time. Use dump.erofs to get the filesystem creation time from the

Compact EROFS inodes do not allow for modification times that are
different from FS creation times. The file modification time check is
done between the EROFS image and the file system where test temporary
files are written to, not the files as seen from the mounted EROFS image.
So its likely that the file modification time will be different, more
so when run on slower systems.

On network boots grub_ieee1275_net_config() is used to determine the
boot device but the path continues to be taken from the Open Firmware
/chosen/bootpath property. This assumes the device node follows the
generic IEEE 1275 syntax which is not always the case. Different drivers
may extend or redefine the format and GRUB may then misinterpret the
argument as a filename and set $prefix incorrectly.
The generic Open Firmware device path format is:
device-name[:device-argument]
device-argument := [partition][,[filename]]
For example, a bootpath such as:
/vdevice/l-lan@30000002:speed=auto,duplex=auto,1.2.243.345,,9.8.76.543,1.2.34.5,5,5,255.255.255.0,512
does not follow this form. The section after the colon (the device-argument)
contains driver-specific options and network parameters, not a valid filename.
The GRUB interprets this string as a filename which results in $prefix being
set to "/", effectively losing the intended boot directory.
The firmware is not at fault here since interpretation of device nodes
is driver-specific. Instead, GRUB should use the filename provided in
the cached DHCP packet which is consistent and reliable. This is also
the same mechanism already used on UEFI and legacy BIOS platforms.
This patch updates grub_machine_get_bootlocation() to prefer the result
from grub_ieee1275_net_config() when complete and only fall back to the
firmware bootpath otherwise.

This issue was discovered via fuzzing. When a malformed OACK packet
contains an invalid file size, "tsize", value tftp_receive() detects
the error and saves it via grub_error_save(&data->save_err). Later,
tftp_open() restores this error and calls grub_net_udp_close(data->sock)
assuming the socket is still valid.
However, the socket may have already been closed and set to NULL after
processing the final data block in tftp_receive() leading to a NULL
pointer dereference when attempting to close it again.

This patch extends the generated grub.cfg so that it can use the
external environment block when the variable env_block is defined.
During boot, if env_block is set, grub.cfg builds a device path for it,
exports the variable, and then loads its contents in addition to the
normal grubenv file.
When GRUB writes variables such as next_entry or saved_entry, the save
commands are changed to write into env_block if it is set, and to fall
back to the grubenv file otherwise. In this way the external environment
block is used automatically, and existing commands like savedefault or
save_env do not need to change.

The Btrfs header already defines regions for bootloader use. By adding
