From: Robin van der Gracht <robin at protonic.nl>
Introduce a mechanism to permanently lock OTP eFuses after programming by
adding a new `writelock` parameter. When `writelock` is enabled, the
driver:
- Programs the OTP fuse using `BSEC_SMC_PROG_OTP`.
- If successful, triggers `BSEC_SMC_WRLOCK_OTP` (OP-TEE:
`STM32_SIP_SVC_BSEC_WRLOCK_OTP`) to permanently disable further
modifications to the OTP word.
Security Concern:
Without this lock mechanism, an OTP word can still be altered by OR-ing
additional bits onto the existing value, as STM32 BSEC OTP fuses only
allow one-way bit transitions from 0 to 1. This is a potential security
risk when dealing with keys or sensitive configuration values, as an
attacker could modify certain OTP bits without fully replacing the
original value.
Warning! Write lock is enabled globally per BSEC device:
- While `writelock=1`, all writes via the BSEC device will be
permanently locked.
- The user must avoid writing unintended values during this period,
as they will become irrevocable.
Example Use Case:
To program and permanently lock an OTP word:
bsec0.permanent_write_enable=1
bsec0.writelock=1
mw -l -d /dev/stm32-bsec 0x00000170+4 $some_data
bsec0.permanent_write_enable=0
bsec0.writelock=0
After execution, the OTP at address `0x170` will be permanently
write-locked.
