Boot Image Format Tool
The Intel® Arria® 10 SoC boot ROM firmware supports up to four boot loader images in flash or FPGA memory, as described in the Intel® Arria® 10 SoC Boot User Guide. When you create a secure boot loader, you must perform an extra step to combine multiple boot loader image files into a single image file.
The boot image format tool formats the boot loader image after it is built. You invoke this tool from the Linux* terminal as follows:
$cat <input_image> <input_image> <input_image> <input_image> >\
<output_image>
cat u-boot_w_dtb-signed-256KB.abin u-boot_w_dtb-signed-256KB.abin\
u-boot_w_dtb-signed-256KB.abin\
u-boot_w_dtb-signed-256KB.abin > u-boot_w_dtb-signed-x4.abin
The input files are .bin or .abin files that are typically generated by the boot loader generator. The output file is also a .bin or .abin file.
