Supported Targets

STM32F4

Example 512KB partitioning on STM32-F407

The example firmware provided in the test-app is configured to boot from the primary partition starting at address 0x20000. The flash layout is provided by the default example using the following configuration in target.h:

#define WOLFBOOT_SECTOR_SIZE              0x20000
#define WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_SIZE           0x20000

#define WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_BOOT_ADDRESS   0x20000
#define WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_UPDATE_ADDRESS 0x40000
#define WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_SWAP_ADDRESS   0x60000

This results in the following partition configuration:

example partitions

This configuration demonstrates one of the possible layouts, with the slots aligned to the beginning of the physical sector on the flash.

The entry point for all the runnable firmware images on this target will be 0x20100, 256 Bytes after the beginning of the first flash partition. This is due to the presence of the firmware image header at the beginning of the partition, as explained more in details in Firmware image

In this particular case, due to the flash geometry, the swap space must be as big as 128KB, to account for proper sector swapping between the two images.

On other systems, the SWAP space can be as small as 512B, if multiple smaller flash blocks are used.

More information about the geometry of the flash and in-application programming (IAP) can be found in the manufacturer manual of each target device.

STM32L5

Scenario 1: TrustZone Enabled

Example Description

The implementation shows how to switch from secure application to non-secure application, thanks to the system isolation performed, which splits the internal Flash and internal SRAM memories into two parts:

  • the first half is used by wolfboot running in secure mode and the secure application
  • the remaining available space is used for non-secure application and update partition

The example configuration for this scenario is available in /config/examples/stm32l5.config.

Hardware and Software environment

  • This example runs on STM32L562QEIxQ devices with security enabled (TZEN=1).
  • This example has been tested with STMicroelectronics STM32L562E-DK (MB1373)
  • User Option Bytes requirement (with STM32CubeProgrammer tool - see below for instructions)

SECWM1_PSTRT=0x0  SECWM1_PEND=0x7F  All 128 pages of internal Flash Bank1 set as secure
SECWM2_PSTRT=0x1  SECWM2_PEND=0x0   No page of internal Flash Bank2 set as secure, hence Bank2 non-secure
  • NOTE: STM32CubeProgrammer V2.3.0 is required (v2.4.0 has a known bug for STM32L5)

  • Mac OS/X: /Applications/STMicroelectronics/STM32Cube/STM32CubeProgrammer/STM32CubeProgrammer.app/Contents/MacOs/bin/STM32_Programmer_CLI

Scenario 2: Trustzone Enabled, wolfCrypt as secure engine for NS applications

This is similar to Scenario 1, but also includes wolfCrypt in secure mode, and that can be accessed via PKCS11 interface by non-secure applications.

This option can be enabled with the WOLFCRYPT_TZ=1 and WOLFCRYPT_TZ_PKCS11=1 options in your configuration. This enables a PKCS11 accessible from NS domain via non-secure callables (NSC).

The example configuration for this scenario is available in /config/examples/stm32l5-wolfcrypt-tz.config.

For more information, see /docs/STM32-TZ.md.

Scenario 3: Trustzone Disabled, using DUAL BANK

Example Description

The implementation shows how to use STM32L5xx in DUAL BANK mode, with TrustZone disabled. The DUAL_BANK option is only available on this target when TrustZone is disabled (TZEN = 0).

The flash memory is segmented into two different banks:

  • Bank 0: (0x08000000)
  • Bank 1: (0x08040000)

Bank 0 contains the bootloader at address 0x08000000, and the application at address 0x08040000. When a valid image is available at the same offset in Bank 1, a candidate is selected for booting between the two valid images. A firmware update can be uploaded at address 0x08048000.

The example configuration is available in /config/examples/stm32l5-nonsecure-dualbank.config.

To run flash ./test-app/image.bin to 0x08000000. - STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd -d ./test-app/image.bin 0x08000000

Or program each partition using:

  1. flash wolfboot.bin to 0x08000000:
    • STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd -d ./wolfboot.elf
  2. flash main application to 0x0800 a000
    • STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd -d ./test-app/image_v1_signed.bin 0x0800a000

RED LD9 will be on indicating successful boot ().

Updates can be flashed at 0x0804a000:

  • STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd -d ./test-app/image_v2_signed.bin 0x0804a000

The two partition are logically remapped by using BANK_SWAP capabilities. This partition swap is immediate and does not require a SWAP partition.

Debugging

Use make DEBUG=1 and reload firmware.

STM32U5

The STM32U5 is a Cortex-M33 (ARMv8-M).

Note: We have seen issues with vector table alignment, so the default image header size (IMAGE_HEADER_SIZE) has been increased to 1024 bytes to avoid potential issues.

Scenario 1: TrustZone enabled, staging non-secure application

Example description

The implementation shows how to switch from secure application to non-secure application, thanks to the system isolation performed, which splits the internal Flash and internal SRAM memories into two parts:

  • the first 256KB are used by wolfboot running in secure mode and the secure application
  • the remaining available space is used for non-secure application and update partition

STM32L0

Example 192KB partitioning on STM32-L073

This device is capable of erasing single flash pages (256B each).

However, we choose to use a logic sector size of 4KB for the swaps, to limit the amount of writes to the swap partition.

The proposed geometry in this example target.h uses 32KB for wolfBoot, and two partitions of 64KB each, leaving room for up to 8KB to use for swap (4K are being used here).

#define WOLFBOOT_SECTOR_SIZE                 0x1000   /* 4 KB */
#define WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_BOOT_ADDRESS      0x8000
#define WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_SIZE              0x10000 /* 64 KB */
#define WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_UPDATE_ADDRESS    0x18000
#define WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_SWAP_ADDRESS      0x28000

STM32L0 Building

Use make TARGET=stm32l0. The option CORTEX_M0 is automatically selected for this target.

STM32G0

Supports STM32G0x0x0/STM32G0x1.

