Manish V Badarkhe e0ac845e25 docs: deprecate Arm TC2 FVP platform
Arm has made the strategic decision to deprecate the TC2 platform. As
a result, software development and the creation of fast models for TC2
have been officially discontinued. The TC2 platform, now considered
obsolete, has been succeeded by the TC3 and TC4 platforms. Notably,
both TC3 and TC4 are already integrated into TF-A, with TC3 included
in the CI repository. Work to add CI support for TC4 is currently in
progress.

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.
