Subject: [PATCH 04/10] filetype: introduce filetype_fit
Date: Mon, 5 Jan 2026 09:03:36 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260105080653.3240497-5-a.fatoum@barebox.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260105080653.3240497-1-a.fatoum@barebox.org>
It's not possible to differentiate a flattened device tree from a FIT
image without parsing it for top-level /images and /configurations node.
We thus have some checks that check for filetype_oftree instead of
filetype_fit, which is confusing. Let's introduce filetype_fit and
handle it at the boot layer to allow for slightly more readable code.
This will pay off some more when we start making use of it in a later
commit.
