DESCRIPTION
===========

The GBB sub-command allows for the printing and manipulation of the GBB flag state.

Options
-------

\--help

:   Prints brief usage information.

-g, \--get

:   Puts the GBB command into GET mode. (default)

-s, \--set

:   Puts the GBB command into SET mode.

-c, \--create=hwid_size,rootkey_size,bmpfv_size,recoverykey_size

:   Puts the GBB command into CREATE mode. Create a GBB blob by given size list.

GET Mode Options
----------------

Get (read) from image_file or flash, with following options:

\--flash

:   Read from and write to flash, ignore file arguments.

### Report Fields

The following options are available for reporting different types of information
from image_file or flash. The default is returning hwid. There could be multiple
fields to be reported at one time.

\--hwid

:   Report hardware id (default).

        hardware_id: EXAMPLE

\--flags

:   Report header flags.

        flags: 0x00000000

\--digest

:  Report digest of hwid (>= v1.2)

        digest: DIGEST_STRING

-e, \--explicit

:   Report header flags by name. This implies **\--flags**.

        flags: 0x00000000
        VB2_GBB_FLAG_FLAG_A
        VB2_GBB_FLAG_FLAG_B

### File Names to Export

-k, \--rootkey=FILE

:   File name to export Root Key.

-b, \--bmpfv=FILE

:   File name to export Bitmap FV.

-r, \--recoverykey=FILE

:   File name to export Recovery Key.

SET Mode Options
----------------

Set (write) to flash or file, with following options:

\--flash

:   Read from and write to flash, ignore file arguments.

-o, \--output=FILE

:   New file name for ouptput.

If no output file is specified, futility gbb will write back to image_file.

### Values to be Changed

There could be multiple values to be changed at one time.

\--hwid=HWID

:   The new hardware id to be changed.

\--flags=FLAGS

:   The new (numeric) flags value or +/- diff value.

### New File Names of Output

-k, \--rootkey=FILE

:   File name of new Root Key.

-b, \--bmpfv=FILE

:   File name of new Bitmap FV.

 -r  \--recoverykey=FILE

 :  File name of new Recovery Key.

FLASH Options
-------------

In GET and SET mode, the following options modify the behaviour of flashing.
Presence of any of these implies \--flash.

-p, \--programmer=PRG

:   Change AP (host) flashrom programmer

\--ccd_without_servod

:   Flash via Case Closed Debugging (CCD) without servod (similar to
    `--fast --force --wp=0 -p=raiden_debug_spi`). Note this
    may be unsafe on some boards, and using `--servo` is preferred whenever
    possible.

\--emulate=FILE

:   Emulate system firmware using file

\--servo

:   Flash using Servo (v2, v4, micro, ...)

\--servo_port=PRT

:   Override servod port, implies \--servo
