commit 879615f5db1d0a86afd99a67d284a8df6fd85be4 Author: Pawel Wieczorkiewicz <wipawel@xxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Tue Nov 26 10:07:50 2019 +0000 Commit: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@xxxxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Fri Dec 13 14:45:32 2019 +0000 livepatch: Always check hypervisor build ID upon livepatch upload This change is part of a independant stacked livepatch modules feature. This feature allows to bypass dependencies between modules upon loading, but still verifies Xen build ID matching. In order to prevent (up)loading any livepatches built for different hypervisor version as indicated by the Xen Build ID, add checking for the payload's vs Xen's build id match. To achieve that embed into every livepatch another section with a dedicated hypervisor build id in it. After the payload is loaded and the .livepatch.xen_depends section becomes available, perform the check and reject the payload if there is no match.
