* images: fix boot failures on NAND with small sub pagesJonas Gorski2019-09-141-1/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SquashFS has a minimum block size of at least 1k, so we need to make sure the last data block is also at least that big. This is not an issue on NOR or SD CARD devices, since their rootfs partitions go all the way to the end of the usable space. But on NAND with ubiblock, the rootfs partition will be the exact space, rounded up to LEB size. Unfortunately, some NAND chips with small sub pages have a LEB size of x.5 kiB. This can cause the the last data block to be less than 1k, which will cause the last block to be inaccessible, causing boot failures as seen on MR24: [ 1.532960] block ubiblock0_3: created from ubi0:3(rootfs) [ 1.538457] ubiblock: device ubiblock0_3 (rootfs) set to be root filesystem [ 1.552847] SQUASHFS error: squashfs_read_data failed to read block 0x621472 [ 1.559896] squashfs: SQUASHFS error: unable to read id index table [ 1.566474] VFS: Cannot open root device "(null)" or unknown-block(254,0): error -5 Since on most NOR devices, the start of the squashfs partition is not aligned. Since the start of the rootfs_data partition there is dependend on the SquashFS size, we cannot just always pad it, as the padding could creep into the rootfs_data partition, breaking jffs2. So fix this by ensuring a squashfs rootfs is always a multiple of 1k only for UBI and NAND sysupgrade images. Fixes #2460 without affecting NOR devices.

* build: Drop user/group ID/name from sysupgrade.tarSven Eckelmann2019-01-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | Tar will automatically record the user/group ID and name for files/directories. This reduces the reproducibility of the sysupgrade.tar because most of the people don't use the same username as the OpenWrt buildserver. Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>
* build: Use stable file ordering in sysupgrade.tarSven Eckelmann2019-01-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The file ordering in the current sysupgrade depends on the order of file in a filesystem. This is often already in a sane (alphabetical order) but this is not always the case. For example, the OpenWrt build servers return a different ordering. This breaks the reproducibility of the sysupgrade tarballs significantly and also resulted in images which cannot be used for upgrades on devices like the OpenMesh A42/A62.

* build: rename sysupgrade-nand to sysupgrade-tarJo-Philipp Wich2016-07-291-0/+73
Now that the "sysupgrade-nand" step is used by non-NAND targets as well, rename it to "sysupgrade-tar" to make it more generic. Signed-off-by: Jo-Philipp Wich <jo@mein.io>