Example 128KB partitioning on STM32-G070:

  • Sector size: 2KB
  • Wolfboot partition size: 32KB
  • Application partition size: 44 KB
#define WOLFBOOT_SECTOR_SIZE                 0x800   /* 2 KB */
#define WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_BOOT_ADDRESS      0x08008000
#define WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_SIZE              0xB000  /* 44 KB */
#define WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_UPDATE_ADDRESS    0x08013000
#define WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_SWAP_ADDRESS      0x0801E000

Building STM32G0

Reference configuration (see /config/examples/stm32g0.config). You can copy this to wolfBoot root as .config: cp ./config/examples/stm32g0.config .config. To build you can use make.

The TARGET for this is stm32g0: make TARGET=stm32g0. The option CORTEX_M0 is automatically selected for this target. The option NVM_FLASH_WRITEONCE=1 is mandatory on this target, since the IAP driver does not support multiple writes after each erase operation.

STM32G0 Secure Hide Protection Feature (Optional)

This part supports a "secure memory protection" feature makes the wolfBoot partition unaccessible after jump to application.

It uses the FLASH_CR:SEC_PROT and FLASH_SECT:SEC_SIZE registers. This is the number of 2KB pages to block access to from the 0x8000000 base address.

Command example to enable this for 32KB bootloader:

STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd mode=hotplug -ob SEC_SIZE=0x10

Enabled with CFLAGS_EXTRA+=-DFLASH_SECURABLE_MEMORY_SUPPORT. Requires RAM_CODE=1 to enable RAMFUNCTION support.

STM32G0 Programming

Compile requirements: make TARGET=stm32g0 NVM_FLASH_WRITEONCE=1

The output is a single factory.bin that includes wolfboot.bin and test-app/image_v1_signed.bin combined together. This should be programmed to the flash start address 0x08000000.

Flash using the STM32CubeProgrammer CLI:

STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd -d factory.bin 0x08000000

STM32G0 Debugging

Use make DEBUG=1 and program firmware again.

STM32C0

Supports STM32C0x0/STM32C0x1. Instructions are for the STM Nucleo-C031C6 dev board.

Tested build configurations:

  • With RSA2048 and SHA2-256 the code size is 10988 and it boots in under 1 second.
  • With ED25519 and SHA2-384 the code size is 10024 and takes about 10 seconds for the LED to turn on.
  • With LMS-8-10-1 and SHA2-256 the code size is 8164 on gcc-13 (could fit in 8KB partition)

SiFive HiFive1 RISC-V

Features

  • E31 RISC-V 320MHz 32-bit processor
  • Onboard 16KB scratchpad RAM
  • External 4MB QSPI Flash

Default Linker Settings

  • FLASH: Address 0x20000000, Len 0x6a120 (424 KB)
  • RAM: Address 0x80000000, Len 0x4000 (16 KB)

Stock bootloader

Start Address: 0x20000000 is 64KB. Provides a "double tap" reset feature to halt boot and allow debugger to attach for reprogramming. Press reset button, when green light comes on press reset button again, then board will flash red.

Application Code

Start Address: 0x20010000

wolfBoot configuration

The default wolfBoot configuration will add a second stage bootloader, leaving the stock "double tap" bootloader as a fallback for recovery. Your production implementation should replace this and partition addresses in target.h will need updated, so they are 0x10000 less.

To set the Freedom SDK location use FREEDOM_E_SDK=~/src/freedom-e-sdk.

For testing wolfBoot here are the changes required:

  1. Makefile arguments:

    • ARCH=RISCV
    • TARGET=hifive1
    make ARCH=RISCV TARGET=hifive1 RAM_CODE=1 clean
    make ARCH=RISCV TARGET=hifive1 RAM_CODE=1
    

    If using the riscv64-unknown-elf- cross compiler you can add CROSS_COMPILE=riscv64-unknown-elf- to your make or modify arch.mk as follows:

     ifeq ($(ARCH),RISCV)
    -  CROSS_COMPILE:=riscv32-unknown-elf-
    +  CROSS_COMPILE:=riscv64-unknown-elf-

STM32F7

The STM32-F76x and F77x offer dual-bank hardware-assisted swapping. The flash geometry must be defined beforehand, and wolfBoot can be compiled to use hardware assisted bank-swapping to perform updates.

Example 2MB partitioning on STM32-F769:

  • Dual-bank configuration

BANK A: 0x08000000 to 0x080FFFFFF (1MB) BANK B: 0x08100000 to 0x081FFFFFF (1MB)

  • WolfBoot executes from BANK A after reboot (address: 0x08000000)
  • Boot partition @ BANK A + 0x20000 = 0x08020000
  • Update partition @ BANK B + 0x20000 = 0x08120000
  • Application entry point: 0x08020100

#define WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_UPDATE_ADDRESS 0x08120000
#define WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_SWAP_ADDRESS   0x0   /* Unused, swap is hw-assisted */

Build Options

To activate the dual-bank hardware-assisted swap feature on STM32F76x/77x, use the DUALBANK_SWAP=1 compile time option. Some code requires to run in RAM during the swapping of the images, so the compile-time option RAMCODE=1 is also required in this case.

Dual-bank STM32F7 build can be built using:

make TARGET=stm32f7 DUALBANK_SWAP=1 RAM_CODE=1

Loading the firmware

To switch between single-bank (1x2MB) and dual-bank (2 x 1MB) mode mapping, this stm32f7-dualbank-tool can be used. Before starting openocd, switch the flash mode to dualbank (e.g. via make dualbank using the dualbank tool).

OpenOCD configuration for flashing/debugging, can be copied into openocd.cfg in your working directory:

source [find interface/stlink.cfg]
source [find board/stm32f7discovery.cfg]
$_TARGETNAME configure -event reset-init {
    mmw 0xe0042004 0x7 0x0
}
init
reset
halt

OpenOCD can be either run in background (to allow remote GDB and monitor terminal connections), or directly from command line, to execute terminal scripts.

