Hi Thibaut,
Hi,
generally I'm not a fan to include workarounds for bugs which we do not have anymore in mainline U-Boot.
Hm, yeah, I can understand that...
Isn't there any other alternative for this?
Well, for my use case, we have to workaround this bug. We can do that (adding a byte at the end of some files) outside of mkimage, but it's really a u-boot thing, so, it could really go in there.
If it goes in, can we set a date to remove it again? Or do we have to carry it around forever? If the latter is the case then I'm really not a big fan of it. If you can fix the problem up in the "project where it is a problem", then the fix would better belong there.
Cheers Detlev
