The ObtainContents() and GetEntryContents() methods in this file read
every single entry in the section. This is the common case.
However when one of the entries has had its data updated (e.g. with
'binman replace') we don't want to read it again from the file. Allow
the entry to be skipped, for this purpose. This is currently done in the
CBFS implementation, so adding it here will allow that to use more of

Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
Generally the content of sections is not built until the final assembly
of the image. This is partly to avoid wasting time, since the entries
within sections may change multiple times as binman works through its
various stages. This works quite well since sections exist in a strict
hierarchy, so they can be processed in a depth-first manner.
However the 'collection' entry type does not have this luxury. If it
contains a section within its 'content' list, then it must produce the
section contents, if available. That section is typically a sibling
node, i.e. not part oc the collection's hierarchy.
Add a new 'required' argument to section.GetData() to support this. When
required is True, any referenced sections are immediately built. If this
is not possible (because one of the subentries does not have its data yet)
then an error is produced.
The test for this uses a 'collection' entry type, referencing a section as
its first member. This forces a call to _BuildSectionData() with required
set to False, at first, then True later, when the image is assembled.

Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
At present, before any entry expansion is done (such as a 'files' entry
expanding out to individual entries for each file it contains), we check
the binman definition (i.e. '/binman' node) to find out what devicetree
files are used in the images.
This is a pain, since the definition may change during expansion. For
example if there is no u-boot-spl-dtb entry in the definition at the start,
we assume that the SPL devicetree is not used. But if an entry later
expands to include this, then we don't notice.
In fact the flexibility provided by the current approach of checking the
definition is not really useful. We know that we can have SPL and TPL
devicetrees. We know the pathname to each, so we can simply check if the
files are present. If they are present, we can prepare them and update
them regardless of whether they are actually used. If they are not present,
we cannot prepare/update them anyway, i.e. an error will be generated.
Simplify state.Prepare() so it uses a hard-coded list of devicetree files.
Note that state.PrepareFromLoadedData() is left untouched, since in that
case we have a complete definition from the loaded file, but cannot of
course rely on the devicetree files that created it still being present.
So in that case we still check the image defitions.

Normally when an entry is created, any entry arguments it has are required

However when an existing image is read, Entry objects are created for each
of the entries in the image. This happens as part of the process of
reading the image into binman.
In this case we don't need the entry arguments, since we do not intend to
regenerate the entries, or at least not unless requested. So there is no

For example, the u-boot-elf etype directly uses 'strip'. Trying to run
the tests with 'CROSS_COMPILE=i686-linux-gnu- binman test' on an arm64

This also adjusts some command.Output() calls that caused test errors or
failures to use the target versions of the tools they call. After this,
patch, an arm64 host can run all tests with no errors or failures using
a correct CROSS_COMPILE value.

These test files are currently "intended for use on x86 hosts", but most
of the tests using them can still pass when cross-compiled to x86 on an
arm64 host.
This patch enables non-x86 hosts to run the tests by specifying a
cross-compiler via CROSS_COMPILE. The list of variables it sets is taken
from the top-level Makefile. It would be possible to automatically set
an x86 cross-compiler with a few blocks like:
ifneq ($(shell i386-linux-gnu-gcc --version 2> /dev/null),)
CROSS_COMPILE = i386-linux-gnu-
endif
But it wouldn't propagate to the binman process calling this Makefile,
so it's better just raise an error and expect 'binman test' to be run
with a correct CROSS_COMPILE.

If an entry argument is needed by an entry but the entry argument is not
present, then a strange error can occur when trying to read the file.
Fix this by allowing arguments to be required. Select this option for the

used.
Also tidy up a few related tests to make the error string easier to find,

When reading subentries of each image, the FIT entry type directly
concatenates their contents without padding them according to their
offset, size, align, align-size, align-end, pad-before, pad-after
properties.
This patch makes sure these properties are respected by offloading this
image-data building to the section etype, where each subnode of the
"images" node is processed as a section. Alignments and offsets are
respective to the beginning of each image. For example, the following
fragment can end up having "u-boot-spl" start at 0x88 within the final
FIT binary, while "u-boot" would then end up starting at e.g. 0x20088.
fit {
description = "example";
images {
kernel-1 {
description = "U-Boot with SPL";
type = "kernel";
arch = "arm64";
os = "linux";
compression = "none";
u-boot-spl {
};
u-boot {
align = <0x10000>;
};
};
};
}

Other relevant properties (pad-after, offset, size, align, align-size,

data (.offset, .size variables), but some padding here is necessary to
align the data within this range to match the pad-before property.

If a test that relies on this file happens to run after it is removed, it

FIT (Flat Image Tree) is the main image format used by U-Boot. In some
cases scripts are used to create FITs within the U-Boot build system. This
is not ideal for various reasons:
- Each architecture has its own slightly different script
- There are no tests
- Some are written in shell, some in Python
To help address this, add support for FIT generation to binman. This works
by putting the FIT source directly in the binman definition, with the
ability to adjust parameters, etc. The contents of each FIT image come
from sub-entries of the image, as is normal with binman.
