[U-Boot] [PATCH 2/3] env: Implement support for encrypting environment

Marek Vasut marex at denx.de
Wed Mar 5 19:59:51 CET 2014


Add function which allows encrypting the whole environment block with
AES-128-CBC. The key for the environment is retrieved by env_aes_cbc_get_key()
function, which must be implemented on a per-board basis.

NOTE: We have one style issue here, but we must keep using
      __attribute__((aligned(16))) here as we're including
      this include/environment.h from tools as well.
