Summary
This PR intends to refactor the generation of the QEMU-compatible binary image for ESP32 by using the
merge_bin
builtin function fromesptool.py
.The initial motivation for this is the need to provide a different
offset
for the partition table binary, which the currentmk_qemu_img.sh
script does not support.The added bonus is that this new implementation relies on
esptool.py
, resulting in a cleaner implementation.Impact
Only for ESP32-based defconfigs executing on QEMU.
Testing
Validated with
esp32-devkitc:nsh
andesp32-devkic:spiflash
examples on QEMU.
