[PATCH v2 21/49] binman: Add support for generating a FIT

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Sun Jun 14 04:57:00 CEST 2020


FIT (Flat Image Tree) is the main image format used by U-Boot. In some
cases scripts are used to create FITs within the U-Boot build system. This
is not ideal for various reasons:

- Each architecture has its own slightly different script
- There are no tests
- Some are written in shell, some in Python

To help address this, add support for FIT generation to binman. This works
by putting the FIT source directly in the binman definition, with the
ability to adjust parameters, etc. The contents of each FIT image come
from sub-entries of the image, as is normal with binman.

+Entry: fit: Entry containing a FIT
+----------------------------------
+
+This calls mkimage to create a FIT (U-Boot Flat Image Tree) based on the
+input provided.
+
+Nodes for the FIT should be written out in the binman configuration just as
+they would be in a file passed to mkimage.
+
+For example, this creates an image containing a FIT with U-Boot SPL:
+
+    binman {
+        fit {
+            description = "Test FIT";
+
+            images {
+                kernel at 1 {
+                    description = "SPL";
+                    os = "u-boot";
+                    type = "rkspi";
+                    arch = "arm";
+                    compression = "none";
+                    load = <0>;
+                    entry = <0>;
+
+                    u-boot-spl {
+                    };
+                };
+            };
+        };
+    };
+
+Properties:
+    fit,external-offset: Indicates that the contents of the FIT are external
+        and provides the external offset. This is passsed to mkimage via
+        the -E and -p flags.
