* image: Add FIT image loadable section custom processingAndrew F. Davis2016-12-03-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | To help automate the loading of custom image types we add the ability to define custom handlers for the loadable section types. When we find a compatible type while loading a "loadable" image from a FIT image we run its associated handlers to perform any additional steps needed for loading this image. Signed-off-by: Andrew F.

* mkimage: fit: spl: Add an optional static offset for external dataTeddy Reed2016-06-24-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | When building a FIT with external data (-E), U-Boot proper may require absolute positioning for executing the external firmware. To acheive this use the (-p) switch, which will replace the amended 'data-offset' with 'data-position' indicating the absolute position of external data. It is considered an error if the requested absolute position overlaps with the initial data required for the compact FIT. Signed-off-by: Teddy Reed <teddy.reed@gmail.com>

* doc: fix file extension for flattened image tree blobAndreas Dannenberg2016-04-01-1/+1

* mkimage: Support placing data outside the FITSimon Glass2016-03-14-1/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | One limitation of FIT is that all the data is 'inline' within it, using a 'data' property in each image node. This means that to find out what is in the FIT it is necessary to scan the entire file. Once loaded it can be scanned and then the images can be copied to the correct place in memory. In SPL it can take a significant amount of time to copy images around in memory. Also loading data that does not end up being used is wasteful. It would be useful if the FIT were small, acting as a directory, with the actual data stored elsewhere. This allows SPL to load the entire FIT, without the images, then load the images it wants later. Add a -E option to mkimage to request that it output an 'external' FIT.

* Implement generalised RSA public exponents for verified bootMichael van der Westhuizen2014-08-09-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the verified boot limitation that only allows a single RSA public exponent of 65537 (F4). This change allows use with existing PKI infrastructure and has been tested with HSM-based PKI. Change the configuration OF tree format to store the RSA public exponent as a 64 bit integer and implement backward compatibility for verified boot configuration trees without this extra field. Parameterise vboot_test.sh to test different public exponents. Mathematics and other hard work by Andrew Bott. Tested with the following public exponents: 3, 5, 17, 257, 39981, 50457, 65537 and 4294967297.

| | | | | | | | | | | Add a description of how to implement verified boot using signed FIT images, and a simple test which verifies operation on sandbox.

* image: Add support for signing of FIT configurationsSimon Glass2013-06-26-1/+212
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While signing images is useful, it does not provide complete protection against several types of attack. For example, it it possible to create a FIT with the same signed images, but with the configuration changed such that a different one is selected (mix and match attack). It is also possible to substitute a signed image from an older FIT version into a newer FIT (roll-back attack). Add support for signing of FIT configurations using the libfdt's region support.
