Subject: [PATCH v3 6/7] selftests/livepatch: Add test for state ID conflict across replace_sets
Date: Sun, 7 Jun 2026 21:16:58 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260607131659.29281-7-laoar.shao@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260607131659.29281-1-laoar.shao@gmail.com>
Livepatches with different replace_sets must not share the same state
ID. If a second livepatch attempts to reuse a state ID already
registered by a livepatch with a different replace_set, the loading
will fail.
Add a test case to verify this behavior. The test result is as follows:
$ ./test-state.sh
TEST: system state modification ... ok
TEST: taking over system state modification ... ok
TEST: compatible cumulative livepatches ... ok
TEST: incompatible cumulative livepatches ... ok
TEST: livepatches state compatibility ... ok <<<< This case
