Flashing Asymmetric Boot Chain Images

You can flash an asymmetric chain by using the following command:

python3 ./flash_bsp_images.py -b <board> -P ${PWD}/<board>/<output_directory> --asymmetric

If debugging information is required, specify the -D option.

For example,

${NV_WORKSPACE}/p3710-10-a04-merge/tools/flashtools/bootburn/flash_bsp_images.py -b p3710-10-a04 -D -P ${NV_WORKSPACE}/p3710-10-a04-merge/642-63710-0010-000_TS4/ --asymmetric

To flash an asymmetric BSP using a unique key per SoC, use the flashing command as follows:

./flash_bs_images.py -b <board> -P <output_directory> --headers <header-path> --asymmetric

Note: When using asymmetric images, --asymmetric must be used. Asymmetric option informs bootburn scripts to use this image different then normal images.

For example,

${NV_WORKSPACE}/p3710-10-a04-merge/tools/flashtools/bootburn/flash_bsp_images.py -b p3710-10-a04 -D -P ${NV_WORKSPACE}/p3710-10-a04-merge/642-63710-0010-000_TS4/ --headers ${NV_WORKSPACE}/p3710-10-a04-fix-header/ --asymmetric

Where NV_WORKSPACE is the root directory that contains the BSP package and headers.
