  • 85ebd0033   Fix IHEX firmware generation/loading ... Browse Code »

    Fix both the IHEX firmware generation (len field always null, and EOF
    marker a byte too short) and loading (struct ihex_binrec needs to be
    packed to reflect the on-disk structure).

  • 59890f74e   ihex: Add support for long records to ihex2fw.c ... Browse Code »

    Some drivers could do with using records like Intel HEX, but with each
    record being larger than 256 bytes. This has been possible in the binary
    representation (struct ihex_binrec) in the kernel since the beginning --
    at least of the the current version of history. But we haven't been able
    to represent that in the .HEX files which get converted to .fw files.

    This adds a '-w' option to ihex2fw to make it interpret the first _two_
    bytes of each line as the record length, instead of only one byte. And
    adds makefile rules for %.H16->%.fw which use that.

  • 8bd6b2229   ihex: add ihex2fw tool for converting HEX files into firmware images ... Browse Code »

    Not the straight conversion to binary which objcopy can do for us, but
    actually representing each record with its original {addr, length},
    because some drivers need that information preserved.

    Fix up 'firmware_install' to be able to build $(hostprogs-y) too.