If OpenOCD is running, local TCP port 4444 can be used to access an interactive terminal prompt. telnet localhost 4444

Using the following openocd commands, the initial images for wolfBoot and the test application are loaded to flash in bank 0:

flash write_image unlock erase wolfboot.bin 0x08000000
flash verify_bank 0 wolfboot.bin
flash write_image unlock erase test-app/image_v1_signed.bin 0x08020000
flash verify_bank 0 test-app/image_v1_signed.bin 0x20000
reset
resume 0x0000001

To sign the same application image as new version (2), use the sign tool provided:

tools/keytools/sign test-app/image.bin wolfboot_signing_private_key.der 2

From OpenOCD, the updated image (version 2) can be flashed to the second bank:

flash write_image unlock erase test-app/image_v2_signed.bin 0x08120000
flash verify_bank 0 test-app/image_v1_signed.bin 0x20000

Upon reboot, wolfboot will elect the best candidate (version 2 in this case) and authenticate the image. If the accepted candidate image resides on BANK B (like in this case), wolfBoot will perform one bank swap before booting.

The bank-swap operation is immediate and a SWAP image is not required in this case. Fallback mechanism can rely on a second choice (older firmware) in the other bank.

STM32F7 Debugging

Debugging with OpenOCD:

Use the OpenOCD configuration from the previous section to run OpenOCD.

From another console, connect using gdb, e.g.:

arm-none-eabi-gdb
(gdb) target remote:3333

STM32H5

Like STM32L5 and STM32U5, STM32H5 support is also demonstrated through different scenarios.

Additionally, wolfBoot can be compiled with FLASH_OTP_KEYSTORE option, to store the public key(s) used for firmware authentication into a dedicated, one-time programmable flash area that can be write protected. For more information, see /docs/flash-OTP.md.

Scenario 1: TrustZone enabled, staging non-secure application

Example description

The implementation shows how to switch from secure application to non-secure application, thanks to the system isolation performed, which splits the internal Flash and internal SRAM memories into two parts:

  • the first 256KB are used by wolfboot running in secure mode and the secure application
  • the remaining available space is used for non-secure application and update partition

The example configuration for this scenario is available in /config/examples/stm32h5.config.

How to use it

  • set the option bytes to enable trustzone:

STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd -ob TZEN=0xB4

  • set the option bytes to enable flash secure protection of first 256KB: STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd -ob SECWM1_PSTRT=0x0 SECWM1_PEND=0x1F SECWM2_PSTRT=0x1F SECWM2_PEND=0x0

  • flash the wolfboot image to the secure partition: STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd -d wolfboot.bin 0x0C000000

  • flash the application image to the non-secure partition: STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd -d test-app/image_v1_signed.bin 0x08040000

For a full list of all the option bytes tested with this configuration, refer to STM32-TZ.md.

Scenario 2: TrustZone Enabled, wolfCrypt as secure engine for NS applications

This is similar to Scenario 1, but also includes wolfCrypt in secure mode, and that can be accessed via PKCS11 interface by non-secure applications.

This option can be enabled with the WOLFCRYPT_TZ=1 and WOLFCRYPT_TZ_PKCS11=1 options in your configuration. This enables a PKCS11 accessible from NS domain via non-secure callables (NSC).

The example configuration for this scenario is available in /config/examples/stm32h5-tz.config.

For more information, see /docs/STM32-TZ.md.

Scenario 3: DUALBANK mode

The STM32H5 can be configured to use hardware-assisted bank swapping to facilitate the update. The configuration file to copy into .config is config/examples/stm32h5-dualbank.config.

For DUALBANK with TrustZone use stm32h5-tz-dualbank-otp.config.

DUALBANK configuration (Tested on NUCLEO-STM32H563ZI):

BANK A: 0x08000000 to 0x080FFFFFF (1MB) BANK B: 0x08100000 to 0x081FFFFFF (1MB)

First of all, ensure that the SWAP_BANK option byte is off when running wolfBoot for the first time:

STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd -ob SWAP_BANK=0

It is a good idea to start with an empty flash, by erasing all sectors via:

STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd -e 0 255

Compile wolfBoot with make. The file factory.bin contains both wolfboot and the version 1 of the application, and can be uploaded to the board at the beginning of the first bank using STM32_Programmer_CLI tool:

STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd -d factory.bin 0x08000000

Optionally, you can upload another copy of wolfboot.bin to the beginning of the second bank. Wolfboot should take care of copying itself to the second bank upon first boot if you don't.:

STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd -d wolfboot.bin 0x08100000

After uploading the images, reboot your board. The green LED should indicate that v1 of the test application is running.

To initiate an update, sign a new version of the app and upload the v3 to the update partition on the second bank:

tools/keytools/sign --ecc256 test-app/image.bin wolfboot_signing_private_key.der 3
STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd -d test-app/image_v3_signed.bin 0x08110000

Reboot the board to initiate an update via DUALBANK hw-assisted swap. Any version except the first one will also turn on the orange LED.

STM32H7

The STM32H7 flash geometry must be defined beforehand.

Use the "make config" operation to generate a .config file or copy the template using cp ./config/examples/stm32h7.config .config.

Example 2MB partitioning on STM32-H753:

WOLFBOOT_SECTOR_SIZE?=0x20000
WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_SIZE?=0xD0000
WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_BOOT_ADDRESS?=0x8020000
WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_UPDATE_ADDRESS?=0x80F0000
WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_SWAP_ADDRESS?=0x81C0000

Build Options

The STM32H7 build can be built using:

make TARGET=stm32h7 SIGN=ECC256

The STM32H7 also supports using the QSPI for external flash. To enable use QSPI_FLASH=1 in your configuration. The pins are defined in hal/spi/spi_drv_stm32.h. A built-in alternate pin configuration can be used with QSPI_ALT_CONFIGURATION. The flash and QSPI parameters are defined in src/qspi_flash.c and can be overridden at build time.

STM32H7 Programming

ST-Link Flash Tools:

st-flash write factory.bin 0x08000000

OR

st-flash write wolfboot.bin 0x08000000
st-flash write test-app/image_v1_signed.bin 0x08020000

STM32H7 Testing

To sign the same application image as new version (2), use the sign tool

Python: tools/keytools/sign --ecc256 --sha256 test-app/image.bin wolfboot_signing_private_key.der 2

C Tool: tools/keytools/sign --ecc256 --sha256 test-app/image.bin wolfboot_signing_private_key.der 2

Flash the updated version 2 image: st-flash write test-app/image_v2_signed.bin 0x08120000

Upon reboot, wolfboot will elect the best candidate (version 2 in this case) and authenticate the image. If the accepted candidate image resides on BANK B (like in this case), wolfBoot will perform one bank swap before booting.

