binman: Keep the efi_capsule input file

2024-08-05T18:15:29Z

There is no need to remove input files. It makes it harder to diagnose failures. Keep the payload file. There is no test for this condition, but one could be added. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass Acked-by: Sughosh Ganu

binman: Deal with mkeficapsule being missing

2024-08-05T18:15:29Z

Tools cannot be assumed to be present. Add a check for this with the mkeficpasule tool. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass Fixes: b617611b27a ("binman: capsule: Add support for generating...")

binman: Collect the version number for mkeficapsule

2024-08-05T18:15:29Z

Now that this tool has a version number, collect it. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

Makefile: Pass OF_SPL_REMOVE_PROPS to binman

2024-07-29T14:42:18Z

Pass CONFIG_OF_SPL_REMOVE_PROPS to binman so that it can remove properties correctly when producing FITs for SPL phases. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: fit: Allow running fdtgrep on devicetree blobs

2024-07-29T14:42:18Z

When using FIT to load firmware builds for multiple models, the FIT must include a common binary along with a number of devicetree blobs, one for each model. This is the same mechanism as is used for loading an OS. However, SPL builds do not normally use the full devicetree, but instead a cut-down version which various nodes and properties removed. Add a new fit,fdt-phase property to allow binman to produce these devicetree blobs. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: fit: Write the compatible string to configuration

2024-07-29T14:42:18Z

FIT allows the FDT's root-node compatible string to be placed in a configuration node to simplify and speed up finding the best match for booting. Add a new property to support this. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: fit: Allow providing FDT filenames in a directory

2024-07-29T14:42:18Z

In some cases the list of available FDT files is not available in an entryarg. Provide an option to point to a directory containing them instead. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Add support for alternative FDTs

2024-07-29T14:42:18Z

FIT provides a way to select between different devicetree blobs depending on the model. This works fine for U-Boot proper and allows SPL to select the correct blob for the current board at runtime. The boot sequence (SPL->U-Boot proper) is therefore covered by the existing feature set. The first boot phase (typically TPL) cannot use FIT since SoC boot ROMs don't currently support it. Therefore the TPL image must be specific to each model it boots on. To support booting on mulitple models, binman must therefore produce a separate TPL image for each model, even if the images for the rest of the phases are identical. TPL needs to be packaged as an executable binary along with a reduced devicetree. When multiple models are supported, a reduced devicetree must be provided for each model. U-Boot's build system is designed to build a single devicetree for SPL builds, so does not support this requirement. Add a new 'alternatives' feature to Binman, allowing it to automatically subset a devicetree to produce the reduced devicetree for a particular phase for each supported model. With this it is possible to produce a separate TPL image for each of the models. The correct one can then be loaded onto a board, along with the common FIT image(s). Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Allow entry types to override FDT contents

2024-07-29T14:42:18Z

At present the contents of an FDT (for each phase) are fixed, determined by the build and provided to Binman as input files. Provide a means for entry types to provide their own FDT, so that it can be processed, if needed. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

binman: Remove dependency on pylibfdt for entry-docs

2024-07-29T14:42:18Z

Allow the entry-docs command to operate even if pylibfdt is not present in the systemn. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass
