-Subject: [PATCH] mtd: bcm47xxpart: improve handling TRX partition size
-MIME-Version: 1.0
-Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
-Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
-
-When bcm47xxpart finds a TRX partition (container) it's supposed to jump
-to the end of it and keep looking for more partitions. TRX and its
-subpartitions are handled by a separate parser.
-
-The problem with old code was relying on the length specified in a TRX
-header. That isn't reliable as TRX is commonly modified to have checksum
-cover only non-changing subpartitions. Otherwise modifying e.g. a rootfs
-would result in CRC32 mismatch and bootloader refusing to boot a
-firmware.
-
-Fix it by trying better to figure out a real TRX size. We can securely
-assume that TRX has to cover all subpartitions and the last one is at
-least of a block size in size. Then compare it with a length field.
-
-This makes code more optimal & reliable thanks to skipping data that
-shouldn't be parsed.