Prerequisites: sudo apt install gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu qemu-system-aarch64

Compiling the kernel

  • Get raspberry-pi linux kernel:
git clone https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux linux-rpi -b rpi-4.19.y --depth=1
  • Build kernel image:
export wolfboot_dir=`pwd`
cd linux-rpi
patch -p1 < $wolfboot_dir/tools/wolfboot-rpi-devicetree.diff
make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- bcm2711_defconfig
make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu-
  • Copy Image and .dtb to the wolfboot directory
cp ./arch/arm64/boot/Image arch/arm64/boot/dts/broadcom/bcm2710-rpi-3-b.dtb $wolfboot_dir

  • Troubleshooting

o Turn on UART for debugging to know what boot-process is going on. Chaning DEBUG_UART property in .config to 1.

DEBUG_UART?=1

UART properties set as 115200 bps, 8bit data transmission, 1 stop bit and no parity.

You would see the following message when wolfboot starts.

My board version is: 0xA020D3
Trying partition 0 at 0x140000
Boot partition: 0x140000 (size 14901760, version 0x1)
....

Testing with kernel encryption

The raspberry pi target is used to demonstrate the end-to-end encryption when booting images from RAM. The image is encrypted after being signed. The bootloader uses the same symmetric key to decrypt the image to RAM before performing the validity checks. Here are the steps to enable this feature:

  • Build wolfboot using the example configuration (RSA4096, SHA3, ENCRYPT=1)
cp config/examples/raspi3-encrypted.config .config
make clean
make wolfboot.bin CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu-
  • Create the decrypt key + nonce
printf "0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef0123456789ab" > /tmp/enc_key.der
  • Sign and encrypt Linux kernel image
make keytools
./tools/keytools/sign --aes256 --encrypt /tmp/enc_key.der --rsa4096 --sha3 Image wolfboot_signing_private_key.der 1
  • Compose the image

Cypress PSoC-6

The Cypress PSoC 62S2 is a dual-core Cortex-M4 & Cortex-M0+ MCU. The secure boot process is managed by the M0+. WolfBoot can be compiled as second stage flash bootloader to manage application verification and firmware updates.

Building

The following configuration has been tested using PSoC 62S2 Wi-Fi BT Pioneer Kit (CY8CKIT-052S2-43012).

Target specific requirements

wolfBoot uses the following components to access peripherals on the PSoC:

Cypress provides a customized OpenOCD for programming the flash and debugging.

Clock settings

wolfBoot configures PLL1 to run at 100 MHz and is driving CLK_FAST, CLK_PERI, and CLK_SLOW at that frequency.

Build configuration

The following configuration has been tested on the PSoC CY8CKIT-62S2-43012:

make TARGET=psoc6 \
    NVM_FLASH_WRITEONCE=1 \
    CYPRESS_PDL=./lib/psoc6pdl \
    CYPRESS_TARGET_LIB=./lib/TARGET_CY8CKIT-062S2-43012 \
    CYPRESS_CORE_LIB=./lib/core-lib \
    WOLFBOOT_SECTOR_SIZE=4096

Note: A reference .config can be found in /config/examples/cypsoc6.config.

Hardware acceleration is enable by default using psoc6 crypto hw support.

To compile with hardware acceleration disabled, use the option

PSOC6_CRYPTO=0

in your wolfBoot configuration.

OpenOCD installation

Compile and install the customized OpenOCD.

Use the following configuration file when running openocd to connect to the PSoC6 board:

### openocd.cfg for PSoC-62S2

source [find interface/kitprog3.cfg]
transport select swd
adapter speed 1000
source [find target/psoc6_2m.cfg]
init
reset init

Loading the firmware

To upload factory.bin to the device with OpenOCD, connect the device, run OpenOCD with the configuration from the previous section, then connect to the local openOCD server running on TCP port 4444 using telnet localhost 4444.

From the telnet console, type:

program factory.bin 0x10000000

When the transfer is finished, you can either close openOCD or start a debugging session.

Debugging

Debugging with OpenOCD:

Use the OpenOCD configuration from the previous sections to run OpenOCD.

From another console, connect using gdb, e.g.:

arm-none-eabi-gdb
(gdb) target remote:3333

To reset the board to start from the M0+ flash bootloader position (wolfBoot reset handler), use the monitor command sequence below:

(gdb) mon init
(gdb) mon reset init
(gdb) mon psoc6 reset_halt

Microchip SAME51

SAME51 is a Cortex-M4 microcontroller with a dual-bank, 1MB flash memory divided in blocks of 8KB.

Toolchain

Although it is possible to build wolfBoot with xc32 compilers, we recommend to use gcc for building wolfBoot for best results in terms of footprint and performance, due to some assembly optimizations in wolfCrypt, being available for gcc only. There is no limitation however on the toolchain used to compile the application firmware or RTOS as the two binary files are independent.

Building using gcc/makefile

The following configurations have been tested using ATSAME51J20A development kit.

  • config/examples/same51.config - example configuration with swap partition (dual-bank disabled)
  • config/examples/same51-dualbank.config - configuration with two banks (no swap partition)

To build wolfBoot, copy the selected configuration into .config and run make.

Building using MPLAB IDE

Example projects are provided to build wolfBoot and a test application using MPLAB. These projects are configured to build both stages using xc32-gcc, and have been tested with MpLab IDE v. 6.20.

The example application can be used to update the firmware over USB.

More details about building the example projects can be found in the IDE/MPLAB directory in this repository.

Uploading the bootloader and the firmware image

Secure boot and updates have been tested on the SAM E51 Curiosity Nano evaluation board, connecting to a Pro debugger to the D0/D1 pads.

The two firmware images can be uploaded separately using the JLinkExe utility:

$ JLinkExe -if swd -speed 1000 -Device ATSAME51J20

J-Link> loadbin wolfboot.bin 0x0

J-Link> loadbin test-app/image_v1_signed.bin 0x8000

The above is assuming the default configuration where the BOOT partition starts at address 0x8000.

