Here is - as promised [1] - a patch set whose aim is to clean up the
firmware-imx package. I believe this may help installing EPDC fw, SDMA FW
and so on based on the actual need from each platform and respond to [2].

BR,
Stephane.

Some SoC need a HDMI FW for their bootloader, some other require EPDC,
SDMA and/or VPU.
Instead of trying to "guess" what firmware images need to be installed
in firmware-imx.mk, let the Config framework do the job and allow each
SoC to actually 'select' what firmware they need.

Note that this patch should also help introducing an eventual DP FW, as
Gary mentioned in a separate thread [1].

Should we name this after the VPU IP name instead? Something like this:

BR2_PACKAGE_FREESCALE_IMX_NEED_VPU_FW_CODA

> +config BR2_PACKAGE_FREESCALE_IMX_NEED_VPU_FW_IMX8_IMX8X

BR2_PACKAGE_FREESCALE_IMX_NEED_VPU_FW_MALONE

If the VPU code names are pretty commonly known, then yes, that looks
better, indeed.

Hello,

Thanks for doing this work! It's definitely bringing some good sanity
into this firmware-imx mess! See below some comments.

It would be nicer to use "NEEDS" instead of "NEED". That would require
a preparation patch that renames BR2_PACKAGE_FREESCALE_IMX_NEED_DDR_FW
to BR2_PACKAGE_FREESCALE_IMX_NEEDS_DDR_FW.

However, I am wondering if package/freescale-imx/Config.in is the right
place for all this logic. After all, this is only related to the
firmware-imx package.

Shouldn't we instead move that to
package/freescale-imx/firmware-imx/Config.in, with the following form:

config BR2_PACKAGE_FREESCALE_IMX_NEEDS_DDR_FW
	bool
	default y if BR2_PACKAGE_FREESCALE_IMX_PLATFORM_IMX8M
	default y if BR2_PACKAGE_FREESCALE_IMX_PLATFORM_IMX8MM
	default y if BR2_PACKAGE_FREESCALE_IMX_PLATFORM_IMX8MN

and ditto the other options ? Here as well, it would require a
preparation patch to take care of the NEEDS_DDR_FW case, and then your
patch that handles all other FW files.

Best regards,

Thomas

I'd like to have Yann's and/or Gary's feedback on this. I'm using 'select' based on this comment:
"
  As Yann mentioned on IRC:
  "Usually, when we introduce such option, it does not 'default y' based
  on some other options. Instead, the other options 'select' it."
"

Stephane, All,

On 2020-06-25 06:33 +0000, Stephane Viau (OSS) spake thusly:

True, that's what I said. That was based on the assumption that the
options would be in package/freescale-imx/Config.in.

But now, seeing the reasonning by Thomas, I agree with him: those are
better suited to live in package/freescale-imx/firmware-imx/Config.in/

And thus it is less clean that the variant selection in the generic
choice would have to catter with options specific to a package.

Hence, the "default y if ..." is indeed better.

Sorry I did not have that insight to begin with...

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.

No worries ; thank you all for your comments!
Will send out a v2 soon..

BTW, I'm also thinking of embedding the 'install path' fix proposed by Sebastien here:

If you insert a prompt statement, then that allows to NOT include the
firmware if explicitely turned off.
I'm currently working on an imx8 platform without VPU needs.
I don't like shipping firmware that I don't need.

Hi Stephane,

Sorry for the late reply, apart for the comments already made by otherse
I have one suggestion below.

So here you would copy all VPU FW for "LEGACY" but the one for
IMX8/IMX8X?
I'd rather have a generic IMX_NEED_VPU_FW for all platforms that require
a VPU FW and then in firmware-imx.mk only copy the files relevant to the
platform selected (imx35,51,6,8x), what do you think?

Regards,
Gary

This whole section has been reworked in v2 ; 
can you please review and let me know if you still want some improvement there?

The newly introduced BR2_PACKAGE_FREESCALE_IMX_NEED_xxx_FW symbols shall
be used in lieue of the SoC type when installing images or binaries on
target.

These new symbols let us define FIRMWARE_IMX_INSTALL_IMAGES_CMDS and
FIRMWARE_IMX_INSTALL_TARGET_CMDS based on platform needs rather than
SoC type.

This comment is not needed.

I think it would be good to group that together with the
IMX_INSTALL_TARGET_CMDS definition, towards the end of the file.

Comment not really useful.

This option doesn't exist in your Config.in.

Are you sure this option exists ?

St?phane, All,

On 2020-06-24 17:23 +0200, Stephane Viau spake thusly:

On principle, I like what you've proposed in this series. I haven't
looked the details, though, and I will let the imx experts chime-in to
validate the conditions udner which each firmware files are installed.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
