[PATCH] Manual page cleanups and expansion

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Stephen Warren <swarren@xxxxxxxxxx>

Expand documentation of --pkc, --gen-signed-msgs, and
--download-signed-msgs.

Clean up various capitalization issues.

Fix a typo, in the code too.

 .SH DESCRIPTION
-This program is used to send code to a Tegra device in recovery mode.
-It also supports locked devices with pkc private key, such as Jetson
-tk1 board. It is not capable of flashing firmware to a device, but can
-be used to download firmware that is then capable of flashing.  For
-example in ChromeOS tegrarcm is used to download a special build of
-u-boot to the target Tegra device with a payload that it then flashes
-to the boot device.
+This program is used to send code to a Tegra device in recovery mode. It
+supports both unlocked devices, and those locked with a PKC (private key). It
+is not capable of flashing firmware to a device, but can be used to download
+firmware that is then capable of flashing.  For example in ChromeOS tegrarcm is
+used to download a special build of U-Boot to the target Tegra device with a
+payload that it then flashes to the boot memory device.
+
+Devices with PKC enabled may be handled in two different ways:
+
+.IP 1.
+Data may be signed on-the-fly, during communication with the Tegra device, by
+providing the \-\-pkc options. This method is the simplest, but requires access
+to the device's PKC during the download process.
+
+.IP 2.
+The signing and download steps may be separated. Signed data may first be
+prepared offline, without requiring access to a Tegra device, using the
+\-\-gen\-signed\-msgs option. The signed data may later be sent to a Tegra
+device using the \-\-download\-signed\-msgs option.
+
+Both of these steps require use of the \-\-gen\-signed\-msgs option to indicate
+where to write/read the signed messages. This option provides a base filename,
+to which various extensions will be appended, to form the final filenames for
+the various signed data/messages.
+
+This method is more complex, but allows separation of the download and signing
+processes. For example, a highly secure signing machine could generate the
+signed messages and pass them to a factory system for download to the Tegra
+device.
