I was able to CR a simple program like sleep.

But most of the simple test programs I run, exit right after the restart 
was marked successful instead of continuing their execution.

In the kernel I see the traces:

[26108:3:c/r:restore_debug_free:145] active pid was 3, ctx->errno 0
[26108:3:c/r:restore_debug_free:147] kflags 6 uflags 0 oflags 3

[26108:3:c/r:pgarr_release_pages:102] total pages 0
[26108:3:c/r:do_restart:1446] sys_restart returns -516

What does mean -516 ? an error ?

I am running on a x86_64.

Thanks
