Breno Matheus Lima dfe9ff9cc7 doc: imx: hab: Reorganize High Assurance Boot documentation
The current High Assurance Boot document README.mxc_hab
include details for the following features in a single file:

- HAB Secure Boot
- HAB Encrypted Boot

Split HAB documentation in a specific directory for a cleaner
documentation structure, subsequent patches will include more
content in HAB documentation.

1. Setup U-Boot Image for Encrypted Boot
----------------------------------------
An authenticated U-Boot image is used as starting point for
Encrypted Boot. The image is encrypted by i.MX Code Signing
Tool (CST). The CST replaces only the image data of
u-boot-dtb.imx with the encrypted data. The Initial Vector Table,
DCD, and Boot data, remains in plaintext.
The image data is encrypted with a Encryption Key (DEK).
Therefore, this key is needed to decrypt the data during the
booting process. The DEK is protected by wrapping it in a Blob,
which needs to be appended to the U-Boot image and specified in
the CSF file.
The DEK blob is generated by an authenticated U-Boot image with
the dek_blob cmd enabled. The image used for DEK blob generation
needs to have the following configurations enabled in Kconfig:
CONFIG_SECURE_BOOT=y
CONFIG_CMD_DEKBLOB=y
Note: The encrypted boot feature is only supported by HABv4 or
greater.
The dek_blob command then can be used to generate the DEK blob of
a DEK previously loaded in memory. The command is used as follows:
dek_blob <DEK address> <Output Address> <Key Size in Bits>
example: dek_blob 0x10800000 0x10801000 192
The resulting DEK blob then is used to construct the encrypted
U-Boot image. Note that the blob needs to be transferred back
to the host.Then the following commands are used to construct
the final image.
cat u-boot-dtb.imx csf-u-boot.bin > u-boot-signed.imx
objcopy -I binary -O binary --pad-to <blob_dst> --gap-fill=0x00 \
u-boot-signed.imx u-boot-signed-pad.bin
cat u-boot-signed-pad.imx DEK_blob.bin > u-boot-encrypted.imx
NOTE: u-boot-signed.bin needs to be padded to the value
equivalent to the address in which the DEK blob is specified
in the CSF.
