Move HBI to end of pnor layout and increase HBI size to 25 MB for Axone layout #127

Closed crgeddes closed 5 years ago

crgeddes commented 5 years ago

We were hitting size constraints again with the HBI section of pnor. To get around this we will move HBI to the end and increase the size by 8+ MB, basically filling rest of empty pnor space. Additionally this commit moves the EECACHE section earlier in the pnor section to avoid having to move adjust as much.

If you'd prefer -- We can leverage the new functionality from: 845fb44 - Megan - 2019-08-27 - Allow defining a partition with automatic starting offset (https://github.com/open-power/op-build/pull/3105). In which case we could remove the offsets and simply just increase the size. It'd automatically figure out the new offsets.

Decided to leave the offsets in until Megan's changes go through regression a bit and we are sure we are getting all the debug data we need.
