optee.bin optee.capsule
+Or alternatively, the capsule can be generated through a make target
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ make capsule
+
+Issuing the above make command requires specifying the capsule
+parameters through a config file instead. The Kconfig symbol
+CONFIG_EFI_CAPSULE_CFG_FILE is to be used for specifying the path to
+the config file.
+
+The config file describes the parameters that are used for generating
+one or more capsules. The parameters for a given capsule file are
+specified within curly braces, in the form of "key:value" pairs. All
+the parameters that are currently supported by the mkeficapsule tool
+can be specified through the config file.
+
+The following are some example payload parameters specified through
+the config file.

+ pub-key-cert: Path to the public key crt file used for capsule signing
+ payload: Path to the capsule payload file
+ capsule: Path to the output capsule file that is generated
+ hardware-instance: Hardware Instance value
+ monotonic-count: Monotonic count value
+ capsule-type: Specifies capsule type. normal(default), accept or revert
+ oemflags: 16bit Oemflags value to be used(populated in capsule header)
