So I am not building u-boot manually - it just happens when I bitbake.
Referring to the NXP Yocto User's Guide, per section 5.5: U-Boot Configuration, I modified the local.conf file as stated to do so:
$echo "UBOOT_CONFIG = \"fspi\"" >> conf/local.conf
...when I run this at the terminal being currently situated in the root build directory.
I then clean the "imx-image-core" via:
bitbake -c clean imx-image-core
...and then run a bitbake to build the image again.
What do I look at to verify that I am getting an FSPI image that I can simply flash pound for pound into the QSPI via some external means. And by external means, it is a QSPI device on its own board flashed with a proprietary interface, hence why I want to load EVERYTHING - boot and kernel - into this QSPI that once it interfaces with the i.MX8, I can boot the thing up.
Section 5.5 means something, right? Why can't this work for me?
I generate 2 main images - a wic and an sdcard. Neither of these after doing what the manual suggests give me the signature data that should be at address 0x400 (FCFB...). So if I do the suggested operations per the YUG section 5.5, where is the FSPI image located? What is the name of the file I'm looking for?
EDIT: Working with the i.MX8QXPMEK development board FYI
