The offset of an entry needs to be adjusted by its skip-at-start value.
This is currently missing when reading entry data. Fix it.
Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
Normally when an entry is created, any entry arguments it has are required
to be provided, so it can actually generate its contents correctly.
However when an existing image is read, Entry objects are created for each
of the entries in the image. This happens as part of the process of
reading the image into binman.
In this case we don't need the entry arguments, since we do not intend to
regenerate the entries, or at least not unless requested. So there is no
sense in reporting an error for missing entry arguments.
Add a new property for the Image to handle this case. Update the error
reporting to be conditional on this property.

Refactor the implementation slightly so that section data is not
rebuilt when it is already available.
We still have GetData() set up to rebuild the section, since we don't
currently track when things change that might affect a section. For
example, if a blob is updated within a section, we must rebuild it.
Tracking that would be possible but is more complex, so it left for
another time.

At present this function adds up the total size of entries to work out the
size of a section's contents. With compression this is no-longer enough.
We may as well bite the bullet and build the section contents instead.
Call _BuildSectionData() to get the (possibly compressed) contents and
GetPaddedData() to get the same but with padding added.
Note that this is inefficient since the section contents is calculated
twice. Future work will improve this.
This affects testPackOverlapMap() since the error is reported with a
different section size now (enough to hold the contents). Update that at
the same time.

This method introduces a separation between packing and checking that is
different for sections. In order to handle compression properly, we need
to be able to deal with a section's size being smaller than the
uncompressed size of its contents. It is easier to make this work if
everything happens in the Pack() method.
The only real user of CheckEntries() is entry_Section and it can call it

When a section is compressed, all entries within it are grouped together
into a compressed block of data. This obscures the start of each
individual child entry.
Avoid reporting bogus 'image-pos' properties in this case, since it is
not possible to access the entry at the location provided. The entire
section must be decompressed first.
CBFS does not support compressing whole sections, only individual files,
so needs no special handling here.

Section contents is not set up when ObtainContents() is called, since
packing often changes the layout of the contents. Ensure that the contents
are correctly recorded by making this function regenerate the section. It
is normally only called by the parent section (when packing) or by the
top-level image code, when writing out the image. So the performance
impact is fairly small.
Now that sections have their contents in their 'data' property, update
testSkipAtStartSectionPad() to check it.
Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
At present padding of sections is inconsistent with other entry types, in
that different pad bytes are used.
When a normal entry is padded by its parent, the parent's pad byte is
used. But for sections, the section's pad byte is used.
Adjust logic to always do this the same way.
Note there is still a special case in entry_Section.GetPaddedData() where
an image is padded with the pad byte of the top-level section. This is
necessary since otherwise there would be no way to set the pad byte of
the image, without adding a top-level section to every image.

Each section is padded up to its size, if the contents are not large

At present we use 'compress' as the property to set the compression of
a 'files' entry. But this conflicts with the same property for entries,
of which Entry_section is a subclass.
Strictly speaking, since Entry_files is in fact a subclass of
Entry_section, the files can be compressed individually but also the
section (that contains all the files) can itself be compressed. With this
change, it is possible to express that.

Other relevant properties (pad-after, offset, size, align, align-size,

A recent change adjusted the symbol calculation to work on x86 but broke
it for Tegra. In fact this is because they have different needs.
On x86 devices the code is linked to a ROM address and the end-at-4gb
property is used for the image. In this case there is no need to add the
base address of the image, since the base address is already built into
the offset and image-pos properties.
On other devices we must add the base address since the offsets start at
zero.
In addition the base address is currently added to the 'offset' and 'size'
values. It should in fact only be added to 'image-pos', since 'offset' is
relative to its parent and 'size' is not actually an address. This code
should have been adjusted when support for 'image-pos' and 'size' was
added, but it was not.
To correct these problems:
- move the code that handles adding the base address to section.py, which
can check the end-at-4gb property and which property
(offset/size/image-pos) is being read
- add the base address only when needed (only for image-pos and not if the
image uses end-at-4gb)
- add a note to the documentation
- add a separate test to cover x86 behaviour

Entries which include a section and need to obtain its contents call
GetData(), as with any other entry. But the current implementation of this
method in entry_Section requires the size of the section to be known. If
it is unknown, an error is produced, since size is None:
TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'NoneType'

entry into an existing bytearray.

At present the Entry constructor sets up the object and then immediately
reads its device-tree node to obtain its properties.
This breaks a convention that constructors should not do any processing.
A consequence is that we must pass all arguments to the constructor and
cannot have the node-reading proceed in a different way unless we pass
flags to that constructor. We already have a 'test' flag in a few cases,
and now need to control whether the 'orig_offset' and 'orig_size'
properties are set or not.
