From db8bed8082dc6185153cdef67cdd5aa7526e8126 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pasha Tatashin Date: Tue, 25 Nov 2025 11:58:33 -0500 Subject: kexec: call liveupdate_reboot() before kexec MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Modify the kernel_kexec() to call liveupdate_reboot(). This ensures that the Live Update Orchestrator is notified just before the kernel executes the kexec jump. The liveupdate_reboot() function triggers the final freeze event, allowing participating FDs perform last-minute check or state saving within the blackout window. If liveupdate_reboot() returns an error (indicating a failure during LUO finalization), the kexec operation is aborted to prevent proceeding with an inconsistent state. An error is returned to user.
