Well, not as its own. There are a series floating around for CRIU not merged
yet since I need to rebase it on new CRIU release and resend, but there is
a sample https://lists.openvz.org/pipermail/criu/2017-February/036041.html
- the file added into epoll, then dup'ed and original is closed, so kcmp
with dup'ed instance should match kcmp call.
If you can wait I'll try to find some time on the week and rather update
kernel selftests for this new kcmp mode and CC you on the patch. Sounds OK?
