Open Source Software TODO list

• ss: test if the output file in the form /dev/sdXY is a block device before writing it: https://github.com/manoj23/ee
• u-boot: generate a u-boot.itb image instead of overwriting u-boot.img
• meta-swupdate: make use a packageconfig + configuration fragment
• swupdate: even when hardware revision check is disabled HW_COMPATIBILITY, it says OK when it shouldn't (v2016.10.0)
  • If CONFIG_HW_COMPATIBILITY is disabled, the option -H is not available and the file /etc/hwrevision is not checked (checked on v2016.10, 9224371491b9cd38b00a5fcde2e1e2845a8443ed after 2017.01) tested with -d and -i
  • But in master if the HW compatibility check fails, the downloader does not exit -> Fix that bug
  • Disable HW_COMPATIBILITY;
    • without file: run an update; it will say OK in every case but no update has been applied
    • with the /etc/hwrevision: it will say OK but the update will be applied
• swupdate: add an argument to specify the cacert to be passed to curl
• swupdate: -c/check argument expects the -e argument but it should not
• Yocto/Poky: factorize the configuration fragment feature
  • def get_cfg_files(d)
    • return filter(lambda x: x.endsWith('.cfg'), src_patches(d, True))
• libkcapi: write a Yocto recipe
  • The libkcapi is Yocto-ready https://github.com/smuellerDD/libkcapi/commit/a039f8a5adca57dc69a19d7361600c2f410e0c26
• create a dockerfile that interfaces with repo and Yocto
• U-Boot: socfpga_devkit node pour gpio0 and gpio2 with Sid sign-off
• U-Boot: fit_check_sign should be fixed: if the .itb has been generated with -E, the signature checking will fail. Fix it!
