[PATCH v7 2/4] bootconfig: Check the checksum before removing the bootconfig from initrd

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Check the bootconfig's checksum before removing the bootcinfig data
from initrd to avoid modifying initrd by mistake.
This will also simplifies the get_boot_config_from_initrd() interface.
