base-uboot: support gzip'd images
Enhancement request: for the base-uboot device-type.
Mainline u-boot can support gunzip'ing images before booting them.
For example, on arm64 the kernel Image
file can be large, so it's convenient to pass an Image.gz
to u-boot. Before doing a booti
, you can unzip
the file and then boot it.
To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
