scripts: mkits.sh: replace @ with - in nodes

2021-03-05T15:45:33Z

U-boot will reject the nodes with @ for the address since commit: https://gitlab.denx.de/u-boot/u-boot/-/commit/79af75f7776fc20b0d7eb6afe1e27c00fdb4b9b4 This in turn will cause the failure to boot with OpenWrt generated images. So, to rectify that simply replace @ with -. Signed-off-by: Daniel Golle (cover also newly added rootfs@1 and initrd@1 nodes) Signed-off-by: Robert Marko

treewide: rename IMAGE_PREFIX/IMAGE_NAME to DEVICE_IMG_*

2021-02-25T17:11:06Z

We so far had two variables IMG_PREFIX and IMAGE_PREFIX with different content. Since these names are obviously quite confusing, this patch renames the latter to DEVICE_IMG_PREFIX, as it's a device-dependent variable, while IMG_PREFIX is only (sub)target-dependent. For consistency, also rename IMAGE_NAME to DEVICE_IMG_NAME, as that's a device-dependent variable as well. Cc: Paul Spooren Signed-off-by: Adrian Schmutzler

image: allow building FIT and uImage with ramdisk

2021-02-24T01:35:20Z

Instead of embedding the initrd cpio archive into the kernel, allow for having an external ramdisk added to the FIT or uImage. This is useful to overcome kernel size limitations present in many stock bootloaders, as the ramdisk is then loaded seperately and doesn't add to the kernel size. Hence we can have larger ramdisks to host ie. installers with all binaries to flash included (or a web-based firmware selector). In terms of performance and total size the differences are neglectible. Signed-off-by: Daniel Golle

image: add support for building FIT image with filesystem

2021-02-24T01:35:20Z

Allow for single (external-data) FIT image to hold kernel, dtb and squashfs. In that way, the bootloader verifies the system integrity including the rootfs, because what's the point of checking that the hash of the kernel is correct if it won't boot in case of squashfs being corrupted? Better allow bootloader to check everything needed to make it at least up to failsafe mode. As a positive side effect this change also makes the sysupgrade process on nand potentially much easier as it is now. In short: mkimage has a parameter '-E' which allows generating FIT images with 'external' data rather than embedding the data into the device-tree blob itself. In this way, the FIT structure itself remains small and can be parsed easily (rather than having to page around megabytes of image content). This patch makes use of that and adds support for adding sub-images of type 'filesystem' which are used to store the squashfs. Now U-Boot can verify the whole OS and the new partition parsers added in the Linux kernel can detect the filesystem sub-images, create partitions for them, and select the active rootfs volume based on the configuration in FIT (passing configuration via device tree could be implemented easily at a later stage). This new FIT partition parser works for NOR flash (on top of mtdblock), NAND flash (on top of ubiblock) as well as classic block devices (ie. eMMC, SDcard, SATA, NVME, ...). It could even be used to mount such FIT images via `losetup -P` on a user PC if this patch gets included in Linux upstream one day ;) Signed-off-by: John Crispin Signed-off-by: Daniel Golle

This reverts commit b12288fa69b171f7c9405518c9bed3581a06f7ce. The patchelf approach is too fragile, and the only users of this have been converted to make patching unnecessary Leave the abi_version_str variable in place in rules.mk Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau
