[PATCH v3 3/3] selftests/livepatch: Test interaction with ftrace_enabled

From: Miroslav Benes
Date: Wed Oct 16 2019 - 07:33:29 EST


From: Joe Lawrence <joe.lawrence@xxxxxxxxxx>

Since livepatching depends upon ftrace handlers to implement "patched"
code functionality, verify that the ftrace_enabled sysctl value
interacts with livepatch registration as expected. At the same time,
ensure that ftrace_enabled is set and part of the test environment
configuration that is saved and restored when running the selftests.
