Update to latest version of
ftditool(version 0.4.0). This introduces a newbootstrap-elfcommand, which comes with substantial speedups for loading sparse ELF files (e.g OpenSBI + a payload).The FPGA runner would previously secretly depend on both the ELF file (for the entrypoint) and an
objcopy'd binary with the same name and.binsuffix. With this command only the ELF file is required, which makes this more flexible.See also: lowRISC/ftditool#12, lowRISC/ftditool#15
