You need to handle the case in which grub_multiboot_payload_entry_offset is left
uninitialized (it needs to be initialized each time the multiboot command is
run, not just when the module is loaded).
module? actually it's when loading image. Perhaps you mean that
additional error check is necessary
I meant GRUB's multiboot.mod, not the payload's module. Sorry I wasn't clear.
With this error check if grub_multiboot_payload_entry_offset it can
happen only if no image is loaded. And actually
grub_multiboot_payload_entry_offset is set to 0 at multiboot.mod load
So I don't really understand the problem
You can't rely on grub_multiboot_payload_entry_offset being set to 0, because
any subsequent call of "multiboot /something" has the potential to override
this. You must not assume the multiboot command is only going to be run once.
No but it always corresponds to the current image. It's set either in
multiboot.c or in grub_multiboot_load_elf
