If FIP format is used it means that TF-A/BL2 is going to parse it and verify the hashes/signatures according to TF-A scheme. The packager will embed in a FIP components like Secure Monitor, Secure hypervisor, Secure partitions code and manifests. All in all, U-Boot will be representing a small percentage of the functionality offered by secure firmware as a whole and it feels odd to make another implementation that is more "accessory" rather than critical for the U-Boot community. It may be a good idea but I wish you could explain it. > > This allows images to be created containing a FIP, which itself contains > > > various binaries.
