[U-Boot] [PATCH v4 0/2] fit: Image node compression

[Julius Werner]

This patch series adds compression support for non-kernel FIT image
nodes (e.g. FDTs). The first patch adds the compression support
itself, the second adds a new feature to compatible string matching
that allows it to be useful with compressed FDTs.

Sandbox-tested with FIT images with and without compressed FDTs, with
and without overlays, in both compatible string matching and direct
config selection modes. Also expanded the test_fit pytest to include a
case with compressed kernel, FDT and ramdisk.

Julius Werner (2):
  fit: Support compression for non-kernel components (e.g. FDT)
    - Changes for v2:
      - Changed from only supporting compressed FDTs to supporting all
	non-kernel image node types.
    - Changes for v3:
      - Fixed up some debug output that was still written for v1.
      - Fixed a mistake with handling FIT_LOAD_OPTIONAL_NON_ZERO when
	'load' was 0 (i.e. unset).
      - Added compression test case to the test_fit pytest.
    - No changes for v4
  fit: Support compat string property in configuration node
    - No changes for v2
    - No changes for v3
    - Changes for v4:
      - Added documentation for compatible string in config node.
      - Added example .its file for compressed FDT with compat string in
	config node.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v4 1/2] fit: Support compression for non-kernel components (e.g. FDT)

[Julius Werner]

This patch adds support for compressing non-kernel image nodes in a FIT
image (kernel nodes could already be compressed previously). This can
reduce the size of FIT images and therefore improve boot times
(especially when an image bundles many different kernel FDTs). The
images will automatically be decompressed on load.

This patch does not support extracting compatible strings from
compressed FDTs, so it's not very helpful in conjunction with
CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH yet, but it can already be used in environments
that select the configuration to load explicitly.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v4 2/2] fit: Support compat string property in configuration node

[Julius Werner]

This patch adds support for an optional optimization to compatible
string matching where the compatible string property from the root node
of the kernel FDT can be copied into the configuration node of the FIT
image. This is most useful when using compressed FDTs or when using FDT
overlays, where the traditional extraction of the compatible string from
the kernel FDT itself is not easily possible.

 - No changes for v2
 - No changes for v3
 - Changes for v4:
   - Added documentation for compatible string in config node.
   - Added example .its file for compressed FDT with compat string in
     config node.

Hi Simon,

I forgot about these for a while, but I believe I addressed all the
feedback you still had in the latest version (v4). Looks like they
didn't get picked up anywhere though. Can you help?

This breaks tools-only_defconfig in non-trivial ways due to calling
bootm_decomp_image() which is not normally available to it.  Can you
please update things (it may just end up being common/Makefile that
needs tweaking) so that tools-only builds?  I'll then take a look and
make sure we don't also see unexpected size growth elsewhere.  Thanks!

Thanks for pointing that out! I think the best solution here would be
to move bootm_decomp_image() out of bootm.c, if we now want to have it
available in configurations that don't compile that file. I think
image.c would be a better home for it. Added another patch to move the
function and sent out v5 of the series, let me know what you think!
