  • In the "Getting Started with Coccinelle - KVM edition" presentation that
    has been held by Julia Lawall at the KVM forum 2015 (see the slides at
    http://events.linuxfoundation.org/sites/events/files/slides/tutorial_kvm_0.pdf),
    she pointed out some bad return value checks in U-Boot that can be
    detected with Coccinelle by using the following config file:

    @@
    identifier x,y;
    identifier f;
    statement S;
    @@
    x = f(...);
    (
    if (x < 0) S
    |
    if (
    - y
    + x
    < 0) S
    )

    This patch now fixes these issues.

  • When variable size SPL is used, the BL1 expects the SPL to be
    encapsulated differently: instead of putting the checksum at a fixed
    offset in the SPL blob, prepend the blob with a header including the
    size and the checksum.

    The enhancements include
    - adding a command line option, '--vs' to indicate the need for the
    variable size encapsulation
    - padding the fixed size encapsulated blob with 0xff instead of random
    memory contents
    - do not silently truncate the input file, report error instead
    - no need to explicitly closing files/freeing memory, this all happens
    on exit; removing cleanups it makes code clearer
    - profuse commenting
    - modify Makefile to allow enabling the new feature per board
