[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 07/29] binman: Add a new 'image-pos' property

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Wed Aug 1 21:22:42 UTC 2018


At present each entry has an offset within its parent section. This is
useful for figuring out how entries relate to one another. However it
is sometimes necessary to locate an entry within an image, regardless
of which sections it is nested inside.

Add a new 'image-pos' property to provide this information. Also add
some documentation for the -u option binman provides, which updates the
device tree with final entry information.

Since the image position is a better symbol to use for the position of
U-Boot as obtained by SPL, update the SPL symbols to use this instead of
offset, which might be incorrect if hierarchical sections are used.

Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg at chromium.org>

Changes in v2:
- Update U-Boot symbols to use image_pos instead of offset
- Update tests to include test coverage of image_pos

+Binman can update the U-Boot FDT to include the final position and size of
+each entry in the images it processes. The option to enable this is -u and it
+causes binman to make sure that the 'offset', 'image-pos' and 'size' properties

+the device tree. These can be used by U-Boot at run-time to find the location
