➡️ Please first read this Linux Embedded article : <todo_insert_link>

This demonstration is inspired by this article from Krys Kwiatkowski.
This version aims to show how to implement a TLS client-server with BoringSSL on QEMU ARMv8 emulator. Then how to delegate to OP-TEE the signing of the client's private RSA key.

This demonstration needs the official OP-TEE QEMUv8 emulator and BoringSSL built for host PC and ARMv8 target. Just execute the following script (may take an hour):

./initial_setup.sh

It also prepare needed files for TLS server and client.

The following script will generate all necessary key-pairs :

./generate_keys.sh

Several ARMv8 binaries are needed :

• the client program
• the trusted application (TA)
• the admin program

Then please execute the following script :

./build_programs.sh

Run the following script to import all needed files into QEMU :

./qemu_import.sh

Then start the QEMU environment in a terminal :

cd optee-qemuv8/build
make \
 QEMU_VIRTFS_ENABLE=y \
 QEMU_VIRTFS_HOST_DIR=$PWD/../../qemu_hostfs/ \
 run-only

(qemu) c

c command will popup two terminals, please connect to the normal world Linux with root user (no password).

In the normal world install the encrypted Trusted Application :

cd /mnt/host
mv a3a8cd17-4156-41f5-8a66-fe2643a1c93e.ta /lib/optee_armtz

As the administrator you can install the client private key into the TEE :

./admin put

Then the administrator leave the device !

rm admin client.key

On computer side launch the server (port 55555) in a terminal :

cd server
ifconfig
./server.sh

Back into QEMU normal world you can now try the client :

cd /mnt/host
./client <IP>:55555
