High Assurance Boot (HAB) for i.MX6 CPUs
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To enable the authenticated or encrypted boot mode of U-Boot, it is
|
|
|
|
required to set the proper configuration for the target board. This
|
|
|
|
is done by adding the following configuration in in the proper config
|
|
|
|
file (e.g. include/configs/mx6qarm2.h)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#define CONFIG_SECURE_BOOT
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition, the U-Boot image to be programmed into the
|
|
|
|
boot media needs to be properly constructed, i.e. it must contain a
|
|
|
|
proper Command Sequence File (CSF).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Initial Vector Table contains a pointer to the CSF. Please see
|
|
|
|
doc/README.imximage for how to prepare u-boot.imx.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The CSF itself is being generated by Freescale HAB tools.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mkimage will output additional information about "HAB Blocks"
|
|
|
|
which can be used in the Freescale tooling to authenticate U-Boot
|
|
|
|
(entries in the CSF file).

CONFIG_SECURE_BOOT currently enables only an additional command
|
|
|
|
'hab_status' in U-Boot to retrieve the HAB status and events. This
|
|
|
|
can be useful while developing and testing HAB.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Commands to generate a signed U-Boot using Freescale HAB tools:
|
|
|
|
cst --o U-Boot_CSF.bin < U-Boot.CSF
|
|
|
|
objcopy -I binary -O binary --pad-to 0x2000 --gap-fill=0x00 \
|
|
|
|
U-Boot_CSF.bin U-Boot_CSF_pad.bin
|
|
|
|
cat u-boot.imx U-Boot_CSF_pad.bin > u-boot-signed.imx
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: U-Boot_CSF.bin needs to be padded to the value specified in
|
|
|
|
the imximage.cfg file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setup U-Boot Image for Encrypted Boot
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
An authenticated U-Boot image is used as starting point for
|
|
|
|
Encrypted Boot. The image is encrypted by Freescale's Code
|
|
|
|
Signing Tool (CST). The CST replaces only the image data of
|
|
|
|
u-boot.imx with the encrypted data. The Initial Vector Table,
|
|
|
|
DCD, and Boot data, remains in plaintext.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The image data is encrypted with a Encryption Key (DEK).
|
|
|
|
Therefore, this key is needed to decrypt the data during the
|
|
|
|
booting process. The DEK is protected by wrapping it in a Blob,
|
|
|
|
which needs to be appended to the U-Boot image and specified in
|
|
|
|
the CSF file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The DEK blob is generated by an authenticated U-Boot image with
|
|
|
|
the dek_blob cmd enabled. The image used for DEK blob generation
|
|
|
|
needs to have the following configurations enabled:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_SECURE_BOOT
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SEC_COMPAT 4 /* HAB version */
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_FSL_CAAM
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_CMD_DEKBLOB
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_SYS_FSL_SEC_LE
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: The encrypted boot feature is only supported by HABv4 or
|
|
|
|
greater.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The dek_blob command then can be used to generate the DEK blob of
|
|
|
|
a DEK previously loaded in memory. The command is used as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
dek_blob <DEK address> <Output Address> <Key Size in Bits>
|
|
|
|
example: dek_blob 0x10800000 0x10801000 192
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The resulting DEK blob then is used to construct the encrypted
|
|
|
|
U-Boot image. Note that the blob needs to be transferred back
|
|
|
|
to the host.Then the following commands are used to construct
|
|
|
|
the final image.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
objcopy -I binary -O binary --pad-to 0x2000 --gap-fill=0x00 \
|
|
|
|
U-Boot_CSF.bin U-Boot_CSF_pad.bin
|
|
|
|
cat u-boot.imx U-Boot_CSF_pad.bin > u-boot-signed.imx
|
|
|
|
objcopy -I binary -O binary --pad-to <blob_dst> --gap-fill=0x00 \
|
|
|
|
u-boot-signed.imx u-boot-signed-pad.bin
|
|
|
|
cat u-boot-signed-pad.imx DEK_blob.bin > u-boot-encrypted.imx
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: u-boot-signed.bin needs to be padded to the value
|
|
|
|
equivalent to the address in which the DEK blob is specified
|
|
|
|
in the CSF.
