thorpej | branches: 1.1.2; Add installboot(8) support for evbarm (and, in the future, other evb*) boards that use u-boot. A known board database lists boards and their respective u-boot packages. u-boot packages are discovered at run-time (in /usr/pkg/share/u-boot, by default). These packages contain board database overlays that describe u-boot installation procedure that's specific for that board.
Support this as a native tool and as a host tool. The native tool will attempt to determine the running board type using OpenFirmware calls. Host tool and native tool alike may also specify a board type directly using the "-o board=xxx option" or have installboot(8) determine the board type from a device tree blob using "-o dtb=/path/to/board.dtb". A "-o media=xxx" option is provided for boards that have different u-boot binaries and/or installation procedures for different media types (e.g. SDMMC, eMMC, or USB).
This is trivial to extend to other evb* platforms that use u-boot, even if they don't use FDT for autoconfiguration.
