+.RB [\fIoptions\fP] " \fIcapsule-file\fP"
+
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+The
+\fBmkeficapsule\fP
+command is used to create an EFI capsule file for use with the U-Boot
+EFI capsule update.
+A capsule file may contain various type of firmware blobs which
+are to be applied to the system and must be placed in the specific
+directory on the UEFI system partition. An update will be automatically
+executed at next reboot.
+
+Optionally, a capsule file can be signed with a given private key.
+In this case, the update will be authenticated by verifying the signature
+before applying.
+
+\fBmkeficapsule\fP supports two different format of image files:
+.TP
+.I raw image
+format is a single binary blob of any type of firmware.
+
+.TP
+.I FIT (Flattened Image Tree) image
+format
+is the same as used in the new \fIuImage\fP format and allows for
+multiple binary blobs in a single capsule file.
+This type of image file can be generated by \fBmkimage\fP.
