Subject: [PATCH] docs: improve description of secure attribute for loader
|
|
|
ab145e |
element
|
|
|
ab145e |
|
|
|
ab145e |
The original text was not explaining what this attribute actually
|
|
|
ab145e |
controls and could have been interpreted as a control switch for the
|
|
|
ab145e |
Secure boot feature in firmwares.
