binman: Move to use Python 3

2019-11-05T01:15:32Z

Update this tool to use Python 3 to meet the 2020 deadline. Unfortunately this introduces a test failure due to a problem in pylibfdt on Python 3. I will investigate. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Convert to use ArgumentParser

2019-07-24T19:54:07Z

This class is the new way to handle arguments in Python. Convert binman over to use it. At the same time, introduce commands so that we can separate out the different parts of binman functionality. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Add a utility library for coreboot CBFS

2019-07-24T19:53:46Z

Coreboot uses a simple flash-based filesystem called Coreboot Filesystem (CBFS) to organise files used during boot. This allows files to be named and their position in the flash to be set. It has special features for dealing with x86 devices which typically memory-map their SPI flash to the top of 32-bit address space and need a 'boot block' ending there. Create a library to help create and read CBFS files. This includes a writer class, a reader class and associated other helpers. Only a subset of features are currently supported.

binman: Pass the toolpath to tests

2019-07-24T19:53:44Z

Tools like ifwitool may not be available in the PATH, but are available in the build. These tools may be needed by tests, so allow tests to use the --toolpath flag. Also use this flag with travis. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Allow preserving test directories

2019-07-24T03:27:58Z

Sometimes when debugging tests it is useful to keep the input and output directories so they can be examined later. Add an option for this and update the binman tests to support it. This affects both the test class and the tearDown() function called after each test. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Allow verbosity control when running tests

2019-07-24T03:27:58Z

At present the -v flag is ignored with tests, so that (for example) -v2 does not have any effect. Update binman to pass this flag through to tests so that they work just like running binman normally, except in a few special cases where we are actually testing behaviour with different levels of verbosity.

binman: Drop unnecessary debug handling

2019-07-24T03:27:58Z

The -D option enables debug mode, but we only need to add -D to the command line once. Drop the duplicate code. Also drop the comment about enabling debugging since this can be done with -D. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Ensure that coverage has access to site packages

2019-07-24T03:27:57Z

Code coverage tests fail on binman due to dist-packages being dropped from the python path on Ubuntu 16.04. Add them in so that we can find the elffile module, which is required by binman. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Detect skipped tests

2019-07-24T03:27:57Z

If tests are skipped we should ideally exit with an error, since there may be a missing dependency. However at present this is not desirable since it breaks travis tests. For now, just report the skips. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Don't show errors for failed tests

2019-07-10T22:52:45Z

An unfortunate new feature in Python 3.5 causes binman to print errors for non-existent tests, when the test filter is used. Work around this by detecting the unwanted tests and removing them from the result. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass
