2023-02-06cmd: Add a SEAMA image load commandLinus Walleij
Add a command to load SEAMA (Seattle Image), a NAND flash on-flash storage format. This type of flash image is found in some D-Link routers such as DIR-645, DIR-842, DIR-859, DIR-860L, DIR-885L, DIR890L and DCH-M225, as well as in WD and NEC routers on the ath79 (MIPS), Broadcom BCM53xx, and RAMIPS platforms. This U-Boot command will read and decode a SEAMA image from raw NAND flash on any platform. As it is always using big endian format for the data decoding is always necessary on platforms such as ARM. The command is needed to read a SEAMA-encoded boot image on the D-Link DIR-890L router for boot from NAND flash in an upcoming port of U-Boot to the Broadcom Northstar (BCM4709, BCM53xx) architecture. A basic test and documentation is added as well. The test must be run on a target with NAND flash support and at least one resident SEAMA image in flash.

2023-02-06bootstd: Add some default filesystems and commandsSimon Glass
We need to support a basic set of filesystems for booting to work in most cases. Add these in via a new option, letting the board disable them individually (for space reasons) if desired. This enables the filesystem commands as well as the actual functionality, even though bootstd is quite happy to use ext4 without the ext4 command. Further work would be needed to disintangle this and reduce code size. Add several other options as well, providing sensible defaults. We cannot enable this by default, since it expands the size of many boards quite a lot. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <[email protected]>

ODROID-N2L is a variant SBC in small form factor and some peripherals are removed from ODROID-N2PLUS based on S922X SoC. - On-board ethernet is removed - On-board RTC is removed - USB 3.0 hub is removed, so one USB 2.0 and one USB 3.0 host ports are available - Huge heatsink is replaced with 40x40mm heatsink, 5V active heatsink is recommended or a tall passive sink is optional - 3.5mm earjack is removed - IR remote receiver is removed - MIPI DSI port is added It doesn't use the odroid-n2 board support since ADC revision collides with Odroid-N2+ and since it doesn't have on-board ethernet no need to load the MAC address from eFuses.

2023-01-27mkimage: fit: Support signed configurations in 'auto' FITsMassimo Pegorer
Extend support for signing in auto-generated (-f auto) FIT. Previously, it was possible to get signed 'images' subnodes in the FIT using options -g and -o together with -f auto. This patch allows signing 'configurations' subnodes instead of 'images' ones (which are hashed), using option -f auto-conf instead of -f auto. Adding also -K <dtb> and -r options, will add public key to <dtb> file with required = "conf" property. Summary: -f auto => FIT with crc32 images -f auto -g ... -o ... => FIT with signed images -f auto-conf -g ... -o ... => FIT with sha1 images and signed confs Example: FIT with kernel, two device tree files, and signed configurations; public key (needed to verify signatures) is added to u-boot.dtb with required = "conf" property. mkimage -f auto-conf -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 43e00000 \ -e 0 -d vmlinuz -b /path/to/first.dtb -b /path/to/second.dtb \ -k /folder/with/key-files -g keyname -o sha256,rsa4096 \ -K u-boot.dtb -r kernel.itb Example: Add public key with required = "conf" property to u-boot.dtb without needing to sign anything. This will also create a useless FIT named unused.itb. mkimage -f auto-conf -d /dev/null -k /folder/with/key-files \ -g keyname -o sha256,rsa4096 -K u-boot.dtb -r unused.itb Signed-off-by: Massimo Pegorer <[email protected]> Reviewed-by: Simon Glass <[email protected]>

2023-01-20global: Finish CONFIG -> CFG migrationTom Rini
At this point, the remaining places where we have a symbol that is defined as CONFIG_... are in fairly odd locations. While as much dead code has been removed as possible, some of these locations are simply less obvious at first. In other cases, this code is used, but was defined in such a way as to have been missed by earlier checks. Perform a rename of all such remaining symbols to be CFG_... rather than CONFIG_...

2023-01-17Merge branch '2022-01-16-bootstd-updates'Tom Rini
To quote the author: So far standard boot lacks a boot menu, although it is possible to create a rudimentary one using the existing 'bootmenu' command. Even then, this text-based menu offer only basic functionality and does not take full advantage of the displays which are common on many devices. This series provides a 'bootflow menu' command which allows the user to select from the available bootflows. An attempt is made to show the name of the available operating systems, by reading more information into the bootflow. A logo can be read also, where supported, so that this can be presented to the user when an option is highlighted. Full use is made of TrueType fonts, if enabled. For cases where only a serial console is available, it falls back to a simple text-based menu. All of this is implementing using a new 'expo' construct, a collection of scenes (like menu screens) which can be navigated by the user to view information and select options. This is fairly general and should be able to cope with a wider array of use cases, with less hacking of the menu code, such as is currently needed for CMD_BOOTEFI_BOOTMGR. Of course it would be possible to enhance the existing menu rather than creating a new setup. Instead it seems better to make the existing menu use expo, if code space permits. It avoids the event-loop problem and should be more extensible, given its loosely coupled components and use of IDs instead of pointers. Further motivation is provided in the documentation. For now the CLI keypress-decoding code is split out to be used by the new menu. The key codes defined by menu.h are reused also. This is of course just a starting point. Some ideas for future work are included in the documentation.
