Previously grub-install copied modules to grubdir before doing any validation on the install_device.
When grub-install was called with an invalid install_device, modules were already copied to /boot before it found out and was forced to rely on atexit rollback. This patch delays copying the modules after at least some install_device validation was done, and thus reduces reliance on successful rollback. --- util/grub-install.c | 14 +++++++------- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/util/grub-install.c b/util/grub-install.c index 1ad04db36..fd799a75f 100644 --- a/util/grub-install.c +++ b/util/grub-install.c @@ -1291,13 +1291,6 @@ main (int argc, char *argv[]) } } - grub_install_copy_files (grub_install_source_directory, - grubdir, platform); - - char *envfile = grub_util_path_concat (2, grubdir, "grubenv"); - if (!grub_util_is_regular (envfile)) - grub_util_create_envblk_file (envfile); - size_t ndev = 0; /* Write device to a variable so we don't have to traverse /dev every time. */ @@ -1419,6 +1412,13 @@ main (int argc, char *argv[]) } } + grub_install_copy_files (grub_install_source_directory, + grubdir, platform); + + char *envfile = grub_util_path_concat (2, grubdir, "grubenv"); + if (!grub_util_is_regular (envfile)) + grub_util_create_envblk_file (envfile); + if (!have_abstractions) { if ((disk_module && grub_strcmp (disk_module, "biosdisk") != 0) -- 2.39.2 _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
