[PATCH v2 0/5] u-boot chain-loading LineageOS bootimg

[George Chan via B4 Relay]

This is a series of patches to enable chainloading LineageOS on qcom SOC.

Patch #1 introduce kconfig to ignore those default value and use loadaddr
instead. That workaround some androidboot image have invalid kernel/ramdisk
loadaddr.

Patch #2 override qcom soc loadaddr with fastboot_addr_r as a band-aid.
Casey confirmed loadaddr and kernel_addr_r are purposely set to same
address for memory-constrain case. A proper fix is far from get ready so
this patch can work as a band-aid for maintainer atm.

Patch #3 optionally introduce new kconfig and env_var to get hold of legacy
OS boot param for boot compatibility. It is designed initially for
booting legacy Android, but newer AOSP greatly dependent on kernel
bootconfig feature with vendor_boot partition so not very useful for new
AOSP based OS.

Patch #4 is an example for #3 with snapdragon soc env file

Patch #5 is oprtional to default enable #1 for snapdragon machine.

Worth mentioning a patch[1] to enable EL1 chainloading kernel is needed.

Changes in v2:

- Split old #1 into new #1 and #5 for maintainer to choose.
- Revised Casey's approach for #2 and make it as band-aid atm.
- Revised Casey's approach for #3 and leave user to bake their own param set.
- Introduce example for #1

I like this and should be the default except rare cases, exposing the whole memory
to image loading sound really dangerous..

@Mattijs would this still work on Amlogic board if we set loadaddr to the address
curently used in the boot images ?

TLDR, yes, it would still work on Amlogic if we:
- Set CONFIG_ANDROID_BOOT_IMAGE_IGNORE_BLOB_ADDR=y
- setenv kernel_addr_r  0x11080000
- setenv ramdisk_addr_r 0x11000000

I've experimented a bit with an old boot.img.
Some details below

NOTE: newer boot.img have different addresses, see:
https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/device/amlogic/yukawa/+/3290364
Before sending a patch for this, make sure to use the latest
ramdisk_addr_r variable

This is the original boot.img I have:

$ unpack_bootimg --format info --boot_img boot.img
boot magic: ANDROID!
kernel_size: 19022293

boot header size: 1660
dtb size: 295778
dtb address: 0x0000000011f00000

I can unpack/repack it to change "kernel load address" and "ramdisk load
address" with:

$ unpack_bootimg --boot_img boot.img --out out --format=mkbootimg | tee mkbootimg_args
# edit mkbootimg_args to change both --kernel_offset and
--ramdisk_offset to 0x0
$ sh -c "mkbootimg $(cat mkbootimg_args) --output boot_repacked.img"

$ unpack_bootimg --format info --boot_img boot_repacked.img | grep 'load address'
kernel load address: 0x00000000
ramdisk load address: 0x00000000

Reflashing the boot partition with:
$ fastboot flash boot boot_repacked.img

Without modification, this does not boot, as expected:

Re: [PATCH v2 1/5] boot/image-android: Workaround kernel/ramdisk invalid addr

[Mattijs Korpershoek]

Hi George,

Thank you for the patch.
I really prefer this solution to the one proposed in v1.

I have tested this on Khadas VIM3 board (using khadas-vim3_android_defconfig)

I have a couple of small remarks below.

On lun., mai 05, 2025 at 17:17, George Chan via B4 Relay <devnull+gchan9527.gmail.com@kernel.org> wrote:

Can we please elaborate a bit more in the commit message?
We have not explained/justified why repacking a boot image with proper
kernel ramdisk/load addr is not possible.

Is the following an acceptable justification for you?
"""
Since it's not always possible to change the load addr by repacking
the boot.img (due to AVB signature mismatch/<or_another_justification>),
we need a way to use kernel_addr_r and ramdisk_addr_r.
"""

Feel free to reformulate the above.

Thx. let me sum up as below 2 reasons.

1. there is a concern on exposing the whole memory to image loading is
dangerous

2. Since it's not always possible to change the load addr by repacking
the boot.img (mainly due to AVB signature mismatch),
we need a way to use kernel_addr_r and ramdisk_addr_r.

[PATCH v2 2/5] mach-snapdragon: Enhance android image handling memory footprint

[George Chan via B4 Relay]

From: George Chan <gchan9527@gmail.com>

In order to unzipped kernel from androidboot img, extra memory for
loadaddr is needed. So once fastboot is enabled fastboot memory also
share with loadaddr.

That can balance with memory constrain soc and android usecase.
