To quote the author:
This series provides a means to edit board configuration in U-Boot in a
graphical manner. It supports multiple menu items and allows moving
between them and selecting items. The configuration is defined in a data
format so that code is not needed in most cases. This allows the board
configuration to be provided in the devicetree.
This is still at an early stage, since it only supports menus. Numeric
values are not supported. Most importantly it does not yet support
loading or saving the configuration selected by the user.
To try it out you can use something like:
./tools/expo.py -e test/boot/files/expo_layout.dts \
-l test/boot/files/expo_layout.dts -o cedit.dtb
./u-boot -Tl -c "cedit load hostfs - cedit.dtb; cedit run"
Use the arrow keys to move between menus, enter to open a menu, escape
to exit.
Various minor fixes and improvements are provided in this series:
- Update STB TrueType library to latest
- Support clearing part of the video display
- Support multiple livetrees loaded at runtime
- Support loading and allocating a file
- Support proper measuring of text in expo
- Support simple themes for expo
This was brought in in 2016 and a number of changes have been made since
then. There does not seem to be much change in functionality, but it is
a good idea to update from time to time.
Bring in the latest version:
5736b15 ("re-add perlin noise again")
Add a few necessary functions, with dummies in some cases. Update the tests
as there are subtle changes in rendering, perhaps not for the better.

Add a new 'cedit' command which allows editing configuration using an
expo. The configuration items appear as menus on the display.
This is extremely basic, only supporting menus and not providing any way
to load or save the configuration.

The only way to create an expo at present is by calling the functions to
create each object. It is useful to have more data-driven approach, where
the objects can be specified in a suitable file format and created from
that. This makes testing easier as well.
Add support for describing an expo in a devicetree node. This allows more
complex tests to be set up, as well as providing an easier format for
users. It also provides a better basis for the upcoming configuration
editor.

It looks better if menus have a bit of an inset, rather than be drawn hard
up against the background. Also, menu items look better if they have a bit
of spacing between them.
Add theme options for these and implement the required changes.

In 'popup' mode, the expo allows moving around the objects in a scene.
When 'enter' is pressed on a menu, it opens and the user can move around
the items in the menu.
Implement this using keypress handles and actions.

When a menu is opened, it must be displayed over all other objects in
the scene, so that all its items are visible.
Handle this by drawing the menu object a second time, after all other
objects have been drawn. Draw all of the objects which are dependent
on the menu object.

When a popup menu is closed it shows only the selected item. When it is
open it shows a background and all items, with a highlight that can be
moved between the items.
Add the drawing logic for this.

At present we only support a single menu, so all that can be pointed to
is the current menu item. Rename this action so that we can also add
an action for pointing to an object. This will allow cycling through
the objects in a scene.
Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
At present only a single menu is supported. All items are shown and a
pointer object points to the current item.
Add support for multiple menus, one of which is highlighted, indicated
by the highlight_id property in the scene.
The highlighted menu item has a SCENEOF_POINT flag, indicating that it
is currently pointed to.
The popup menu is normally closed, in which case it shows only the
current menu item. When it is opened, it shows all items, allowing the
user to select one.
Rather than requiring the menu item to have a description, require it to
have a label. Use the label (only) for the popup menu.
With this, most of the drawing and layout logic is complete.
Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
The current implementation supports a 'pointer' object which points to
the currently highlighted menu item. We want to support highlighting the
label of the menu item instead, e.g. with inverse video. In this case we
will need to 'unhighlight' the old item and highlight the new one.
As a first step, move the pointer logic into a function. This fixes a
bug where the item is hidden when it should not be.

It is a pain to manually set the fonts of all objects to be consistent.
Some spacing settings are also better set globally than by manually
positioning each object.
Add a 'theme' to the expo, to hold this information. For now it includes
only the font size.

Provide a way to set the full dimensions of objects, i.e. including the
width and height.
For menus, calculate the bounding box of all objects in the menu. Set all
labels to be the same size, so that highlighting works correct, once
implemented.

Rather than estimating, measure the text accurately, using the new
vidconsole feature. This allows accurate placement of objects.

We currently have just a 'hide' property for each object. In preparation
for adding more properties, convert the struct to use a flags value,
instead of individual booleans. This is more extensible.
Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
At present objects only have a position so it is not possible to determine
the amount of space they take up on the display.
Add width and height properties, using a struct to keep all the dimensions
together.
For now this is not used. Future work will set up these new properties.

Provide a way to set this value so that it is easy to separate the
statically allocated IDs (generated by the caller) from those
generated dynamically by expo itself.

For laying out text accurately it is necessary to know the width and
height of the text. Add a measure() method to the console API, so this
can be supported.

Fixes: a032e4b55e ("video: Move console colours to the video uclass")
This feature is different enough from bootstd that it probably deserves
its own log category. It cannot use a uclass since it is not a device.

At present livetree can only be used for the control FDT. It is useful
to be able to use the ofnode API for other FDTs, e.g. those used by
the upcoming configuration editor.
We already have most of the support present, and tests can be marked with
the UT_TESTF_OTHER_FDT flag to use another FDT as a special case. But
with this change, the functionality becomes more generally available.
Plumb in the require support.

Ensure that the block of memory used by live tree is aligned according to
the default for structures. This ensures that the root node appears at
the start of the block, so it can be used with free(), rather than being
4 bytes later in some cases.
This corrects a rather obscure bug in unflatten_device_tree().

This functionality current sits in bootstd, but it is more generally
useful. Add a function to load a file into memory, allocating it as
needed. Adjust bootstd to use this version.
Note: Tests are added in the subsequent patch which converts the 'cat'
command to use this function.

The putc_xy() method is supposed to return the amount of space used. The
existing implementation erroneously adds the previous sub-pixel position
to the returned value. This spaces out the characters very slightly more
than it should. It is seldom noticeable but it does make accurate
measurement of the text impossible.
Fix this minor but long-standing bug.

This is useful when the background colour must be written before text

At present there are various restrictions on the use of livetree:
- It is only available once the tree is unflattened, i.e. after relocation
- It is designed to be used with the control FDT
- It can (in principle) be used with other FDTs, but only if they are
unflattened first; this is not supported
Add a few checks to make sure that any tree that is created is actually
valid. Otherwise it can be confusing when nodes and properties cannot
actually be accessed.

Devices do not necessarily have nodes attached to them, since they can be

This test was written for the incorrect use of assertions. Update it to
build with the previous approach, where tests fail at the first
assertion.
All assertion functions return 0 on success and non-zero on failure.
They can be nested into functions simply by declaring a function that
returns an int and using ut_assertok() to call it.
