2015-04-13util/ipqheader: Add utility to create uber-SBL for IPQ8064Vadim Bendebury
With the Storm image layout reworked, the very first blob read out of NOR SPI flash by the IPQ8064 maskrom is supposed to be a concatenation of three binaries: one to run on RPM, another one to run on AP, and the third one - the actual coreboot bootblock. This layout allows to greatly reduce the size and complexity of the two first blobs, as they do not need to include the SPI driver. The first binary in the input file list starts with the combined header, describing the rest of the blob. This utility copies the first input file into output, updating the combined header with the total size of the concatenated binaries. The second and third binaries in the combined image are required to be aligned at 256 byte offsets in the file as counted from the end of the combined header. The new utility allows to concatenate two or three files, always expecting the first file to be prepended by the combined header. For further reference below is the utility's help message: mbncat.py: [-v] [-h] [-o Output MBN] sbl1 sbl2 [bootblock] Concatenates up to three mbn files: two SBLs and a coreboot bootblock -h This message -v verbose -o Output file name, (default: sbl-ro.mbn) BRANCH=none BUG=chrome-os-partner:34161 TEST=run the new utility and compare the result with the output of the vendor provided tool. The output files are exactly the same.

2014-10-28A tool for IPQ8064 encapsulationVadim Bendebury
This is a copy of the tool provided by the vendor. It adds a header which tells the early stage loader where to load the next phase blob for execution. It is going to be used to encapsulate the bootblock. Usage of this tool is as follows: ipqheader.py <base-addr> <input-file> <output-file> Old-Change-Id: I448c006719f4f3dd5a6716ff2e47f7fc275c805e Signed-off-by: Vadim Bendebury <vbendeb@chromium.org> Reviewed-on: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/193494 Reviewed-by: Furquan Shaikh <furquan@chromium.org> Reviewed-by: Stefan Reinauer <reinauer@chromium.org> (cherry picked from commit 201630f8637eb627f0894ecd7bceb31017244ad4) Make ipqheader.py executable Modify the utility to become a Linux executable.
