Introducing the userspace interface and internal logic required to manage the lifecycle of file descriptors within a session. Previously, a session was merely a container; this change makes it a functional management unit. The following capabilities are added: A new set of ioctl commands are added, which operate on the file descriptor returned by CREATE_SESSION. This allows userspace to: - LIVEUPDATE_SESSION_PRESERVE_FD: Add a file descriptor to a session to be preserved across the live update. - LIVEUPDATE_SESSION_RETRIEVE_FD: Retrieve a preserved file in the new kernel using its unique token. - LIVEUPDATE_SESSION_FINISH: finish session The session's .release handler is enhanced to be state-aware. When a session's file descriptor is closed, it correctly unpreserves the session based on its current state before freeing all associated file resources.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
