Tool to flash image files to block devices using the block map
bmaptool is a generic tool for creating the block map (bmap)
for a file, and copying files using the block map. The idea is
that large file containing unused blocks, like raw system
image files, can be copied or flashed a lot faster with
bmaptool than with traditional tools like "dd" or "cp".
Relevant optional dependencies:
- Busybox compiled with CONFIG_BZIP2, or BR2_PACKAGE_BZIP2,
to support bz2 compressed images
- BR2_PACKAGE_PIGZ for optimized gzip decompression
- Busybox compiled with CONFIG_LZOP, or BR2_PACKAGE_LZOP, to
support lzo compressed images.
- BR2_PACKAGE_ZIP to support zip compressed images
- BR2_PACKAGE_LZ4 to support lz4 compressed images
- BR2_PACKAGE_ZSTD to support zstd compressed images
- Busybox compiled CONFIG_FEATURE_SEAMLESS_* or
BR2_PACKAGE_TAR to support tar compressed images
- BR2_PACKAGE_OPENSSH to retrieve images over SSH.
- BR2_PACKAGE_SSHPASS to retrieve images over SSH if
password authentication is used.
Image signature verification is not supported as
python-gpgme is not available. Optimized bzip2 decompression
is not supported as pbzip2 is not available.
