Hi everyone, I have an unexpected behaviour with my bootchooser framework since barebox version 2017.05. After reflashing barebox, and cleaning the environment and the state partition, the boot message shows: stMyBoot: New state registered 'stMyBoot' stMyBoot: Failed to find any valid state copy in any bucket stMyBoot: Failed to read state with format dtb, -2 state stMyBoot.14: Failed to load persistent state, continuing with defaults,-2 Barebox continues with defaults, this seems OK. I double checked this by printing the variables (default is 0xffffffff) printenv stMyBoot.bootchooser.factory.remaining_attempts stMyBoot.bootchooser.factory.remaining_attempts=4294967295 printenv stMyBoot.bootchooser.system1.remaining_attempts stMyBoot.bootchooser.system1.remaining_attempts=4294967295 printenv stMyBoot.bootchooser.system2.remaining_attempts stMyBoot.bootchooser.system2.remaining_attempts=4294967295 Next, I call boot, and everything works fine, the target with the highest priority, which is 'system1', boots. booting 'bootchooser' booting 'system1' The system boots as expected. I have no modification within my linux. The problem starts with the second boot, which fails: barebox outputs: stMyBoot: New state registered 'stMyBoot' stMyBoot: Using bucket 0@0x00000000 This is OK, the bucket was written during the first boot, because the remaining_attempts should be decreased. But, unexpectly, the bootchooser is completly deactivated, all three boot targets have remaining_attempts=0 booting 'bootchooser' bootchooser: No valid targets found: system1 id: 1 priority: 22 default_priority: 1 remaining attempts: 0 default attempts: 3 boot: 'system1' disabled due to remaining attempts = 0 system2 id: 2 priority: 21 default_priority: 1 remaining attempts: 0 default attempts: 3 boot: 'system2' disabled due to remaining attempts = 0 factory id: 3 priority: 10 default_priority: 1 remaining attempts: 0 default attempts: 3 boot: 'factory' disabled due to remaining attempts = 0 booting 'bootchooser' failed: No such file or directory I placed a printenv in my boot entry file and, when booting the first time after a new reflashing, the output is stMyBoot.bootchooser.system1.remaining_attempts=0 I looks like the bootchooser doesn't use the default/actual value for 'remaining_attempts' when saving the variables after he has decided which boot target he will use. Everything worked fine up to 2017.04 Behaviour as descriped tested with 2017.05, 2017.07.1 What is going wrong? Thanks for your consideration in this matter.
