[opentitantool] Bootstrapping efficiently via proxy The proxy potocol allow issuing SPI commands to a USB debugger connected on a remote machine running opentitansession. This can be useful for short interactions (e.g. testing TPM functionality), but for bootstrapping by writing an entire image into flash, even the slightest round-trip time will causing excruciatingly slow progress. The device may even be sensitive to SPI transaction timing, causing the bootstrapping to fail, if performed with significant latency. Considering that opentitansession compiles with all the same library functions for the SPI bootstrapping protocols as the "local" opentitantool, it would be much more efficient to transfer the image file to the proxy daemon, and let it break it down into individual SPI transactions. This CL does exactly that, by adding code to Bootstrap::update() for detecting when the Transport implementation happens to be a proxy stub, and in such case make use of a new "Transport::proxy_ops()" method call to transfer the entire image file to the proxy daemon, which in turn will invoke the same Bootstrap::update() which this time will detect a non-proxy (USB) Transport implementation, and perform SPI operations using it.

OpenTitan is an open source silicon Root of Trust (RoT) project. OpenTitan will make the silicon RoT design and implementation more transparent, trustworthy, and secure for enterprises, platform providers, and chip manufacturers. OpenTitan is administered by lowRISC CIC as a collaborative project to produce high quality, open IP for instantiation as a full-featured product. See the OpenTitan site and OpenTitan docs for more information about the project.
This repository contains hardware, software and utilities written as part of the OpenTitan project. It is structured as monolithic repository, or “monorepo”, where all components live in one repository. It exists to enable collaboration across partners participating in the OpenTitan project.
The project contains comprehensive documentation of all IPs and tools. You can access it online at docs.opentitan.org.
