Main updates from version V21[1]: -------------------------------- This version removes the st,stm32mp1-m4-tee compatibility string, which no longer seems to be accepted by the Devicetree maintainers. As a consequence, the stm32-rproc-tee driver, introduced to simplify the code, is removed. The STM32 integration reuses the existing stm32_rproc driver implemented in V19.
The devicetree is now structured as follows:
firmware { tee_rproc: optee-rproc { compatible = "80a4c275-0a47-4905-8285-1486a9771a08"; }; };
m4: m4@10000000 { compatible = "st,stm32mp1-m4"; reg = <0x10000000 0x40000>, <0x30000000 0x40000>, <0x38000000 0x10000>;
mboxes = <&ipcc 0>, <&ipcc 1>, <&ipcc 2>, <&ipcc 3>; mbox-names = "vq0", "vq1", "shutdown", "detach";
memory-region = <&vdev0vring0>, <&m_ipc_shm>, <&mcuram2>, <&vdev0vring1>, <&vdev0buffer>, <&retram>;
interrupt-parent = <&exti>; interrupts = <68 1>;
st,rproc-tee = <&tee_rproc 0>;
status = "okay"; };
As a consequence, this version: - reintroduce v19 commits for stm32_rproc.c driver , adding the support of the st,rproc-tee binding. - drops the dedicated remoteproc-tee.yaml and st,stm32-rproc-tee.yaml bindings from the series. - extends st,stm32-rproc.yaml with st,rproc-tee to describe the link to the TEE remoteproc backend. - removes the dedicated stm32_rproc_tee.c driver and reuses stm32_rproc.c for both native and TEE-controlled cases. - keeps remoteproc_tee.c aligned with the phandle-based lookup introduced in v21 and uses a device_link between the STM32 remoteproc instance and the TEE backend device.
More details are available in each patch commit message.
Main updates from version V20[3]: -------------------------------- To address Rob’s concern on v20concerning resource declaration under the tee node, the device tree is now structured as follows,replacing the child-parent hierarchy with a phandle:
firmware { tee_rproc: optee-rproc { compatible = "80a4c275-0a47-4905-8285-1486a9771a08"; }; };
m4: m4@0 { compatible = "st,stm32mp1-m4-tee"; reg = <0 0>;
mboxes = <&ipcc 0>, <&ipcc 1>, <&ipcc 2>; mbox-names = "vq0", "vq1", "shutdown";
memory-region = <&vdev0vring0>, <&m_ipc_shm>, <&mcuram2>, <&vdev0vring1>, <&vdev0buffer>, <&retram>;
interrupt-parent = <&exti>; interrupts = <68 1>;
rproc-tee-phandle = <&tee_rproc 0>; st,auto-boot; wakeup-source;
status = "okay"; };
As a consequence, this version: - Updates the device tree and bindings to: - Change the compatible property from "rproc-service-80a4c275-0a47-4905-8285-1486a9771a08" to "80a4c275-0a47-4905-8285-1486a9771a08". - Use the rproc-tee-phandle to avoid the parent-child hierarchy. - Updates stm32_rproc_tee.c and remoteproc_tee.c to adapt to the new bindings. - Updates remoteproc_tee.c to compute the device tree compatible string from the TEE UUID.
Main updates from version V19[4]: -------------------------------- The devicetree is now structured as follows:
firmware { optee { compatible = "linaro,optee-tz"; method = "smc"; #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; rproc-service@0 { compatible = "rproc-service-80a4c275-0a47-4905-8285-1486a9771a08"; reg = <0>; #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; status = "okay"; m4: m4@0 { compatible = "st,stm32mp15-m4-tee"; reg = <0>; mboxes = <&ipcc 0>, <&ipcc 1>, <&ipcc 2>; mbox-names = "vq0", "vq1", "shutdown"; memory-region = <&vdev0vring0>, <&m_ipc_shm>, <&mcuram2>, <&vdev0vring1>, <&vdev0buffer>, <&retram>; interrupt-parent = <&exti>; interrupts = <68 1>; status = "okay"; }; }; }; };
As a consequence, this version:
- Introduces a new stm32_rproc_tee.c remoteproc driver.
Instead of further complicating the existing stm32_rproc.c driver, a dedicated TEE-based driver is added. Both drivers are intended to also support the STM32MP2x Cortex-M33 remote processor in a next step.
- Reworks the bindings: - Drop the st,stm32-rproc.yaml updates that were introduced in previous revisions. - Add remoteproc-tee.yaml for the "rproc-service-80a4c275-0a47-4905-8285-1486a9771a08" compatible. - Add st,stm32-rproc-tee.yaml for the "st,stm32mp15-m4-tee" compatible.
- Reworks the probing sequence:
The m4@0 device is now probed by the remoteproc-tee driver, which itself is instantiated by the TEE (OP-TEE) bus.

Tested-on: --------- commit 591cd656a1bf ("Linux 7.0-rc7")
Description of the feature: -------------------------- This series proposes the implementation of a remoteproc tee driver to communicate with a TEE trusted application responsible for authenticating and loading the remoteproc firmware image in an Arm secure context.
1) Principle:
The remoteproc tee driver provides services to communicate with the OP-TEE trusted application running on the Trusted Execution Context (TEE). The trusted application in TEE manages the remote processor lifecycle:
- authenticating and loading firmware images, - isolating and securing the remote processor memories, - supporting multi-firmware (e.g., TF-M + Zephyr on a Cortex-M33), - managing the start and stop of the firmware by the TEE.
2) Format of the signed image:
Refer to: https://github.com/OP-TEE/optee_os/blob/master/ta/remoteproc/src/remoteproc_...
3) OP-TEE trusted application API:
Refer to: https://github.com/OP-TEE/optee_os/blob/master/ta/remoteproc/include/ta_remo...
4) OP-TEE signature script
Refer to: https://github.com/OP-TEE/optee_os/blob/master/scripts/sign_rproc_fw.py
Example of usage: sign_rproc_fw.py --in <fw1.elf> --in <fw2.elf> --out <signed_fw.sign> --key ${OP-TEE_PATH}/keys/default.pem
5) Impact on User space Application
No sysfs impact. The user only needs to provide the signed firmware image instead of the ELF image.
For more information about the implementation, a presentation is available here (note that the format of the signed image has evolved between the presentation and the integration in OP-TEE).
