boot media needs to be properly constructed, i.e. it must contain a
proper Command Sequence File (CSF).
-The Initial Vector Table contains a pointer to the CSF. Please see
-doc/README.imximage for how to prepare u-boot.imx.
+The CSF itself is generated by the i.MX High Assurance Boot Reference
+Code Signing Tool.

-The CSF itself is being generated by Freescale HAB tools.

CONFIG_SECURE_BOOT currently enables only an additional command
'hab_status' in U-Boot to retrieve the HAB status and events. This
can be useful while developing and testing HAB.
-Commands to generate a signed U-Boot using Freescale HAB tools:
-cst --o U-Boot_CSF.bin < U-Boot.CSF
-objcopy -I binary -O binary --pad-to 0x2000 --gap-fill=0x00 \
- U-Boot_CSF.bin U-Boot_CSF_pad.bin
-cat u-boot.imx U-Boot_CSF_pad.bin > u-boot-signed.imx

-the imximage.cfg file.

-2. Using Secure Boot on i.MX6 machines with SPL support
--------------------------------------------------------
+3. Secure Boot on SPL targets
+-----------------------------
This version of U-Boot is able to build a signable version of the SPL
as well as a signable version of the U-Boot image. The signature can
be verified through High Assurance Boot (HAB).
-CONFIG_SECURE_BOOT is needed to build those two binaries.
After building, you need to create a command sequence file and use
-Freescales Code Signing Tool to sign both binaries. After creation,
+i.MX HAB Code Signing Tool to sign both binaries. After creation,
the mkimage tool outputs the required information about the HAB Blocks
parameter for the CSF. During the build, the information is preserved
in log files named as the binaries. (SPL.log and u-boot-ivt.log).
-More information about the CSF and HAB can be found in the AN4581.
