Hi there, The first patch moves the current livepatch tests to selftests, allowing it be better suited to contain more complex tests, like using userspace C code to use the livepatched kernel code. As a bonus it allows to use "gen_tar" to export the livepatch selftests, rebuild the modules by running make in selftests/livepatch directory and simplifies the process of creating and debugging new selftests. It keeps the ability to execute the tests by running the shell scripts, like "test-livepatch.sh", but beware that the kernel modules might not be up-to-date. The second patch includes a new test to exercise the functionality to livepatch a heavy hammered function. The test uses getpid in this case. I tested the changes by running the tests within the kernel source tree and running from the gen_tar extracted directory.
