[Buildroot] [PATCH 0/5] freescale: Factorize SD card generation scripts

Hello,
At the beginning, I wanted to use the script board/freescale/create-boot-sd.sh
to create an SD card for the imx6sololitevk board. I noticed that script was
not working with sfdisk (>=2.26). I sent a patch to fix it but Thomas Petazzoni
suggested me to use genimage.
I noticed the boards imx6ulevk, imx6sabresd, mx25pdk, mx51evk, mx53loco were
using the same genimage.cfg except for the name of the .dtb blobs. Therefore,
I created a common genimage template configuration genimage.cfg.template that
is used to create "on-the-fly" a genimage.cfg with the right .dtb file names.
Indeed, I added a common post-image.sh script that is able to guess from
${BR_CONFIG} what files should be copied.
Then, I noticed the boards imx6dlsabreauto, imx6dlsabresd, imx6qsabreauto,
imx6qsabresd, imx6sxsabresd were all using the script
board/freescale/create-boot-sd.sh which does not work with sfdisk (>=2.26). I
removed this script and changed the configuration of these boards in order to
make use of the common genimage template. The layout is actually slightly
different: in the script the offset of the first partition (boot) was +1MB and
is +8MB in the template. I do not think the offset of the first partition has
an impact on the freescale boards.
I changed the configuration of the imx6sololiteevk in order to use the common
genimage template. That was the reason of these patches.
Also, I tested this serie of patches with the imx6dlsabresd and the
imx6sololiteevk and I saw that U-Boot, in its default environment, was looking
for a zImage. As the zImage is the default kernel image format, I fixed the
configurations in order to eventually get a fully bootable SD card.
These patches may require some tests as I have tested them only for two boards.
Regards,
Georges
