From ef7d89cabe658e7f2951112c50853328988cea98 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julius Werner Date: Thu, 9 May 2019 13:40:23 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] vboot: Make vboot_logic_executed() a bit more precise This patch adds another check to vboot_logic_executed() to make sure we only do a runtime check for verstage_should_load() if CONFIG_VBOOT_RETURN_FROM_VERSTAGE is enabled. That's the only case where the stage that's loading the verstage can execute after verification has run (because the verstage will return to it when it's done). In the other case, the stage that loads verstage really just loads it and will never do anything again after hand-off, so it's guaranteed to always execute before verification. This change may allow extra dead-code elimination in some cases.
