RE: U-BOOT missing Security support

[Cedrick Kukela]

Thank you
My only question now is how do I set the AES key I though this would be an 
option in kconfig as well or is this an option for the command itself?

Search under "Security commands"...

from "cmd/Kconfig":


1975 menu "Security commands"
1976 config CMD_AES
1977 bool "Enable the 'aes' command"
1978 select AES
1979 help
1980   This provides a means to encrypt and decrypt data using the AES
1981   (Advanced Encryption Standard). This algorithm uses a symetric 
key
1982   and is widely used as a streaming cipher. Different key lengths 
are
1983   supported by the algorithm but this command only supports 128 
bits
1984   at present.
1985

U-BOOT missing Security support

[Cedrick Kukela]

Hello,
I was attempting to enable CONFIG_CMD_AES and I though it would be under 
security support. Is there any reason why that option would not be enabled or 
available?
Thanks
