binman: Add basic support for debugging performance

2021-07-21T16:27:35Z

One of binman's attributes is that it is extremely fast, at least for a Python program. Add some simple timing around operations that might take a while, such as reading an image and compressing it. This should help to maintain the performance as new features are added. This is for debugging purposes only. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Use bytearray instead of string

2021-07-21T16:27:35Z

This is faster if data is being concatenated. Update the section and collection etypes. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Split node-reading out from constructor in files

2021-07-21T16:27:35Z

The constructor should not read the node information. Move it to the ReadNode() method instead. This allows this etype to be subclassed. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Support multithreading for building images

2021-07-21T16:27:35Z

Some images may take a while to build, e.g. if they are large and use slow compression. Support compiling sections in parallel to speed things up. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass (fixed to use a separate test file to fix flakiness)

binman: Support packaging U-Boot for scenarios like OF_BOARD or OF_PRIOR_STAGE

2021-05-19T09:01:50Z

For scenarios like OF_BOARD or OF_PRIOR_STAGE, no device tree blob is provided in the U-Boot build phase hence the binman node information is not available. In order to support such use case, a new Kconfig option BINMAN_STANDALONE_FDT is introduced, to tell the build system that a device tree blob containing binman node is explicitly required when using binman to package U-Boot.

binman: Add support for RISC-V OpenSBI fw_dynamic blob

2021-05-19T09:01:49Z

Add an entry for RISC-V OpenSBI's 'fw_dynamic' firmware payload. Signed-off-by: Bin Meng Reviewed-by: Simon Glass Reviewed-by: Rick Chen Reviewed-by: Rick Chen

binman: test: Rename 172_fit_fdt.dts to 170_fit_fdt.dts

2021-05-19T09:01:49Z

Currently there are 2 binman test cases using the same 172 number. It seems that 172_fit_fdt.dts was originally named as 170_, but commit c0f1ebe9c1b9 ("binman: Allow selecting default FIT configuration") changed its name to 172_ for no reason. Let's change it back.

binman: Correct the comment for ATF entry type

2021-05-19T09:01:49Z

This is wrongly referring to Intel ME, which should be ATF. Signed-off-by: Bin Meng Reviewed-by: Simon Glass

binman: Correct '-a' description in the doc

2021-05-19T09:01:49Z

It needs a space around '-a'. Signed-off-by: Bin Meng Reviewed-by: Simon Glass Reviewed-by: Rick Chen

binman: Support adding sections to FMAPs

2021-04-29T10:23:39Z

When used with hierarchical images, use the Chromium OS convention of adding a section before all the subentries it contains. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass
