  21. nvmmerge(1) Qualcomm Atheros Open Powerline Toolkit nvmmerge(1)
  22. NAME
  23. nvmmerge - Qualcomm Atheros PLC Firmware Image File Splicer
  24. SYNOPSIS
  25. nvmmerge [options] file [file] [...] [&gt;stdout]
  26. DESCRIPTION
  27. Combine multiple binary image files into a single Qualcomm Atheros binary image file, leaving the original files intact.
  28. Qualcomm Atheros image files consist of a chain of image headers, each followed by an image block. Image blocks can con‐
  29. tain data, applets or programs. Atheros software reads the header chain and decides which images to download and execute
  30. based on information in image headers. Tampering with image headers or images may void some contractual obligations made
  31. by Atheros.
  32. This program is part of the Qualcomm Atheros Powerline Toolkit. See the AMP man page for an overview and installation
  33. instructions.
  34. OPTIONS
  35. -q Suppresses printing of routine messages. This option has no efect.
  36. -v Print input file names on stderr as they are merged.
  37. -?,--help
  38. Print program help summary on stdout. This option takes precedence over other options on the command line.
  39. -!,--version
  40. Print program version information on stdout. This option takes precedence over other options on the command line.
  41. use this option when sending screen dumps to Atheros Technical Support so that they know exactly which version of
  42. the Linux Toolkit you are using.
  43. ARGUMENTS
  44. file The name of a Qualcomm Atheros image file. By convention, these image files have a .nvm file extension but this
  45. program does not enforce that convention. Invalid image files will be rejected causing the output to be incom‐
  46. plete.
  47. EXAMPLES
  48. The following example combines three files, abc-00.nvm, abc-01.nvm and abc-06.nvm into one file abc.nvm. Option -v dis‐
  49. plays the input file names as they are merged. Program output is in binary format and so output should be directed to a
  50. file or pipe and not the console.
  51. # nvmmerge -v abc-00.nvm abc-01.nvm abc-06.nvm &gt; abc.nvm
  52. nvmmerge: abc-00.nvm
  53. nvmmerge: abc-01.nvm
  54. nvmmerge: abc-06.nvm
  55. DISCLAIMER
  56. Atheros image file structure and content is proprietary to Qualcomm Atheros, Ocala FL USA. Consequently, public informa‐
  57. tion is not available. Qualcomm Atheros reserves the right to change file structure or content in future firmware
  58. releases without any obligation to notify or compensate users of this program. This program is reserved for use by Qual‐
  59. comm Atheros Field Engineers. Use of this program may void certain contractual obligations made by Qualcomm Atheros.
