Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/4] kho: Add support for multiple versions in subtrees
Date: Fri, 31 Jul 2026 14:52:22 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260731215224.831696-3-loganodell@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260731215224.831696-1-loganodell@google.com>
Add explicit version support to KHO by creating subnodes with
the version number. The first caller to kho_add_subtree_version will
create the parent node and versioned subnode. Subsequent calls with a
different version will add more subnodes with the version as the name.
Remove is updated to handle cleanup when the final version is removed.
Example Tree:
/ (Root Node)
├── compatible = "kho-v1"
├── preserved-memory-map = <0xphys_map>
├── some_legacy_node (Legacy Node)
│ ├── preserved-data = <0xphys_legacy>
│ └── blob-size = <0xsize_legacy>
└── LUO (Versioned Parent Node)
├── 1 (Version 1 Node)
│ ├── preserved-data = <0xphys_luo_v1>
│ └── blob-size = <0xsize_luo_v1>
└── 2 (Version 2 Node)
├── preserved-data = <0xphys_luo_v2>
└── blob-size = <0xsize_luo_v2>
