Hi,
I have just started to learn about Hafnium and I am following Getting Started steps of it.
I built DTB with
/dts-v1/;
/ {
hypervisor {
compatible = "hafnium,hafnium";
vm1 {
debug_name = "Linux VM";
kernel_filename = "vmlinuz";
ramdisk_filename = "initrd.img";
};
};
};
And after setting up RAM disk, I was able to boot into Linux VM with following command:
qemu-system-aarch64 -M virt,gic_version=3 -cpu cortex-a57 -nographic -machine virtualization=true -kernel out/reference/qemu_aarch64_clang/hafnium.bin -initrd initrd.img -append "rdinit=/sbin/init"
But I am unable to understand whether Hafnium and Linux are running in Normal World or Secure World
or At which Level (EL1, EL2, S-EL1 or S-EL2...) Hafnium and Linux are running.
Can I please get some help in understanding this?
Regards,
Rahul
Hello team,
Currently the amount of memory allocated for GICR frames is determined by the number of supported CPUs. However, the GIC redistributor might have more frames than the number of PEs. In such a case, it is possible that the core index constructed from GICR_TYPER register points to a non-existent PE. For such a case, the GIC discovery and init sequence should move to the next redistributor frame. Today, the code asserts if there are holes in the CPU topology or if GICR_FRAMES > MAX_CPUS.
Downstream Tegra platforms provide more GICR frames than number of CPUs and require the support posted to gerrit [1]. Request the team to review and post feedback.
Thanks.

Hi João,
I am still having trouble getting my kernel to run using a secure partition. For some reason, my kernel only runs when I give it access to all the devices, but if I do this Linux is unable to run. Linux gives me stage-2 page faults. Is there any way around thiss? Here is my dts file for my kernel. Is there something I can change here to make this work?
f
I thought there is emulation for basic hardware features like timers and interrupt controllers. How can I use them in my secure partition?

Hi Friederich,
It seems the problem you're facing has to do with Stage 2 translation faults. The UART needs to be mapped in the S2 translation of the respective partition that tries to use it. The given platform that you're using is likely to have more than one UART device assigned with different memory regions. Each device should be assigned to only one partition/kernel. Unmapping the UART from Linux shouldn't help on its own, as you're simply refraining Linux from using the UART. Depending on how you configured your Linux partition, it might still try to access it at a certain address and hit a page fault at Stage 2 translation.
If you are using Hafnium with FF-A partitions, you can map different UART devices through the FF-A partition manifest, as shown in the following link: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/plugins/gitiles/hafnium/hafnium/+/refs/h…
The support for this (I think) might depend on the version that you're currently using.
Hafnium owns a UART device, that makes (indirectly) accessible to the VMs through an HVC call. Hafnium receives the bytes to write to the UART TX buffers through the GP registers through the HVC call interface. If you're trying to log the behaviour of your partition, this might be enough, and probably the easiest option to start with.
Find the HVC call function helper: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/plugins/gitiles/hafnium/hafnium/+/refs/h…
You can look for uses of the referred call.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you have further questions.
Best regards,
João Alves

Subject: [Hafnium] How to stop linux from preventing access to serial?
Hi,
I am working with the hafnium hypervisor. I am running Linux alongside
another kernel, and I need access to the serial device UART on the other
kernel. When I am trying to output serial from the other kernel, hafnium
says there is a stage 2 page fault. I tried disabling the serial device in
linux, but now I am getting a different result. When I load the hafnium
driver, I get a page fault. For some reason, if the device is not in
/proc/iomem it throws an error.
How can I use my device in my kernel and disable it in Linux. Linux is the
primary VM and my kernel is the secondary VM.
Thanks,
Friedrich

Thanks Olivier. For NVIDIA, the main goal is to have the flexibility to use an out of tree toolchain and remove the hard dependency on the prebuilts folder. Internally, we have pruned the prebuilts to remove dtc, googletest too.
With vacations, we have not verified the latest patches - will test and report in a week.

Subject: Re: [Hafnium] .git submodules increase hafnium code size
External email: Use caution opening links or attachments
Hi Bo, Raghu,
I knew this change would be a bit controversial :) We've had the following main queries:
1/ submodule(s) size is too large (see Varun's very first message in this thread). Starting with prebuilts, it turns out that llvm+gnu toolchains are top contributors. The mentioned change (on top of earlier clang migration changes) introduced the ability to remove a hard dependency to those toolchains.
2/ Ability to build on arm64 host. The change removes the compiler/linker/tools hard coded paths to the x86 prebuilt toolchain from the build system.
3/ toolchain is hardcoded to a fixed version and buried into the project along with sources. This fits developer habits but it is not suitable to a production environment.
Addressing few of the concerns below:
> The default built at the top of tree seems broken. Typing make does not work any more. I tried to export the clang path and I see issues with standard headers...docs/GettingStarted is incomplete?
This is the glitch I expected to happen when pulling latest changes. Hence the reason for the earlier heads up on the ML. Hopefully this recovers after cleaning the tree once, or restarting from a freshly cloned tree.
> I'm not sure I like the idea of removing the prebuilts. We need one tool chain that we know is supported and tested with to create reproducible builds.
ATM the CI still points to the hafnium prebuilt toolchain. Hence builds are still 'reproducible'. It could be proposed that the CI environment itself provides the toolchain.

