Add a means to include a file (e.g. u-boot.dtsi) automatically into the .dts file before it is compiled.

a minor annoyance to have to add these each time the tree is synced with
upstream.

Add a means to include a file (e.g. u-boot.dtsi) automatically into the .dts
file before it is compiled.

The file uses is the first one that exists in this list:

   arch/<arch>/dts/<board.dts>-u-boot.dtsi

binman: Add support for building x86 ROMs 2016-12-19T19:09:55+00:00 Simon Glass sjg@chromium.org 2016-11-26T03:15:53+00:00 e0ff85513858246e5378e4e3676ef6128452c4f6 The structure of x86 ROMs is pretty complex. There are various binary blobs to place in the image. Microcode requires special handling so that it is available to very early code and can be used without any memory whatsoever. Add support for the various entry types that are currently needed, along with some tests. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org> Tested-by: Bin Meng <bmeng.cn@gmail.com>

binman: Introduce binman, a tool for building binary images 2016-12-19T19:09:55+00:00 Simon Glass sjg@chromium.org 2016-11-26T03:15:51+00:00 bf7fd50b3ba56b53dc13a681d19c845be903c3e0 This adds the basic code for binman, including command parsing, processing of entries and generation of images. So far no entry types are supported. These will be added in future commits as examples of how to add new types. See the README for documentation.
