There's once again been a lot of great work done, and aside from the usual rounds of cleanups, bug fixes and new SoC/board support or improvements (your favorite vendor has likely added, improved, or both, their current families support), one thing I want to call out here is the ability to do verified boot. For more details, take a look at doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt but in short, you can now cryptographically sign your boot image (kernel, device tree, ramdisk) and verify them at run time. There's still work to be done to make it easier to tie things to a TPM (it's just scriptable today), but hey, there it is. One might even say this is one of those technical features that makes companies chose something other than U-Boot.. -- Tom -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
