selftests/livepatch: adopt to newer sysctl error format

2020-07-15T06:54:35Z

With procfs v3.3.16, the sysctl command doesn't print the set key and value on error. This change breaks livepatch selftest test-ftrace.sh, that tests the interaction of sysctl ftrace_enabled: Make it work with all sysctl versions using '-q' option. Explicitly print the final status on success so that it can be verified in the log. The error message is enough on failure.

selftests/livepatch: Don't clear dmesg when running tests

2020-06-19T08:46:42Z

Inspired by commit f131d9edc29d ("selftests/lkdtm: Don't clear dmesg when running tests"), keep a reference dmesg copy when beginning each test. This way check_result() can compare against the initial copy rather than relying upon an empty log.

selftests/livepatch: Test interaction with ftrace_enabled

2019-11-04T14:33:16Z

Since livepatching depends upon ftrace handlers to implement "patched" code functionality, verify that the ftrace_enabled sysctl value interacts with livepatch registration as expected. At the same time, ensure that ftrace_enabled is set and part of the test environment configuration that is saved and restored when running the selftests.
