i.MX6ULL HAB Signed U-boot Not Working

[huzaifi]

Hey,

I'm trying to implement HAB on a i.mx6ull target.

I followed the instructions of AN4581 (http://www.nxp.com/assets/documents/data/en/application-notes/AN4581.pdf).

I'm using the following CSF file, the HAB Blocks being from the output of the mkimage command.

[Header]
Version = 4.1
Hash Algorithm = sha256
Engine = ANY
Engine Configuration = 0
Certificate Format = X509
Signature Format = CMS

[Install SRK]
File = "../crts/SRK_1_2_3_4_table.bin"
Source index = 0 # Index of the key location in the SRK table to be installed

[Install CSFK]
# Key used to authenticate the CSF data
File = "../crts/CSF1_1_sha256_4096_65537_v3_usr_crt.pem"

[Authenticate CSF]

[Install Key]
# Key slot index used to authenticate the key to be installed
Verification index = 0
# Target key slot in HAB key store where key will be installed
Target Index = 2
# Key to install
File= "../crts/IMG1_1_sha256_4096_65537_v3_usr_crt.pem"

[Authenticate Data]
# Key slot index used to authenticate the image data
Verification index = 2
#        Address    Offset  Length    Data File Path
Blocks = 0x177ff400 0x0 0x58c00   "u-boot.imx"

The signed uboot is then generated using commands like:

./cst --o csf-uboot.bin --i csf-uboot
cat u-boot.imx csf-uboot.bin > u-boot-signed.imx

This u-boot is next flashed on the MMC of my target device.

The resulting u-boot-signed.imx doesn't work. The following events are generated:

--------- HAB Event 1 -----------------
event data:
        0xdb 0x00 0x14 0x42 0x33 0x18 0xc0 0x00
        0xca 0x00 0x0c 0x00 0x01 0xc5 0x00 0x00
        0x00 0x00 0x0d 0xdc

STS = HAB_FAILURE (0x33)
RSN = HAB_INV_SIGNATURE (0x18)
CTX = HAB_CTX_COMMAND (0xC0)
ENG = HAB_ENG_ANY (0x00)

--------- HAB Event 2 -----------------
event data:
        0xdb 0x00 0x14 0x42 0x33 0x0c 0xa0 0x00
        0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x17 0x7f 0xf4 0x00
        0x00 0x00 0x00 0x20

STS = HAB_FAILURE (0x33)
RSN = HAB_INV_ASSERTION (0x0C)
CTX = HAB_CTX_ASSERT (0xA0)
ENG = HAB_ENG_ANY (0x00)

--------- HAB Event 3 -----------------
event data:
        0xdb 0x00 0x14 0x42 0x33 0x0c 0xa0 0x00
        0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x17 0x7f 0xf4 0x2c
        0x00 0x00 0x02 0x08

STS = HAB_FAILURE (0x33)
RSN = HAB_INV_ASSERTION (0x0C)
CTX = HAB_CTX_ASSERT (0xA0)
ENG = HAB_ENG_ANY (0x00)

--------- HAB Event 4 -----------------
event data:
        0xdb 0x00 0x14 0x42 0x33 0x0c 0xa0 0x00
        0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x17 0x7f 0xf4 0x20
        0x00 0x00 0x00 0x01

STS = HAB_FAILURE (0x33)
RSN = HAB_INV_ASSERTION (0x0C)
CTX = HAB_CTX_ASSERT (0xA0)
ENG = HAB_ENG_ANY (0x00)

--------- HAB Event 5 -----------------
event data:
        0xdb 0x00 0x14 0x42 0x33 0x0c 0xa0 0x00
        0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x17 0x80 0x00 0x00
        0x00 0x00 0x00 0x04

STS = HAB_FAILURE (0x33)
RSN = HAB_INV_ASSERTION (0x0C)
CTX = HAB_CTX_ASSERT (0xA0)
ENG = HAB_ENG_ANY (0x00)

Furthermore, if I use the CAAM or SW engines int he header of the csf file, the signed u-boot does not boot at all. I want to point out that I am using a 4K key (4096). I already have my fuses programmed. 

How do I fix these HAB events? How do i get engines other than ANY to work. Also, I see that most people use a 2K key (2048), Does that play a role?

Thank you for the help!

I have the same issue and same HAB events, any clues you coudl share? Thank you

I have the same problem, which the same HAB event. Did you get a solution? Any clues you could share?
