patman: Move capture_sys_output() into terminal and rename

2025-05-27T09:07:41+00:00

This function is sometimes useful outside tests. Also it can affect how
terminal output is done, e.g. whether ANSI characters should be emitted
or not.

Move it out of the test_util package and into terminal.

binman: Adjust naming for reading symbols

2024-09-26T10:40:30+00:00

These functions get the value of a symbol. The reference to ELF files
is confusing since they are reading the position/size of entries, not
ELF symbols. Rename the functions and adjust the comments also.

2023-12-13T23:39:06+00:00

old_val can only be assumed initialized in the finally block
if it is assigned a value before the try statement.

binman: Correct handling of zero bss size

Fix the check for the __bss_size symbol, since it may be 0. Unfortunately
there was no test coverage for this.

binman: Update elf to return number of written symbols

2023-07-20T20:10:58+00:00

Update the LookupAndWriteSymbols() function to return the number of
symbols written. Also add some logging for when debugging is not
enabled.

patman: Move library functions into a library directory

2023-03-08T19:40:49+00:00

The patman directory has a number of modules which are used by other tools
in U-Boot. This makes it hard to package the tools using pypi since the
common files must be copied along with the tool that uses them.

To address this, move these files into a new u_boot_pylib library. This
can be packaged separately and listed as a dependency of each tool.

Unfortunately a recent patch snuck through without the require test
coverage. Fix it.

binman: Add a way to check for a valid ELF file

2023-01-18T18:50:01+00:00

Add a function which checks whether data is in ELF format or not. This
will be used by binman to check this for entries.
