* wic: allow to configure overhead factor per partitionAlexandre Belloni2015-02-141-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | Introduce a new option --overhead-factor to replace IMAGE_OVERHEAD_FACTOR.

* wic: allow to configure extra space per partitionAlexandre Belloni2015-02-141-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce a new option --extra-space instead of using IMAGE_EXTRA_SPACE. This is useful for boot partitions where the extra space is often useless or for huge partition where 10MiB may not be enough.

* wic: allow creation of partitions not in tableAlexandre Belloni2015-02-141-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For some architectures it is necessary to reserve space on disk without it being present in the partition table. For example, u-boot on i.mx is placed at an offset of 1kB on the sdcard. While it would be possible to create a partition at that offset and place u-boot there, it would then be necessary to update the default u-boot environment to use partition 2 on the mmc instead of partition 1.

* wic: use kB for the partitions sizeAlexandre Belloni2015-02-081-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use kB instead of MB for the partition size to get a better granularity. This is needed on some SoC (i.mx, omap) where it is necessary to create partitions as small as 64kB. Keep the backward compatibility by assuming MB when no unit is provided.

* wic: Remove special-case bootimg_dirTom Zanussi2014-10-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The first iterations of wic very shortsightedly catered to two specific use-cases and added special-purpose params for those cases so that they could be directly given their corresponding boot artifacts. (hdddir and staging_data_dir). As more use-cases are added, it becomes rather obvious that such a scheme doens't scale, and additionally causes confusion for plugin writers. This removes those special cases and states explicitly in the help text that plugins are responsible for locating their own boot artifacts.

| | | | | | | | | | The --debug option is missing from the wic help text; this adds it and at the same time rearranges the usage into a more logical arrangement.

* wic: Initial code for wic (OpenEmbedded Image Creator)Tom Zanussi2013-10-011-0/+311
Initial implementation of the 'wic' command. The 'wic' command generates partitioned images from existing OpenEmbedded build artifacts. Image generation is driven by partitioning commands contained in an 'Openembedded kickstart' (.wks) file specified either directly on the command-line or as one of a selection of canned .wks files (see 'wic list images'). When applied to a given set of build artifacts, the result is an image or set of images that can be directly written onto media and used on a particular system. 'wic' is based loosely on the 'mic' (Meego Image Creator) framework, but heavily modified to make direct use of OpenEmbedded build artifacts instead of package installation and configuration, things already incorporated int the OE artifacts. The name 'wic' comes from 'oeic' with the 'oe' diphthong promoted to the letter 'w', because 'oeic' is impossible to remember or pronounce. This covers the mechanics of invoking and providing help for the command and sub-commands; it contains hooks for future commits to connect with the actual functionality, once implemented. Help is integrated into the 'wic' command - see that for details on usage.
