The fitImage is a successor of the U-Boot uImage format, which is considered legacy for years now. The fitImage allows packing multiple kernel images, DTBs and other artifacts into a single image, which can then be protected by SHA checksums and does even support signing the images for verified boot.
This patchset is the first stab at adding the new image format into Yocto.
