* kernel: don't auto attach ubi on read errorMathias Kresin2018-07-241-5/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | With a10a204aab26cc ("kernel: make ubi auto-attach check for a tar file magic") the check for the magic was added without considering a failing mtd_read(). If the read fails, no check is done and the mount code is called straight away. Failing with an error message for such cases seems to me the cleaner way, as it would allow to spot hidden/workaround issues. Signed-off-by: Mathias Kresin <dev@kresin.me>
* kernel: handle bad blocks in ubi auto attach codeMathias Kresin2018-07-241-4/+18
| | | | | | | | | | The first block(s) of the ubi mtd device might be bad. We need to take care on our own to skip the bad block(s) and read the next one(s). Don't treat recoverable read errors as fatal and check for the UBI magic if the data of a block could be recovered using ECC or similar. Signed-off-by: Mathias Kresin <dev@kresin.me>
* kernel: improve ubi auto attach code readabilityMathias Kresin2018-07-241-26/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move the put_mtd_device() called on multiple error conditions to a goto label to use it later for more error conditions. The early return on failed open of the mtd device and mismatching mtd type allows to get rid of one level of indentation. By jumping to the cleanup code, a refcount bug is fixed for the wrong flash type condition. While at it, make clear that we only check for the UBI magic if the read from flash was successful.

* kernel/4.14: add missing newline character to UBI messagesGabor Juhos2017-12-241-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A few UBI messages lacks the trailing newline character which leads to ugly lines in the bootlog like this: [ 6.649159] UBI error: no valid UBI magic found inside mtd6[ 6.667751] Freeing unused kernel memory: 2196K Add a newline character to the end of the messages to fix it. After the fix the line from above looks better in the log: [ 6.609182] UBI error: no valid UBI magic found inside mtd6 [ 6.627599] Freeing unused kernel memory: 2132K Signed-off-by: Gabor Juhos <juhosg@freemail.hu>
* kernel: generic: Add kernel 4.14 supportHauke Mehrtens2017-12-161-0/+73
This adds initial support for kernel 4.14 based on the patches for kernel 4.9. In the configuration I deactivated some of the new possible security features like: CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED CONFIG_SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM And these overlay FS options are also deactivated: CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_INDEX CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_REDIRECT_DIR I activated this: CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE CONFIG_POSIX_TIMERS CONFIG_SLAB_MERGE_DEFAULT CONFIG_WATCHDOG_HANDLE_BOOT_ENABLED I am not sure if I did the porting correct for the following patches: target/linux/generic/backport-4.14/020-backport_netfilter_rtcache.patch target/linux/generic/hack-4.14/220-gc_sections.patch target/linux/generic/hack-4.14/321-powerpc_crtsavres_prereq.patch target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/305-mips_module_reloc.patch target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/611-netfilter_match_bypass_default_table.patch target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/680-NET-skip-GRO-for-foreign-MAC-addresses.patch Signed-off-by: Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@hauke-m.de>
