2013-06-26image: Add support for signing of FIT configurationsSimon Glass
While signing images is useful, it does not provide complete protection against several types of attack. For example, it it possible to create a FIT with the same signed images, but with the configuration changed such that a different one is selected (mix and match attack). It is also possible to substitute a signed image from an older FIT version into a newer FIT (roll-back attack). Add support for signing of FIT configurations using the libfdt's region support. Please see doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more information. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
