Seputil

seputil is an Apple internal application (arm64). It is used to communicate with the Secure Enclave and it's processor - the SEP. The utility ramrod also uses seputil to update the firmware of the SEP. seputil is contained in the ramdisk of H6SURamDisk.dmg (which itself is located in the  folder of 7.0.4 or 7.0.5 on iPhone5s) and there in. You just have strip off the first 0x1b (27) bytes to make the dmg readable.

seputil has the following commands:

seputil: seputil [--wait] --load seputil: seputil '' seputil: seputil seputil: seputil: Valid words: seputil:    --ping        Send a PING operation to the SEP OS seputil:     --load        Load as the SEP runtime firmware seputil:    --restore     Load as the SEP runtime firmware in restore mode seputil:    --restore+art Load as the SEP runtime firmware in restore mode with ART seputil:    --wait        Pause for kernel driver to load before failing seputil:    --preflight   Pre-flight load/restore firmware against ART to pre-check for boot failures seputil:    --log         Dump the mailbox message log seputil:    --rom status  Get the ROM status seputil:    --rom tz0     Send a ROM TZ0 command seputil:    --rom nop     Send a ROM NOP command seputil:    --rom nonce   Send a ROM nonce request seputil:    --new-nonce   Request new SEP/OS nonce seputil:    --kill-nonce  Request invalidate SEP/OS nonce seputil:    --art get     Dump current ART from Memory seputil:    --art set     Persist the supplied ART to storage seputil:    --art clear   Clear the persisted ART seputil:    --art ctrtest Counter self-test (DESTRUCTIVE - WILL BRICK DEVICE) seputil:    --sleep       Sleep the SEP NOW! seputil:    --nap         Nap the SEP NOW! seputil:    --pingflood   Ping SEP endlessly seputil:    --clkgate     Enable SEP clock gating seputil:    --get   Read obj and write to stdout seputil:    --put   Read stdin and write to obj seputil:    --boot-check  Check whether a firmware might be bootable WRT the current ART seputil:    --dump-fw     Dump measurements of firmware file seputil:  Bare words on the commandline are sent to the SEP as a console command
