This is somewhat annoying since you need either u-boot.bin or u-boot-dtb.bin
depending on whether device tree is used.
Adjust the build such that u-boot.bin includes a device tree, and the
plain binary is in u-boot-nodtb.bin. For now u-boot-dtb.bin remains the
same.
This should be acceptable since:
- without OF_CONTROL, u-boot.bin still does not include a device tree
- with OF_CONTROL, u-boot-dtb.bin does not change
The main impact is build systems which are set up to use u-boot.bin as
the output file and then add a device tree. These will have to change to use
u-boot-nodtb.bin instead.
That's probably going to annoy somebody. Have you put thought into how
such a build system could auto-detect which file it should use in order
to automatically adjust to the different file naming conventions of
different U-Boot versions or branches? If not, this change will burden
the operator of any tool or automated system with manually handling the
difference by branching their own code or processes:-(
Adjust tegra rules so it continues to produce the correct files.
I don't see anything Tegra-related in this patch. Perhaps patch 1/7 was
included here in a previous version and the commit description not updated?
Anyway, I think this patch doesn't affect me or Tegra's flashing tools.
For reference, the tool currently uses the following files:
u-boot
spl/u-boot-spl
u-boot-nodtb-tegra.bin
u-boot.dtb
u-boot-dtb-tegra.bin