I get the idea, but we have two orthogonal asks (use an external toolchain and remove from prebuilts, or keep in prebuilt but clone conditionally). The .gitmodules does not provide this flexibility AFAIK.
I was thinking of using some partial clone command like below omitting prebuilts:
git submodule update --init driver/linux project/reference third_party/dtc third_party/googletest third_party/linux
(but this doesn't look great from an UX perspective).
> for reference platforms like FVP, the toolchain should be a part of

Not sure this is a hard dependency. Comparing with TF-A (or other firmware projects), the toolchain is certainly not held within the tree.
The developer or the CI environment provides the toolchain to build the project.
> The current method was ideal but it seems like some latest changes have broken the dev flow...
Ideal for a developer sticking to the provided fixed-version android-based prebuilt toolchain, and building on an x86 host.
Not ideal if one needs to build on arm64, or in a production build when hafnium is considered one component among many others within a (yocto-like) distribution.
> I agree on the point that keeping prebuilts brings benefits, but the build system should be flexible enough such that an out-of-tree toolchain can be easily selected.
This is what this first set of changes provide.

Olivier.

Hi,
Can someone help me figure this out? I am trying to send a message from my
Linux primary VM to a secondary VM, but for some reason ffa_msg_send keeps
on failing and I keep getting an EAGAIN error: resource temporarily
unavailable.
Any suggestions?
Best,
Friedrich

Subject: Re: [Hafnium] .git submodules increase hafnium code size
Hi Bo, Raghu,
I knew this change would be a bit controversial :)
We've had the following main queries:
1/ submodule(s) size is too large (see Varun's very first message in this thread). Starting with prebuilts, it turns out that llvm+gnu toolchains are top contributors. The mentioned change (on top of earlier clang migration changes) introduced the ability to remove a hard dependency to those toolchains.
2/ Ability to build on arm64 host. The change removes the compiler/linker/tools hard coded paths to the x86 prebuilt toolchain from the build system.
3/ toolchain is hardcoded to a fixed version and buried into the project along with sources. This fits developer habits but it is not suitable to a production environment.
Addressing few of the concerns below:
> The default built at the top of tree seems broken. Typing make does not work any more. I tried to export the clang path and I see issues with standard headers...docs/GettingStarted is incomplete?
This is the glitch I expected to happen when pulling latest changes. Hence the reason for the earlier heads up on the ML. Hopefully this recovers after cleaning the tree once, or restarting from a freshly cloned tree.
> I'm not sure I like the idea of removing the prebuilts. We need one tool chain that we know is supported and tested with to create reproducible builds.
ATM the CI still points to the hafnium prebuilt toolchain. Hence builds are still 'reproducible'. It could be proposed that the CI environment itself provides the toolchain.
> We can remove the dependency on the prebuilt in that it should be possible for someone to NOT require downloading the upstream tool chain if they want to use an alternate chain,
I get the idea, but we have two orthogonal asks (use an external toolchain and remove from prebuilts, or keep in prebuilt but clone conditionally). The .gitmodules does not provide this flexibility AFAIK.
I was thinking of using some partial clone command like below omitting prebuilts:
git submodule update --init driver/linux project/reference third_party/dtc third_party/googletest third_party/linux
(but this doesn't look great from an UX perspective).
> for reference platforms like FVP, the toolchain should be a part of the build
Not sure this is a hard dependency. Comparing with TF-A (or other firmware projects), the toolchain is certainly not held within the tree.
The developer or the CI environment provides the toolchain to build the project.
> The current method was ideal but it seems like some latest changes have broken the dev flow...
Ideal for a developer sticking to the provided fixed-version android-based prebuilt toolchain, and building on an x86 host.
Not ideal if one needs to build on arm64, or in a production build when hafnium is considered one component among many others within a (yocto-like) distribution.
> I agree on the point that keeping prebuilts brings benefits, but the build system should be flexible enough such that an out-of-tree toolchain can be easily selected.
This is what this first set of changes provide.
Regards,
Olivier.

I agree on the point that keeping prebuilts brings benefits, but the build system should be flexible enough such that an out-of-tree toolchain can be easily selected.

Hi all,
When data or instruction abort happens, Hafnium provides the esr_el2,
far, pc values and etc. I think this info is useful, but I want to
know how to debug with the PC value.
I know TF-A provides some dump files (e.g., bl31.dump). So, when some
panic or errors happen, I can locate the "bug instruction", its
functions, and other useful context quickly.
Will Hafnium provides similar dump files? If not, can we create them? How?
Sincerely,
Wang
Hi Varun,
Just a quick sync on what's been going since this last email.
A number of changes have been made to:
-remove the gcc dependency, hafnium now only requires clang to build.
-ability to provide a toolchain different from the one stored in prebuilt submodule (merged yesterday)
-migrated and tested with recent clang versions (was clang 9)
-ability to build on arm64 host (our need)
The prebuilt submodule still exists but the dependency to hardcoded toolchains has weakened.
I intend to tell more about those recent changes and what remains during a tech forum early next year, among:
-remove toolchains from prebuilt?
-split the hypervisor and spmc test configs into separate project/* directories
-lessen the dependency to other 3rd party projects
Regards,
Olivier.

