[PATCH v2 2/2] schemas: Add a schema for binman

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



With this version I have done with a generic name, in this case 'data',
as suggested by Alper Nebi Yasak. This may be controversial, but we may
as well have the dicussion now. I assume that there are no other
ongoing attempts to define the layout of firmware in devicetree.

Changes in v2:
- Reworked significantly based on Alper's comments

+title: Image entry
+
+maintainers:
+  - Simon Glass <sjg@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
+
+description: |
+  The entry node specifies a single entry in the firmware image.
+
+  Entries have a specific type, such as "u-boot" or "atf-bl31". This is provided
+  using compatible = "data,<type>".
+
+  Note: This definition is intended to be hierarchical, so that entries can
+  appear in other entries. Schema for that is TBD.
+
+properties:
+  $nodename:
+    pattern: "^[-a-z]+(-[0-9]+)?$"
+
+  compatible:
+    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/string
+
+  offset:
+    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32
+    description: |
+      Provides the offset of this entry from the start of its parent section.
+
+      This may be omitted in the description provided by Binman, in which case
+      the value is calculated as part of image packing.
+
+  size:
+    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32
+    description: |
+      Provides the size of this entry in bytes.
+
+      This may be omitted in the description provided by Binman, in which case
+      the value is calculated as part of image packing.
+
+  reg:
+    description: |
+      Defines the offset and size of this entry, with reference to its parent
+      image / section.
+
+      Note This is typically omitted in the description provided to Binman,
+      since the value is calculated as part of image packing. Separate
+      properties are provided for the size and offset of an entry, so that it is
+      easy to specify none, one or both. The `reg` property is the only one that
+      needs to be looked at once the image has been built.
+

+    firmware {

+title: Binman firmware layout
+
+maintainers:
+  - Simon Glass <sjg@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
+
+description: |
+  The image node provides a layout for firmware, used when packaging firmware
+  from multiple projects. For now it just supports a very simple set of
+  features, as a starting point for discussion.
+
+  The Binman tool processes this node to produce a final image which can be
+  loaded into suitable storage device. Documentation is at:
+
+  https://u-boot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/develop/package/binman.html
+
+  The current image-description format is here:
+
+  https://u-boot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/develop/package/binman.html#image-description-format
+
+  It is desirable to reference the image from the storage-device node, perhaps
+  using an image-desc property:
+
+    spiflash@0 {
+      compatible = "spidev", "jedec,spi-nor";
+      image-desc = <&image>;
+    };
+
+  Note that the intention is to change Binman to use whatever schema is agreed
+  here.
+
+properties:
+  $nodename:
+    const: binman
+
+  compatible:
+    const: data,image
+
+  "#address-cells":
+    const: 1
+
+  "#size-cells":
+    const: 1
+
+required:
+  - compatible
+  - "#address-cell"
+  - "#size-cells"
+
+additionalProperties: false
+
+examples:
+  - |
+    firmware {
+      image {
+        compatible = "data,image";
+        #address-cells = <1>;
+        $size-cells = <1>;
+
+        u-boot@0 {
+          compatible = "data,u-boot";
+          reg = <0 0xa0000>;
+        };
+
+        atf-bl31@0x100000 {
+          compatible = "data,atf-bl31";
+          reg = <0x100000 0x20000>;
+        };
+      };
+    };
