- Subject: [ECOS] RedBoot fis_create defaults
I've been comparing my version of RedBoot to a recent version
that came with an Intel XScale eval board. One of the changes
I made in my version is that when you do an "fis create" it
will default to using the address/length from the last "load"
command. That allows one to do someting like this:
load -h 1.2.3.4 foobar.srec
fis create foobar
While it may not be much of a problem to enter the base address
and size when commands are entered interactively, it's a pain
if you're trying to automate the process via a script.
It appears that in the current verion of RedBoot the "fis
create foobar" command will default to using values of an
existing file name "foobar".
Would there be interest in a patch that used the address/size
of the last loaded file in the case where the file does not
already exist?
