![]() Most of the macros in build_macros.mk get lazily evaluated. That's mostly fine, except for the fact that the `uppercase` macro needs to spawn a subshell to get its output. And the target for every file requires calling `uppercase` many, MANY, times, thrashing performance on even the most trivial of make commands. We can be a little clever and only call `uppercase` a handful of times and then pass around the already uppercased strings. The same is true about the verbosity augmentation variables. Simply changing them to simply expanded variables allows for them to be pre-processed and then used over and over again. `make realclean` is a pretty good benchmark for this as it doesn't do much else but must process all the rules, like every other make command. On a clean checkout of TF-A on an Intel Xeon Gold 5218 (i.e. slow single-core) workstation, that command used to take about 7 seconds. With this patch it takes about 0.5.

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.
