Subject: [PATCH] fixup! scripts: Add common library functions
Date: Wed, 27 Oct 2021 08:01:50 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211027060150.28184-1-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de> (raw)

scripts: common: mmap mutable memory in read_file_2

imx-usb-loader expects the file buffer contents to be mutable as it
will patch out references to plugin and DCD segments.

With the consolidation of the different file read helpers, the
buffer is no longer always malloc'd, but a read-only shared
mapping is attempted first and if it succeeds, imx-usb-loader
will seg fault during fixups.

As we don't want to modify the underlying file, switch to a writable
private mapping to remedy this.