NXP iMX-RT

The NXP iMX-RT10xx family of devices contain a Cortex-M7 with a DCP coprocessor for SHA256 acceleration.

WolfBoot currently supports the NXP RT1040, RT1050, RT1060/1061/1062, and RT1064 devices.

Building wolfBoot

MCUXpresso SDK is required by wolfBoot to access device drivers on this platform. A package can be obtained from the MCUXpresso SDK Builder, by selecting a target and keeping the default choice of components.

  • For the RT1040 use EVKB-IMXRT1040. See configuration example in config/examples/imx-rt1040.config.
  • For the RT1050 use EVKB-IMXRT1050. See configuration example in config/examples/imx-rt1050.config.
  • For the RT1060 use EVKB-IMXRT1060. See configuration example in config/examples/imx-rt1060.config.
  • For the RT1064 use EVK-IMXRT1064. See configuration example in config/examples/imx-rt1064.config.

Set the wolfBoot MCUXPRESSO configuration variable to the path where the SDK package is extracted, then build wolfBoot normally by running make.

wolfBoot support for iMX-RT1060/iMX-RT1050 has been tested using MCUXpresso SDK version 2.14.0. Support for the iMX-RT1064 has been tested using MCUXpresso SDK version 2.13.0

DCP support (hardware acceleration for SHA256 operations) can be enabled by using PKA=1 in the configuration file.

You can also get the SDK and CMSIS bundles using these repositories:

Example:

MCUXSDK?=1
MCUXPRESSO?=$(PWD)/../mcux-sdk
MCUXPRESSO_DRIVERS?=$(MCUXPRESSO)/devices/MIMXRT1062
MCUXPRESSO_CMSIS?="$(PWD)/../CMSIS_5/CMSIS"

On iMX-RT10xx it is possible to load a custom DCD section from an external source file. A customized DCD section should be declared within the .dcd_data section, e.g.:

const uint8_t __attribute__((section(".dcd_data"))) dcd_data[] = { /* ... */ };

If an external .dcd_data section is provided, the option NXP_CUSTOM_DCD=1 must be added to the configuration.

Building wolfBoot for HAB (High Assurance Boot)

The imx_rt target supports building without a flash configuration, IVT, Boot Data and DCD. This is needed when wanting to use HAB through NXP's Secure Provisioning Tool to sign wolfBoot to enable secure boot. To build wolfBoot this way TARGET_IMX_HAB needs to be set to 1 in the configuration file (see config/examples/imx-rt1060 _hab.config for an example). When built with TARGET_IMX_HAB=1 wolfBoot must be written to flash using NXP's Secure Provisioning Tool.

Building libwolfBoot

To enable interactions with wolfBoot, your application needs to include libwolfBoot. When compiling this a few things are important to note:

  • When using XIP, functions that have the RAMFUNCTION signature need to be located in RAM and not flash. To do this the .ramcode section needs to be placed in RAM. Note that defining WOLFBOOT_USE_STDLIBC will not use wolfBoot's implementation of memcpy, and thus breaks this requirement.
  • When using XIP, the DCACHE_InvalidateByRange function from NXP's SDK needs to be placed in RAM. To do this exclude the file it's located in from being put into flash
.text :
{
    ...
    *(EXCLUDE_FILE(
        */fsl_cache.c.obj
        ) .text*) /* .text* sections (code) */
    *(EXCLUDE_FILE(
        */fsl_cache.c.obj
        ) .rodata*) /* .rodata* sections (constants, strings, etc.) */
    ...
} > FLASH

and instead include it in your RAM section .ram : { /fsl_cache.c.obj(.text .rodata*) } > RAM

Flashing

Firmware can be directly uploaded to the target by copying factory.bin to the virtual USB drive associated to the device, or by loading the image directly into flash using a JTAG/SWD debugger.

The RT1050 EVKB board comes wired to use the 64MB HyperFlash. If you'd like to use QSPI there is a rework that can be performed (see AN12183). The default onboard QSPI 8MB ISSI IS25WP064A (CONFIG_FLASH_IS25WP064A). To use a 64Mbit Winbond W25Q64JV define CONFIG_FLASH_W25Q64JV (16Mbit, 32Mbit, 128Mbit, 256Mbit and 512Mbit versions are also available). These options are also available for the RT1042 and RT1061 target.

If you have updated the MCULink to use JLink then you can connect to the board with JLinkExe using one of the following commands:

# HyperFlash
JLinkExe -if swd -speed 5000 -Device "MIMXRT1042xxxxB"
JLinkExe -if swd -speed 5000 -Device "MIMXRT1052XXX6A"
JLinkExe -if swd -speed 5000 -Device "MIMXRT1062XXX6B"
# QSPI
JLinkExe -if swd -speed 5000 -Device "MIMXRT1042xxxxB?BankAddr=0x60000000&Loader=QSPI"
JLinkExe -if swd -speed 5000 -Device "MIMXRT1052XXX6A?BankAddr=0x60000000&Loader=QSPI"
JLinkExe -if swd -speed 5000 -Device "MIMXRT1062XXX6B?BankAddr=0x60000000&Loader=QSPI"

Flash using:

loadbin factory.bin 0x60000000

Testing Update

First make the update partition, pre-triggered for update:

./tools/scripts/prepare_update.sh

Run the "loadbin" commands to flash the update:

loadbin update.bin 0x60030000

Reboot device. Expected output:

wolfBoot Test app, version = 1
wolfBoot Test app, version = 8

NXP QorIQ P1021 PPC

The NXP QorIQ P1021 is a PPC e500v2 based processor (two cores). This has been tested with a NAND boot source.

Boot ROM NXP P1021

wolfBoot supports loading from external flash using the eLBC FMC (Flash Machine) with NAND.

When each e500 core comes out of reset, its MMU has one 4-Kbyte page defined at 0x0_FFFF_Fnnn. For NAND boot the first 4KB is loaded to this region with the first offset jump instruction at 0x0_FFFF_FFFC. The 4KB is mapped to the eLBC FCM buffers.

This device defines the default boot ROM address range to be 8 Mbytes at address 0x0_FF80_0000 to 0x0_FFFF_FFFF.

