Entries which include a section and need to obtain its contents call
GetData(), as with any other entry. But the current implementation of this
method in entry_Section requires the size of the section to be known. If
it is unknown, an error is produced, since size is None:
TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'NoneType'

adjusted to build up the section piece by piece, instead of patching each
entry into an existing bytearray.

Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
At present binman has a single entry type for the 16-bit code code needed

reset vector itself as well as the code to move to 32-bit mode.
However this is not very flexible since in some cases other data needs to
be included at the top of the SPI flash, in between these two pieces. For
example Intel requires that a FIT (Firmware Image Table) pointer be placed
0x40 bytes before the end of the ROM.

The positioning does not currently work correctly if at the end of an

When support for sections (and thus hierarchical images) was added to
binman, the decision was made to create a new Section class which could
be used by both Image and an Entry_section class. The decision between
using inheritance and composition was tricky to make, but in the end it
was decided that Image was different enough from Entry that it made sense
to put the implementation of sections in an entirely separate class. It
also has the advantage that core Image code does have to rely on an entry
class in the etype directory.
This work was mostly completed in commit:
8f1da50ccc "binman: Refactor much of the image code into 'section'
As a result of this, the Section class has its own version of things like
offset and size and these must be kept in sync with the parent
Entry_section class in some cases.
In the last year it has become apparent that the cost of keeping things in
sync is larger than expected, since more and more code wants to access
these properties.
An alternative approach, previously considered and rejected, now seems
better.
Adjust Image to be a subclass of Entry_section. Move the code from Section
(in bsection.py) to Entry_section and delete Section. Update all tests
accordingly.
This requires substantial changes to Image. Overall the changes reduce
code size by about 240 lines. While much of that is just boilerplate from
Section, there are quite a few functions in Entry_section which now do not
need to be overiden from Entry. This suggests the change is beneficial
even without further functionality being added.
A side benefit is that the properties of sections are now consistent with
other entries. This fixes a problem in testListCmd() where some properties
are missing for sections.
Unfortunately this is a very large commit since it is not feasible to do
the migration piecemeal. Given the substantial tests available and the
100% code coverage of binman, we should be able to do this safely.

typically passed to binman on the command line. The text is not itself
nul-terminated but this can be achieved if required by setting the size of
the entry to something larger than the text.

Sometimes it is useful to pass binman the value of an entry property from
the command line. For example some entries need access to files and it is
not always convenient to put these filenames in the image definition
(device tree).
Add a -a option which can be used like this:
-a<prop>=<value>
where
<prop> is the property to set
<value> is the value to set it to

At present each entry has an offset within its parent section. This is
useful for figuring out how entries relate to one another. However it
is sometimes necessary to locate an entry within an image, regardless
of which sections it is nested inside.
Add a new 'image-pos' property to provide this information. Also add
some documentation for the -u option binman provides, which updates the
device tree with final entry information.
Since the image position is a better symbol to use for the position of
U-Boot as obtained by SPL, update the SPL symbols to use this instead of
offset, which might be incorrect if hierarchical sections are used.

After some thought, I believe there is an unfortunate naming flaw in
binman. Entries have a position and size, but now that we support
hierarchical sections it is unclear whether a position should be an
absolute position within the image, or a relative position within its
parent section.
At present 'position' actually means the relative position. This indicates
a need for an 'image position' for code that wants to find the location of
an entry without having to do calculations back through parents to
discover this image position.
A better name for the current 'position' or 'pos' is 'offset'. It is not
always an absolute position, but it is always an offset from its parent
offset.
It is unfortunate to rename this concept now, 18 months after binman was
introduced. However I believe it is the right thing to do. The impact is
mostly limited to binman itself and a few changes to in-tree users to
binman:
tegra
sunxi
x86
The change makes old binman definitions (e.g. downstream or out-of-tree)
incompatible if they use the 'pos = <...>' property. Later work will
adjust binman to generate an error when it is used.

At present the contents of an entry are set in subclasses simply by
assigning to the data and content_size properties. Add some methods to do
this, so that we have more control. In particular, add a method to set the
contents without changing its size, so we can validate that case.
Add a test case for trying to change the size when this is not allowed.

This method is supposed to return the contents of an entry. However at
present there is no check that it actually does. Also some implementations
do not return 'True' to indicate success, as required.
Add a check for things working as expected, and correct the
implementations.
This requires some additional test cases to cover things which were missed
originally. Add these at the same time.

We want to support multiple sections within a single image. To do this,
move most of the Image class implementation into a new Section class. An
Image contains only a single Section, but at some point we will support
a new 'section' entry, thus allowing Sections within Sections.
Use the name 'bsection' for the module so we can use 'section' for the
etype module.

When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.
In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.
This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

In some cases when "more" is told to page a given file it will prepend
the output with:
::::::::::::::
/PATH/TO/THE/FILE
::::::::::::::
And when this happens the output will not match the expected length.
Further, if we use a different pager we will instead fail the coverage
tests as we will not have 100% coverage. Update the help test to remove
the string in question.

Binman construct images consisting of multiple binary files. These files
sometimes need to know (at run timme) where their peers are located. For
example, SPL may want to know where U-Boot is located in the image, so
that it can jump to U-Boot correctly on boot.
In general the positions where the binaries end up after binman has
finished packing them cannot be known at compile time. One reason for
this is that binman does not know the size of the binaries until
everything is compiled, linked and converted to binaries with objcopy.
To make this work, we add a feature to binman which checks each binary
for symbol names starting with '_binman'. These are then decoded to figure
out which entry and property they refer to. Then binman writes the value
of this symbol into the appropriate binary. With this, the symbol will
have the correct value at run time.
Macros are used to make this easier to use. As an example, this declares
a symbol that will access the 'u-boot-spl' entry to find the 'pos' value
(i.e. the position of SPL in the image):
binman_sym_declare(unsigned long, u_boot_spl, pos);
This converts to a symbol called '_binman_u_boot_spl_prop_pos' in any
binary that includes it. Binman then updates the value in that binary,
ensuring that it can be accessed at runtime with:
ulong u_boot_pos = binman_sym(ulong, u_boot_spl, pos);
This assigns the variable u_boot_pos to the position of SPL in the image.
