The dumpimage is able to extract components contained in a FIT image:
$ ./dumpimage -T flat_dt -i CONTAINER.ITB -p INDEX FILE
The CONTAINER.ITB is a regular FIT container file. The INDEX is the poisition
of the sub-image to be retrieved, and FILE is the file (path+name) to save the
extracted sub-image.
For example, given the following kernel.its to build a kernel.itb:
/dts-v1/;
/ {
...
images {
kernel@1 {
description = "Kernel 2.6.32-34";
data = /incbin/("/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-34-generic");
type = "kernel";
arch = "ppc";
os = "linux";
compression = "gzip";
load = <00000000>;
entry = <00000000>;
hash@1 {
algo = "md5";
};
};
...
};
...
};
The dumpimage can extract the 'kernel@1' node through the following command:
$ ./dumpimage -T flat_dt -i kernel.itb -p 0 kernel
Extracted:
Image 0 (kernel@1)
Description: Kernel 2.6.32-34
Created: Wed Oct 22 15:50:26 2014
Type: Kernel Image
Compression: gzip compressed
Data Size: 4040128 Bytes = 3945.44 kB = 3.85 MB
Architecture: PowerPC
OS: Linux
Load Address: 0x00000000
Entry Point: 0x00000000
Hash algo: md5
Hash value: 22352ad39bdc03e2e50f9cc28c1c3652
Which results in the file 'kernel' being exactly the same as '/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-34-generic'.

Some image types, like "KeyStone GP", do not have magic numbers to
distinguish them from other image types. Thus, the automatic image
type discovery does not work correctly.
This patch also fix some integer type mismatches.
