Null pointer when flashing a sdimg.bz2 image

[jakakordez]

When I try to flash my board using a .sdimg.bz2 image, the flashing almost every time halts. I cloned the project and ran it with Visual Studio and I found out that there is a null pointer in the g_filebuffer_map of libuuu/buffer.cpp which causes a read access violation. I verified that null is never stored into the map explicitly in buffer.cpp:1211.

My system is Windows 11 and I am flashing an i.MX8M Plus board. The problem is also that when uuu.exe is ran directly, without a debugger attached and that happens, the flashing procedure just freezes without any error message to the user.

What's size of your bz2? And how do you create bz2, by pbzip2 or bzip2? Suggest switch to use zstd.

The original sdimg is 7GB, compressed to bz2 is 137 MB. Image is produced using the Yocto build so I am not sure which compression tool is used internally.
