+
+Skiboot edk2-compatible Secure Variable Backend
+===============================================
+
+Overview
+--------
+
+The edk2 secure variable backend for skiboot borrows from edk2 concepts
+such as the three key hierarchy (PK, KEK, and db), and a similar
+structure. In general, variable updates must be signed with a key
+of a higher level. So, updates to the db must be signed with a key stored
+in the KEK; updates to the KEK must be signed with the PK. Updates to the
+PK must be signed with the previous PK (if any).
+
+Variables are stored in the efi signature list format, and updates are a
+signed variant that includes an authentication header.
+
+If no PK is currently enrolled, the system is considered to be in "Setup
+Mode". Any key can be enrolled without signature checks. However, once a
+PK is enrolled, the system switches to "User Mode", and each update must
+now be signed according to the hierarchy. Furthermore, when in "User
+Mode", the backend initialized the ``os-secure-mode`` device tree flag,
+signaling to the kernel that we are in secure mode.
+
+Updates are processed sequentially, in the order that they were provided
+in the update queue. If any update fails to validate, appears to be
+malformed, or any other error occurs, NO updates will not be applied.
+This includes updates that may have successfully applied prior to the
+error. The system will continue in an error state, reporting the error
+reason via the ``update-status`` device tree property.
+
+P9 Special Case for the Platform Key
+------------------------------------
+
+Due to the powerful nature of the platform key and the lack of lockable
+flash, the edk2 backend will store the PK in TPM NV rather than PNOR on
+P9 systems. (TODO expand on this)
+
+Update Status Return Codes
+--------------------------
+
+TODO, edk2 driver needs to actually return these properly first
+
+
+Device Tree Bindings
+--------------------

+TODO
