bootconfig: Support embedding a bootconfig file in kernel

2022-04-26T21:58:51+00:00

This allows kernel developer to embed a default bootconfig file in
the kernel instead of embedding it in the initrd. This will be good
for who are using the kernel without initrd, or who needs a default
bootconfigs.
This needs to set two kconfigs: CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED=y and set
the file path to CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED_FILE.

Note that you still need 'bootconfig' command line option to load the
embedded bootconfig. Also if you boot using an initrd with a different
bootconfig, the kernel will use the bootconfig in the initrd, instead
of the default bootconfig.

memblock: use memblock_free for freeing virtual pointers

2021-11-06T20:30:41+00:00

Rename memblock_free_ptr() to memblock_free() and use memblock_free()
when freeing a virtual pointer so that memblock_free() will be a
counterpart of memblock_alloc()

The callers are updated with the below semantic patch and manual
addition of (void *) casting to pointers that are represented by
unsigned long variables.

    identifier vaddr;
    expression size;

bootconfig: Initialize ret in xbc_parse_tree()

2021-10-27T15:22:09+00:00

The do while loop continues while ret is zero, but ret is never
initialized. The check for ret in the loop at the while should always be
initialized, but if an empty string were to be passed in, q would be NULL
and p would be '\0', and it would break out of the loop without ever
setting ret.

Set ret to zero, and then xbc_verify_tree() would be called and catch that
it is an empty tree and report the proper error.

lib/bootconfig: Make xbc_alloc_mem() and xbc_free_mem() as __init function

2021-10-26T21:23:45+00:00

Since the xbc_alloc_mem() and xbc_free_mem() are used from
the __init functions and memblock_alloc() is __init function,
make them __init functions too.

bootconfig: Cleanup dummy headers in tools/bootconfig

2021-10-11T02:16:02+00:00

Cleanup dummy headers in tools/bootconfig/include except
for tools/bootconfig/include/linux/bootconfig.h.
For this change, I use __KERNEL__ macro to split kernel
header #include and introduce xbc_alloc_mem() and
xbc_free_mem().
