Subject: [PATCH 12/15] bootconfig: constify xbc_calc_checksum() data parameter
Date: Sat, 14 Mar 2026 21:45:52 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260314214555.96217-13-objecting@objecting.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260314214555.96217-1-objecting@objecting.org>
xbc_calc_checksum() only reads the data buffer, so mark the parameter
as const void * and the internal pointer as const unsigned char *.
