From: Jeff Kletsky <git-comm...@allycomm.com> Certain boards have limitations on U-Boot that prevent flashing of images where the kernel size exceeds a threshold, yet sysupgrade can sucessfully manage larger kernels. The current check-size will remove the target artifact if its total size exceeds the threshold. If applied after append-kernel, it will remove the kernel, but the remaining image-assembly steps will continue, resulting in an image without a kernel that is likely unbootable.
By defining check-kernel-size, it is now possible to prevent release of such unbootable images through a construct similar to: IMAGE/factory.img := append-kernel | pad-to $$$$(GL_UBOOT_UBI_OFFSET) | \ append-ubi | check-kernel-size $$$$(GL_UBOOT_UBI_OFFSET) Cc: Chuanhong Guo <gch981...@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kletsky <git-comm...@allycomm.com> --- include/image-commands.mk | 7 +++++++ 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+) diff --git a/include/image-commands.mk b/include/image-commands.mk index 5dfd6a2c2f..f561ad4669 100644 --- a/include/image-commands.mk +++ b/include/image-commands.mk @@ -271,6 +271,13 @@ define Build/check-size } endef +define Build/check-kernel-size + @[ $$(($(subst k,* 1024,$(subst m, * 1024k,$(1))))) -ge "$$(stat -c%s $(IMAGE_KERNEL))" ] || { \ + echo "WARNING: Kernel for $@ is too big > $(1)" >&2; \ + rm -f $@; \ + } +endef + define Build/combined-image -sh $(TOPDIR)/scripts/combined-image.sh \ "$(IMAGE_KERNEL)" \ -- 2.20.1 _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
