Tools to help hacking Allwinner A10 (aka sun4i) based devices and possibly it's successors, that's why the 'x' in the package name.
fexc:
.fex
file (de)compiler
Usage: ./fexc [-vq] [-I <infmt>] [-O <outfmt>] [<input> [<output>]]
infmt: fex, bin (default:fex)
outfmt: fex, bin (default:bin)
bin2fex:
compatibility shortcut to call fexc
to decompile an script.bin
blob back into .fex
format used by allwinner's SDK to configure
the boards.
fex2bin:
compatiblity shortcut to call fexc
to compile a .fex
file into
the binary form used by the sun4i kernel.
fel: script interface for talking to the FEL USB handler built in to th CPU. You activate FEL mode by pushing the usboot/recovery button at poweron. See http://linux-sunxi.org/FEL/USBBoot for a detailed usage guide.
fel-gpio: Simple wrapper around fel-pio and fel to allos GPIO manipulations via FEL
fel-sdboot: ARM native sdcard bootloader forcing the device into FEL mode
fel-pio: ARM native helper for fel-gpio
pio: Manipulate PIO register dumps
nand-part: Tool for manipulating Allwinner NAND partition tables
jtag-loop.sunxi: ARM native boot helper to force the SD port into JTAG and then stop, to ease debugging of bootloaders.
bootinfo: Dump information from Allwinner boot files (boot0/boot1) --type=sd include SD boot info --type=nand include NAND boot info (not implemented)
phoenix_info: gives information about a phoenix image created by the phoenixcard utility and optionally extracts the embedded boot code & firmware file from their hidden partitions.
meminfo: Tool for reading DRAM settings from registers. Compiled as a static binary for use on android and other OSes. To build this, get a toolchain, and run: make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- meminfo