These pin determine if the boot ROM will use small or large flash page:

  • cfg_rom_loc[0:3] = 1000 Local bus FCM-8-bit NAND flash small page
  • cfg_rom_loc[0:3] = 1010 Local bus FCM-8-bit NAND flash large page

If the boot sequencer is not enabled, the processor cores exit reset and fetches boot code in default configurations.

A loader must reside in the 4KB page to handle early startup including DDR and then load wolfBoot into DDR for execution.

Design for NXP P1021

  1. First stage loader (4KB) resides in first block of NAND flash.
  2. Boot ROM loads this into eLBC FCM RAM and maps it to 0xFFFF0000 and sets PC to 0xFFFFFFFC
  3. wolfBoot boot assembly configures TLB MMU, LAW, DDR3 and UART (same for all boot stages)
  4. First stage loader relocates itself to DDR (to free FCM to allow reading NAND)
  5. First stage loader reads entire wolfBoot from NAND flash to DDR and jumps to it
  6. wolfBoot loads and parses the header for application partition
  7. wolfBoot performs SHA2-384 hash of the application
  8. wolfBoot performs a signature verification of the hash
  9. wolfBoot loads the application into DDR and jumps to it

First Stage Loader (stage 1) for NXP P1021 PPC

A first stage loader is required to load the wolfBoot image into DDR for execution. This is because only 4KB of code space is available on boot. The stage 1 loader must also copy iteslf from the FCM buffer to DDR (or L2SRAM) to allow using of the eLBC to read NAND blocks.

Flash Layout for NXP P1021 PPC (default)

Building wolfBoot for NXP P1021 PPC

By default wolfBoot will use powerpc-linux-gnu- cross-compiler prefix. These tools can be installed with the Debian package gcc-powerpc-linux-gnu (sudo apt install gcc-powerpc-linux-gnu).

The make creates a factory_wstage1.bin image that can be programmed at 0x00000000, that include the first stage loader, wolfBoot and a signed test application.

To build the first stage load, wolfBoot, sign a custom application and assembly a single factory image use:

cp config/examples/nxp-p1021.config .config

# build the key tools
make keytools

make clean
make stage1

# Build wolfBoot (with or without DEBUG)
make DEBUG=1 wolfboot.bin
# OR
make wolfboot.bin

# Sign application

    0x01F00000 fsl_qe_ucode_1021_10_A.bin

Debugging NXP P1021 PPC

Use V=1 to show verbose output for build steps. Use DEBUG=1 to enable debug symbols.

The first stage loader must fit into 4KB. To build this in release and assemble a debug version of wolfBoot use the following steps:

make clean
make stage1
make DEBUG=1 wolfboot.bin
make DEBUG=1 test-app/image_v1_signed.bin
make factory_wstage1.bin

NXP QorIQ T2080 PPC

The NXP QorIQ T2080 is a PPC e6500 based processor (four cores). Support has been tested with the NAII 68PPC2.

Example configurations for this target are provided in:

Design NXP T2080 PPC

The QorIQ requires a Reset Configuration Word (RCW) to define the boot parameters, which resides at the start of the flash (0xE8000000).

The flash boot entry point is 0xEFFFFFFC, which is an offset jump to wolfBoot initialization boot code. Initially the PowerPC core enables only a 4KB region to execute from. The initialization code (src/boot_ppc_start.S) sets the required CCSR and TLB for memory addressing and jumps to wolfBoot main().

RM 4.3.3 Boot Space Translation

"When each core comes out of reset, its MMU has one 4 KB page defined at 0x0_FFFF_Fnnn. Each core begins execution with the instruction at effective address 0x0_FFFF_FFFC. To get this instruction, the core's first instruction fetch is a burst read of boot code from effective address 0x0_FFFF_FFC0."

Building wolfBoot for NXP T2080 PPC

By default wolfBoot will use powerpc-linux-gnu- cross-compiler prefix. These tools can be installed with the Debian package gcc-powerpc-linux-gnu (sudo apt install gcc-powerpc-linux-gnu).

The make creates a factory.bin image that can be programmed at 0xE8080000

cp ./config/examples/nxp-t2080-68ppc2.config .config
make clean
make keytools
make

Or each make component can be manually built using:

make wolfboot.elf
make test-app/image_v1_signed.bin

If getting errors with keystore then you can reset things using make distclean.

Building QorIQ Linux SDK fsl-toolchain

To use the NXP cross-compiler:

Find "QorIQ Linux SDK v2.0 PPCE6500 IMAGE.iso" on nxp.com and extract the "fsl-toolchain". Then run the script to install to default location /opt/fsl-qoriq/2.0/.

Then add the following lines to your .config:

CROSS_COMPILE?=/opt/fsl-qoriq/2.0/sysroots/x86_64-fslsdk-linux/usr/bin/powerpc-fsl-linux/powerpc-fsl-linux-

NXP MCXA153

NXP MCXA153 is a Cortex-M33 microcontroller running at 96MHz. The support has been tested using FRDM-MCXA153 with the onboard MCU-Link configured in JLink mode.

This requires the MCXA SDK from the NXP MCUXpresso SDK Builder. We tested using SDK_2.14.2_MCXA153 and placed into ../NXP/MCXA153 by default (see .config or set with MCUXPRESSO). MCUXpresso SDK Builder

MCX A: Configuring and compiling

Copy the example configuration file and build with make:

cp config/examples/mcxa.config .config`

MCX A: Loading the firmware

The NXP Freedom MCX A board debugger comes loaded with MCU Link, but it can be updated to JLink. See https://docs.nxp.com/bundle/UM12012/page/topics/Updating_MCU_Link_firmware.html

Use JLinkExe tool to upload the initial firmware: JLinkExe -if swd -Device MCXA153

At the Jlink prompt, type:

loadbin factory.bin 0
Downloading file [factory.bin]...
J-Link: Flash download: Bank 0 @ 0x00000000: Skipped. Contents already match
O.K.

Reset or power cycle board.

Once wolfBoot has performed validation of the partition and booted the D15 Green LED on P3_13 will illuminate.

