Verification succeeds if the embedded chain anchors to *any* root in the list (absent NVM IDs are silently skipped). The list length must not exceed `WOLFHSM_CFG_CERT_MAX_VERIFY_ROOTS` (default 8).

+- `hsmNvmIdCertRootCAList` / `hsmNvmIdCertRootCACount`: Array of NVM IDs identifying the trusted root CA certificate(s) and its element count. Only used when building with `WOLFBOOT_CERT_CHAIN_VERIFY`. The chain in the firmware header may anchor to any of the listed roots; the count is bounded by `WOLFHSM_CFG_CERT_MAX_VERIFY_ROOTS` (default 8). Each in-tree HAL provides a default of `{ 1 }`; override the list via the `WOLFHSM_NVM_ROOT_CA_LIST` build option, which takes a comma-separated initializer (no quotes, no spaces) and is propagated to the HAL as `-DWOLFBOOT_WOLFHSM_NVM_ROOT_CA_LIST=...`. Set it in `.config` (e.g. `WOLFHSM_NVM_ROOT_CA_LIST=1,2,3`) or on the make command line (`make WOLFHSM_NVM_ROOT_CA_LIST=1,2,3 ...`).
