mkimage -T mxs now support new flags in config file: NODISPLAYPROGRESS - makes boot silent
Please make this the other way -- that is, add flag to make the display not- silent. What does this mean anyway?
Default behaviour of current MXS booting is to print HTLLCHTLLC characters when before usual uboot output - it is a feature to debug early boot stages, signatures checking, etc. Negation here to not break default behaviour
That's OK, you can just patch the arch/arm/cpu/arm926ejs/mxs/mxsimage*cfg to keep the behavior intact.
VERBOSEPROGRESS - makes boot progress display more verbose
And how is the above different from this new flag?
I'm not really sure what this does (I haven't seen any differences with this flag on and off), but http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/SbFileFormat mentions existence of this bit. Unfortunately, Freescale documentation is not full and a bit hard to search and use :(
Do we need this at all then ?
Please document those flags in doc/README.mxsimage too. The code looks mostly OK, thanks !
Thank you for comments, I'll add documentation, fix DISPLAYPROGRESS and post a v2 of the patch.
Thanks!
