From: Benjamin Gray Date: Mon, 20 Mar 2023 04:08:38 +0000 (+1100) Subject: initramfs: Check negative timestamp to prevent broken cpio archive X-Git-Tag: v6.6.7~3116^2~4 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5efb685bb3af112038af78a2cdf28f0ffdad45f5;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-starfive.git initramfs: Check negative timestamp to prevent broken cpio archive Similar to commit 4c9d410f32b3 ("initramfs: Check timestamp to prevent broken cpio archive"), except asserts that the timestamp is non-negative. This can happen when the KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP is a value before UNIX epoch, which may be set when making reproducible builds that don't want to look like they use a valid date. While support for dates before 1970 might not be supported, this is more about preventing undetected CPIO corruption. The printf's use a minimum length format specifier, and will happily make the field longer than 8 characters if they need to.
