Hi,

I observed a Nullpointer Exception in barebox barebox 2023.05.0 on a Rock3a when calling

of_diff . .

This should be already fixed in next. You can ask Sascha to pick
"commands: of_diff: simplify error handling" to master if that
fixes your issue.

thanks for your reply, it is fixed in next indeed. I just gave it a quick test run.

@Sascha: as this fixes a Nullpointer dereference, maybe Ahmad's patch is a candidate to pick into master?


[snip]

You can pipe barebox crash logs into Linux scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh
to get line numbers (don't forget to set ARCH/CROSS_COMPILE).
Enabling CONFIG_KASAN=y can also be very useful to pinpoint the origin
of memory corruptions.


That's good to know, thank you. This will definitely help me the next time.

Johannes

Cheers,
Ahmad


Best regards
Johannes
