No description
![]() HW_CONFIG is the hardware description consumed primarly by the Linux kernel, and for the FVP platform, TF-A runtime firmware (BL31). Due to both needing it, two copies of this file are made in Trusted DRAM and SRAM. The copy in Trusted DRAM is a workaround stemming from memory constraints in SRAM. We temporarily map the range of memory in Trusted DRAM into BL31 to allow it to consume the configuration. In principle, however, BL31 execution should be limited to SRAM, hence reduce the maximum size of the HW_CONFIG to 16KB in order to accommodate it in SRAM. This is possible since in practice, the HW_CONFIG on FVP is only about 11KB. Change-Id: Idb5dc0637b402562b7177a2b4e2464c4f3f67da7 Signed-off-by: Harrison Mutai <harrison.mutai@arm.com> |

Trusted Firmware-A ================== Trusted Firmware-A (TF-A) is a reference implementation of secure world software for `Arm A-Profile architectures`_ (Armv8-A and Armv7-A), including an Exception Level 3 (EL3) `Secure Monitor`_. It provides a suitable starting point for productization of secure world boot and runtime firmware, in either the AArch32 or AArch64 execution states. TF-A implements Arm interface standards, including: - `Power State Coordination Interface (PSCI)`_ - `Trusted Board Boot Requirements CLIENT (TBBR-CLIENT)`_ - `SMC Calling Convention`_ - `System Control and Management Interface (SCMI)`_ - `Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI)`_ The code is designed to be portable and reusable across hardware platforms and software models that are based on the Armv8-A and Armv7-A architectures. In collaboration with interested parties, we will continue to enhance TF-A with reference implementations of Arm standards to benefit developers working with Armv7-A and Armv8-A TrustZone technology. Users are encouraged to do their own security validation, including penetration testing, on any secure world code derived from TF-A.
