HAB on MCIMX7SABRE

basvermeulen — Wed, 28 Sep 2016 08:31:05 GMT

I am trying to enable High Assurance Boot on the i.MX7 Sabre board.

The things I have already found and/or tried:

I have found and read the i.MX 6 Linux High Assurance Boot (HAB) User's Guide (which helps a lot with creating keys)
The cst-2.3.2 utility to create the keys.
I have modified the configuration of u-boot to add CONFIG_SECURE_BOOT in include/configs/mx7dsabresd.h; this compiles in HAB support for mx7 (arch/arm/cpu/armv7/mx7/hab.c).

The procedure to burn the chip fuses seems to have changed for either i.MX7 Sabre, or for kernel version 4.1.15 vs 3.0.35.

My questions:

What is the procedure to burn fuses on the i.MX7 with kernel 4.1.15? A pointer to documentation or an application note would be great.
Is the static HAB data allocation method still supported for i.MX7?
Is there a Yocto recipe to do this automatically?

Any help would be much appreciated,

Bas Vermeulen

Hi Bas

I am not aware of special i.MX7 docs, seems UL guidelines may be applicable

Signed and encrypted boot in i.MX6UL

for programming fuses uboot may be used

I'm aware of several documents regarding Secure Boot. I have read and followed the i.MX 6 Linux High Assurance Boot (HAB) User's Guide from L3.0.35_1.1.0_docs.tar.gz (I can't find the download link for that any more atm).

The procedure to burn the fuses in that document (using the OTP interface in linux) is different from the one I have available in the 4.1.15 kernel supplied by the i.MX7 SabreSD BSP.

for sys/fsl_otp one can look at

How to access the i.MX6 unique ID/serial number in Linux

https://community.nxp.com/thread/429484

though for i.MX6, it should work for i.MX7 too.

The otp registers are different between i.MX6 and i.MX7 (no HW_OCOTP_CFG5 for instance, and HW_OCOTP_BOOT_CFG0..4 instead of HW_OCOTP_CFG?).

I understand the general procedure, I know WHAT I have to do, but am missing the specific steps to do them with.

- Will i.MX7 work with the OTPMK1..7 values from i.MX6, or does it need other values?

- What register should I use to set the boot to secure (HW_OCOTP_CFG5 is no longer there)?

you need only use fuses which present in i.MX7, if these are not present so

they are not used.

OTPMK programming only required for i.MX6 preproduction parts where

the fuses that are normally programmed by Freescale are not programmed.

On production parts, the OTPMK are be burned by Freescale prior to shipping the device.

Please create service request so additional info could be provided to you.
