help
In reflashable secure bootloader mode, a hardware key is derived from the signing key (with SHA-256) and can be written to efuse
with espefuse.py.
Normally this is a 256-bit key, but if 3/4 Coding Scheme is used on the device then the efuse key is truncated to 192 bits.
This configuration item doesn't change any firmware code, it only changes the size of key binary which is generated at build time.

- The flash encryption key is stored in efuse key block 1, internal to the ESP32 chip. By default, this key is read- and write-protected so software cannot access it or change it.
- By default, the Efuse Block 1 Coding Scheme is "None" and a 256 bit key is stored in this block. On some ESP32s, the Coding Scheme is set to 3/4 Encoding (CODING_SCHEME efuse has value 1) and a 192 bit key must be stored in this block. See ESP32 Technical Reference Manual section 20.3.1.3 *System Parameter coding_scheme* for more details. The algorithm operates on a 256 bit key in all cases, 192 bit keys are extended by repeating some bits (:ref:`details <flash-encryption-algorithm>`). The coding scheme is shown in the ``Features`` line when ``esptool.py`` connects to the chip, or in the ``espefuse.py summary`` output.
- The `flash encryption algorithm` is AES-256, where the key is "tweaked" with the offset address of each 32 byte block of flash. This means every 32 byte block (two consecutive 16 byte AES blocks) is encrypted with a unique key derived from the flash encryption key.
- Although software running on the chip can transparently decrypt flash contents, by default it is made impossible for the UART bootloader to decrypt (or encrypt) data when flash encryption is enabled.

- AES-256 operates on 16 byte blocks of data. The flash encryption engine encrypts and decrypts data in 32 byte blocks, two AES blocks in series.
- AES algorithm is used inverted in flash encryption, so the flash encryption "encrypt" operation is AES decrypt and the "decrypt" operation is AES encrypt. This is for performance reasons and does not alter the effectiveness of the algorithm.
- The main flash encryption key is stored in efuse (BLOCK1) and by default is protected from further writes or software readout.
- AES-256 key size is 256 bits (32 bytes), read from efuse block 1. The hardware AES engine uses the key in reversed byte order to the order stored in the efuse block.
- If ``CODING_SCHEME`` efuse is set to 0 (default "None" Coding Scheme) then the efuse key block is 256 bits and the key is stored as-is (in reversed byte order).
- If ``CODING_SCHEME`` efuse is set to 1 (3/4 Encoding) then the efuse key block is 192 bits (in reversed byte order), so overall entropy is reduced. The hardware flash encryption still operates on a 256-bit key, after being read (and un-reversed), the key is extended by as ``key = key[0:255] + key[64:127]``.

- Each 32 byte block (two adjacent 16 byte AES blocks) is encrypted with a unique key. The key is derived from the main flash encryption key in efuse, XORed with the offset of this block in the flash (a "key tweak").
- The specific tweak depends on the setting of ``FLASH_CRYPT_CONFIG`` efuse. This is a 4 bit efuse, where each bit enables XORing of a particular range of the key bits:

- The high 19 bits of the block offset (bit 5 to bit 23) are XORed with the main flash encryption key. This range is chosen for two reasons: the maximum flash size is 16MB (24 bits), and each block is 32 bytes so the least significant 5 bits are always zero.
- There is a particular mapping from each of the 19 block offset bits to the 256 bits of the flash encryption key, to determine which bit is XORed with which. See the variable ``_FLASH_ENCRYPTION_TWEAK_PATTERN`` in the espsecure.py source code for the complete mapping.

- "secure bootloader key" is a 256-bit AES key that is stored in Efuse block 2. The bootloader can generate this key itself from the internal hardware random number generator, the user does not need to supply it (it is optionally possible to supply this key, see :ref:`secure-boot-reflashable`). The Efuse holding this key is read & write protected (preventing software access) before secure boot is enabled.
- By default, the Efuse Block 2 Coding Scheme is "None" and a 256 bit key is stored in this block. On some ESP32s, the Coding Scheme is set to 3/4 Encoding (CODING_SCHEME efuse has value 1) and a 192 bit key must be stored in this block. See ESP32 Technical Reference Manual section 20.3.1.3 *System Parameter coding_scheme* for more details. The algorithm operates on a 256 bit key in all cases, 192 bit keys are extended by repeating some bits (:ref:`details<secure-bootloader-digest-algorithm>`).
- "secure boot signing key" is a standard ECDSA public/private key pair (see :ref:`secure-boot-image-signing-algorithm`) in PEM format.
- The public key from this key pair (for signature verification but not signature creation) is compiled into the software bootloader and used to verify the second stage of booting (partition table, app image) before booting continues. The public key can be freely distributed, it does not need to be kept secret.

Configuration "Secure Boot: One-Time Flash" is the recommended configuration for production devices. In this mode, each device gets a unique key that is never stored outside the device.
However, an alternative mode :ref:`Secure Boot: Reflashable <CONFIG_SECURE_BOOTLOADER_MODE>` is also available. This mode allows you to supply a 256-bit key file that is used for the secure bootloader key. As you have the key file, you can generate new bootloader images and secure boot digests for them.

In the esp-idf build process, this 256-bit key file is derived from the app signing key generated during the generate_signing_key step above.

.. note:: Although it's possible, we strongly recommend not generating one secure boot key and flashing it to every device in a production environment. The "One-Time Flash" option is recommended for production environments.
To enable a reflashable bootloader:
1. In the ``make menuconfig`` step, select "Bootloader Config" -> "Secure Boot" -> "Reflashable".
1. In the ``make menuconfig`` step, select "Bootloader Config" -> :ref:`CONFIG_SECURE_BOOT_ENABLED` -> :ref:`CONFIG_SECURE_BOOTLOADER_MODE` -> Reflashable.
2. If necessary, set the :ref:`CONFIG_SECURE_BOOTLOADER_KEY_ENCODING` based on the coding scheme used by the device. The coding scheme is shown in the ``Features`` line when ``esptool.py`` connects to the chip, or in the ``espefuse.py summary`` output.
2. Follow the steps shown above to choose a signing key file, and generate the key file.
3. Run ``make bootloader``. A 256-bit key file will be created, derived from the private key that is used for signing. Two sets of flashing steps will be printed - the first set of steps includes an ``espefuse.py burn_key`` command which is used to write the bootloader key to efuse. (Flashing this key is a one-time-only process.) The second set of steps can be used to reflash the bootloader with a pre-calculated digest (generated during the build process).

Generate a digest from data (usually the bootloader image from flash) using the same algorithm as step 2 and compare it to a pre-calculated digest supplied in a buffer (usually read from flash offset 0x0). The hardware returns a true/false comparison without making the digest available to software. This function is available even when Efuse ABS_DONE_0 is burned.
