4 Subject: [PATCH] mtd: bcm47xxpart: improve handling TRX partition size
6 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
7 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
9 When bcm47xxpart finds a TRX partition (container) it's supposed to jump
10 to the end of it and keep looking for more partitions. TRX and its
11 subpartitions are handled by a separate parser.
13 The problem with old code was relying on the length specified in a TRX
14 header. That isn't reliable as TRX is commonly modified to have checksum
15 cover only non-changing subpartitions. Otherwise modifying e.g. a rootfs
16 would result in CRC32 mismatch and bootloader refusing to boot a
19 Fix it by trying better to figure out a real TRX size. We can securely
20 assume that TRX has to cover all subpartitions and the last one is at
21 least of a block size in size. Then compare it with a length field.
23 This makes code more optimal & reliable thanks to skipping data that
