(Also sidenote: asserts usually shouldn't be used for error checking.) In roms/skiboot/libstb/print-container.c there's a similar issue: payload = mmap(NULL, payload_st.st_size - SECURE_BOOT_HEADERS_SIZE, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, fdin, SECURE_BOOT_HEADERS_SIZE); if (!payload) This if should be (payload == MAP_FAILED). Another one is in ./roms/skiboot/libstb/create-container.c And in ./roms/u-boot/tools/aisimage.c there's an mmap call that does not check the return value at all.
