From 24dc1d0d72fb15b155f80bcecbae362ba5140b50 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bastian Krause Date: Fri, 2 Oct 2026 17:49:02 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] fitimage.bbclass: document provider-based PKCS#11 signing Now that oe-core moved to OpenSSL 4.0, the engine API is gone. As a result uboot-mkimage's -N/--engine no longer work: Failed to sign 'signature-1' signature node in 'conf-imx6dl-riotboard.dtb' conf node uboot-mkimage Can't add hashes to FIT blob: -1 Error: Bad parameters for FIT image type Usage: uboot-mkimage [-T type] -l image -l ==> list image header information -T ==> parse image file as 'type' -q ==> quiet Document the provider-based setup instead: signing_create_uri_pem() wraps the role's PKCS#11 URI in a PEM file that OpenSSL loads like a key file and resolves through the PKCS#11 provider configured by signing_prepare(). mkimage looks for a key in ${FITIMAGE_SIGN_KEYDIR}/${FITIMAGE_SIGN_KEYNAME}.key, so store it there. This way the existing mkimage invocations do not need to be touched.
