media: Documentation: mali-c55: Use v4l2-isp version identifier

2026-01-06T09:14:13+00:00

The Mali C55 driver uses the v4l2-isp framework, which defines its own versioning numbers. Do not use the Mali C55 specific version identifier in the code example in the documentation of the Mali C55 stats and params metadata formats.

liveupdate: luo_core: Live Update Orchestrator

2025-11-27T22:24:37+00:00

Patch series "Live Update Orchestrator", v8. This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel subsystem designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a kexec-based reboot. This capability is critical for cloud environments, allowing hypervisors to be updated with minimal downtime for running virtual machines. LUO achieves this by preserving the state of selected resources, such as memory, devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition. As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving memfd file descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such as guest RAM or any other large memory region, to be maintained in RAM across the kexec reboot. The other series that use LUO, are VFIO [1], IOMMU [2], and PCI [3] preservations. Github repo of this series [4]. The core of LUO is a framework for managing the lifecycle of preserved resources through a userspace-driven interface. Key features include: - Session Management Userspace agent (i.e. luod [5]) creates named sessions, each represented by a file descriptor (via centralized agent that controls /dev/liveupdate). The lifecycle of all preserved resources within a session is tied to this FD, ensuring automatic kernel cleanup if the controlling userspace agent crashes or exits unexpectedly. - File Preservation A handler-based framework allows specific file types (demonstrated here with memfd) to be preserved. Handlers manage the serialization, restoration, and lifecycle of their specific file types. - File-Lifecycle-Bound State A new mechanism for managing shared global state whose lifecycle is tied to the preservation of one or more files. This is crucial for subsystems like IOMMU or HugeTLB, where multiple file descriptors may depend on a single, shared underlying resource that must be preserved only once. - KHO Integration LUO drives the Kexec Handover framework programmatically to pass its serialized metadata to the next kernel. The LUO state is finalized and added to the kexec image just before the reboot is triggered. In the future this step will also be removed once stateless KHO is merged [6]. - Userspace Interface Control is provided via ioctl commands on /dev/liveupdate for creating and retrieving sessions, as well as on session file descriptors for managing individual files. - Testing The series includes a set of selftests, including userspace API validation, kexec-based lifecycle tests for various session and file scenarios, and a new in-kernel test module to validate the FLB logic. Introduce LUO, a mechanism intended to facilitate kernel updates while keeping designated devices operational across the transition (e.g., via kexec). The primary use case is updating hypervisors with minimal disruption to running virtual machines. For userspace side of hypervisor update we have copyless migration. LUO is for updating the kernel. This initial patch lays the groundwork for the LUO subsystem. Further functionality, including the implementation of state transition logic, integration with KHO, and hooks for subsystems and file descriptors, will be added in subsequent patches. Create a character device at /dev/liveupdate. A new uAPI header, , will define the necessary structures. The magic number for IOCTL is registered in Documentation/userspace-api/ioctl/ioctl-number.rst.