Hi Varun,
As indicated earlier, we (Arm side) don't expect to progress on this front before Q3.
I'm gathering requirements and expect to discuss through a short presentation later in a tech forum or the ML.

Thanks Arun. We have taken the same approach. The changes I posted earlier expect all dependencies to be out of tree and provide mechanisms to pass the locations to the make system during compilation.
This is a real problem for us, and we would like a solution that works for the community too. @Olivier how should we move forward?

Hi Varun,

>> b. use a Yocto provided toolchain.

For Total Compute we wanted to skip cloning submodules (like driver/linux, linux,
dtc) as only secure_hafnium.bin was required. Basically build only reference spm.
Like: make PROJECT=reference_spm PLAT=TC this builds only secure hafnium for one platform.
There were some efforts put on 1.a and was able to build reference_spm for one platform. But Hafnium build inside yocto forced to clone all submodules (due to dependencies on prebuilt toolchains), so the changes were dropped and also the changes weren't clean enough to be upstreamed.
Regarding 1.b we didn't try hafnium build using yocto toolchain.
Thanks,
Arun

Hi Olivier,
Thanks for answering my queries.
We are looking to deploy the following use case at NVIDIA.
<snip>
-ability to build only the SPMC (not all reference targets such as qemu, rpi4, fvp) -A distribution only requiring the Hypervisor/SPMC output binary ("out/reference/.../hafnium.bin") using any toolchain (be it arm64 or x86 host, and arbitrary clang version).
<snip>
>> As you noticed, the Hafnium Hypervisor/SPMC and test environment builds are closely coupled by the use of ninja/gn flow and scripts. We intend to approach those problems in the course of Q3 in Arm OSS roadmap.
[VW] Are there any local changes to decouple hafnium from its dependencies? We can evaluate Arm;s approach against what we use internally. Our changes moved the dependencies out of the tree and passed file locations to the build system with the help of command line arguments.

Hi Varun,
We had similar requests raised internally.
1- First in context of Total Compute delivery from Arm OSS platforms:
a. ability to build only the SPMC on TC0 platform (not all reference targets such as qemu, rpi4, fvp)
b. use a Yocto provided toolchain.
@Arun, your view on how those two items were solved is beneficial to further elaborate our plans.
2- A similar request as 1.b to build Hafnium as part of a distribution on arm64 host: https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdeveloper…
In my view there are two consumers:
-A distribution only requiring the Hypervisor/SPMC output binary ("out/reference/.../hafnium.bin") using any toolchain (be it arm64 or x86 host, and arbitrary clang version).
-The Hf CI framework/automation needs the above, plus the test framework and tests (dependency on googletest, linux submodules etc). It's important to keep this item alive while trying to solve above item.
As you noticed, the Hafnium Hypervisor/SPMC and test environment builds are closely coupled by the use of ninja/gn flow and scripts.
They are using a fixed toolchain version through prebuilts to ensure builds are "reproducible", in particular with regards to the Hafnium CI.
We intend to approach those problems in the course of Q3 in Arm OSS roadmap.
As an early exploration we already have:
-clang 12 compiler upgrade. This is necessary if wiling to use any arbitrary clang version:
https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Freview.tr…
-Ability to build on arm64 host (done, internally).
-Identify the flow/script changes such that external dependencies can be used (on-going, internally).
I thought of localizing common dependencies to python/shell scripts by the use of definition files included in the mentioned scripts. This is only an early investigation, I will check how this intersects the changes you provided.

Olivier.

Subject: [Hafnium] .git submodules increase hafnium code size
Hi,
We at NVIDIA are evaluating Hafnium. During the initial investigation, we found out that the repository size (in terms of MB) is huge. This is mostly because of the "git submodules" used by the project. This is a great way to deliver Hafnium with its dependencies in one go.
But we think that the size can be trimmed by moving the toolchain, linux folder, googletest and dtc compiler out, leaving just the Hafnium code in the project. This way, companies like us can pick and choose instead of having to use everything. In a bid to ease the pain internally and only use the Hafnium code base we have crafted the following changes:
1. hafnium: support external projects (I10a07de3) * Gerrit Code Review (trustedfirmware.org)<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Freview.tr…>
2. hafnium: build with dtc and googletest out of tree (I057c9ad6) * Gerrit Code Review (trustedfirmware.org)<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Freview.tr…>
3. build: support external toolchain (Iafd029c1) * Gerrit Code Review (trustedfirmware.org)<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Freview.tr…>
This series does not have the patch to use an out of tree linux codebase. I assume these patches wont be acceptable in their current state, so would like to know how the community plans to handle this situation.
The code size is a real concern for us, as we already have copies of the dependencies in our codebase, so have no use for these duplicates.
Thanks.
