Ok, I had to recover why I needed this patch (yes, commit message
needs update!)... I just working on moving the aristainetos board to
support DM/DTB and I need MULTI_DTB_FIT support...
When I activated CONFIG_MULTI_DTB_FIT not the fit blob was appended
to the u-boot-nodtb.bin to get the u-boot-dtb.imx binary, instead
dt/dtb.bin from the dts subdirectory was used.
(Yes, currently aristainetos board do not use SPL ...)
Reason is:
in arch/arm/mach-imx/Makefile:
129 ifeq ($(CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE),y)
130 MKIMAGEFLAGS_u-boot-dtb.imx = -n $(filter-out $(PLUGIN).bin $< $(PHONY),$^) \
131 -T $(IMAGE_TYPE) -e $(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE)
132 u-boot-dtb.imx: MKIMAGEOUTPUT = u-boot-dtb.imx.log
133
134 u-boot-dtb.imx: u-boot-dtb.bin u-boot-dtb.cfgout $(PLUGIN).bin FORCE
135 ifeq ($(DEPFILE_EXISTS),0)
136 $(call if_changed,mkimage)
with Makefile
1080 else ifeq ($(CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE),y)
1081 u-boot-dtb.bin: u-boot-nodtb.bin dts/dt.dtb FORCE
1082 $(call if_changed,cat)
So there is not the fit image appended to u-boot-nodtb.bin to get the
u-boot-dtb.imx binary, which my patch fixes.
I would reword the commit message and subject to:
"""
arm, imx, Makefile: fix u-boot-dtb.imx build in CONFIG_MULTI_DTB_FIT case
in case CONFIG_MULTI_DTB_FIT is set and u-boot-dtb.imx
image is build, currently u-boot-dtb.bin is used for
generating the u-boot-dtb.imx binary, which is wrong, as
it contains only a dtb blob not the fit.blob
Use instead the u-boot-fit-dtb.bin for generating
u-boot-dtb.imx which contains the fit.blob.
"""
Is this OK?
bye,
Heiko
