wolfBoot for Renesas RA6M4 with SCE
1. Overview
This example demonstrates simple secure firmware update by wolfBoot and uses Renesas SCE. A sample application v1 is securely updated to v2. Both versions behave the same except displaying its version of v1 or v2. They are compiled by e2Studio and running on the target board.
In this demo, you may download two versions of the application binary file by Renesas Flash Programmer. You can download and execute wolfBoot by e2Studio debugger. Use a USB connection between PC and the board for the debugger and flash programmer.It is only available RSA with Renesas SCE now.

2. How to build and use
This section describes about how to build wolfBoot and application and use them.
1) Key generation
It has key tools running under the host environment such as Linux, Windows or MacOS. For compiling the tools, follow the instruction described in the user manual.
$ cd <wolfBoot>
$ make keytools RENESAS_KEY=1
$ export PATH=$PATH:<wolfBoot>/tools/keytools
$ keygen --rsa2048 -g ./pri-rsa2048.der # RSA2048
The keygen tool generates a pair of private and public key with -g option.
The private key is stored in the specified file.
The public key is stored in a key store as a C source code in "src/keystore.c" so that it can be compiled and linked with wolfBoot.
If you have an existing key pair, you can use -i option to import the public key to the store.
2) Compile wolfBoot
Open project under IDE/Renesas/e2studio/RA6M4/wolfBoot with e2Studio, and build the project.
Project properties are preset for the demo. WOLFBOOT_PARTION_INFO is for debug information about partitions.
Eliminate them for operational use.
Enabled WOLFBOOT_RENESAS_SCEPROTECT expects to use Renesas SCE.

Code Origin and entry point is "0x00020200". app_RA.elf is generated under Debug.
4) Generate Wrapped Key for SCE
SCE needs to have a wrapped key for sign verification installed in advance.
This section describes how to use wolfBoot with SCE. Current version supports RSA2048.
SCE RSA Signature supports #PKCS 1, v1.5. You can generate a RSA key pair by
wolfBoot "keygen" command along with Renesas Security Key Management Tool skmt.
skmt command wraps the RAW key and generates C language initial data and a header file for an application program with SCE.
Please refer SCE User Manual for generating product provisioning.
$ export PATH:$PATH:<wolfBoot>/tools/keytools
$ export PATH:$PATH:<skmt>
$ cd <wolfBoot>
$ keygen --rsa2048 -g ./pri-rsa2048.der
$ openssl rsa -in pri-rsa2048.der -pubout -out rsa-pub2058.pem
$ skmt.exe /genkey /ufpk file=./ufpk.key /wufpk file=./ufpk.key_enc.key -key file=./pub-rsa2048.pem -mcu RA-SCE9 -keytype RSA-2048-public /output rsa_pub2048.rkey /filetype "rfp"
Please refer Renesas Manual to generate ufpk.key and upfk.key_enc.key.
After generating "rfp" format key, you can download it to flash data area by using Renesas flash programmer.
The default address for "rfp" key is 0x08001000U which is set at user_settings.h.
5) Generate Signature for app V1
You can derive the binary file (app_RA.bin) by objcopy command as follows.
$ aarch64-none-elf-objcopy.exe -O binary -j .text -j .data app_RA.elf app_RA.bin
sign command under tools/keytools generates a signature for the binary with a specified version.
It generates a file contain a partition header and application image.
The partition header contain generated signature and other control fields.
Output file name is made up from the input file name and version like app_RenesasRx01_v1.0_signed.bin.
It needs to specify --rsa2048enc option to sign the image because SCE assumes to have DigestInfo structure before hashed data.
$ sign --rsa2048enc app_RA.bin ../../../../../pri-rsa2048.der 1.0
wolfBoot KeyTools (Compiled C version)
wolfBoot version 10F0000
Update type: Firmware
Input image: app_RA.bin
Selected cipher: RSA2048ENC
Selected hash : SHA256
Public key: ./pri-rsa2048.der
Output image: app_RA_v1.0_signed.bin
Target partition id : 1
Calculating SHA256 digest...
Signing the digest...
Output image(s) successfully created.
6) Download the app V1
You can convert the binary file to hex format and download it to the board by Flash Programmer. The partition starts at "0x00020000".
$ aarch64-none-elf-objcopy.exe -I binary -O srec --change-addresses=0x00020000 app_RA_v1.0_signed.bin app_RA_v1.0_signed.hex
7) Execute initial boot
Now, you can download and start wolfBoot program by e2Studio debugger.
After starting the program, you can see the partition information as follows.
If the boot program succeeds successfully and authenticity check then start application V1.
To initially run wolfBoot project,
1.) Right-Click the Project name.
2.) Select Debug As -> Renesas GDB Hardware Debugging
3.) Select J-Link ARM. Click OK.
4.) Select R7FA6M4AF. Click OK.

Trailer Magic:
You can see the state is Success("00") and Trailer Magic number becomes "BOOT". You can also see flashing each LED light in 1 second. Notable things about V1 application, it will also call wolfBoot_update_trigger() so that it tells wolfBoot that new version exists. We are going to generate and download V2 application into "Update partition".
8) Generate Signed app V2 and download it
Similar to V1, you can sign and generate a binary of V2. The update partition starts at "0x00090000". You can download it by the flash programmer.
Updtate partition: -change-addresses=0x00090000
$ sign --rsa2048enc app_RA.bin ../../../../../pri-rsa2048.der 2.0
$ aarch64-none-elf-objcopy.exe -I binary -O srec --change-addresses=0x00090000 app_RA_v2.0_signed.bin app_RA_v2.0_signed.hex
9) Reboot and secure update to V2
The boot program checks integrity and authenticity of V2, swap the partition safely and initiates V2. You will see following message after the partition information. You can also see flashing each LED light in 5 second.
