Firmware Update requires an X509v3 certificate which contains
hashes for SCP_BL2U, BL2U and NS_BL2U images as extensions.
This patch extends the Chain of Trust definition in the
'cert_create' tool to include the Firmware Update certificate
and the required extensions (including command line options).
A new field in the extension structure will be used to indicate
that the extension is optional. In the case of an image hash
extension, this field will tell the tool that the hash should
be included in the certificate, but filled with zeros.

This patch introduces a new API that allows to specify command
line options in the Chain of Trust description. These command line
options may be used to specify parameters related to the CoT (i.e.
keys or certificates), instead of keeping a hardcoded list of
options in main.c.

The certificate generation tool currently checks if all command
line options required to create all certificates in the CoT have
been specified. This prevents using the tool to create individual
certificates when the whole CoT is not required.
This patch improves the checking function so only those options
required by the certificates specified in the command line are
verified.

This patch reworks the certificate generation tool to follow a data
driven approach. The user may specify at build time the certificates,
keys and extensions defined in the CoT, register them using the
appropiate macros and the tool will take care of creating the
certificates corresponding to the CoT specified.

Some Linux distributions include an OpenSSL library which has been
built without ECDSA support. Trying to build the certificate
generation tool on those distributions will result in a build error.
This patch fixes that issue by including ECDSA support only if
OpenSSL has been built with ECDSA. In that case, the OpenSSL
configuration file does not define the OPENSSL_NO_EC macro. The tool
will build successfully, although the resulting binary will not
support ECDSA keys.

This patch extends the 'cert_create' tool to support ECDSA keys
to sign the certificates. The '--key-alg' command line option
can be used to specify the key algorithm when invoking the tool.
Available options are:
* 'rsa': create RSA-2048 keys (default option)
* 'ecdsa': create ECDSA-SECP256R1 keys
The TF Makefile has been updated to allow the platform to specify
the key algorithm by declaring the 'KEY_ALG' variable in the
platform makefile.
The behaviour regarding key management has changed. After applying
this patch, the tool will try first to open the keys from disk. If
one key does not exist or no key is specified, and the command line
option to create keys has been specified, new keys will be created.
Otherwise an error will be generated and the tool will exit. This
way, the user may specify certain keys while the tool will create
the remaining ones. This feature is useful for testing purposes
and CI infrastructures.
The OpenSSL directory may be specified using the build option
'OPENSSL_DIR' when building the certificate generation tool.
Default is '/usr'.

The cert_create tool calculates the hash of each BL image and includes
it as an ASN.1 OCTET STRING in the corresponding certificate extension.
Without additional information, the firmware running on the platform
has to know in advance the algorithm used to generate the hash.
This patch modifies the cert_create tool so the certificate extensions
that include an image hash are generated according to the following
ASN.1 structure:
DigestInfo ::= SEQUENCE {
digestAlgorithm AlgorithmIdentifier,
digest OCTET STRING
}
AlgorithmIdentifier ::= SEQUENCE {
algorithm OBJECT IDENTIFIER,
parameters ANY DEFINED BY algorithm OPTIONAL
}
The PolarSSL module has been updated to extract the image hash
from the certificate extension according to this structure.

Update the top level makefile to allow platform ports to exist in
subdirectories at any level instead of one level under `plat/`. The
makefile recursively searches for all files called `platform.mk` in
all subdirectories of `plat/`. The directory containing
`platform.mk` is the platform name. Platform names must be unique
across the codebase.
Replace usage of HELP_PLATFORMS in the Makefile with PLATFORMS since
these are both used to report the same information back to the user.
Update the TSP and cert_create tool makefiles in a similar way
to support a deeper platform port directory structure.
Also add PLAT_<plat_name> as a define passed through the top level
makefile to the source files, to allow build time variation in common
platform code.

This patch replaces SHA1 by SHA256 in the 'cert_create' tool, so
certificate signatures are generated according to the NSA Suite B
cryptographic algorithm requirements.
Documentation updated accordingly.

This patch adds a tool that generates all the necessary elements
to establish the chain of trust (CoT) between the images.
The tool reads the binary images and signing keys and outputs the
corresponding certificates that will be used by the target at run
time to verify the authenticity of the images.
Note: the platform port must provide the file platform_oid.h. This
file will define the OIDs of the x509 extensions that will be added
to the certificates in order to establish the CoT.
