U-Boot for Zynq is capable to authenticate and decrypt bitstream/images from the command line. Both zynqrsa/zynqaes commands works getting the image from the DDR memory, allowing the images be loaded from wide variety of sources (flash memory, TFTP sever...).
The images have to be generated using bootgen with proper authentication and encryption keys.

U-Boot configuration
By default this feature is disabled in the default U-Boot/Petalinux configurations, so both CONFIG_CMD_ZYNQ_RSA and CONFIG_CMD_ZYNQ_AES needs to be enabled in the U-Boot configuration file.

zynqaes - Zynq AES decryption
Usage:
zynqaes zynqaes [operation type] <srcaddr> <srclen> <dstaddr> <dstlen> -
Decrypts the encrypted image present in source address
and places the decrypted image at destination address
zynqaes operations:
zynqaes <srcaddr> <srclen> <dstaddr> <dstlen>
zynqaes load <srcaddr> <srclen>
zynqaes loadp <srcaddr> <srclen>
if operation type is load or loadp, it loads the encrypted
full or partial bitstream on to PL respectively. If no valid
operation type specified then it loads decrypted image back
to memory and it doesnt support loading PL bistsream |

Zynq> zynqrsa
zynqrsa - Zynq RSA verfication
Usage:
zynqrsa zynqrsa <baseaddr> - Verifies the authenticated and encrypted zynq images |

Encrypted images
Create a BIF file to be used for the encrypted image generation process and use bootgen to generate it. Split option is required for bootgen in order to get encrypted image without boot header, this way the dummy partition will include the boot header and the image will be splited in a encrypted way.

Note: This feature does not work for U-Boot released bellow 2018.1Authenticated images
Create a BIF file to be used for authenticated image generation process and use bootgen to generate it. The partitions authenticated by U-Boot can be specified by the attribute partition_owner, and load attribute to set the address where authenticated partition will be loaded. The current implementation requires at least two partition be present before the first U-Boot owned partition.
