Is this useful? For arm64, initrd is likely used. FIT should be created in unbrellea projects such as OpenEmbedded, Buildroot, etc. > Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <s...@chromium.org> > --- > > MAINTAINERS | 7 + > arch/arm64/Makefile | 3 +- > arch/arm64/boot/Makefile | 8 +- > scripts/Makefile.lib | 16 ++- > scripts/make_fit.py | 285 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > 5 files changed, 315 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) > create mode 100755 scripts/make_fit.py > > diff --git a/MAINTAINERS b/MAINTAINERS > index 2d13bbd69adb..d6955ebc3c24 100644 > --- a/MAINTAINERS > +++ b/MAINTAINERS > @@ -1575,6 +1575,13 @@ F: Documentation/process/maintainer-soc*.rst > F: arch/arm/boot/dts/Makefile > F: arch/arm64/boot/dts/Makefile > > +ARM64 FIT SUPPORT > +M: Simon Glass <s...@chromium.org> > +L: linux-arm-ker...@lists.infradead.org (moderated for non-subscribers) > +S: Maintained > +F: arch/arm64/boot/Makefile > +F: scripts/make_fit.py > + > ARM ARCHITECTED TIMER DRIVER > M: Mark Rutland <mark.rutl...@arm.com> > M: Marc Zyngier <m...@kernel.org> > diff --git a/arch/arm64/Makefile b/arch/arm64/Makefile > index 7b77b63e978f..d8290dcab6b6 100644 > --- a/arch/arm64/Makefile > +++ b/arch/arm64/Makefile > @@ -150,7 +150,7 @@ libs-$(CONFIG_EFI_STUB) += > $(objtree)/drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/lib.a > # Default target when executing plain make > boot := arch/arm64/boot > > -BOOT_TARGETS := Image.gz vmlinuz.efi > +BOOT_TARGETS := Image.gz vmlinuz.efi image.fit > > PHONY += $(BOOT_TARGETS) > > @@ -215,6 +215,7 @@ virtconfig: > define archhelp > echo '* Image.gz - Compressed kernel image > (arch/$(ARCH)/boot/Image.gz)' > echo ' Image - Uncompressed kernel image > (arch/$(ARCH)/boot/Image)' > +$(if $(CONFIG_EFI_ZBOOT),,echo ' image.fit - Flat Image Tree > (arch/$(ARCH)/boot/image.fit)') > echo ' install - Install uncompressed kernel' > echo ' zinstall - Install compressed kernel' > echo ' Install using (your) ~/bin/installkernel or' > diff --git a/arch/arm64/boot/Makefile b/arch/arm64/boot/Makefile > index 1761f5972443..a6e5b20b22bd 100644 > --- a/arch/arm64/boot/Makefile > +++ b/arch/arm64/boot/Makefile > @@ -16,7 +16,8 @@ > > OBJCOPYFLAGS_Image :=-O binary -R .note -R .note.gnu.build-id -R .comment -S > > -targets := Image Image.bz2 Image.gz Image.lz4 Image.lzma Image.lzo Image.zst > +targets := Image Image.bz2 Image.gz Image.lz4 Image.lzma Image.lzo \ > + Image.zst image.fit > > $(obj)/Image: vmlinux FORCE > $(call if_changed,objcopy) > @@ -39,6 +40,11 @@ $(obj)/Image.lzo: $(obj)/Image FORCE > $(obj)/Image.zst: $(obj)/Image FORCE > $(call if_changed,zstd) > > +ifndef CONFIG_EFI_ZBOOT > +$(obj)/image.fit: $(obj)/Image $(obj)/dts FORCE This is wrong. $(obj)/dts is a directory.
