tools/bootconfig: fix fd leak in load_xbc_file() on fstat failure

2026-04-18T08:31:03+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3b2c2ab4ceb82af484310c3087541eab00ea288b ] If fstat() fails after open() succeeds, the function returns without closing the file descriptor. Also preserve errno across close(), since close() may overwrite it before the error is returned.

bootconfig: Fix testcase to increase max node

2023-04-05T09:23:34+00:00

[ Upstream commit b69245126a48e50882021180fa5d264dc7149ccc ] Since commit 6c40624930c5 ("bootconfig: Increase max nodes of bootconfig from 1024 to 8192 for DCC support") increased the max number of bootconfig node to 8192, the bootconfig testcase of the max number of nodes fails. To fix this issue, we can not simply increase the number in the test script because the test bootconfig file becomes too big (>32KB). To fix that, we can use a combination of three alphabets (26^3 = 17576). But with that, we can not express the 8193 (just one exceed from the limitation) because it also exceeds the max size of bootconfig. So, the first 26 nodes will just use one alphabet. With this fix, test-bootconfig.sh passes all tests.

tools/bootconfig: Fix tracing_on option checking in ftrace2bconf.sh

[ Upstream commit 32ba9f0fb027cc43074e3ea26fcf831adeee8e03 ] Since tracing_on indicates only "1" (default) or "0", ftrace2bconf.sh only need to check the value is "0".

commit 55ed4560774d81d7343223b8fd2784c530a9c6c1 upstream. Add ftrace.instance.INSTANCE.tracing_on support to ftrace2bconf.sh and bconf2ftrace.sh. commit 8490db06f914 ("tracing/boot: Add per-instance tracing_on option support") added the per-instance tracing_on option, but forgot to update the helper scripts.

tools/bootconfig: Store size and checksum in footer as le32

2020-12-01T04:22:11+00:00

Store the size and the checksum fields in the footer as le32 instead of u32. This will allow us to apply bootconfig to the cross build initrd without caring the endianness.

tools/bootconfig: Align the bootconfig applied initrd image size to 4

2020-11-19T13:55:44+00:00

Align the bootconfig applied initrd image size to 4. To fill the gap, the bootconfig command uses null characters in between the bootconfig data and the footer. This will expands the footer size but don't change the checksum. Thus the block image of the initrd file with bootconfig is as follows. [initrd][bootconfig][(pad)][size][csum]["#BOOTCONFIG\n"] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/160576522046.320071.8550680670010950634.stgit@devnote2 Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware)
