Secure Boot for Linux Systems

Notes:

  1. Because the Rockchip platform's default key signing does not support extboot format firmware, the USE_EXTBOOT=n option must be added to the defconfig in the device/rockchip repository to disable extboot compilation. If extboot compilation is not disabled, uboot will load normally, but the kernel boot process will fail.

  2. Rollback-index rollback settings are not supported.

  3. The configuration of RK_SECURITY_BURN_KEY involves burning the key during the spl phase. This burning operation is a one-time event; the chip will melt after burning, and it cannot be changed subsequently.

  4. If the kernel is not signed when the uboot firmware is already signed, uboot will perform a signature check on the kernel. If the check fails, it will automatically enter loader burning mode.
