Can't we just use efi_dp_concat()?

efi_dp_concat cannot be used to put a device-path end-node in between
two device-paths that are concatenated. We need that separator in the
load options.

I am not sure I am following you. It's been a few years so please bear
with me until I manage to re-read that code and page it back to
memory.

What I remember though is that the format of the DP looks like this:

Loaded image DP - end node - initrd GUID DP (without and end node) -
initrd - end of device path.
So to jump from the special initrd GUID to the actual DP that contains
the initrd you need to do an efi_dp_next(). Also, efi_dp_concat() will
inject an end node with a DEVICE_PATH_SUB_TYPE_END type if the third
argument is 'true'.

What am I missing?

Let us assume

dp1 = /vmlinux/endnode/initrd/endnode
dp2 = /dtb/endnode

and we invoke dp_concat(dp1, dp2, true):

sz1 is calculated via the efi_dp_size() function which looks for the *first* device-path end node.

sz1 = efi_dp_size(dp1) = sizeof(/vmlinux)

sz1 will not include initrd and its endnode.

So dp_concat(/vmlinux/endnode/initrd/endnode, /dtb/endnode, true)
will return:

/vmlinux/endnode/dtb/endnode

but in our boot option we want

/vmlinux/endnode/initrd/endnode/dtb/endnode

I introduced an new function efi_dp_merge().
Instead we could change the arguments to:


* @sz1:
* * 0 to concatenate
* * 1 to concatenate with end node added as separator
* * size of dp1 excluding last end node to concatenate with end node as
*   separator in case dp1 contains an end node
struct
efi_device_path *efi_dp_concat(const struct efi_device_path *dp1,
                               const struct efi_device_path *dp2,
                               size_t sz1)

and replace

sz1 = efi_dp_size(dp1);

by

if (sz1 < sizeof(struct efi_device_path)
        sz1 = efi_dp_size(dp1);
