livepatch has a set of selftests that are used to validate the behavior of
the livepatching subsystem. One of the testcases in the livepatch
testsuite is test-ftrace.sh, which among other things, validates that
livepatching gracefully fails when ftrace is disabled. In the event that
ftrace cannot be disabled using 'sysctl kernel.ftrace_enabled=0', the test
will fail later due to it unexpectedly successfully loading the
test_klp_livepatch module.
While the livepatch selftests are careful to remove any of the livepatch
test modules between testcases to avoid this situation, ftrace may still
fail to be disabled if another trace is active on the system that was
enabled with FTRACE_OPS_FL_PERMANENT. For example, any active BPF programs
that use trampolines will cause this test to fail due to the trampoline
being implemented with register_ftrace_direct(). The following is an
example of such a trace:
tcp_drop (1) R I D tramp: ftrace_regs_caller+0x0/0x58
(call_direct_funcs+0x0/0x30)
direct-->bpf_trampoline_6442550536_0+0x0/0x1000
In order to make the test more resilient to system state that is out of its
control, this patch updates set_ftrace_enabled() to detect sysctl failures,
and skip the testrun when appropriate.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
