Introduce a kexec-based selftest, luo_kexec_simple, to validate the
end-to-end lifecycle of a Live Update Orchestrator session across a
reboot.
While existing tests verify the uAPI in a pre-reboot context, this test
ensures that the core functionality—preserving state via Kexec Handover
and restoring it in a new kernel—works as expected.
The test operates in two stages, managing its state across the reboot by
preserving a dedicated "state session" containing a memfd. This mechanism
dogfoods the LUO feature itself for state tracking, making the test
self-contained.
The test validates the following sequence:
Stage 1 (Pre-kexec):
- Creates a test session (test-session).
- Creates and preserves a memfd with a known data pattern into the test
session.
- Creates the state-tracking session to signal progression to Stage 2.
- Executes a kexec reboot via a helper script.
Stage 2 (Post-kexec):
- Retrieves the state-tracking session to confirm it is in the
post-reboot stage.
- Retrieves the preserved test session.
- Restores the memfd from the test session and verifies its contents
match the original data pattern written in Stage 1.
- Finalizes both the test and state sessions to ensure a clean
teardown.
The test relies on a helper script (do_kexec.sh) to perform the reboot and
a shared utility library (luo_test_utils.c) for common LUO operations,
keeping the main test logic clean and focused.
