Copyright (c) 2022 Linaro Limited + +FWU Multi Bank Updates in U-Boot +================================ + +The FWU Multi Bank Update feature implements the firmware update +mechanism described in the PSA Firmware Update for A-profile Arm +Architecture specification[1]. Certain aspects of the Dependable +Boot specification[2] are also implemented. The feature provides a +mechanism to have multiple banks of updatable firmware images and for +updating the firmware images on the non-booted bank. On a successful +update, the platform boots from the updated bank on subsequent +boot. The UEFI capsule-on-disk update feature is used for performing +the actual updates of the updatable firmware images. + +The bookkeeping of the updatable images is done through a structure +called metadata. Currently, the FWU metadata supports identification +of images based on image GUIDs stored on a GPT partitioned storage +media. There are plans to extend the metadata structure for non GPT +partitioned devices as well. + +Accessing the FWU metadata is done through generic API's which are +defined in a driver which complies with the u-boot's driver model. A +new uclass UCLASS_FWU_MDATA has been added for accessing the FWU +metadata. Individual drivers can be added based on the type of storage +media, and it's partitioning method. Details of the storage device +containing the FWU metadata partitions are specified through a U-Boot +specific device tree property `fwu-mdata-store`. Please refer to +U-Boot `doc `__ for +the device tree bindings. + +Enabling the FWU Multi Bank Update feature +------------------------------------------ + +The feature can be enabled by specifying the following configs:: + + CONFIG_EFI_CAPSULE_ON_DISK=y + CONFIG_EFI_CAPSULE_FIRMWARE_MANAGEMENT=y + CONFIG_EFI_CAPSULE_FIRMWARE=y + CONFIG_EFI_CAPSULE_FIRMWARE_RAW=y + + CONFIG_FWU_MULTI_BANK_UPDATE=y + CONFIG_CMD_FWU_METADATA=y + CONFIG_DM_FWU_MDATA=y + CONFIG_FWU_MDATA_GPT_BLK=y + CONFIG_FWU_NUM_BANKS= + CONFIG_FWU_NUM_IMAGES_PER_BANK= + +in the .config file + +The first group of configs enable the UEFI capsule-on-disk update +functionality. The second group of configs enable the FWU Multi Bank +Update functionality. Please refer to the section +:ref:`uefi_capsule_update_ref` for more details on generation of the +UEFI capsule. + +Setting up the device for GPT partitioned storage +------------------------------------------------- + +Before enabling the functionality in U-Boot, certain changes are +required to be done on the storage device. Assuming a GPT partitioned +storage device, the storage media needs to be partitioned with the +correct number of partitions, given the number of banks and number of +images per bank that the platform is going to support. Each updatable +firmware image will be stored on an separate partition. In addition, +the two copies of the FWU metadata will be stored on two separate +partitions. + +As an example, a platform supporting two banks with each bank +containing three images would need to have 2 * 3 = 6 parititions plus +the two metadata partitions, or 8 partitions. In addition the storage +media can have additional partitions of non-updatable images, like the +EFI System Partition(ESP), a partition for the root file system etc. + +When generating the partitions, a few aspects need to be taken care +of. Each GPT partition entry in the GPT header has two GUIDs:: + + *PartitionTypeGUID* + *UniquePartitionGUID* + +The PartitionTypeGUID value should correspond to the *image_type_uuid* +field of the FWU metadata. This field is used to identify a given type +of updatable firmware image, e.g. u-boot, op-tee, FIP etc. This GUID +should also be used for specifying the `--guid` parameter when +generating the capsule. + +The UniquePartitionGUID value should correspond to the *image_uuid* +field in the FWU metadata. This GUID is used to identify images of a +given image type in different banks. + +Similarly, the FWU specifications defines the GUID value to be used +for the metadata partitions. This would be the PartitionTypeGUID for +the metadata partitions. + +When generating the metadata, the *image_type_uuid* and the +*image_uuid* values should match the *PartitionTypeGUID* and the +*UniquePartitionGUID* values respectively. + +Performing the Update +--------------------- + +Once the storage media has been partitioned and populated with the +metadata partitions, the UEFI capsule-on-disk update functionality can +be used for performing the update. Refer to the section +:ref:`uefi_capsule_update_ref` for details on how the update can be +invoked. + +On a successful update, the FWU metadata gets updated to reflect the +bank from which the platform would be booting on subsequent boot. + +Based on the value of bit15 of the Flags member of the capsule header, +the updated images would either be accepted by the u-boot's UEFI +implementation, or by the Operating System. If the Operating System is +accepting the firmware images, it does so by generating an empty +*accept* capsule. The Operating System can also reject the updated +firmware by generating a *revert* capsule. The empty capsule can be +applied by using the exact same procedure used for performing the +capsule-on-disk update. + +The task of accepting the different firmware images, post an update +may be done by multiple, separate components in the Operating +System. To help identify the firmware image that is being accepted, +the accept capsule passes the image GUID of the firmware image being +accepted. The relevant code in u-boot then sets the Accept bit of the +corresponding firmware image for which the accept capsule was +found. Only when all the firmware components in a bank have been +accepted does the platform transition to the regular state from trial +state. + +The revert capsule on the other hand does not pass any image GUID, +since reverting any image of the bank has the same result of the +platform booting from the other bank on subsequent boot. + +Generating an empty capsule +--------------------------- + +The empty capsule can be generated using the mkeficapsule utility. To +build the tool, enable:: + + CONFIG_TOOLS_MKEFICAPSULE=y + +Run the following commands to generate the accept/revert capsules:: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ ./tools/mkeficapsule \ + [--fw-accept --guid ] | \ + [--fw-revert] \ + + +Links +----- + +* [1] https://developer.arm.com/documentation/den0118/a/ - FWU Specification +* [2] https://git.codelinaro.org/linaro/dependable-boot/mbfw/uploads/6f7ddfe3be24e18d4319e108a758d02e/mbfw.pdf - Dependable Boot Specification diff --git a/doc/develop/uefi/index.rst b/doc/develop/uefi/index.rst index 7e65dbc5d5..e26b1fbe05 100644 --- a/doc/develop/uefi/index.rst +++ b/doc/develop/uefi/index.rst @@ -13,3 +13,4 @@ can be run an UEFI payload. uefi.rst u-boot_on_efi.rst iscsi.rst + fwu_updates.rst diff --git a/doc/develop/uefi/uefi.rst b/doc/develop/uefi/uefi.rst index 941e427093..536b278dd9 100644 --- a/doc/develop/uefi/uefi.rst +++ b/doc/develop/uefi/uefi.rst @@ -277,6 +277,8 @@ Enable ``CONFIG_OPTEE``, ``CONFIG_CMD_OPTEE_RPMB`` and ``CONFIG_EFI_MM_COMM_TEE` [1] https://optee.readthedocs.io/en/latest/building/efi_vars/stmm.html +.. _uefi_capsule_update_ref: + Enabling UEFI Capsule Update feature ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
