Interface for kernel live patching
|
||
|
|
||
|
The /sys/kernel/livepatch directory contains subdirectories for
|
||
|
each loaded live patch module.

Description:
|
||
|
The patch directory contains subdirectories for each kernel
|
||
|
object (vmlinux or a module) in which it patched functions.

|
Description:
|
||
|
A writable attribute that indicates whether the patched
|
||
|
code is currently applied. Writing 0 will disable the patch
|
||
|
while writing 1 will re-enable the patch.

Description:

|
||
|
Description:
|
||
|
A writable attribute that allows administrator to affect the
|
||
|
course of an existing transition. Writing 1 sends a fake
|
||
|
signal to all remaining blocking tasks. The fake signal
|
||
|
means that no proper signal is delivered (there is no data in
|
||
|
signal pending structures). Tasks are interrupted or woken up,
|
||
|
and forced to change their patched state.

|
||
|
Description:
|
||
|
A writable attribute that allows administrator to affect the
|
||
|
course of an existing transition. Writing 1 clears
|
||
|
TIF_PATCH_PENDING flag of all tasks and thus forces the tasks to
|
||
|
the patched or unpatched state. Administrator should not
|
||
|
use this feature without a clearance from a patch
|
||
|
distributor. Removal (rmmod) of patch modules is permanently
|
||
|
disabled when the feature is used. See
|
||
|
Documentation/livepatch/livepatch.txt for more information.

Description:

The object directory contains subdirectories for each function
|
||

that is patched within the object.

KernelVersion: 3.19.0
|
||
|
Contact: live-patching@vger.kernel.org
|
||
|
Description:
|
||
|
The function directory contains attributes regarding the
|
||
|
properties and state of the patched function.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The directory name contains the patched function name and a
|
||
|
sympos number corresponding to the nth occurrence of the symbol
|
||
|
name in kallsyms for the patched object.
|
||
|
|
||
|
There are currently no such attributes.
