[PATCH v3 2/3] selftests: livepatch: save and restore kprobe state
Posted by Michael Vetter 2 months, 1 week ago
Save the state of /sys/kernel/livepatch/debug/kprobes/enabled
during setup_config() and restore it during cleanup().

This is in preparation for a future commit that will add a test
that should confirm that we cannot livepatch a kprobed function
if that kprobe has a post handler.

I believe it is /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/enabled.

Personally I find this harder to read but it is a nit and Petr asked you 
to do it, but

it stays opencoded here and also elsewhere which is not great. Could it be 
consistent, please?

Otherwise I would just squash the patch to the next one.

Thank you,
Miroslav
