This series aims to eliminate the use of additional custom repositories such as k3-image-gen (K3 Image Generation) repo and core-secdev-k3 (K3 Security Development Tools) that was plumbed into the U-Boot build flow to generate boot images for TI K3 platform devices. And instead, we move towards using binman that aligns better with the community standard build flow.
This series uses binman for all K3 platforms supported on U-Boot currently; both HS (High Security, both SE and FS) and GP (General Purpose) devices.
Background on using k3-image-gen: * TI K3 devices require a SYSFW (System Firmware) image consisting of a signed system firmware image and board configuration binaries, this is needed to bring up system firmware during U-Boot R5 SPL startup. * Board configuration data contain board-specific information such as resource management, power management and security.
Background on using core-secdev-k3: * Contains resources to sign x509 certificates for HS devices
Series intends to use binman to take over the packaging and signing for the R5 bootloader images tiboot3.bin (and sysfw.itb, for non-combined boot flow) instead of k3-image-gen.
Series also packages the A72/A53 bootloader images (tispl.bin and u-boot.img) using ATF, OPTEE and DM (Device Manager)
So, next up is fixing this in CI. After taking Andrew's patch to fix the typedef issue, and after my patches to ensure we can get pyyaml/jsonschema for python, there's problems still:
Thanks for checking this! Couple things:
Over at https://source.denx.de/u-boot/u-boot/-/jobs/617966: binman: Filename 'spl/dts/k3-am68-sk-base-board.dtb' not found in input path (.,/builds/u-boot/u-boot,board/ti/j721s2,arch/arm/dts) (cwd='/tmp/.bm-work/j721s2_hs_evm_a72')
- This is dependent on the patch merging J721S2 HS and GP configs
[1]. However it has been reverted on -next, seen in the same thread.
And then: https://source.denx.de/u-boot/u-boot/-/jobs/617965#L1328 Error: arch/arm/dts/k3-am62a-sk-binman.dtsi:167.1-8 syntax error I've fixed this, minor but serious change.
- Regarding iot2050, build fails since it uses
arch/arm/mach-k3/config.mk which is now entirely binman based. Will try moving iot2050 to binman as well.
I'll need some help with this, might need to know the bootloader flow to make a clean migration.
Where do I have to look at? Is there a git repo with that experiment somewhere?
Jan
There's no experiment yet, I will send one today; but I do not have complete understanding of the booting; whether the tispl.bin (which I assume is the only boot component that is affecting iot2050 boot since k3_fit_atf.sh is no longer there) has any concept of signing? Is core-secdev-k3 ever used?
I have a tree posted here [2] that builds flash.bin with no error for me. Please confirm whether your build flow does the same and also let me know if the binary actually boots.
