    Allow update_verifier to reboot the device · 1a60998a
    Tianjie Xu authored
    Currently update_verifier only verifies the blocks when dm-verity is in
    'enforcing' mode; and dm-verity will reboot the device upon detection of
    errors. However, sometimes the verity mode is not guaranteed to be
    correct. When mode is 'eio' for example, dm-verity will not trigger
    a reboot but rather fail the read. So update_verifier need to take the
    responsibility to reboot the device. Otherwise the device will continue
    to boot without setting the flag "isSlotMarkedSuccessful".
