[PATCH master 3/3] sandbox: store stickypage in runtime dir

Ahmad Fatoum a.fatoum at pengutronix.de
Thu Aug 17 00:39:41 PDT 2023


The stickypage is a hack to have a 4K hostfile persist over reboot. This
was so far done by compiling the stickypage separately and referencing
it from the device tree via the magic $build variable that expands to
the working directory.

This breaks a number of assumptions:
  - KBUILD_IMAGE: should only have a single entry, e.g.
    barebox-flash-images ends up with two files per one line

  - stickypage must be writable, which may fail if barebox is installed,
    e.g. in r/o Nix Store
