-QEMU does not reload kernel image on guest reboot (direct kernel boot)
-Description of problem:
-I am using virtiofs as root filesystem with QEMU direct kernel boot. The kernel is loaded from the guests directory structure that is exported from the host.
-
-The problem is that QEMU does not reload the kernel image file from disk during a guest reboot. This means it is not possible to update the kernel from inside the guest and do a simple reboot to load it. A full power cycle of the guest is required to load the updated kernel image.
-Steps to reproduce:
-1. Migrate a Linux guest to virtiofs as root fs. 
-2. Enable QEMU direct kernel boot and point to guest's kernel in the exported root filesystem. 
-3. Boot. 
-4. Update the kernel inside the guest. Overwrite the existing kernel image
-5. Issue `reboot` inside the guest. 
-6. When the guest reboots, the old kernel is still booted, even though the image file was overwritten. 
-7. Issue `poweroff` inside the guest. 
-8. Issue `virsh start <guest-vm>`
-9. Now the new kernel image is booted.
