There's a config option SQUASHFS_4K_DEVBLK_SIZE. The documentation says that it uses by default 1K block size and if you enable this option, it uses 4K block size. So, try to set it. Or try to reduce dm-verity block size down to 1K. > ==> mksquashfs [...] - comp xz -Xdict-size 32K -noI -Xbcj arm -b 65536 > -processors 1 > > But for dm-verity we are giving block size of 4096 > ==> [ 0.000000] Kernel command line:[..] verity="96160 12020 > d7b8a7d0c01b9aec888930841313a81603a50a2a7be44631c4c813197a50d681 0 " > rootfstype=squashfs root=/dev/mtdblock34 ubi.mtd=30,0,30 [...] > root=/dev/dm-0 dm="system none ro,0 96160 verity 1 /dev/mtdblock34 > /dev/mtdblock39 4096 4096 12020 8 sha256 > d7b8a7d0c01b9aec888930841313a81603a50a2a7be44631c4c813197a50d681 > aee087a5be3b982978c923f566a94613496b417f2af592639bc80d141e34dfe7" > > Now, we are checking by giving squashfs block size also as 4096 > > In case, if this does not work, what else could be the other option ? > Can we try with initramfs approach ? Yes - you can try initramfs. Mikulas > Thanks, > Pintu > -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
