Hi Palomo
All the documentation we have to share is already available, either in the upstream codebase, the wiki (https://developer.trustedfirmware.org/w/mbed-tls/) or the legacy website (https://tls.mbed.org/). Some of the info on the latter is out of date.
The core development team at Arm do not offer training. Arm has a Partner Enablement Group that does this kind of thing but I don't think they offer Mbed TLS specific training currently. I've asked them if they would consider this in future but I guess that's not going to help you in the short term.
Good luck with your learning and we'll try to answer any specific questions you have.
Regards
Dan.

Hi Gilles.
Thanks for follow my questions and attend it, regarding trainings, I want to understand how the encryption works, how the algorithms works inside the library, I can read the code and google the concepts but I want to accelerate the knowledge transfer, maybe for implement some optimization, I don't if that is possible, at the moment my PoC using uClinux works perfectly and the TLS 1.2 ir running over 80Mhz, so that is pretty awesome, but I want to learn more about encryption, maybe if you can share me some literature regarding this point?
Thank you very much and regards from Mexico!

I don't think there's any other way at the moment. The patch in my email is one possible solution, but I'm not sure if it's right, because not all platforms with a Linux kernel have /dev/urandom.
I think the best solution would be to make the existence of /dev/urandom a platform configuration option. But platform options are a little messy already, between the MBEDTLS_HAVE_xxx options, the MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_STD_xxx options, the MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_xxx_MACRO options, the MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_xxx_ALT options. And this new option wouldn't behave like any of the existing ones since it should have three settings: guess (the default, identical to the current behavior of observing preprocessor symbols like __unix__), off and on. We should figure out what to do about platform options in 3.0 before making this even more complex.
me.todo.add("collect my thoughts on simplifying platform customization and post them to the list")
Regarding trainings, my team doesn't normally do that, but there are other teams in Arm that do. What topic are you interested in?

Hello Gilles thanks for your support, yes finally I could compile the library in the architecture that I used, I forced the compilation to entry in the "if _unix_" conditional compilation, but I assume that exist another way to do this. Do you have a example for enable that conditional compilation flags?
regarding to my dev/urandom, yes my platform has this feature, the library runs very well, but I just have the point related to "force" the compilation because the library doesn't recognize the unix architecture.
Thanks and we keep in touch!
Regards from Mexico!
BTW If I want to professional training, Do you offered this service?

Hi Palomo, You seem to be compiling for a system with a Linux kernel, but with only a partial Unix userland. The “Unix” code in the entropy_poll module might work on your system, but it is only enabled if __unix__ or __unix (or a few others) is defined. Can you please try the attached patch? Does your runtime environment have /dev/urandom ?
