* | Add support for metadata in barebox imagesSascha Hauer2014-08-073-0/+58
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's often useful to get some information about a barebox image before starting or flashing it. This patch introduces barebox Image MetaData (IMD). When enabled a barebox image will contain a list of tags containing the desired information. We have tags for: - the barebox release (2014.07.0-00160-g035de50-dirty) - the build timestamp (#741 Mon Jul 28 15:08:54 CEST 2014) - the board model the image is intended for - the device tree toplevel compatible property Also there is an additional generic key-value store which stores parameters for which no dedicated tag exists. In this patch it is used for the memory size an image supports. Since there is no fixed offset in a barebox image which can be used for storing the information, the metadata is stored somewhere in the image and found by iterating over the image. This works for most image types, but obviously not for SoC images which are encoded or encrypted in some way. There is a 'imd' tool compiled from the same sources for barebox, for the compile host and for the target, so the metadata information is available whereever needed. For device tree boards the model and of_compatible tags are automatically generated. Example output of the imd tool for a Phytec phyFLEX image: build: #889 Wed Jul 30 16:08:54 CEST 2014 release: 2014.07.0-00167-g6b2070d-dirty parameter: memsize=1024 of_compatible: phytec,imx6x-pbab01 phytec,imx6dl-pfla02 fsl,imx6dl model: Phytec phyFLEX-i.MX6 Duallite Carrier-Board Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>

This is a rewrite of the Documentation in reStructuredText format using Sphinx as build system, see http://sphinx-doc.org/. The documentation is built into static html pages with 'make docs'. The pages can be found under Documentation/html after building. Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>
