Thanks, and in that case, I would like to introduce BOOTCONFIG_ALINE_BITS and BOOTCONFIG_ALINE_MASK so that we make sure the alignment is power of two.

OK.

Hmm, good point. I expected that the bootconfig command will be used natively. Hmm, there are 2 options.
- Add endian option to the bootconfig (-le/-be) for cross build. - Update the footer format to use "ascii" size and checksum.
To generalize the format, latter one is better. But it also involves the kernel side update too.
Thank you,
