``uboot-sign``
==============
The :ref:`ref-classes-uboot-sign` class provides support for U-Boot verified boot.
It is intended to be inherited from U-Boot recipes.
Here are variables used by this class:
- :term:`SPL_MKIMAGE_DTCOPTS`: DTC options for U-Boot ``mkimage`` when
building the FIT image.
- :term:`SPL_SIGN_ENABLE`: enable signing the FIT image.
- :term:`SPL_SIGN_KEYDIR`: directory containing the signing keys.
- :term:`SPL_SIGN_KEYNAME`: base filename of the signing keys.
- :term:`UBOOT_FIT_ADDRESS_CELLS`: ``#address-cells`` value for the FIT image.
- :term:`UBOOT_FIT_DESC`: description string encoded into the FIT image.
- :term:`UBOOT_FIT_GENERATE_KEYS`: generate the keys if they don't exist yet.
- :term:`UBOOT_FIT_HASH_ALG`: hash algorithm for the FIT image.
- :term:`UBOOT_FIT_KEY_GENRSA_ARGS`: ``openssl genrsa`` arguments.
- :term:`UBOOT_FIT_KEY_REQ_ARGS`: ``openssl req`` arguments.
- :term:`UBOOT_FIT_SIGN_ALG`: signature algorithm for the FIT image.
- :term:`UBOOT_FIT_SIGN_NUMBITS`: size of the private key for FIT image
signing.
- :term:`UBOOT_FIT_KEY_SIGN_PKCS`: algorithm for the public key certificate
for FIT image signing.
- :term:`UBOOT_FITIMAGE_ENABLE`: enable the generation of a U-Boot FIT image.
- :term:`UBOOT_MKIMAGE_DTCOPTS`: DTC options for U-Boot ``mkimage`` when
rebuilding the FIT image containing the kernel.
See U-Boot's documentation for details about `verified boot
<https://source.denx.de/u-boot/u-boot/-/blob/master/doc/uImage.FIT/verified-boot.txt>`__
and the `signature process
<https://source.denx.de/u-boot/u-boot/-/blob/master/doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt>`__.

imitates.

The default value is set to "" by the :ref:`ref-classes-uboot-config`

:term:`SPL_SIGN_ENABLE`
Enable signing of the U-Boot FIT image. The default value is "0".
This variable is used by the :ref:`ref-classes-uboot-sign` class.
:term:`SPL_SIGN_KEYDIR`
Location of the directory containing the RSA key and certificate used for

The name of keys used by the :ref:`ref-classes-kernel-fitimage` class

command-line parameter to the ``uboot-mkimage`` utility.
To pass a 64 bit address for FIT image creation, you will need to set
the :term:`FIT_ADDRESS_CELLS` variable too.
To pass a 64 bit address for FIT image creation, you will need to set:
- The :term:`FIT_ADDRESS_CELLS` variable for FIT image creation.
- The :term:`UBOOT_FIT_ADDRESS_CELLS` variable for U-Boot FIT image creation.
This variable is used by the :ref:`ref-classes-kernel-fitimage`,
:ref:`ref-classes-kernel-uimage`, :ref:`ref-classes-kernel`,
:ref:`ref-classes-uboot-config` and :ref:`ref-classes-uboot-sign`
classes.
:term:`UBOOT_FIT_ADDRESS_CELLS`
Specifies the value of the ``#address-cells`` value for the
description of the U-Boot FIT image.
The default value is set to "1" by the :ref:`ref-classes-uboot-sign`
class, which corresponds to 32 bit addresses.
For platforms that need to set 64 bit addresses in
:term:`UBOOT_LOADADDRESS` and :term:`UBOOT_ENTRYPOINT`, you need to
set this value to "2", as two 32 bit values (cells) will be needed
to represent such addresses.
Here is an example setting "0x400000000" as a load address::
UBOOT_FIT_ADDRESS_CELLS = "2"
UBOOT_LOADADDRESS= "0x04 0x00000000"
See `more details about #address-cells <https://elinux.org/Device_Tree_Usage#How_Addressing_Works>`__.
:term:`UBOOT_FIT_DESC`
Specifies the description string encoded into a U-Boot fitImage. The default
value is set by the :ref:`ref-classes-uboot-sign` class as follows::
UBOOT_FIT_DESC ?= "U-Boot fitImage for ${DISTRO_NAME}/${PV}/${MACHINE}"
:term:`UBOOT_FIT_GENERATE_KEYS`
Decides whether to generate the keys for signing the U-Boot fitImage if
they don't already exist. The keys are created in :term:`SPL_SIGN_KEYDIR`.
The default value is "0".
Enable this as follows::
UBOOT_FIT_GENERATE_KEYS = "1"
This variable is used in the :ref:`ref-classes-uboot-sign` class.
:term:`UBOOT_FIT_HASH_ALG`
Specifies the hash algorithm used in creating the U-Boot FIT Image.
It is set by default to ``sha256`` by the :ref:`ref-classes-uboot-sign`
class.
:term:`UBOOT_FIT_KEY_GENRSA_ARGS`
Arguments to ``openssl genrsa`` for generating a RSA private key for
signing the U-Boot FIT image. The default value of this variable
is set to "-F4" by the :ref:`ref-classes-uboot-sign` class.
:term:`UBOOT_FIT_KEY_REQ_ARGS`
Arguments to ``openssl req`` for generating a certificate for signing
the U-Boot FIT image. The default value is "-batch -new" by the
:ref:`ref-classes-uboot-sign` class, "batch" for
non interactive mode and "new" for generating new keys.
:term:`UBOOT_FIT_KEY_SIGN_PKCS`
Format for the public key certificate used for signing the U-Boot FIT
image. The default value is set to "x509" by the
:ref:`ref-classes-uboot-sign` class.
:term:`UBOOT_FIT_SIGN_ALG`
Specifies the signature algorithm used in creating the U-Boot FIT Image.
This variable is set by default to "rsa2048" by the
:ref:`ref-classes-uboot-sign` class.
:term:`UBOOT_FIT_SIGN_NUMBITS`
Size of the private key used in signing the U-Boot FIT image, in number
of bits. The default value for this variable is set to "2048"
by the :ref:`ref-classes-uboot-sign` class.
:term:`UBOOT_FITIMAGE_ENABLE`
This variable allows to generate a FIT image for U-Boot, which is one
of the ways to implement a verified boot process.
Its default value is "0", so set it to "1" to enable this functionality::
UBOOT_FITIMAGE_ENABLE = "1"
See the :ref:`ref-classes-uboot-sign` class for details.
:term:`UBOOT_LOADADDRESS`
Specifies the load address for the U-Boot image. During U-Boot image
creation, the :term:`UBOOT_LOADADDRESS` variable is passed as a
command-line parameter to the ``uboot-mkimage`` utility.
To pass a 64 bit address for FIT image creation, you will need to set
the :term:`FIT_ADDRESS_CELLS` variable too.
To pass a 64 bit address, you will also need to set:
- The :term:`FIT_ADDRESS_CELLS` variable for FIT image creation.
- The :term:`UBOOT_FIT_ADDRESS_CELLS` variable for U-Boot FIT image creation.
This variable is used by the :ref:`ref-classes-kernel-fitimage`,
:ref:`ref-classes-kernel-uimage`, :ref:`ref-classes-kernel`,
