futility1
Unified firmware utility
Usage
futility [options]
COMMAND
[args ...]
Overview
futility is the unified firmware utility, which will eventually replace most of the distinct verified boot tools formerly produced by the vboot_reference package.
When symlinked under the name of one of those previous tools, it should fully implement the original behavior. It can also be invoked directly as futility, followed by the original name as the first argument.
Global options:
-
--vb1 -
Use only vboot v1.0 binary formats
-
--vb21 -
Use only vboot v2.1 binary formats
-
--debug -
Be noisy about what's going on
The following commands are built-in:
create
|
Create a keypair from an RSA .pem file |
|---|---|
dump_fmap
|
Display FMAP contents from a firmware image |
dump_kernel_config
|
Prints the kernel command line |
gbb_utility
|
Manipulate the Google Binary Block (GBB) |
help
|
Show a bit of help (you're looking at it) |
load_fmap
|
Replace the contents of specified FMAP areas |
pcr
|
Simulate a TPM PCR extension operation |
show
|
Display the content of various binary components |
sign
|
Sign / resign various binary components |
vbutil_firmware
|
Verified boot firmware utility |
vbutil_kernel
|
Creates, signs, and verifies the kernel partition |
vbutil_key
|
Wraps RSA keys with vboot headers |
vbutil_keyblock
|
Creates, signs, and verifies a keyblock |
verify
|
Verify the signatures of various binary components |
version
