This patchset contains generic firmware loader which is very close to Linux firmware loader but for U-Boot framework. Generic firmware loader can be used load whatever into target location, and then consumer driver would use it to program whatever, ie. the FPGA. This version mainly resolved comments from Lothar Waßmann, and Lukasz Majewski in [v4].
This series is working on top of u-boot.git - http://git.denx.de/u-boot.git .
[v4]: https://www.mail-archive.com/u-boot@lists.denx.de/msg272432.html
v4 -> v5 changes: ----------------- - Changed the env variable name to lower case. - Added memory freeing function in failure case. - Assign valid pointer to *firmware_p only when everything is OK. - Removed the casting on void pointer when assigning to any type pointer. - Fixed with the right return code.
