bootstd: Add command to enable setting of bootmeth specific properties

2024-10-15T16:24:27+00:00

We have previously added logic to allow a "fallback" option to be
specified in the extlinux configuration. Provide a command that allows
us to set this as the preferred default option when booting.

Combined with the bootcount functionality, this allows the "altbootcmd"
to provide a means of falling back to a previously known good state
after a failed update. For example, if "bootcmd" is set to:

    bootflow scan -lb

We would set "altbootcmd" to:

    bootmeth set extlinux fallback 1; bootflow scan -lb

Causing the boot process to boot from the fallback option.

Revert "Merge patch series "arm: dts: am62-beagleplay: Fix Beagleplay Ethernet""

2024-05-19T14:16:36+00:00

When bringing in the series 'arm: dts: am62-beagleplay: Fix Beagleplay
Ethernet"' I failed to notice that b4 noticed it was based on next and
so took that as the base commit and merged that part of next to master.

This reverts commit c8ffd1356d42223cbb8c86280a083cc3c93e6426, reversing
changes made to 2ee6f3a5f7550de3599faef9704e166e5dcace35.

bootstd: Support bootmeths which can scan any partition

2023-08-25T21:55:19+00:00

Some bootmeths support scanning a partition without a filesystem on it.
Add a flag to support this.

This will allow the ChromiumOS bootmeth to find kernel partition, which
are stored in a special format, without a filesystem.

bootstd: Add a command to read all files for a bootflow

2023-08-11T13:33:38+00:00

Some bootflows (such as EFI and ChromiumOS) delay reading the kernel until
it is needed to boot. This saves time when scanning and avoids needing to
allocate memory for something that may never be used.

To permit reading of these files, add a new 'bootflow read' command.

bootstd: Rename distro and syslinux to extlinux

2023-05-13T13:52:32+00:00

We use the terms 'distro' to mean extlinux but they are not really the
same. 'Distro' could refer to any method of booting a distribution,
whereas extlinux is a particular method.

Also we sometimes use syslinux, but it is better to use the same term in
all cases.

Rename distro to syslinux and also update bootstd uses of syslinux to use
extlinux instead.
