5. FIRMWARE DESIGN SPECIFICATION
The device uses a generic Linux system, version 3.14.38. ARM tool chain is supplied to
compile and debug customer/user applications.
A preinstalled Core/Base Application is launched by OS at startup.
5.1 Secure boot
Below is the Boot process of the system:
Power On
The boot process begins at Power On Reset (POR) where the hardware reset
logic forces the ARM core to begin execution starting from the on-chip boot
ROM.
Boot ROM process
Boot ROM will authenticate the u-boot, and pass control to u-boot.
U-boot process
U-boot verifies the OS image, and pass control to OS.
OS process
OS starts the Core/Base daemon, and user applications.
5.2 Keys
Several security keys are used in the device, as follows. (The keys are generated by PKI tree.
All certificates are X509 format.)
CA key: This is the t o pm os t key and is only used for signing SRK certificat es.
SRK key: Super Root Key is a component of the PKI tree. SRK is an RSA key pair
which forms the start of the boot-time authentication chain. The hash of the SRK public
key is embedded in the process or using OTP hardware. SRK privat e key is held by the
CA.
Page 11 of 18
CSF key: This key is a subordinate key of the SRK key, and is used to verify the CSF
data. CSF (Command Sequence File) is a binary data structure interpreted by the HAB
to guide authentication operations.
IMG key: Thi s ke y is a subordinate key of the SRK key, a n d is us e d t o ve rify the u-boot
image.
OSK key: This key is a subordinate key of the SRK key, and used to verify the OS
image and the monitor daemon.
APK key: This key is a subordinate key of the SRK key, and used to verify applications.
5.3 Core/Base Application
Core/Base application is used to update the OS and/or add/update/remove application(s)
through Ethernet.
Interface: Ethernet, port 14000.