MCX A: Testing firmware update

  1. Sign the test-app with version 2:
./tools/keytools/sign --ecc256 test-app/image.bin wolfboot_signing_private_key.der 2
  1. Create a bin footer with wolfBoot trailer "BOOT" and "p" (ASCII for 0x70 == IMG_STATE_UPDATING):
echo -n "pBOOT" > trigger_magic.bin
  1. Assembly new factory update.bin:
./tools/bin-assemble/bin-assemble \
  update.bin \
    0x0    test-app/image_v2_signed.bin \
    0xAFFB trigger_magic.bin
  1. Flash update.bin to 0x13000 (loadbin update.bin 0x13000). The D15 RGB LED Blue P3_0 will show if version is > 1.

Note: For alternate larger scheme flash update.bin to 0x14000 and place trigger_magic.bin at 0x9FFB.

MCX A: Debugging

Simulated

You can create a simulated target that uses files to mimic an internal and optionally an external flash. The build will produce an executable ELF file wolfBoot.elf. You can provide another executable ELF as firmware image and it will be executed. The command-line arguments of wolfBoot.elf are forwarded to the application. The example application test-app\app_sim.c uses the arguments to interact with libwolfboot.c and automate functional testing. You can find an example configuration in config/examples/sim.config.

An example of using the test-app/sim.c to test firmware update:

cp ./config/examples/sim.config .config
make

# create the file internal_flash.dd with firmware v1 on the boot partition and
# firmware v2 on the update partition
make test-sim-internal-flash-with-update
# it should print 1
./wolfboot.elf success get_version
# trigger an update
./wolfboot.elf update_trigger
# it should print 2
./wolfboot.elf success get_version
# it should print 2
./wolfboot.elf success get_version

Note: This also works on Mac OS, but objcopy does not exist. Install with brew install binutils and make using OBJCOPY=/usr/local/Cellar//binutils/2.41/bin/objcopy make.

Renesas RX65N

RX65N target board:

Can route UART Serial output to PC3 via PMOD1-IO0 at Pin 9. This requires an external TTL UART to USB adapter. You will need to set CFLAGS_EXTRA+="-DDEBUG_UART_SCI=3" in .config. In the renesas-rx.c uart_init these port mode and port function select settings are needed:

/* Configure PC3/PC2 for UART */

Debugging Renesas RX65N

Create a new "Renesas Debug" project. Choose the "E2 Lite" emulator and the built wolfboot.elf. After project is created open the "Debug Configuration" and change the debugger interface from "JTAG" to "FINE". Run debug and it will stop in the "reset" code in boot_renesas_start.S. If using Big Endian change endianess mode in "Debugger -> Debug Tool Settings -> Memory Endian -> Big Endian".

Renesas RX72N

Tested on the RX72N ENVISION KIT (HMI development kit for IoT systems). This includes an onboard E2 Lite emulator.

The Renesas RX72N is supported either natively with "make" or through e2Studio. If using e2Studio see Readme.md.

Renesas RA6M4

This example for Renesas RA6M4 demonstrates a simple secure firmware update by wolfBoot. A sample application v1 is securely updated to v2. Both versions behave the same except displaying its version of v1 or v2. They are compiled by e2Studio and running on the target board.

In this demo, you may download two versions of application binary file by Renesas Flash Programmer. You can download and execute wolfBoot by e2Studio debugger. Use a USB connection between PC and the board for the debugger and flash programmer.

Renesas RZN2L

This example demonstrates simple secure firmware boot from external flash by wolfBoot. A sample application v1 is securely loaded into internal RAM if there is not higher version in update region. A sample application v2 will be loaded when it is in update region.Both versions behave the same except blinking LED Red(v1) or Yellow(v2). They are compiled by e2Studio and running on the target board.

The example uses SPI boot mode with external flash on the evaluation board. On this boot mode, the loader program, which is wolfBoot, is copied to the internal RAM(B-TCM). wolfBoot copies the application program from external flash memory to RAM(System RAM). As final step of wolfBoot the entry point of the copied application program is called if its integrity and authenticity are OK.

Operation Overview

Detailed steps can be found at Readme.md.

Qemu x86-64 UEFI

The simplest option to compile wolfBoot as a bootloader for x86-64bit machines is the UEFI mode. This mechanism requires an UEFI bios, which stages wolfBoot by running the binary as an EFI application.

The following instructions describe the procedure to configure wolfBoot as EFI application and run it on qemu using tianocore as main firmware. A GNU/Linux system built via buildroot is then authenticated and staged by wolfBoot.

Prerequisites:

On a debian-like system it is sufficient to install the packages as follows:

# for wolfBoot and others
apt install git make gcc

# for test scripts
apt install sudo dosfstools curl
apt install qemu qemu-system-x86 ovmf gnu-efi

# for buildroot
apt install file bzip2 g++ wget cpio unzip rsync bc

Configuration

An example configuration is provided in config/examples/x86_64_efi.config

Building and running on qemu

The bootloader and the initialization script startup.nsh for execution in the EFI environment are stored in a loopback FAT partition.

The script tools/efi/prepare_uefi_partition.sh creates a new empty FAT loopback partitions and adds startup.nsh.

A kernel with an embedded rootfs partition can be now created and added to the image, via the script tools/efi/compile_efi_linux.sh. The script actually adds two instances of the target systems: kernel.img and update.img, both signed for authentication, and tagged with version 1 and 2 respectively.

Compiling with make will produce the bootloader image in wolfboot.efi.

The script tools/efi/run_efi.sh will add wolfboot.efi to the bootloader loopback partition, and run the system on qemu. If both kernel images are present and valid, wolfBoot will choose the image with the higher version number, so update.img will be staged as it's tagged with version 2.

The sequence is summarized below:

cp config/examples/x86_64_efi.config .config
tools/efi/prepare_efi_partition.sh
make
tools/efi/compile_efi_linux.sh
tools/efi/run_efi.sh

               PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1,0x1)/Ata(0x0)
Press ESC in 1 seconds to skip startup.nsh or any other key to continue.

Intel x86_64 with Intel FSP support

This setup is more complex than the UEFI approach described earlier, but allows for complete control of the machine since the very first stage after poweron.

