In additional to the raw FCB fields, show some useful values calculated
from them. E.g., display the size of the bootloader image in kB based
on the configured NAND page size and number of pages in the bootloader
image. Example (all values in "()" are added):

When updating the FCB, save the location and size of the Barebox images
into parameters on the NAND device. Since the location and padding is
calculated based on net NAND partition size, with an unknown number of
bad blocks, these values aren't known beforehard. Saving them will
allow extracting or checksumming the Barebox image in NAND.
For example:
sha256sum /dev/nand0.barebox ${nand0.barebox.firmware1_addr}+${nand0.barebox.firmware1_size}
memcpy -s /dev/nand0.barebox -d /mnt/mmc0.0/imagedump ${nand0.barebox.firmware2_addr} 0 ${nand0.barebox.firmware2_size}
Find sum of Barebox image file with NUL padding to NAND page size (4kB
here) in Linux:
dd if=barebox-myboard.img ibs=4k conv=sync | sha256sum

As you are adding a fcb utility command anyway in the next patch, maybe
it would be more convenient for the user to add a firmware extraction
option there instead of adding these device parameters.

Add new "fcb" command. It can save a decoded copy of the FCB to a file,
do a hexdump of the decoded FCB, or display the FCB fields. Or simply
read and validate the FCB.
The FCB uses a different ECC system that the rest of flash and there is
no easy way to decode it in Barebox or Linux. The code already here
does it.
This will also set the nand0.barebox device parameters with the location
of the bootloader images as read from the FCB.

Not sure if we need to control this command in such a fine grained way.
For me just extracting all possible FCBs including the firmware images,
maybe printing consistency information would be enough. That's just a
personal opinion though, feel free to override it.

Originally I was having issues creating correct FCBs, mostly due to
kobs-ng (I wonder how hard it would be to port barebox_update to
Linux?) and wanted to extract factory FCB and kobs-ng generated FCB.
But copying data from Barebox to Linux and looking at hexdumps was
very tedious. Really, one wants to see fields of FCB decoded and
Barebox already had code that did this.
So the -i flag that prints out FCB fields and -o to save a copy were
what I wrote originally as debug aid, with -i the most useful to me.
I don't actually want to extract firmware images. It was the FCB that
was the issue. I didn't think it would be useful enough to other
people to bother sending it to the list.
But then later there was a thread from Yunas at Phytec about the
difficulty of doing a flash crc check on NAND when one does not know
where data will be due to possible bad blocks. Extracting this
information from the FCB seemed like the correct way to do it and I
realized it would be easy to add into the command I had written. So
that is why this feature is there. And this was evidence that this
would be useful to someone besides myself.
I added hexdump because it seemed like someone might like it and it
was one line. I could drop this part.
Extracting all possible FCBs has issues. Number and location of FCBs
varies. Pin strapping and possibly OTP memory fuses control what the
boot ROM does. However, the boot ROM's search, what is actually in
flash, and what kobs-ng wants to write, can all be different. I did
write this debug aid for a real problem!
If it did just write dump everything, then how would it work? Some
details are not clear to me.
Where does the data go? Assume /tmp? Or argument to supply directory name?
It will need multiple files. How to name? Arguments for each
filename? Seems too many arguments. Or have a fixed filename
pattern? FCB1, FCB2, firmware1.img, firmware2.img, etc. Not really a
huge fan of hardcoded filenames.
What happens if the FCBs are not where Barebox thinks they are? This
really does happen.
What if all the FCBs do not agree on the location/size of the firmware images?
Is it possible extra space used to dump firmware copies into /tmp,
then crc the copies matters vs doing it in place from flash?
What if someone wants to script something with firmware images other
than a checksum? E.g., they want to erase firmware1 to test that
fallback to firmware2 works. Or want to know how large the firmware
is. I do not know of a way to get the size of a file in hush.

Either way would be fine with me. I would use the current directory for
writing files with hardcoded filenames.

I would write out all found FCBs by default. Additionally an option to
pass the block number of which FCB should be used like you already did
it.
Generally I think when by default all possible information is extracted
including the FCB/Firmware images, maybe sha256sums of the firmware
imags. That way we could easily add more information if we get new
ideas which infos might be useful additionally. With dedicated options
for each and every piece of information it will become difficult to
parse and hard to track which option is compatible/useful with which
other option. In the end this mostly useful for debugging anyway. I
don't think we should extend this command to do anything useful in a
production case.
