Masahisa Kojima07468422022-12-02 13:59:37 +090043The "eficonfig" command is used to set the UEFI boot options which are stored
44in the UEFI variable Boot#### where #### is a hexadecimal number.
Masahisa Kojimadfcf0e52022-09-12 17:33:58 +090045
Masahisa Kojima07468422022-12-02 13:59:37 +090046The command *bootefi bootmgr* can be used to boot by trying in sequence all
47boot options selected by the variable *BootOrder*.
Masahisa Kojimadfcf0e52022-09-12 17:33:58 +090048
Masahisa Kojimadfcf0e52022-09-12 17:33:58 +090049If the bootmenu is enabled, CONFIG_BOOTMENU_DISABLE_UBOOT_CONSOLE is enabled,
50and "eficonfig" is configured as preboot command, the newly added Boot Options
Masahisa Kojima07468422022-12-02 13:59:37 +090051are enumerated in the bootmenu when the user exits from the eficonfig menu.
52The user may select the entry in the bootmenu to boot the system, or follow
Masahisa Kojimadfcf0e52022-09-12 17:33:58 +090053the U-Boot configuration the system already has.

55Auto boot with the UEFI Boot Option
56'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
57
58To do auto boot according to the UEFI BootOrder variable,
59add "bootefi bootmgr" entry as a default or first bootmenu entry::
60
61 CONFIG_PREBOOT="setenv bootmenu_0 UEFI Boot Manager=bootefi bootmgr; setenv bootmenu_1 UEFI Maintenance Menu=eficonfig"

64''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
65
66The user can enroll the variables PK, KEK, db and dbx by selecting a file.
67The "eficonfig" command only accepts signed EFI Signature List(s) with an
68authenticated header, typically a ".auth" file.
69
70To clear the PK, KEK, db and dbx, the user needs to enroll a null value
71signed by PK or KEK.

73Configuration
74-------------
75
76The "eficonfig" command is enabled by::
77
78 CONFIG_CMD_EFICONFIG=y
79
80If CONFIG_BOOTMENU_DISABLE_UBOOT_CONSOLE is enabled, the user can not enter
81U-Boot console. In this case, the bootmenu can be used to invoke "eficonfig"::
82
83 CONFIG_USE_PREBOOT=y
84 CONFIG_PREBOOT="setenv bootmenu_0 UEFI Maintenance Menu=eficonfig"
85
86The only way U-Boot can currently store EFI variables on a tamper
87resistant medium is via OP-TEE. The Kconfig option that enables that is::
88
89 CONFIG_EFI_MM_COMM_TEE=y.
90
91It enables storing EFI variables on the RPMB partition of an eMMC device.
92
93The UEFI Secure Boot Configuration menu entry is only available if the following
94options are enabled::
95
96 CONFIG_EFI_SECURE_BOOT=y
97 CONFIG_EFI_MM_COMM_TEE=y