In other words, wolfBoot can run as a secure replacement of the system BIOS, thanks to the integration with the Intel Firmware Support Package (FSP). FSP provides services for target-specific initial configuration (memory and silicon initialization, power management, etc.). These services are designed to be accessed and invoked by the bootloader.

If wolfBoot is compiled with FSP support, it invokes the necessary machine-dependent binary code, which that can be obtained from the chip manufacturer.

The following variables must be set in your .config file when using this feature:

  • ARCH = x86_64
  • TARGET = A useful name for the target you want to support. You can refer to x86_fsp_qemu or kontron_vx3060_s2 for reference
  • FSP_T_BASE: the base address where the FSP-T binary blob will be loaded.
  • FSP_M_BASE: the base address where the FSP-M binary blob will be loaded.
  • FSP_S_BASE: the base address where the FSP-S binary blob will be loaded.
  • FSP_T_BIN: path to the FSP-T binary blob
  • FSP_M_BIN: path to the FSP-M binary blob
  • FSP_S_BIN: path to the FSP-S binary blob
  • WOLFBOOT_ORIGIN: the start address of wolfBoot inside the flash (flash is mapped so that it ends at the 4GB boundary)
  • BOOTLOADER_PARTITION_SIZE: the size of the partition that stores wolfBoot in the flash
  • WOLFBOOT_LOAD_BASE: the address where wolfboot will be loaded in RAM after the first initialization phase

While Intel FSP aims to abstract away specific machine details, you still need some machine-specific code. Current supported targets are QEMU and the TigerLake based Kontron VX3060-S2 board. Refer to the Intel Integration Guide of the selected silicon for more information.

Note:

  • This feature requires NASM to be installed on the machine building wolfBoot.

Running on 64-bit QEMU

Two example configuration files are available: config/examples/x86_fsp_qemu.config and config/examples/x86_fsp_qemu_seal.config. Both will try to load a 64bit ELF/Multiboot2 payload from the emulated sata drive. The second one is an example of configuration that also do measure boot and seal/unseal secrets using a TPM.

A test ELF/Multiboot2 image is provided as well. To test config/examples/x86_fsp_qemu.config use the following steps:

# Copy the example configuration for this target
cp config/examples/x86_fsp_qemu.config .config

# Create necessary Intel FSP binaries from edk2 repo
./tools/scripts/x86_fsp/qemu/qemu_build_fsp.sh

# build wolfboot
make

# make test-app
make test-app/image.elf

# make_hd.sh sign the image, creates a file-based hard disk image with GPT table and raw partitions and then copies the signed images into the partitions.
IMAGE=test-app/image.elf tools/scripts/x86_fsp/qemu/make_hd.sh

# run wolfBoot + test-image
./tools/scripts/x86_fsp/qemu/qemu.sh

Sample boot output using config/examples/x86_fsp_qemu.config

wolfBoot QEMU x86 FSP test app

Running on QEMU with swtpm (TPM emulator)

First step: clone and install swtpm, a TPM emulator that can be connected to qemu guest VMs. This TPM emulator will create a memory-mapped I/O device.

A small note is that config/examples/x86_fsp_qemu_seal.config showcases two different key ecc size of 384 and 256 of authentication for image verification and TPM sealing respectively.

The correct steps to run the example:

# copy the example configuration for this target
cp config/examples/x86_fsp_qemu_seal.config .config

# create necessary Intel FSP binaries from edk2 repo
tools/scripts/x86_fsp/qemu/qemu_build_fsp.sh

# make keytools and tpmtools
make keytools
make tpmtools

# create two keys, one for signing the images (ecc384) and one to seal/unseal secret into the TPM (ecc256)
./tools/keytools/keygen --force --ecc384 -g wolfboot_signing_private_key.der --ecc256 -g tpm_seal_key.key

# build wolfboot, manually add ECC256 for TPM
make CFLAGS_EXTRA="-DHAVE_ECC256"

# compute the value of PCR0 to sign with TPM key
PCR0=$(python ./tools/scripts/x86_fsp/compute_pcr.py --target qemu wolfboot_stage1.bin | tail -n 1)

# sign the policy
./tools/tpm/policy_sign -ecc256 -key=tpm_seal_key.key  -pcr=0 -pcrdigest=$PCR0

# install the policy
./tools/scripts/x86_fsp/tpm_install_policy.sh policy.bin.sig

# make test-app
make test-app/image.elf

# make_hd.sh sign the image, creates a file-based hard disk image with GPT table and raw partitions and then copy the signed images into the partitions.
IMAGE=test-app/image.elf SIGN=--ecc384 tools/scripts/x86_fsp/qemu/make_hd.sh

# run wolfBoot + test-image, use -t to emulate a TPM (requires swtpm)
./tools/scripts/x86_fsp/qemu/qemu.sh -t

For more advanced uses of TPM, please check TPM.md to configure wolfBoot according to your secure boot strategy.

Running on Kontron VX3060-S2

A reference configuration and helper scripts are provided to run wolfBoot on Kontron VX3060-S2 board. A flash dump of the original Flash BIOS is needed. To compile a flashable image run the following steps:

cp config/examples/kontron_vx3060_s2.config .config
./tools/scripts/x86_fsp/tgl/tgl_download_fsp.sh
make tpmtools
./tools/scripts/x86_fsp/tgl/assemble_image.sh -k
make CFLAGS_EXTRA="-DHAVE_ECC256"
./tools/scripts/x86_fsp/tgl/assemble_image.sh -n /path/to/original/flash/dump

they produce a file named final_image.bin inside the root folder of the repository that can be directly flashed into the BIOS flash of the board.

Infineon AURIX TC3xx

wolfBoot supports the AURIX TC3xx family of devices, and provides a demo application targeting the TC375 AURIX LiteKit-V2.

For detailed instructions on using wolfBoot with the AURIX TC3xx, please refer to IDE/AURIX/README.md

wolfBoot can also integrate with wolfHSM on AURIX TC3xx devices, offloading cryptographic operations and key storage to the AURIX HSM core. For more information on using wolfBoot with wolfHSM on AURIX devices, please contact us at facts@wolfssl.com.
