binman: Support compression of sections

2020-10-29T20:42:59Z

With the previous changes, it is now possible to compress entire sections. Add some tests to check that compression works correctly, including updating the metadata. Also update the documentation. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Make section padding consistent with other entries

2020-10-29T20:42:59Z

At present padding of sections is inconsistent with other entry types, in that different pad bytes are used. When a normal entry is padded by its parent, the parent's pad byte is used. But for sections, the section's pad byte is used. Adjust logic to always do this the same way. Note there is still a special case in entry_Section.GetPaddedData() where an image is padded with the pad byte of the top-level section. This is necessary since otherwise there would be no way to set the pad byte of the image, without adding a top-level section to every image. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Update testPackExtra with more checks

2020-10-29T20:42:59Z

Check the contents of each section to make sure it is actually in the right place. Also fix a whitespace error in the .dts file. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Use 'files-compress' to set compression for files

2020-10-29T20:42:59Z

At present we use 'compress' as the property to set the compression of a 'files' entry. But this conflicts with the same property for entries, of which Entry_section is a subclass. Strictly speaking, since Entry_files is in fact a subclass of Entry_section, the files can be compressed individually but also the section (that contains all the files) can itself be compressed. With this change, it is possible to express that. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Add tests for skip-at-start sections

2020-10-29T20:42:59Z

At present this feature is tested view the end-at-4gb feature. Add some tests of its own, including the operation of padding. The third test here shows binman's current, inconsistent approach to padding in the top-level section. Future patches in this series will address this. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Add support for SCP firmware

2020-10-22T06:13:43Z

binman: Support adding a U-Boot environment

2020-09-25T03:27:28Z

In some cases it is useful to include a U-Boot environment region in an image. This allows the board to start up with an environment ready to go. Add a new entry type for this. The input is a text file containing the environment entries, one per line, in the format: var=value Signed-off-by: Simon Glass Acked-by: Andy Shevchenko

binman: Show an error when a file is missing

2020-09-25T03:27:28Z

The recent support for missing external binaries does not show an error message when a file is genuinely missing (i.e. it is missing but not marked as 'external'). This means that when -m is passed to binman, it will never report a missing file. Fix this and add a test. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass Acked-by: Andy Shevchenko

binman: Support help messages for missing blobs

2020-09-22T18:54:13Z

When an external blob is missing it can be quite confusing for the user. Add a way to provide a help message that is shown. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass Signed-off-by: Alper Nebi Yasak

binman: Allow selecting default FIT configuration

2020-09-22T18:54:13Z

Add a new entry argument to the fit entry which allows selection of the default configuration to use. This is the 'default' property in the 'configurations' node. Update the Makefile to pass in the value of DEVICE_TREE or CONFIG_DEFAULT_DEVICE_TREE to provide this information. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass Suggested-by: Michal Simek
