Added a new structure esp_app_desc_t. It has info about firmware:
version, secure_version, project_name, time/date build and IDF version.
Added the ability to add a custom structure with a description of the firmware.
The esp_app_desc_t is located in fixed place in start of ROM secotor. It is located after structures esp_image_header_t and esp_image_segment_header_t.
app_version is filed from PROJECT_VER variable (if set in custom make file) or PROJECT_PATH/version.txt or git repo (git describe).
Add API to get app_desc from partition.
If zero-overhead loop buffer is enabled, under certain rare conditions
when executing a zero-overhead loop, the CPU may attempt to execute an invalid instruction. Work around by disabling the buffer.
ROM definition of `abort` was removed in 9240bbb. The old definition
resulted in a panic due to a jump to a null pointer (abort member in
ROM stub table was zero). The new definition triggers a debug
exception if JTAG is connected, or goes into an infinite loop to be
reset by the WDT.
When CONFIG_ESP32_RTCDATA_IN_FAST_MEM is enabled, RTC data is placed
into RTC_FAST memory region, viewed from the data bus. However the
bootloader was missing a check that this region should not be
overwritten after deep sleep, which caused .rtc.bss segment to loose
its contents after wakeup.
Allows OTA updates to be secured via signature checks, without requiring the overhead or complexity
of a full secure boot implementation.
Uses same signing mechanisms (build system and/or espsecure.py as Secure Boot).
Requires:
* [ ] More testing
* [ ] Documentation
Added bootloader_common_get_sha256_of_partition() and esp_partition_get_sha256() - get or calculate SHA-256
digest for app and data partitions.
Added bootloader_sha256_hex_to_str() - helps to print SHA-256 digest
Added esp_partition_check_identity() - compares two partitions by SHA-256 digest
Refactoring a function esp_image_load() in bootloader space to esp_image_verify() and
bootloader_load_image(). Old name function esp_image_load is deprecated
and will remove in V4.0 version.
spi_flash/sim: Fix error test_host. Add stub for bootloader_common_get_sha256_of_partition in sim/stubs
If we have the partition table without any ota_apps but in ota_data have
valide entry, in this case we get an error(hang). This commit fix this
case. If bs->app_count is zero when selecting the factory app.
Closes https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/issues/2218
* Fixes some "noreturn" functions in bootloader utils which did return (causing fatal CPU
exceptions).
* Marks bootloader entry as "noreturn", preventing "user code done" from stalling boot
Partial fix for https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/issues/1814 TW20016
(Comprehensive fix for this issue will be enabling WDT during bootloader, coming shortly.)
Because address space is mapped in 64KB pages, it was possible for unauthenticated data after the
app .bin to become mapped into the flash cache address space.
This problem is solved by 2 changes:
* "esptool elf2image --secure-pad" will pad the image so that the signature block ends close to the
64KB boundary. Due to alignment constraints it will be 12 bytes too short after signing (but
with flash encryption, these 12 bytes are still encrypted as part of the last block and can't be
arbitrarily changed).
* By default, secure boot now requires all app partitions to be a multiple of 64KB in size.
components/spi_flash/partition.c: In function 'load_partitions':
components/spi_flash/partition.c:179:66: error: argument to 'sizeof' in 'strncpy' call is the same expression as the source; did you mean to use the size of the destination? [-Werror=sizeof-pointer-memaccess]
strncpy(item->info.label, (const char*) it->label, sizeof(it->label));

Moved useful functions from wrapped assert functions, because option `CONFIG_OPTIMIZATION_ASSERTIONS_DISABLED=y` will remove this functions.
Closes https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/issues/2068
IDF had two defines ESP_PARTITION_TABLE_OFFSET and ESP_PARTITION_TABLE_ADDR. They were the same and equal by 0x8000.
A define ESP_PARTITION_TABLE_ADDR was removed from IDF.
A define ESP_PARTITION_TABLE_OFFSET depends on option CONFIG_PARTITION_TABLE_OFFSET in Kconfig.
Now using only #define ESP_PARTITION_TABLE_OFFSET CONFIG_PARTITION_TABLE_OFFSET
Allows you to move the partition table, it gives more space for the bootloader.
Added a new utility - parttool.py. This utility can search for the offset and/or size of the partitions by name and type/subtype. Use for getting APP_OFFSET and PHY_DATA_OFFSET.
The linker(esp32.bootloader.ld) made changes that allow you to write a custom bootloader code more.
