware driver or update to address new issues such as security or stability problems.

Typically, a patch can be installed over the top of an existing program, but again this will depend on the supplier and the nature of the patch.
