From: Greg Ungerer <gerg@xxxxxxxxxxx> Checks introduced in commit 4991e7251 ("romfs: do not use mtd->get_unmapped_area directly") re-introduce problems fixed in the earlier commit 2b4b2482e ("romfs: fix romfs_get_unmapped_area() argument check"). If a flat binary app is located at the end of a romfs, its page aligned length may be outside of the romfs filesystem. The flat binary loader, via nommu do_mmap_pgoff(), page aligns the length it is mmaping. So simple offset+size checks will fail - returning EINVAL. We can truncate the length to keep it inside the romfs filesystem, and that also keeps the call to mtd_get_unmapped_area() happy. Are there any side effects to truncating the size here though?
