+ =========================================
+
+ The signing steps required to produce a bootable SPL image on secure
+ K3 TI devices are the same as those performed on non-secure devices.
+ The only difference is the key is not checked on non-secure devices so
+ a dummy key is used when building U-Boot for those devices. For secure
+ K3 TI devices simply use the real hardware key for your device. This
+ real key can be set with the Kconfig option "K3_KEY". The environment
+ variable TI_SECURE_DEV_PKG is also searched for real keys when the
+ build targets secure devices.
+
+Booting of Primary U-Boot (u-boot.img)
+======================================
+
+ The SPL image is responsible for loading the next stage boot loader,
+ which is the main u-boot image. For secure TI devices, the SPL will
+ be authenticated, as described above, as part of the particular
+ device's ROM boot process. In order to continue the secure boot
+ process, the authenticated SPL must authenticate the main u-boot
+ image that it loads.
+
+ The configurations for secure TI platforms are written to make the boot
+ process use the FIT image format for the u-boot.img (CONFIG_SPL_FRAMEWORK
+ and CONFIG_SPL_LOAD_FIT). With these configurations the binary
+ components that the SPL loads include a specific DTB image and u-boot
+ image. These DTB image may be one of many available to the boot
+ process. In order to secure these components so that they can be
+ authenticated by the SPL as they are loaded from the FIT image, the
+ build procedure for secure TI devices will secure these images before
+ they are integrated into the FIT image. When those images are extracted
+ from the FIT image at boot time, they are post-processed to verify that
+ they are still secure. The outlined security-related SPL post-processing
+ is enabled through the CONFIG_SPL_FIT_IMAGE_POST_PROCESS option which
+ must be enabled for the secure boot scheme to work. In order to allow
+ verifying proper operation of the secure boot chain in case of successful
+ authentication messages like "Authentication passed" are output by the
+ SPL to the console for each blob that got extracted from the FIT image.
+
+ The exact details of the how the images are secured is handled by the
+ SECDEV package. Within the SECDEV package exists a script to process
+ an input binary image:
+
+ ${TI_SECURE_DEV_PKG}/scripts/secure-binary-image.sh
+
+ This is called as part of the u-boot build process. As the secure
+ image formats and requirements can differ between the various secure
+ SOCs from TI, this script in the SECDEV package abstracts these
+ details. This script is essentially the only required interface to the
+ TI SECDEV package for creating a u-boot.img image for secure TI
+ devices.
+
+ The SPL/u-boot code contains calls to dedicated secure ROM functions
+ to perform the validation on the secured images. The details of the
+ interface to those functions is shown in the code. The summary
+ is that they are accessed by invoking an ARM secure monitor call to
+ the device's secure ROM (fixed read-only-memory that is secure and
+ only accessible when the ARM core is operating in the secure mode).
