binman: Honour the skip-at-start property more faithfully

2025-03-04T14:22:11Z

A discussion on the mailing list about dealing with block offsets and binman symbols made me think that something is wrong with how Binman deals with the skip-at-start property. The feature was originally designed to handle x86 ROMs, which are mapped at the top of the address space. That seemed too specific, whereas skipping some space at the start seemed more generally useful. It has proved useful. For example, rockchip images start at block 64, so a skip-at-start of 0x8000 deals with this. But it doesn't actually work correctly, since the image_pos value does not give the actual position on the media. Fix this and update the documentation, moving it into the 'section' section.

tools: binman: etype: fit: Append DTB directory to the list of input directories

2024-12-19T15:10:34Z

When specifying a directory containing DTBs with 'fit,fdt-list-dir', it can be handy not to have to also specify this directory to the input directories of binman with '-I' option and use the method tools.append_input_dirs() append it. This avoids to have to specify the DTB directory in both the device tree provided to binman and through '-I' option to binman. Signed-off-by: Paul HENRYS Reviewed-by: Simon Glass

tools: binman: etype: Allow to replace 'NAME' in node names

2024-12-19T15:10:34Z

This change allows to replace both 'SEQ' and 'NAME' keywords by respectively a sequence number and the name of the FDT to provide more flexibility in the node name for the device trees included in the FIT. Signed-off-by: Paul HENRYS Reviewed-by: Simon Glass

binman: implement signing FIT images during image build

2024-10-18T20:10:22Z

The patch implement new property 'fit,sign' that can be declared at the top-level 'fit' node. If that option is declared, fit tryies to detect private keys directory among binman include directories. That directory than passed to mkimage using '-k' flag and that enable signing of FIT.

binman: Make a start on an iMX8 test

This patch is for Marek, to provide a starting point. To try it, use 'binman test -T' and see the missing coverage. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Allow image_pos to be None when writing symbols

2024-09-26T10:40:30Z

Some images do not have an image_pos value, for example an image which is part of a compressed section and therefore cannot be accessed directly. Handle this case, returning None as the value. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Provide a way to set the symbol base address

2024-09-26T10:40:30Z

The base address of the ELF containing symbols is normally added to any symbols written, so that the value points to the correct address in memory when everything is loaded. When the binary resides on disk, a different offset may be needed, typically 0. Provide a way to specify this. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Add minor improvements to symbol-writing

2024-09-26T10:40:30Z

Add a clarification to the documentation and add a missing comment. Also update the test so that when it fails it is easier to see what is going on, rather than having to decode hex strings. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: fit: Refine handling of devicetrees for OF_UPSTREAM

2024-09-26T10:40:30Z

With OF_UPSTREAM the dts files are in an SoC-specific subdirectory, meaning that the resulting dtb files all end up in a similar subdirectory. We don't want the subdirectory name to appear as a node name in the FIT, so handle this as a special case. Also the default devicetree may have a directory-name prefix, so handle that when searching through the available devicetree files. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass
