* cmd_ubi: add write.part command, to write a volume in multiple partsPaul Burton2013-10-09-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows you to write data to an UBI volume when the amount of memory available to write that data from is less than the total size of the data. For example, you may split a root filesystem UBIFS image into parts, provide the total size of the image to the first write.part command and then use multiple write.part commands to write the subsequent parts of the volume. This results in a sequence of commands akin to: ext4load mmc 0:1 0x80000000 rootfs.ubifs.0 ubi write.part 0x80000000 root 0x08000000 0x18000000 ext4load mmc 0:1 0x80000000 rootfs.ubifs.1 ubi write.part 0x80000000 root 0x08000000 ext4load mmc 0:1 0x80000000 rootfs.ubifs.2 ubi write.part 0x80000000 root 0x08000000 This would write 384MiB of data to the UBI volume 'root' whilst only requiring 128MiB of said data to be held in memory at a time.

The implementation here is mostly a glue code between MXSSB v0.4 and mkimage, but the long-term goal is to rectify this and merge MXSSB with mkimage more tightly. Once this code is properly in U-Boot, MXSSB shall be deprecated in favor of mkimage-mxsimage support. Note that the mxsimage generator needs libcrypto from OpenSSL, I therefore enabled the libcrypto/libssl unconditionally.

| * | TPL : introduce the TPL based on the SPLYing Zhang2013-08-20-0/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Due to the nand SPL on some board(e.g. P1022DS)has a size limit, it can not be more than 4K. So, the SPL cannot initialize the DDR with the SPD code. This patch introduces TPL to enable a loader stub that is loaded by the code from the SPL. It initializes the DDR with the SPD or other operations. The TPL's size is sizeable, the maximum size is decided by the memory's size that TPL runs. It initializes the DDR through SPD code, and copys final uboot image to DDR. So there are three stage uboot images: * spl_boot, * tpl_boot, * final uboot image Signed-off-by: Ying Zhang <b40530@freescale.com> Acked-by: York Sun <yorksun@freescale.com>

It loads the final uboot image into DDR, then jump to it to begin execution. The SPL's size is sizeable, the maximum size must not exceed the size of L2 SRAM. It initializes the DDR through SPD code, and copys final uboot image to DDR. So there are two stage uboot images: * spl_boot, 96KB size. The env variables are copied to L2 SRAM, so that ddr spd code can get the interleaving mode setting in env. It loads final uboot image from offset 96KB. * final uboot image, size is variable depends on the functions enabled.

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.

This is because some images may not be signed, or may be optionally signed. But we still need a mechanism to determine when a key must be used. This feature cannot be implemented in the FIT itself, since anyone could change it to mark a key as optional. The requirement for key verification must go in with the public keys, in a place that is protected from modification. Add a -r option which tells mkimage to mark all keys that it uses for signing as 'required'. If some keys are optional and some are required, run mkimage several times (perhaps with different key directories if some keys are very secret) using the -F flag to update an existing FIT.

This allows us to use: mkimage -f test.its -K dest.dtb -k keys test.fit and have the signatures written to test.fit and the corresponding public keys written to dest.dtb. Then dest.dtb can be used as the control FDT for U-Boot (CONFIG_OF_CONTROL), thus providing U-Boot with access to the public keys it needs.
