tools: mkeficapsule: support generating dynamic GUIDs

2024-09-12T15:35:37Z

Add support for generating GUIDs that match those generated internally by U-Boot for capsule update fw_images when using dynamic UUIDs. Dynamic UUIDs in U-Boot work by taking a namespace UUID and hashing it with the board compatible and fw_image name. This feature just provides a way to determine the UUIDs for a particular board without having to actually boot U-Boot on it. Acked-by: Ilias Apalodimas Signed-off-by: Caleb Connolly

mkeficapsule: add FMP Payload Header

2023-06-08T07:20:36Z

Current mkeficapsule tool does not provide firmware version management. EDK II reference implementation inserts the FMP Payload Header right before the payload. It coutains the fw_version and lowest supported version. This commit adds a new parameters required to generate the FMP Payload Header for mkeficapsule tool. '-v' indicates the firmware version. When mkeficapsule tool is invoked without '-v' option, FMP Payload Header is not inserted, the behavior is same as current implementation. The lowest supported version included in the FMP Payload Header is not used, the value stored in the device tree is used instead. Signed-off-by: Masahisa Kojima Acked-by: Ilias Apalodimas

mkeficapsule: Add support for setting OEM flags in capsule header

2022-10-31T18:47:33Z

Add support for setting OEM flags in the capsule header. As per the UEFI specification, bits 0-15 of the flags member of the capsule header can be defined per capsule GUID. The oemflags will be used for the FWU Multi Bank update feature, as specified by the Dependable Boot specification[1]. Bit 15 of the flags member will be used to determine if the acceptance/rejection of the updated images is to be done by the firmware or an external component like the OS.

mkeficapsule: Add support for generating empty capsules

2022-10-31T18:47:33Z

The Dependable Boot specification[1] describes the structure of the firmware accept and revert capsules. These are empty capsules which are used for signalling the acceptance or rejection of the updated firmware by the OS. Add support for generating these empty capsules.
