8edeac86db mkimage: fix generation of FIT image
Commit 7a439cadcf broke generation of SPL
loadable FIT images (CONFIG_SPL_LOAD_FIT).
Fix it by removing the unnecessary storage of expected image type. This was a
left over of the previous implementation. It is not longer necessary since the
mkimage -b switch always has one parameter.

7a439cadcf mkimage: fix argument parsing on BSD systems
The getopt(3) optstring '-' is a GNU extension which is not available on BSD
systems like OS X.

Remove this dependency by implementing argument parsing in another way. This
will also change the lately introduced '-b' switch behaviour.

722ebc8f84 mkimage: Support placing data outside the FIT
One limitation of FIT is that all the data is 'inline' within it, using a
'data' property in each image node. This means that to find out what is in
the FIT it is necessary to scan the entire file. Once loaded it can be
scanned and then the images can be copied to the correct place in memory.

In SPL it can take a significant amount of time to copy images around in
memory. Also loading data that does not end up being used is wasteful. It
would be useful if the FIT were small, acting as a directory, with the
actual data stored elsewhere.

This allows SPL to load the entire FIT, without the images, then load the
images it wants later.

Add a -E option to mkimage to request that it output an 'external' FIT.

fb4cce0f98 mkimage: Support adding device tree files to a FIT
To make the auto-FIT feature useful we need to be able to provide a list of
device tree files on the command line for mkimage to add into the FIT. Add
support for this feature.

So far there is no support for hashing or verified boot using this method.
For those cases, a .its file must still be provided.

8e35bb07eb mkimage: Support automatic creating of a FIT without a .its
At present, when generating a FIT, mkimage requires a .its file containing
the structure of the FIT and referring to the images to be included.

Creating the .its file is a separate step that makes it harder to use FIT.
This is not required for creating legacy images.

Often the FIT is pretty standard, consisting of an OS image, some device
tree files and a single configuration. We can handle this case automatically
and avoid needing a .its file at all.

To start with, support automatically generate the FIT using a new '-f auto'
option. Initially this only supports adding a single image (e.g. a linux
kernel) and a single configuration.

d505a09c1e mkimage: Allow a FIT to include an image of any type
At present FIT images are set up by providing a device tree source file
which is a file with a .its extension. We want to support automatically
creating this file based on the image supplied to mkimage. This means that
even though the final file type is always IH_TYPE_FLATDT, the image inside
may be something else.

c190fbd010 Gracefully handle 64-bit signed-extended 32-bit Load addresses
To follow the MIPS 32-bit and 64-bit memory map conventions (*) recent
MIPS Linux kernels are using a 64-bit sign extended value
(0xffffffff80010000) for the 32-bit load address (0x80010000) of the
Creator CI20 board kernel.  When this 64-bit argument was passed to
mkimage running on a 32-bit machine such as the Creator CI20 board the
load address was incorrectly formed from the upper 32-bit sign-extend
bits (0xffffffff) by the strtoul instead of from the lower 32-bits
(0x80010000).  The mkimage should be able to tolerate the longer
sign-extended 64-bit version of the 32-bit arguments with the use of
strtoull.  Use of the strtoll in place of the strtol in mkimage.c
resolves the issue of self hosted kernel builds for the Creator CI20
board (+) and (++).

3463314125 mkimage: Fix warning from fix for generating multi and script images again
Seems 6ae6e160 broke creating images in certain cases, there
are two problems with that patch.

First is that the expression "!x == 4 || !x == 6" is ambiguous.  The
intention here was "!(x == 4) || !(x == 6)" based on reading further in
the file, where this was borrowed from.  This however is interpreted by
gcc as "(!x) == 4 || (!x) == 6" and always false.  gcc-5.x will warn
about this case.

The second problem is that we do not want to test for the case of "(NOT x
is 4) OR (NOT x is 6)" but instead "(x is not equal to 4) AND (x is not
equal to 6)".  This is because in those two cases we already execute the
code question in another part of the file.  Rewrite the expression and
add parenthesis for clarity.

6ae6e16005 mkimage : Fix generating multi and script images
Seems 92a655c3 broke creating multi and script type images.
Since the file1:file2:file3 string does not get split up,
it fails on trying to open an non-existing file.

mkimage -A arm -O linux -T multi -C none -d zImage:splash.bmp:device.dtb uimage
tools/mkimage: Can't open zImage:splash.bmp:device.dtb: No such file or directory

Since the sizes of the different parts seem to get added in the actual
routine that handles multi and script type images, we can probably skip the
bit of the code that causes the failure for that type of images.

f86ed6a8d5 tools: moved code common to all image tools to a separated module.
In order to avoid duplicating code and keep only one point of modification,
the functions, structs and defines useful for "dumpimage" were moved from
"mkimage" to a common module called "imagetool".

This modification also weakens the coupling between image types (FIT, IMX, MXS,
and so on) and image tools (mkimage and dumpimage). Any tool may initialize the
"imagetool" through register_image_tool() function, while the image types
register themselves within an image tool using the register_image_type()
function:

                                                      +---------------+
                                               +------|   fit_image   |

                                                      +---------------+

          register_image_tool()           register_image_type()

Also, the struct "mkimage_params" was renamed to "image_tool_params" to make
clear its general purpose.

Add mkimage support for generating and verifying MXS bootstream.
The implementation here is mostly a glue code between MXSSB v0.4

Note that the mxsimage generator needs libcrypto from OpenSSL, I
therefore enabled the libcrypto/libssl unconditionally.

399c744b22 mkimage: Add -r option to specify keys that must be verified
Normally, multiple public keys can be provided and U-Boot is not
required to use all of them for verification. This is because some
images may not be signed, or may be optionally signed.

But we still need a mechanism to determine when a key must be used.
This feature cannot be implemented in the FIT itself, since anyone
could change it to mark a key as optional. The requirement for
key verification must go in with the public keys, in a place that
is protected from modification.

Add a -r option which tells mkimage to mark all keys that it uses
for signing as 'required'.

If some keys are optional and some are required, run mkimage several
times (perhaps with different key directories if some keys are very
secret) using the -F flag to update an existing FIT.

This brings the behavior of creating a FIT image in line with creating a
standard uImage, which also prints out the uImage contents after
creation.

1a99de2cb4 tools/mkimage: Assume FDT image type for FIT images
When building a Flattened Image Tree (FIT) the image type needs to be
"flat_dt".  Commit 89a4d6b12f introduced a
regression which caused the user to need to specify the "-T flat_dt"
parameter on the command line when building a FIT image.  The "-T
flat_dt" parameter should not be needed and is at odds with the current
FIT image documentation.

6a590c5f5f Building of FIT images does not work.
The type is not set for generation of the FIT images, resulting
in no images being created without printing or returning an error

89a4d6b12f tools: mkimage: split code into core, default and FIT image specific
This is a first step towards reorganizing the mkimage code to make it
easier to add support for additional images types. Current mkimage
code is specific to generating uImage and FIT image files, but the
same framework can be used to generate other image types like
Kirkwood boot images (kwbimage-TBD). For this, the mkimage code gets
reworked:

Here is the brief plan for the same:-
a) Split mkimage code into core and image specific support
b) Implement callback functions for image specific code
c) Move image type specific code to respective C files
       Currently there are two types of file generation/list
       supported (i.e uImage, FIT), the code is abstracted from
       mkimage.c/.h and put in default_image.c and fit_image.c;
       all code in these file is static except init function call
d) mkimage_register API is added to add new image type support
All above is addressed in this patch
e) Add kwbimage type support to this new framework (TBD)
This will be implemented in a following commit.
