Hi Roger, Alper,
Thank you for the help!

Hi!
U-Boot build for J721E with binman enabled on the latest tip of the
master branch throws an error when I try to use u-boot-spl-nodtb entry
in my dtsi.
What I'm trying to do is, to show I've made a small example
(https://github.com/nehamalcom/u-boot/commit/f53dc83944f7774008afbb24fff42904862e9efe)
that is:
{
foo {
filename = "foo.bin";
u-boot-spl-nodtb {
};
};
};
which throws the error
(https://gist.github.com/nehamalcom/4d855db7e4d5bd03aa29099b0e915e53):
binman: Section '/binman/foo': Symbol '_binman_u_boot_any_prop_image_pos'
in entry '/binman/foo/u-boot-spl-nodtb': Entry 'u-boot-any' not
found in list (u-boot-spl-nodtb,main-section)
This can be traced to the WriteSymbols() in etype/u_boot_spl_nodtb.py.
On commenting out this function since it's not necessary in our
use-case, the build was successful
(https://github.com/nehamalcom/u-boot/commit/5666721860e1d2f759440a00c4aee8b6e89b54b3)
Why is binman not picking up on the "any" and choosing u-boot-spl-nodtb
from the list?
Binman is trying to embed into the SPL the position/size of U-Boot (its
next phase), but there's no U-Boot proper entry in the same binman
image, so it can't. Try disabling CONFIG_SPL_BINMAN_UBOOT_SYMBOLS to
stop writing these symbols since you said you don't need them, see
[1][2] merged since v2022.04 or so.
You can try putting everything into a monolithic binman image, but that
proved difficult to do for i.MX8M, so I added that config and disabled
it there. Maybe it should be disabled by default.

Yes disabling the CONFIG_SPL_BINMAN_UBOOT_SYMBOLS worked, thank you for
explaining what it was trying to do. Yes, if the use-case is lower, I
think it can be 'n' by default.
You might need this patch?
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/patch/20221021002320.1169603-5-...@chromium.org/
Even after applying this patch, the entry is not working for me.
Probably because that patch doesn't deal with CONFIG_SPL case, only CONFIG_TPL
and CONFIG_VPL?
Can you please try to do the same for CONFIG_SPL?
The "u-boot-any" ones are for SPL, and implicitly #ifdef CONFIG_SPL.
Those #ifdefs are a bit underspecified, but 'work' in the sense that for
any phase its next phase is declared.
Okay, got it.
e.g.
#ifdef CONFIG_SPL
binman_sym_declare(ulong, u_boot_spl, image_pos);
binman_sym_declare(ulong, u_boot_spl, size);
#endif
