Hi Simon,

Can you please suggest or briefly explain to me the steps to be
followed to generate the compressed u-boot-nodtb.bin.gz and
u-boot-nodtb.bin.lzma file  with the help of binman  ,
when compression support is enabled . Can you provide me with any
reference patch to get it done?

Thanks and regards,
