Replace fip_create with fiptool
fiptool provides a more consistent and intuitive interface compared to the fip_create program. It serves as a better base to build on more features in the future.
fiptool supports various subcommands. Below are the currently supported subcommands:
1) info - List the images contained in a FIP file. 2) create - Create a new FIP file with the given images. 3) update - Update an existing FIP with the given images. 4) unpack - Extract a selected set or all the images from a FIP file. 5) remove - Remove images from a FIP file. This is a new command that was not present in fip_create.
To create a new FIP file, replace "fip_create" with "fiptool create".
To update a FIP file, replace "fip_create" with "fiptool update".
To dump the contents of a FIP file, replace "fip_create --dump" with "fiptool info".
A compatibility script that emulates the basic functionality of fip_create is provided. Existing scripts might or might not work with the compatibility script. Users are strongly encouraged to migrate to fiptool.
