aespipe: add host variant

2016-02-06T20:27:24+00:00

Having the host version may allow post-image scripts to encrypt the resulting image with aespipe (and decrypt it in the update tool on the target). Signed-off-by: Ariel D'Alessandro [Thomas: rewrap Config.in help text, tweak commit title.] Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

vboot-utils: new package

2015-12-27T11:07:12+00:00

Chromium OS verified boot utilities. Needed for signing kernel images and manipulating bootable partitions on media intended for Chromebooks. Signed-off-by: Alex Suykov Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

gptfdisk: Add host package

2015-12-15T21:33:33+00:00

This tool which is useful for scripts that create flash images with multiple partitions. The host-parted package can do this too, but is missing a number of features that the gptfdisk program has for dealing with GPT. The interactive gdisk and curses based sgdisk aren't built. Just the scriptable tool sgdisk. The target package allows configuring which tools are built, but this seem unnecessarily complex for the host tool. [Thomas: minor reformatting tweaks.] Signed-off-by: Trent Piepho Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

jq: enable host package

2015-10-25T20:36:23+00:00

Allow building jq as host utility for use in post-build scripts. This can be useful to created, edit, merge or even perform syntax checking on JSON files. Signed-off-by: Thomas De Schampheleire Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

dtc: add host build

2015-10-04T18:17:35+00:00

Having a host variant of dtc is needed for example for U-Boot, which uses the Device Tree for a number of platforms. In addition, now that we have a proper host-dtc package, it is no longer needed for the linux package to install the host dtc compiler: users interested in having the host dtc compiler can simply enable this package. A Config.in.host option is added to build host-dtc, because the initial reason why the host DTC built by the kernel was installed in $(HOST_DIR)/usr/bin (commit 707d44d0a28906ebda49584dd5f55985406f0bde from Thomas DS) was: Having dtc as a host tool can be useful for users that have a custom boot scenario where the device tree is not embedded in the kernel. [Thomas: - rework the commit log.] [Peter: keep the (renamed) linux version] Signed-off-by: Peter Seiderer Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

package: add host-faketime

2015-05-13T08:12:17+00:00

For use by packages or post-build/image scripts to fake the current time for obnoxious programs that insists on adding a timestamp. Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard Reviewed-by: Thomas Petazzoni

imx-usb-loader: new host package

2015-05-02T07:47:04+00:00

This host package allows to build tools to download and execute code on Freescale i.MX5/i.MX6 and Vybrid SoCs through the Serial Download Protocol.

checkpolicy: new package

2015-01-08T21:58:52+00:00

[Thomas: - Indicate in the Config.in help text that this policy compiler is SELinux related. - Rewrap Config.in help text and remove trailing white space. - Add a comment in the .mk file to indicate why we're passing DESTDIR= at build time.] Signed-off-by: Matthew Weber Signed-off-by: Clayton Shotwell Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

qemu: add to host utilities menu

2014-12-23T11:09:17+00:00

This allows qemu-user to be selected by the user. One use case for this is to call qemu-user from post build scripts to run regression tests against the build. Signed-off-by: Frank Hunleth Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

package/mke2img: new package

2014-12-07T21:06:44+00:00

Currently, we are using a shell script called genext2fs, that impersonates the real genext2fs. But that script does much more than just call genextfs: it also calls tune2fs and e2fsck. Because it impersonates genext2fs, we can not easily add new options, and are constrained by the genext2fs options. But it turns out that, of all the options supported by the real genext2fs, we only really care for a subset, namely: - number of blocks - number of inodes - percentage of blocks reeserved to root - the root directory which to generate the image from So, we introduce a new host package, mke2img, that is intended to eventually replace genext2fs.sh. This new script is highly modeled from the existing genext2fs.sh, but was slightly refreshed, and a new, supposedly sane set of options has been choosen for the features we need (see above), and some new options were added, too, rather than relying on the arguments order or environment variables: -b number of blocks in the filesystem -i number of inodes in the filesystem -r percentage of reserved blocks * -d directory containing the root of the filesystem * -o output image file -G extfs generation: 2, 3, or 4 (default: 2) -R ext2 revision: 0 or 1 (default 1) -l filesystem label -u filesystem UUID; if not specified, a random one is used * Mandatory options Since the upstream e2fsprogs are expected to release a new mke2fs that will be able to generate a filesystem image from a directory, we then will be able to replace all the logic in mke2img, to use mke2fs instead of the (relatively fragile) combination of the three tools we currently use. An entry is added for it in the "Host utilities" menu, so it can be selected for use by post-{build,image} scripts. The ext2 filesystem selection is changed to select that now.
