David Zeuthen 7fe7b0acdf ANDROID: AVB error handler to invalidate vbmeta partition.
If androidboot.vbmeta.invalidate_on_error is 'yes' and
androidboot.vbmeta.device is set and points to a device with vbmeta
magic, this header will be overwritten upon an irrecoverable dm-verity
error. The side-effect of this is that the slot will fail to verify on
next reboot, effectively triggering the boot loader to fallback to
another slot. This work both if the vbmeta struct is at the start of a
partition or if there's an AVB footer at the end.

This code is based on drivers/md/dm-verity-chromeos.c from ChromiumOS.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
