Subject: [PATCH 4/5] selftests/liveupdate: Add stress-sessions kexec test
Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2026 20:02:36 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260414200237.444170-5-pasha.tatashin@soleen.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260414200237.444170-1-pasha.tatashin@soleen.com>
Add a new test that creates 2000 LUO sessions before a kexec
reboot and verifies their presence after the reboot. This ensures
that the linked-block serialization mechanism works correctly for
a large number of sessions.
