From: Martyn Welch Date: Wed, 9 Oct 2024 13:15:40 +0000 (+0100) Subject: bootstd: Add command to enable setting of bootmeth specific properties X-Git-Url: http://git.dujemihanovic.xyz/posts?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3809fd35a5dbdbd62043ba0a72c3f37f58e69f9d;p=u-boot.git bootstd: Add command to enable setting of bootmeth specific properties We have previously added logic to allow a "fallback" option to be specified in the extlinux configuration. Provide a command that allows us to set this as the preferred default option when booting. Combined with the bootcount functionality, this allows the "altbootcmd" to provide a means of falling back to a previously known good state after a failed update. For example, if "bootcmd" is set to: bootflow scan -lb We would set "altbootcmd" to: bootmeth set extlinux fallback 1; bootflow scan -lb Causing the boot process to boot from the fallback option.
