This sort of check for reboot vs restart isn't really something
we want in drivers. I don't really know how we could find this
out assuming we even want drivers to behave differently.

Maybe Greg or someone on lkml has an idea how to best handle this case.


Hi, we don't attempt to check for restart vs reboot,
sorry for confusing. When host is going to restart/reboot, Pegasus need to restart too. Pegasus use same flow for restart and reboot.

Maybe I could change variable name "isRestart" to "isReboot"?
