2019-07-10patman: Allow reading files in text modeSimon Glass
While reading files in binary mode is the norm, sometimes we want to use text mode. Add an optional parameter to handle this. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2019-07-10dtoc: Use byte type instead of str in fdtSimon Glass
In Python 3 bytes and str are separate types. Use bytes to ensure that the code functions correctly with Python 3. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2019-07-10dtoc: Updates BytesToValue() for Python 3Simon Glass
The difference between the bytes and str types in Python 3 requires a number of minor changes to this function. Update it to handle the input data using the 'bytes' type. Create two useful helper functions which can be used by other modules too. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2019-07-10patman: Move unicode helpers to toolsSimon Glass
Create helper functions in the tools module to deal with the differences between unicode in Python 2 (where we use the 'unicode' type) and Python 3 (where we use the 'str' type). Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2019-07-10binman: Handle repeated bytes for Python 3Simon Glass
The method of multiplying a character by a number works well for creating a repeated string in Python 2. But in Python 3 we need to use bytes() instead, to avoid unicode problems, since 'bytes' is no-longer just an alias of 'str'. Create a function to handle this detail and call it from the relevant places in binman. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2019-07-10patman: Provide a way to get program output in binary modeSimon Glass
At present cros_subprocess and the tools library use a string to obtain stdout from a program. This works fine on Python 2. With Python 3 we end up with unicode errors in some cases. Fix this by providing a binary mode, which returns the data as bytes() instead of a string. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2018-10-08tools: Set an initial value for indirSimon Glass
This variable is not documented or set up in the module. Fix this. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2018-09-29binman: Support adding filesSimon Glass
In some cases it is useful to add a group of files to the image and be able to access them at run-time. Of course it is possible to generate the binman config file with a set of blobs each with a filename. But for convenience, add an entry type which can do this. Add required support (for adding nodes and string properties) into the state module. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2018-09-28patman: Detect missing tools and report themSimon Glass
When tools are needed but not present, at present we just get an error which can be confusing for the user. Try to be helpful by reporting the tool as missing and suggesting a possible remedy. Also update the Run() method to support this. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2018-08-01patman: Show the current directory in GetInputFilename()Simon Glass
When this fails it is useful to see the current directory, since U-Boot's build system will typically change into the output directory during the build. Add this information to the error. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2018-08-01patman: Add a few more helpers to the tools librarySimon Glass
Add functions to read and write a file, looking through a list of search paths to find it. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2018-05-07SPDX: Convert all of our single license tags to Linux Kernel styleTom Rini
When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line) and with slightly different comment styles than us. In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style. This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag and have introduced one. Signed-off-by: Tom Rini <trini@konsulko.com>
2016-09-18patman: Add a tools library for using temporary filesSimon Glass
For tools which want to use input files and temporary output, it is useful to have the handling of these dealt with in one place. Add a new library which allows input files to be read, and output files to be written, all based on a common directory structure. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
