The quilt patch titled Subject: kexec_file: fix elfcorehdr digest exclusion when CONFIG_CRASH_HOTPLUG=y has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kexec_file-fix-elfcorehdr-digest-exclusion-when-config_crash_hotplug=y.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
------------------------------------------------------ From: Petr Tesarik ptesarik@suse.com Subject: kexec_file: fix elfcorehdr digest exclusion when CONFIG_CRASH_HOTPLUG=y Date: Mon, 5 Aug 2024 17:07:50 +0200
Fix the condition to exclude the elfcorehdr segment from the SHA digest calculation.
The j iterator is an index into the output sha_regions[] array, not into the input image->segment[] array. Once it reaches image->elfcorehdr_index, all subsequent segments are excluded. Besides, if the purgatory segment precedes the elfcorehdr segment, the elfcorehdr may be wrongly included in the calculation.
