Subject: [PATCH v2 01/10] pylibfdt: Fix FdtSw.as_fdt() when buffer is nearly full
Date: Wed, 28 Oct 2026 14:46:50 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261028215600.1713475-2-dianders@chromium.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261028215600.1713475-1-dianders@chromium.org>

`FdtSw.as_fdt()` calls `fdt_finish()` on a copy of `self._fdt` without
using `self.check_space()`. Because `fdt_finish()` appends the 4-byte
`FDT_END` token, `as_fdt()` raises `FdtException(FDT_ERR_NOSPACE)` if
fewer than 4 bytes of free space remain in `self._fdt` after the final
`end_node()`.

Wrap `fdt_finish()` in a `while self.check_space(fdt_finish(fdtsw)):`
loop so `FdtSw.as_fdt()` automatically resizes the buffer when needed,
matching the rest of `FdtSw`'s methods.

Assisted-by: Gemini:gemini-pro-prerelease

Changes in v2:
- New patch fixing FdtSw.as_fdt() buffer resize when < 4 bytes remain
