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 its 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_RAW=y + + CONFIG_FWU_MULTI_BANK_UPDATE=y + CONFIG_FWU_MDATA=y + CONFIG_FWU_MDATA_GPT_BLK=y + CONFIG_FWU_NUM_BANKS= + CONFIG_FWU_NUM_IMAGES_PER_BANK= + +in the .config file + +By enabling the CONFIG_CMD_FWU_METADATA config option, the +fwu_mdata_read command can be used to check the current state of the +FWU metadata structure. + +The first group of configuration settings 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, a GPT partitioned storage +device is required. 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 a separate partition. In addition, the two copies +of the FWU metadata will be stored on two separate partitions. These +partitions need to be created at the time of the platform's +provisioning. + +As an example, a platform supporting two banks with each bank +containing three images would need to have 2 * 3 = 6 partitions 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. An example list of images on the storage medium would be + +* FWU metadata 1 +* U-Boot 1 +* OP-TEE 1 +* FWU metadata 2 +* OP-TEE 2 +* U-Boot 2 +* ESP +* rootfs + +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. + +The FWU specification defines the GUID value to be used for the +metadata partitions. This would be the PartitionTypeGUID for the +metadata partitions. Similarly, the UEFI specification defines the ESP +GUID to be be used. + +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 from trial state to regular +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. + +In the scenario that bit15 of the Flags member of the capsule header +has not been set, the images being updated are accepted by the +U-Boot's UEFI firmware implementation by default, on successful +updation of the image. + +Generating an empty capsule +--------------------------- + +The empty capsule can be generated using the mkeficapsule utility.
