.Li riscv   Ns \||\| Ns
.Li sh
.Xc Pc
Defines the architecture.
This is required for
.Ql uimg
format images.
.
.It Fl a Ar address
Sets the image load address.
This is an integer between 0 and
.Dv UINT32_MAX .
This is required for all
.Ql uimg
image types except for
.Li script , ramdisk ,
and
.Li kernel_noload .
.
.It Fl C Po Xo
.Li bz2  Ns \||\| Ns
.Li gz   Ns \||\| Ns
.Li lzma Ns \||\| Ns
.Li lzo  Ns \||\| Ns
.Li none
.Xc Pc
Defines the compression.
The default is
.Ql none .
.
.It Fl E Ar address
Define the entry point.
This is an integer between 0 and
.Dv UINT32_MAX .
This option is the same as
.Fl e
but it inverts the bytes to convert the 32 bit integer
from little to big endian (or vice versa).
If
.Fl E
or
.Fl e
are not set, the entry point defaults to the
image load address
.Pq Fl a .
.
.It Fl e Ar address
Define the entry point.
This is an integer between 0 and
.Dv UINT32_MAX .
If
.Fl E
or
.Fl e
are not set, the entry point defaults to the
image load address
.Pq Fl a .
.
.It Fl f Po Xo
.Li arm64 Ns \||\| Ns
.Li uimg
.Xc Pc
Defines the output image format type.
The default is
.Ql uimg .
.
.It Fl h
Display the usage and exit.
.
.It Fl m Ar magic
Set the magic used for
.Ql uimg
format images.
This is an integer between 0 and
.Dv UINT32_MAX .
The default is
.Ql 0x27051956 .
.
.It Fl n Ar name
Defines the image name.
This is required.

.Li linux   Ns \||\| Ns
.Li netbsd  Ns \||\| Ns
.Li openbsd
.Xc Pc
Defines the operating system type.
The default OS name is
.Ql netbsd .
.
.It Fl T Po Xo
.Li fs            Ns \||\| Ns

.Li kernel_noload Ns \||\| Ns
.Li ramdisk       Ns \||\| Ns
.Li script        Ns \||\| Ns
.Li standalone
.Xc Pc
Defines the image type.
This is required for
.Ql uimg
format images.
.
.It Fl t Ar epoch
Use given epoch timestamp as image creation time.
.Pq This is only used for legacy U-Boot images.
.
.It Fl u
Update the header in an existing file instead of creating a new one.
.
.El
.Pp
The required
.Ar source
argument is the filename of the kernel that is read.
The required
.Ar destination
argument is the filename of the image file that is created.
.\"
.Sh EXIT STATUS
.Nm
returns 1 on failure to read the kernel,
generate a header, or create the image.
.\"
.Sh EXAMPLES
Before the image is written, the header is displayed to standard out;
for example:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
