[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 19/27] mkimage: Support automatic creating of a FIT without a .its

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Tue Feb 23 06:55:51 CET 2016


At present, when generating a FIT, mkimage requires a .its file containing
the structure of the FIT and referring to the images to be included.

Creating the .its file is a separate step that makes it harder to use FIT.
This is not required for creating legacy images.

Often the FIT is pretty standard, consisting of an OS image, some device
tree files and a single configuration. We can handle this case automatically
and avoid needing a .its file at all.

To start with, support automatically generate the FIT using a new '-f auto'
option. Initially this only supports adding a single image (e.g. a linux
kernel) and a single configuration.

Changes in v2:
- Rename the function to fdt_property_placeholder()
