Subject: [PATCH v3 16/17] arm64: kexec_file: Simplify load_other_segments()
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 17:25:40 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260826092541.3905933-17-ruanjinjie@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260826092541.3905933-1-ruanjinjie@huawei.com>
Use `kbuf` fields directly in crash_prepare_headers() to eliminate
the local variables "headers" and "headers_sz"..
Advance the assignment to image->elf_headers before
calling kexec_add_buffer(). If kexec_add_buffer() fails, the explicit
vfree() in the error path can be removed, as the global infrastructure
in arch_kimage_file_post_load_cleanup() will handle the cleanup.
