Hello Tom,
-----Original Message----- From: U-Boot u-boot-bounces@lists.denx.de On Behalf Of Andrey Zhizhikin Sent: Friday, December 3, 2021 5:18 PM To: u-boot@lists.denx.de Cc: sbabic@denx.de; festevam@gmail.com; uboot-imx@nxp.com; peng.fan@nxp.com; hs@denx.de; t.remmet@phytec.de; jagan@amarulasolutions.com; marcel.ziswiler@toradex.com; iliev@ronetix.at; xypron.glpk@gmx.de; Andrey Zhizhikin andrey.zhizhikin@leica-geosystems.com Subject: [PATCH v2] imx8mq_evk: switch board to use binman for images
Currently i.MX8MQ EVK board still targeting the old image generation approach for image generation, which relies on the FIT generator that has been dropped from the tree.
Switch the board to use binman instead, which is a standard image generator now.
Update board documentation to correct build command, and advise latest firmware and TF-A versions to use.
NOTE: New image produced by binman does not have Signed HDMI FW support, this has been left on the side and does not interfere with the general boot flow.
Tested on: [i.MX8MQ rev2.0]
Signed-off-by: Andrey Zhizhikin andrey.zhizhikin@leica-geosystems.com
Changes in V2:
- Modify binman and documentation to use single flash.bin file instead of flash.bin+u-boot.itb combination, suggested by Fabio Estevam.
Since you've applied similar patch from Peng, this one is not needed anymore and can be dropped.
There are however few pieces that are present in this patch not picked up in any other patch like doc update, single flash.bin, etc.
I saw that Patrick Wildt had "single flash.bin" part submitted in [1], which would also be beneficial to have in 2022.01 for consistency, and would allow me to update imx8mq_evk machine in meta-freescale Yocto layer so it can be finally built with upstream BSP and 2022.01. If you can pick it up saw well - that would be ideal!
The rest I will extract and send as separate patches after 2022.01.
