   This is the biggest change here. It introduces the runtime
   verification that is necessary for running Linux on safety critical
   systems.

   It allows for deterministic automata models to be inserted into the
   kernel that will attach to tracepoints, where the information on
   these tracepoints will move the model from state to state.

   If a state is encountered that does not belong to the model, it will
   then activate a given reactor, that could just inform the user or
