meta-swupdate, Yocto layer for deploy tool ========================================== This layer's purpose is to add support for a deployment mechanism of Yocto's images based on swupdate project. Layer dependencies ------------------ This layer depends on: URI: git://github.com/openembedded/meta-openembedded.git subdirectory: meta-oe Image hashing ------------- During creation of the update file, occurrences of @IMAGE (where IMAGE is an image filename) are replaced with the sha256 hash of the image. SWU image signing ------------ To enable signing: Set SWUPDATE_SIGNING = "1" Set SWUPDATE_PRIVATE_KEY to the full path of private key file sw-description is signed with the private key and the signature is writen to sw-description.sig which is included in the SWU file. Encrypted private keys are not currently supported since a secure mechanism must exist to provide the passphrase.
