image: fit: Apply overlays using aligned writable FDT copies
libfdt expects FDT/DTO blobs to be 8-byte aligned. When loading the base FDT or overlays from a FIT, the mapped buffer may be unaligned, which can break fdt_open_into() on strict-alignment architectures. boot_get_fdt_fit() relocates the base FDT with boot_relocate_fdt() before applying overlays. That uses the bootm memory map and can overlap with the FIT buffer when the FIT is loaded into RAM, corrupting data needed to load the kernel and ramdisk. Allocate writable, 8-byte aligned copies of the base FDT and overlays with memalign() and fdt_open_into(). Grow the base buffer as needed, apply overlays to it and pack the final tree. Free each temporary overlay copy after application and check fdt_pack() errors. Fixes: 8fbcc0e0e839 ("boot: Assure FDT is always 8-byte aligned") Fixes: 881f0b77dc8c ("image: apply FDTOs on FDT image node") Signed-off-by: James Hilliard <[email protected]> Cc: Jamie Gibbons <[email protected]> Reviewed-by: Marek Vasut <[email protected]>
