Merge tag 'livepatching-for-5.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/livepatching/livepatching

Pull livepatching updates from Petr Mladek:

 - New API to track system state changes done be livepatch callbacks. It
   helps to maintain compatibility between livepatches.

 - Update Kconfig help text. ORC is another reliable unwinder.

 - Disable generic selftest timeout. Livepatch selftests have their own
   per-operation fine-grained timeouts.

29d968e130 selftests/livepatch: Disable the timeout
Commit 852c8cbf34 ("selftests/kselftest/runner.sh: Add 45 second
timeout per test") introduced a timeout per test. Livepatch tests could
run longer than 45 seconds, especially on slower machines. They do not
hang and they detect if something goes awry with internal accounting.

Better than looking for an arbitrary value, just disable the timeout for
livepatch selftests.

CONFIG_TEST_LIVEPATCH=m isn't set.

fbb01c5247 selftests/livepatch: push and pop dynamic debug config
The livepatching self-tests tweak the dynamic debug config to verify
the kernel log during the tests.  Enhance set_dynamic_debug() so that
the config changes are restored when the script exits.

Note this functionality needs to keep in sync with:
  - dynamic_debug input/output formatting
  - functions affected by set_dynamic_debug()

  For example, push_dynamic_debug() transforms:
    kernel/livepatch/transition.c:530 [livepatch]klp_init_transition =_ "'%s': initializing %s transition\012"
  to the following:
    file kernel/livepatch/transition.c line 530 =_

527d37e9e5 selftests/livepatch: add test skip handling
Add a skip() message function that stops the test, logs an explanation,
and sets the "skip" return code (4).

Before loading a livepatch self-test kernel module, first verify that
we've built and installed it by running a 'modprobe --dry-run'.  This
should catch a few environment issues, including !CONFIG_LIVEPATCH and
!CONFIG_TEST_LIVEPATCH.  In these cases, exit gracefully with the new
skip() function.

abfe3c4560 selftests/livepatch: use TEST_PROGS for test scripts
Adrian reports that 'make -C tools clean' results in removal of the
livepatch selftest shell scripts.

As per the selftest lib.mk file, TEST_PROGS are for test shell scripts,
not TEST_GEN_PROGS.  Adjust the livepatch selftest Makefile accordingly.

fbb76d579d livepatch/selftests: use "$@" to preserve argument list
The livepatch selftest functions.sh library uses "$*" and an
intermediate variable to extract and then pass arguments from function
to function call.  The effect of this combination is that the argument
list is flattened into a single argument.  Sometimes this is benign, but
in cases like __load_mod(), the modprobe invocation will interpret all
the module parameters as a single parameter.

Drop the intermediate variable and use the "$@" special parameter as
described in the bash manual.
