I.MX8MP Secure Boot Issues

KadirY — Thu, 19 Dec 2024 08:47:52 GMT

Hello,

I’ve been following the guides for i.MX8M secure boot and I’m using an SD card to boot. So far, I’ve generated a flash.bin containing the SPL, U-Boot, ATF, etc., generated the keys and fuse maps, and finally fused the keys. However, I am encountering the following error:

resetting ...

U-Boot SPL 2022.04-bcn_lf_v2022.04+gf016f1f8de (Nov 02 2022 - 17:32:57 +0000)

Error: Invalid IVT structure
spl: ERROR: image authentication unsuccessful

The guidelines I followed provided a genIVT.pl script, but I’m unsure how to modify it to resolve the issue.

When I flash my SD card without the IVT (just flash.bin), using bs=1K seek=32, I am able to boot without issues. This suggests that my offsets are correct, but I am uncertain where exactly to place the IVT.

I would be happy to share my environment details as they are critical for the IVT configuration.

I'm also unsure how to use the chain of trust to authenticate the kernel image as well.

I would appreciate any assistance or guidance you can provide.

Here, I have listed pretty much everything I've done so far.

Here is my mkimage_imx8 log:

According to this I have prepared my csf files:

According to these, I have appended the .bin files as follows:

dd if=csf_spl.bin of=flash.bin seek=$((0x3a600)) bs=1 conv=notrunc
dd if=csf_fit.bin of=flash.bin seek=$((0x59020)) bs=1 conv=notrunc

However, there is an issue with csf_fit.bin generation.

I've edited the soc.mak so that I can use my board's dtb, when I run the ./print_fit_hab.sh I get:

./../scripts/pad_image.sh tee.bin
./../scripts/pad_image.sh bl31.bin
./../scripts/pad_image.sh u-boot-nodtb.bin imx8mp-my-kit.dtb
u-boot-nodtb.bin + imx8mp-my-kit.dtb are padded to 1042176
TEE_LOAD_ADDR=0x56000000 ATF_LOAD_ADDR=0x00970000 VERSION=v2 ./print_fit_hab.sh 0x60000 imx8mp-my-kit.dtb

0x970000 0x159700 0xB146
0x56000000 0x164848 0x78EF0

Using these values I get the error at csf_fit.bin creations:

./cst -i csf_fit.txt -o csf_fit.bin

Invalid Block arguments, Blocks start offset and length together exceed file size in command AuthenticateData

Also, I still yet to figure out how to generate the IVT and where at the image do I place it.

Hi @KadirY

Have you tried to follow up the guide mx8m_secure_boot.txt for secure boot?

The one can also be helpful for reference. i-MX-8MPlus-865-HAB-High-Assurance-Boot

Greetings,

I have been following the guide you have mentioned. There is no guidelines for ivt generation nor the details about the csf files. I get error when at csf_fit.bin generation when I use the dtb of my devboard, so I can't proceed with that. When I remove the "0x56000000 0x164848 0x78EF0 "flash.bin" part, I can get a csf_fit.bin but then again IVT is the main issue for me.
A quick question, what do csf.bin files include? Do they posses the signatures etc? So far, even at the mx8m_secure_boot.txt, I could not find a specific note about the signature locations.
Thanks in advance!

Here is the for IVT gen, script_examples

Not quite sure the question about csf.bin, If I'm not wrong to your question, you may refer to the AN4581 or CST User’s Guide downloading from IMX_CST_TOOL_NEW

Signature location can be obtained from making images.

Harvey

Hello,
There are parameters such as Load Address, Signature and CSF Pointer etc at the ivt script. Load addr is different for my uboot csf so I edited that but, are there any set addresses that shall not be touched? There is signature and pointer addresses?

Do mkimage tool generated images contain the IVT for the spl+uboot? I've generated the images with "make -f soc.mak SOC=iMX8MP flash_spl_uboot" command.

So far, the log appears at the serial port contains strings from the spl.c and hab.c, i.e.

"/workspace/sources/u-boot-imx/arch/arm/mach-imx/spl.c:444:panic("spl: ERROR: image authentication unsuccessful\n");"

"sources/u-boot-imx/arch/arm/mach-imx/hab.c:866:/* Invalid IVT structure */"

My understanding is that the bootrom has successfully authenticated the spl and spl failed to authenticate the fit image. Is it correct?
