Image signing takes an image in binary or Intel Hex format intended for Slot 0
|
||||
and adds a header and trailer that the bootloader is expecting:
|
||||
|
||||
usage: imgtool.py sign [-h] -k filename --align ALIGN -v VERSION -H
|
||||
HEADER_SIZE [--pad PAD] [--rsa-pkcs1-15]
|
||||
infile outfile
|
||||
|
||||
positional arguments:
|
||||
infile
|
||||
outfile
|
||||
|
||||
optional arguments:
|
||||
-h, --help show this help message and exit
|
||||
-k filename, --key filename
|
||||
--align ALIGN
|
||||
-v VERSION, --version VERSION
|
||||
-H HEADER_SIZE, --header-size HEADER_SIZE
|
||||
--included-header Image has gap for header
|
||||
--pad PAD Pad image to this many bytes, adding trailer magic
|
||||
--rsa-pkcs1-15 Use old PKCS#1 v1.5 signature algorithm
|
||||
Usage: imgtool.py sign [OPTIONS] INFILE OUTFILE
|
||||
|
||||
Create a signed or unsigned image
|
||||
|
||||
Options:
|
||||
-k, --key filename
|
||||
--align [1|2|4|8] [required]
|
||||
-v, --version TEXT [required]
|
||||
-H, --header-size INTEGER [required]
|
||||
--pad-header Add `--header-size` zeroed bytes at the beginning
|
||||
of the image
|
||||
-S, --slot-size INTEGER Size of the slot where the image will be written
|
||||
[required]
|
||||
--pad Pad image to --slot-size bytes, adding trailer
|
||||
magic
|
||||
-M, --max-sectors INTEGER When padding allow for this amount of sectors
|
||||
(defaults to 128)
|
||||
--overwrite-only Use overwrite-only instead of swap upgrades
|
||||
-h, --help Show this message and exit.
|
||||
|
||||
The main arguments given are the key file generated above, a version
|
||||
field to place in the header (1.2.3 for example), the alignment of the
|

|
@ -74,16 +76,16 @@ flash device in question, and the header size.
|
|||
|
||||
The header size depends on the operating system and the particular
|
||||
flash device. For Zephyr, it will be configured as part of the build,
|
||||
and will be a small power of two. By default, the header will be
|
||||
prepended to the image. If `--included-header` is given, the image
|
||||
must start with header-size bytes of zeros, and the header will be
|
||||
overwritten over these bytes.
|
||||
and will be a small power of two. By default, the Zephyr build system will
|
||||
already prepended a zeroed header to the image. If another build system is
|
||||
in use that does not automatically add this zeroed header, `--pad-header` can
|
||||
be passed and the `--header-size` will be added by imgtool.
|
||||
|
||||
The `--slot-size` argument is required and used to check that the firmware
|
||||
does not overflow into the swap status area (metadata). If swap upgrades are
|
||||
not being used, `--overwrite-only` can be passed to avoid adding the swap
|
||||
status area size when calculating overflow.
|
||||
|
||||
The optional --pad argument will place a trailer on the image that
|
||||
indicates that the image should be considered an upgrade. Writing
|
||||
this image in slot 1 will then cause the bootloader to upgrade to it.
|
||||
|
||||
Lastly, the --rsa-pkcs1-15 will cause the tool to use the older,
|
||||
deprecated pkcs#1 v1.5 signing algorithm when using RSA. This can be
|
||||
enabled in the bootloader as wel, and may be needed if you are using
|
||||
an older version of the bootloader.
