2022-11-07test: Add a way to detect a test that breaks anotherSimon Glass
When running unit tests, some may have side effects which cause a subsequent test to break. This can sometimes be seen when using 'ut dm' or similar. Add a new argument which allows a particular (failing) test to be run immediately after a certain number of tests have run. This allows the test causing the failure to be determined.

Add support for setting OEM flags in the capsule header. As per the UEFI specification, bits 0-15 of the flags member of the capsule header can be defined per capsule GUID. The oemflags will be used for the FWU Multi Bank update feature, as specified by the Dependable Boot specification[1].

2022-10-31image: Allow loading a FIT image for a particular phaseSimon Glass
Add support for filtering out FIT images by phase. Rather than adding yet another argument to this already overloaded function, use a composite value, where the phase is only added in if needed. The FIT config is still selected (and verified) as normal, but the images are selected based on the phase. Tests for this come in a little later, as part of the updated VPL test. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <[email protected]>
2022-10-31image: Add the concept of a phase to FITSimon Glass
We want to be able to mark an image as related to a phase, so we can easily load all the images for SPL or for U-Boot proper. Add this to the FIT specification, along with some access functions. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <[email protected]>
2022-10-31test: Support tests which can only be run manuallySimon Glass
At present we normally write tests either in Python or in C. But most Python tests end up doing a lot of checks which would be better done in C. Checks done in C are orders of magnitude faster and it is possible to get full access to U-Boot's internal workings, rather than just relying on the command line. The model is to have a Python test set up some things and then use C code (in a unit test) to check that they were done correctly. But we don't want those checks to happen as part of normal test running, since each C unit tests is dependent on the associate Python tests, so cannot run without it. To acheive this, add a new UT_TESTF_MANUAL flag to use with the C 'check' tests, so that they can be skipped by default when the 'ut' command is used. Require that tests have a name ending with '_norun', so that pytest knows to skip them. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <[email protected]>

2022-10-26dt/bindings: memory: Add bindings for TI GPMC driverRoger Quadros
GPMC stands for General Purpose Memory Controller and it is present on many Texas Instruments SoCs. It supports a number of Asynchronous and Synchronous interfaces and has various settings to configure the bus interface. The DT bindings define all the various GPMC settings. As the GPMC supports multiple devices on the bus, each device is represented as a child and the respective GPMC settings are situated there. (see ti,gpmc-child.yaml) These binding docs are picked up from the Linux kernel. Signed-off-by: Roger Quadros <[email protected]>

2022-10-24watchdog: introduce a u-boot,autostart propertyRasmus Villemoes
This is a companion to u-boot,noautostart. If one has a single watchdog device that one does want to have auto-started, but several others that one doesn't, the only way currently is to set the CONFIG_WATCHDOG_AUTOSTART and then use the opt-out for the majority. The main motivation for this is to add an autostarted watchdog device to the sandbox (to test a fix) without having to set AUTOSTART in sandbox_defconfig and add the noautostart property to the existing devices. But it's also nice for symmetry, and the logic in init_watchdog_dev() becomes simpler to read because we avoid all the negations. Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes <[email protected]>

2022-10-17vbe: Add a test for VBE device tree fixupsSimon Glass
When a FIT includes some OS requests, U-Boot should process these and add the requested info to corresponding subnodes of the /chosen node. Add a pytest for this, which sets up the FIT, runs bootm and then uses a C unit test to check that everything looks OK. The test needs to run on sandbox_flattree since we don't support device tree fixups on sandbox (live tree) yet. So enable BOOTMETH_VBE and disable bootflow_system(), since EFI is not supported on sandbox_flattree. Add a link to the initial documentation. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <[email protected]>

2022-10-17fdt: Show a message when the working FDT changesSimon Glass
The working FDT is the one which comes from the OS and is fixed up by U-Boot. When the bootm command runs, it sets up the working FDT to be the one it is about to pass to the OS, so that fixups can happen.
