binman: rework dropping absent entries from packaged image

2025-06-26T15:54:05Z

When blobs are absent and are marked as optional, they can be safely dropped from the binman tree. Use the drop_absent function for that. Rename drop_absent to drop_absent_optional as we do not want to drop any entries that are absent; they should be reported by binman as errors when they are missing. We also reorder the processing of the image the following: - We call the CheckForProblems function before the image is built. - We drop entries after we checked for problems with the image. This is okay because CheckForProblems does not look at the file we have written but rather queries the data structure (image) built with binman. This also allows us to get all error and warning messages that we want to report while avoiding putting missing optional entries in the final image. As only the blobs are dropped, the sections still remain in the assembled image. Thus add them to the expected test case checks where necessary. In addition, a rework of testPackTeeOsOptional test case is necessary. The test did not really do what it was supposed to. The description said that optional binary is tested, but the binary is not marked as optional. Further, the tee.elf file, when included in the image properly, also shows up in the image data. This must be added as well. As there is no global variable for the elf data, set the pathname to the elf file that was created when setting up the test suite. For the test case get the filename and read the contents, comparing them to the contents of the created binman image. Signed-off-by: Yannic Moog Reviewed-by: Bryan Brattlof

binman: Support writing symbols inside a mkimage image

2023-07-20T20:10:58Z

Add support for writing symbols and determining the assumed position of binaries inside a mkimage image. This is useful as an example for other entry types which might want to do the same thing. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

patman: Move library functions into a library directory

2023-03-08T19:40:49Z

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. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Mark mkimage entry missing when its subnodes is missing

2023-02-28T10:07:26Z

Using the mkimage entry with the multiple-data-files prop and having a missing external blob result in an unexpected ValueError exception using the --allow-missing flag. ValueError: Filename 'missing.bin' not found in input path (...) Fix this by using _pathname that is resolved by ObtainContents for blob entries, ObtainContents also handles allow missing for external blobs. Mark mkimage entry as missing and return without running mkimage when missing entries is reported by CheckMissing. Signed-off-by: Jonas Karlman Reviewed-by: Simon Glass Reviewed-by: Kever Yang

binman: allow user-defined filenames for mkimage entry

2022-09-04T12:00:39Z

mkimage entry currently creates a file whose name is derived from the section name containing said entry. Let's allow the user to define a filename for the mkimage-generated binary by using the 'filename' DT property. Cc: Quentin Schulz Signed-off-by: Quentin Schulz Reviewed-by: Simon Glass
