s32k312 basic secure boot workflow

fantong9 — Fri, 05 Jul 2024 10:00:24 GMT

pls help me to check if understand correct?

1. for hse basic secure boot, the app integrity check is by bootloader, so it need a additional software (bootloader ) to do it. bootloader maybe a normal app and not started with secure boot, so it may be modified and app cant be fully trusted.

2. in HSE demoExample-Advanced_secure_boot project, it just run once to setup the SMR data. after reset, it can be erased and hse firmware check the smr data and jump to the app if passed check.

Associated demo project can be downloaded here:
