[PATCH V2 0/2] fw_env: two minor code cleanups
From: Rafał Miłecki rafal@milecki.pl
Hi,
I'm a long time OpenWrt developer and just recently I started working with some devices using U-Boot.
I was trying to understand how environment variables are read in user space and I had some problems understanding fw_env_open() logic. I eventually got it but I thought I may help further developers by simpliifying its code a bit.
I hope you may find those patches useful and review / apply them.
Rafał Miłecki (2): fw_env: make flash_io() take buffer as an argument fw_env: simplify logic & code paths in the fw_env_open()

It's usually easier to understand code & follow it if all arguments are passed explicitly. Many coding styles also discourage using global variables.
Behaviour of flash_io() was a bit unintuitive as it was writing to a buffer referenced in a global struct. That required developers to remember how it works and sometimes required hacking "environment" global struct variable to read data into a proper buffer.

From: Rafał Miłecki rafal@milecki.pl
Environment variables can be stored in two formats: 1. Single entry with header containing CRC32 2. Two entries with extra flags field in each entry header
For that reason fw_env_open() has two main code paths and there are pointers for CRC32/flags/data.
Previous implementation was a bit hard to follow: 1. It was checking for used format twice (in reversed order each time) 2. It was setting "environment" global struct fields to some temporary values that required extra comments explaining it
This change simplifies that code: 1. It introduces two clear code paths 2. It sets "environment" global struct fields values only once it really knows them
To be fair there are *two* crc32() calls now and an extra pointer variable but that should be cheap enough and worth it.
