After migrating some boards from u-boot v2021.10 to v2022.01 I found this is still an issue. Build for example at91 board fails if CONFIG_TOOLS_LIBCRYPTO is disabled and build host has no openssl headers installed. (Error output below.)
Could anyone please have a look at this patch again?
Reviewing / accepting this patch is up to the u-boot maintainers, not me. I just provided this patch as I think it could be useful.
(Actually I don't need kwbimage for my target at all, why is it built for platforms not needing it in the first place?)
This is because mkimage is generic tool which supports all image formats supported by U-Boot. For example on x86 host it allows users to build different ARM images, not only x86. I guess this is primary intended for Linux distributions to support all U-Boot targets...
