Subject: firmware-utils/tplink-safeloader: soft-version magic is data length
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6985a26e5999c2d090d0ab57e19fba490b888ced;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblocktrron.git

firmware-utils/tplink-safeloader: soft-version magic is data length

The soft-version partition actually contains a header and trailing data:
* header: {data length, [zero]}
* data: {version, bcd encoded date, revision}

The data length is currently treated as a magic number, but should
contain the length of the partition data.

This header is also present the following partitions (non-exhaustive):
* string-based soft-version
* support-list
