tools: Fall back to importlib_resources on Python 3.6

2023-04-28T17:49:00Z

importlib.resources became part of 3.7 only. Allow using distros with 3.6 and the importlib_resources backport. Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka Reviewed-by: Simon Glass

buildman: Use importlib to find the help

2023-03-08T19:40:49Z

Use this function so that the help can be found even when buildman is running from a package. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

buildman: Fix use of a type as a variable

2023-03-08T19:40:49Z

Using 'str' as a variable makes it impossible to use it as a type in the same function. Fix this by using a different name. 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

buildman: Add a flag for reproducible builds

2023-03-08T19:38:48Z

This is quite a useful thing to use when building since it avoids small size changes between commits. Add a -r flag for it. Also undefine CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO since this appends the git hash to the version string, causing every build to be slightly different. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

buildman: Support disabling LTO

2023-03-08T19:38:48Z

This cuts down build performance considerably and is not always needed, when checking for build errors, etc. Add a flag to disable it. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

buildman: Add --allow-missing flag to allow missing blobs

2022-11-22T22:13:35Z

Add a new flag to buildman so that we will in turn pass BINMAN_ALLOW_MISSING=1 to 'make'. Make use of this flag in CI. Allow the settings file to control this. Cc: Rasmus Villemoes Cc: Simon Glass Signed-off-by: Tom Rini Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

buildman: Convert documentation to rST

2022-11-22T22:13:34Z

Convert the buildman documentation to rST format and include it in the 'build' section. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass Reviewed-by: Quentin Schulz

buildman: Return an error if there are maintainer warnings

2022-08-05T15:47:56Z

Detect warnings about missing maintain info and return result code 2 in that case. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

buildman: Incorporate the genboardscfg.py tool

2022-08-05T15:47:56Z

Bring this tool into buildman, so we don't have to run it separately. The board.cfg file is still produced as part of the build, to save time when doing another build in the same working directory. If it is out of date with respect to the Kconfig, it is updated. Time to regenerate on a recent single-thread machine is 4.6s (1.3s on a 32-thread machine), so we do need some sort of cache if we want buildman to be useful on incremental builds. We could use Python's pickle format but: - it seems useful to allow boards.cfg to be regenerated, at least for a while, in case other tools use it - it is possible to grep the file easily, e.g. to find boards which use a particular SoC (similar to 'buildman -nv ' Signed-off-by: Simon Glass Suggested-by: Tom Rini
