1. HABv4 secure boot process
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
This document is an addendum of mx6_mx7_secure_boot.txt guide describing a
|
|
step-by-step procedure on how to sign and securely boot an U-Boot image for
|
|
SPL targets.
|
|
|
|
Details about HAB can be found in the application note AN4581[1] and in the
|
|
introduction_habv4.txt document.
|
|
|
|
1.1 Building a SPL target supporting secure boot
|
|
-------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The U-Boot provides Second Program Loader (SPL) support which generates two
|
|
final images, SPL and U-Boot proper. The HABv4 can be used to authenticate
|
|
both binaries.
|
|
|
|
Out of reset the ROM code authenticates the SPL which is responsible for
|
|
initializing essential features such as DDR, UART, PMIC and clock
|
|
enablement. Once the DDR is available, the SPL code loads the U-Boot proper
|
|
image to its specific execution address and call the HAB APIs to extend the
|
|
root of trust.
|
|
|
|
The U-Boot provides support to secure boot configuration and also provide
|
|
access to the HAB APIs exposed by the ROM vector table, the support is
|
|
enabled by selecting the CONFIG_SECURE_BOOT option.
|
|
|
|
When built with this configuration the U-Boot correctly pads the final SPL
|
|
image by aligning to the next 0xC00 address, so the CSF signature data
|
|
generated by CST can be concatenated to the image.
|
|
|
|
The U-Boot also append an Image Vector Table (IVT) in the final U-Boot proper
|
|
binary (u-boot-ivt.img) so it can be used by HAB API in a post ROM stage.
|
|
|
|

|
1.2 Enabling the secure boot support
|
|
-------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The first step is to generate an U-Boot image supporting the HAB features
|
|
mentioned above, this can be achieved by adding CONFIG_SECURE_BOOT to the
|
|
build configuration:
|
|
|
|
- Defconfig:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_SECURE_BOOT=y
|
|
|
|
- Kconfig:
|
|
|
|
ARM architecture -> Support i.MX HAB features
|
|
|
|
1.3 Creating the CSF description file
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The CSF contains all the commands that the HAB executes during the secure
|
|
boot. These commands instruct the HAB code on which memory areas of the image
|
|
to authenticate, which keys to install, use and etc.
|
|
|
|
CSF examples are available under doc/imx/habv4/csf_examples/ directory.
|
|
|
|
Build logs containing the "Authenticate Data" parameters are available after
|
|
the U-Boot build, the example below is a log for mx6sabresd_defconfig target:
|
|
|
|
- SPL build log:
|
|
|
|
$ cat SPL.log
|
|
Image Type: Freescale IMX Boot Image
|
|
Image Ver: 2 (i.MX53/6/7 compatible)
|
|
Mode: DCD
|
|
Data Size: 69632 Bytes = 68.00 KiB = 0.07 MiB
|
|
Load Address: 00907420
|
|
Entry Point: 00908000
|
|
HAB Blocks: 0x00907400 0x00000000 0x0000ec00
|
|
|
|
- u-boot-ivt.img build log:
|
|
|
|
$ cat u-boot-ivt.img.log
|
|
Image Name: U-Boot 2019.01-00003-g78ee492eb3
|
|
Created: Mon Jan 14 17:58:10 2019
|
|
Image Type: ARM U-Boot Firmware with HABv4 IVT (uncompressed)
|
|
Data Size: 458688 Bytes = 447.94 KiB = 0.44 MiB
|
|
Load Address: 17800000
|
|
Entry Point: 00000000
|
|
HAB Blocks: 0x177fffc0 0x0000 0x0006e020
|
|
|
|
As explained in section above the SPL is first authenticated by the ROM code
|
|
and the root of trust is extended to the U-Boot image, hence two CSF files are
|
|
necessary to completely sign a bootloader image.
|
|
|
|
In "Authenticate Data" CSF command users can copy and past the output
|
|
addresses, the csf_uboot.txt can be used as example:
|
|
|
|
- In csf_SPL.txt:
|
|
|
|
Block = 0x00907400 0x00000000 0x0000ec00 "SPL"
|
|
|
|
- In csf_uboot-ivt.txt:
|
|
|
|
Block = 0x177fffc0 0x0000 0x0006e020 "u-boot-ivt.img"
|
|
|
|
1.4 Signing the images
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
The CST tool is used for singing the U-Boot binary and generating a CSF binary,
|
|
users should input the CSF description file created in the step above and
|
|
receive a CSF binary, which contains the CSF commands, SRK table, signatures
|
|
and certificates.
|
|
|
|
- Create SPL CSF binary file:
|
|
|
|
$ ./cst -i csf_SPL.txt -o csf_SPL.bin
|
|
|
|
- Append CSF signature to the end of SPL image:
|
|
|
|
$ cat SPL csf_SPL.bin > SPL-signed
|
|
|
|
- Create U-Boot proper CSF binary file:
|
|
|
|
$ ./cst -i csf_uboot-ivt.txt -o csf_uboot-ivt.bin
|
|
|
|
- Append CSF signature to the end of U-Boot proper image:
|
|
|
|
$ cat u-boot-ivt.img csf_uboot-ivt.bin > u-boot-signed.img
|
|
|
|
The bootloader is signed and can be flashed into the boot media.
|
|
|
|
1.5 Closing the device
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
The procedure for closing the device is similar as in Non-SPL targets, for a
|
|
complete procedure please refer to section "1.5 Programming SRK Hash" in
|
|
mx6_mx7_secure_boot.txt document available under doc/imx/habv4/guides/
|
|
directory.
