package/base-files: caldata: work around dd's limitation

2020-05-28T09:22:22Z

tl;dr: dd will silently truncate the output if reading from special files (e.g. sysfs attributes) with a too large bs parameter. This problem was exposed on some RouterBOARD ipq40xx devices which use a caldata payload which is larger than PAGE_SIZE, contrary to all other currently supported RouterBOARD devices: the caldata would fail to properly load with the current scripts. Background: dd doesn't seem to correctly handle read() results that return less than requested data. sysfs attributes have a kernel exchange buffer which is at most PAGE_SIZE big, so only 1 page can be read() at a time. In this case, if bs is larger than PAGE_SIZE, dd will silently truncate blocks to PAGE_SIZE. With the current scripts using bs= count=1, the data is truncated to PAGE_SIZE as soon as the requested exceeds this value. This commit works around this problem by using `cat` in the caldata routines that can read from a file (routines that read from mtd devices are untouched). cat correctly handles partial read requests. The output is then piped to dd with the same parameters as before, to ensure that the resulting file remains exactly the same. This is a simple workaround, the downside is that it uses a pipe and one more executable, and therefore has a larger memory footprint and is slower. This is deemed acceptable considering these routines are only used at boot time. Tested-by: Robert Marko Signed-off-by: Thibaut VARÈNE

base-files: don't ship local build key when on buildbot

2020-04-12T19:35:00Z

Including the local build key in /etc/opkg/keys isn't feasible when building on the buildbot: The included key collides with its copy already in openwrt-keyring which breaks the ImageBuilder. Not including a locally generated key also makes the base-files package more reproducible. Signed-off-by: Daniel Golle

base-files: preinit: also config switch when no port roles defined

2020-04-12T14:29:02Z

current preinit code in base-files doesn't config switch when there are no port roles defined. But this kind of configuration exists on single port devices where switch vlan is simply disabled. configure reset and enable_vlan property when a switch node exist. Signed-off-by: Chuanhong Guo
