+Secure Boot on i.MX6
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+For most boards, the secure boot process on i.MX6 consist of the following image
+constellation::
+
+ 0x0 +---------------------------------+
+ | Barebox Header |
+ 0x400 +---------------------------------+ -
+ | i.MX IVT Header | |
+ | Boot Data +--+ |
+ | CSF Pointer +--|-+ | Signed Area
+ +---------------------------------+ | | |
+ | Device Configuration Data (DCD) | | | |
+ 0x1000 +---------------------------------+ | | |
+ | Barebox Prebootloader (PBL) |<-+ | |
+ +---------------------------------+ | |
+ | Piggydata (Main Barebox Binary) | | |
+ +---------------------------------+ | -
+ | Command Sequence File (CSF) |<---+
+ +---------------------------------+
+
+Here the Command Sequence File signs the complete Header, PBL and piggy data
+file. This ensures that the whole barebox binary is authenticated. This is
+possible since the DDR RAM is configured using the DCD and the whole DDR memory
+area can be used to load data onto the device for authentication.
+The boot ROM loads the CSF area and barebox into memory and uses the CSF to
+verify the complete barebox binary.
+
+Boards which do require a boot via SRAM, need changes akin to the implementation
+for i.MX8MQ described in the next chapter.
+
+Secure Boot on i.MX8MQ
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+For i.MX8MQ the image has the following design::
+
+ 0x0 +---------------------------------+
+ | Barebox Header |
+ +---------------------------------+
+ | i.MX IVT Header |
+ | HDMI Firmware (Signed by NXP) |
+ +---------------------------------+ -
+ | i.MX IVT Header | |
+ | Boot Data +--+ |
+ | CSF Pointer +--|-+ |
+ +---------------------------------+ | | | Signed Area
+ | Device Configuration Data (DCD) | | | |
+ +---------------------------------+ | | |
+ | Barebox Prebootloader (PBL) |<-+ | |
+ | Piggydata Hash (SHA256) +----|-+ |
+ +---------------------------------+ | | -
+ | Command Sequence File (CSF) |<---+ |
+ +---------------------------------+ | -
+ | Piggydata (Main Barebox Binary) |<-----+ | Hashed Area
+ +---------------------------------+ -
+
+In contrast to i.MX6, for the i.MX8MQ the piggydata can not be signed together
+with the PBL binary. The DDR memory is initialized during the start of the PBL,
+previous to this no access to the DDR memory is possible. Since the Tightly
+Coupled Memory used for early startup on i.MX8MQ has only 256Kib, the whole
+barebox can't be loaded and verified at once, since the complete barebox with
+firmware has a size of ~500Kib.
+
+The bootrom loads the HDMI firmware unconditionally, since it is signed by NXP.
+Afterwards the Prebootloader (PBL) is loaded into SRAM and the bootrom proceeds
+to verify the PBL according to the Command Sequence File (CSF). The verified
+PBL initializes the ARM Trusted Firmware (TF-A) and DDR RAM. It subsequently
+loads the piggydata from the boot media and calculates the sha256sum of the
+piggydata. This is compared to the sha256sum built into the PBL during compile
+time, the PBL will only continue to boot if the sha256sum matches the builtin
+sha256sum.

+NXP Layerscape
+==============
+
+barebox has support for some of the ARM64 based Layerscape SoCs from NXP.
+
+Booting barebox
+---------------
+
+The Layerscape SoCs contain logic dubbed the Pre-Bootloader (PBL). This unit
+reads the boot medium and conducts basic IO multiplexing according to the RCW
+(Reset Configuration Word). The RCW then refers the PBL to the location of the
+Pre-Bootloader Instructions (PBI). These do basic device configuration and
+afterwards poke the barebox PBL into On-Chip SRAM.
+The barebox PBL then loads the complete barebox image and runs the PBL again,
+this time from SDRAM after it has been set up.
+
+For each board, a barebox image per supported boot medium is generated.
+They may differ in the RCW, PBI and endianess depending on the boot medium.
+
+Flashing barebox
+----------------
+
+The barebox binary is expected to be located 4K bytes into the SD-Card::
+
+ dd if=images/barebox-${boardname}-sd.image of=/dev/sdX bs=512 seek=8
+
+From there on, ``barebox_update`` can be used to flash
+barebox to the QSPI NOR-Flash if required::
+
+ barebox_update -t qspi /mnt/tftp/barebox-${global.hostname}-qspi.imaag
+
+Flashing to the eMMC is possible likewise::
+
+ barebox_update -t sd /mnt/tftp/barebox-${global.hostname}-sd.imaag
+
+.. note:: Some SoCs like the LS1046A feature only a single eSDHC.
+ In such a case, using eMMC and SD-Card at the same time is not possible.
+ Boot from QSPI to flash the eMMC.

+
+With multi-image and device trees, it's expected to have ``layerscape_defconfig``
+as sole defconfig for all Layerscape boards::
+
+ make ARCH=arm layerscape_defconfig
+
+Generated images will be placed under ``images/``.
