mkimage: Fix variable length header support

2011-12-24T09:23:30+00:00

Support for variable length images like AIS image was introduced
in commit f0662105b674a3874227316abf8536bebc9b5995. A parameter
"-s" was also introduced to prohibit copying of the image file
automatically in the main program. However, this parameter
was implemented incorrectly and the image file was copied
nevertheless.

mkimage: Add variable lenght header support

2011-10-05T20:03:12+00:00

Some images have not a header of fix lenght. The patch will be
used for the generation of AIS images, because this header has
a variable lenght. The patch adds also the parameter "-s" (skip)
to not copy automatically the passed image file.

mkimage: fix Segmentation Fault when run without "-n name" option

2010-03-27T23:13:54+00:00

The restructuring of the mkimage command in commit 89a4d6b1 ("tools:
mkimage: split code into core, default and FIT image specific")
introduced a bug that caused mkimage to segfault when run without
"-n name" option.  Initialize the imagename entry to prevent that.

mkimage: dont force entry point with xip

2010-03-11T22:50:06+00:00

Some people boot images with the entry point in the middle of the blob
(like Linux with the head code in discardable .init.text), and there is no
no real requirement that the entry point be right after the mkimage header
when doing XIP, so let people specify whatever they want.  If they do need
an entry right after the header, then they still can do that with normal
-e behavior.
