This series implements read_all() so that it is possible to read all the
files relating to a bootflow, make adjustments and then boot.
Unfortunately quite a few things stand in the way, so this series
finishes off several pending items: zboot without CONFIG_CMDLINE,
required support in pxe_utils and the differing code in the extlinux and
PXE bootmeths. There is very little new code, but quite a lot of
refactoring.
The bootm, booti and bootz commands have all been refactored previously,
so that they can operate without needing CONFIG_CMDLINE to be enabled.
At the, time, zboot was left alone, since it is x86-specific and a bit
more trouble.
This series adds a programatic API for zboot and uses the forthcoming
bootstd 'image list' to collect information from an extlinux file. It is
therefore possible to parse the file, load the resulting images and then
examine/adjust the resulting bootflow, before booting.
The addition of options to extlinux resulted in the PXE and extlinux
bootmeth having slightly different features. This is tidied up in this
series, with common functions for both. This allows the same features
(loading images as a separate step) to be provided for PXE.
Simon Glass (39):
