To reduce the complexity of the Makefile, let the generator tell what its dependencies are. For this purpose use the "--deps" option.
We recently added a generic FIT generator script for RISC-V, located at arch/riscv/lib/mkimage_fit_opensbi.sh . Can you add the --deps option to that script as well? It does not have any dependencies, so it can be handled the same way as in the i.MX and sunxi FIT generator scripts.
Can we please work on generalizing these scripts and either using binman, updating binman as needed or coming up with a POSIX SH tool that can do what needs doing? Thanks!
Maybe it can be done. But we would need to know first what the needs are.
In may case, all I need is to bundle at build time a set of DTB overlays with u-boot.bin and some DTBs.
For this binman is overkill, using dtc is enough, though I guess binman can be used instead.
OK, and in this case we're talking about tools/k3_fit_atf.sh which is based on board/sunxi/mksunxi_fit_atf.sh ? That's two similar but not quite just mergable POSIX SH tools. If we end up with an intermediate state of having tools/generators/ with a number of $(soc)_fit_atf.sh scripts that'll start to make it clearer what is/isn't the same. Maybe we won't have a single tool, but if it's at least make it clearer where things belong and we can get consistency. Thanks!
