This package contains the Freescale manufacturing tool.
It is designed to program firmware to i.MX boards during production.
The communication is done over USB using the Freescale UTP protocol.

The project is maintained on NXPMicro Github repository:
https://github.com/NXPmicro/mfgtools

Changelog v1 -> v2:
- Use host-cmake-package and build the CLI as a post build hook
- Fix licenses: now BSD-3c and CPOL
- Fix MFGTOOLS_CFLAGS and rename it HOST_MFGTOOLS_CFLAGS

+MfgTools How To:
+
+Here is an example on how to use the MfgTools with Buildroot:
+1- Build your mfgtool image:
+   - Make sure to enable the following Buildroot options:
+BR2_PACKAGE_FREESCALE_IMX=y
+BR2_PACKAGE_IMX_UUC=y
+BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_CPIO=y
+BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_CPIO_GZIP=y
+BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_CPIO_UIMAGE=y
+   - Also modify your kernel configuration to have:
+CONFIG_USB_GADGET=y
+CONFIG_USB_MASS_STORAGE=y
+CONFIG_FSL_UTP=y
+CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK_MINORS=16
+
+2- Go into the output and create the necessary folders:
+$ cd output
+$ mkdir -p "Profiles/Linux/OS Firmware/firmware"
+
+3- Create your XML update script named ucl2.xml:
+   - You can find a sample XML here:
+$ wget https://storage.googleapis.com/boundarydevices.com/ucl2.xml \
+  -O Profiles/Linux/OS\ Firmware/ucl2.xml
+
+4- Copy the mfgtools U-Boot, Kernel and initramfs images created:
+$ cp images/u-boot.imx images/zImage images/imx6q-sabrelite.dtb \
+  images/rootfs.cpio.uboot Profiles/Linux/OS\ Firmware/firmware/
+
+5- Copy the prebuilt binaries to be flashed:
+   - Depends on your ucl2.xml file, the sample doesn't flash anything.
+
+6- Execute the MfgTools client:
+$ ./host/usr/bin/mfgtoolcli -l mmc -s uboot_defconfig=imx \
+  -s dtbname=imx6q-sabrelite.dtb -s initramfs=rootfs.cpio.uboot \
+  -s mmc=1 -p 1
+
+For more information about the tools options, please read the
+"Manufacturing Tool V2 Quick Start Guide.docx" documentation contained in
+every mfgtools package from NXP website[1].
+
+Note: All the above commands require your Linux host user to have permissions
+to access the USB devices. Please make sure to have udev rules that allow the
+user to communicate with the BootROM IDs (Freescale USB recovery) as well as
+the one used for the UTP Linux image (0x066F:0x37FF).
+Using 'sudo' in front of the mfgtoolcli command would also grant you the
+necessary permission but it is *not* recommended.
+
+Also, if your U-Boot environment doesn't include mfgtools bootargs, make sure
+to set the following:
+setenv bootargs "console=${console},${baudrate} g_mass_storage.stall=0 \
+	g_mass_storage.removable=1 g_mass_storage.idVendor=0x066F \
+	g_mass_storage.idProduct=0x37FF g_mass_storage.iSerialNumber=\"\" \
+	g_mass_storage.file=/fat"
