MISRA C compliance spreadsheet access permission

by Lim, Jit Loon

Hi TF-A committee, We are trying to access to the MISRA C spreadsheet mentioned over here. [cid:image001.jpg@01D806BE.A535F7C0] https://developer.trustedfirmware.org/file/download/lamajxif3w7c4mpjeoo5/PH… However, we are facing issue to open the spreadsheet and we are getting "Invalid Authorization". [cid:image002.jpg@01D806BE.A535F7C0] After we click on the "Continue", the website show Restricted File and we have no access permission. [cid:image003.jpg@01D806BE.A535F7C0] Thus, we would like to get your help to assist us on how to obtain the spreadsheet. Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks Best Regards JL Lim (Benjamin)

A problem about assert failed in TF-A

by Chenxu Wang

Hi all, I am running FVP with 2CPUs, Cactus SP (SEL1), Hafnium (SEL2) and KVM VHE. Sometimes I send the "FFA_MSG_SEND_DIRECT_REQ" smc call from KVM (I fill 0x8400006f in x0, then VMID and SP ID in x1, let x2 as 0). It says assert failed, like this: ASSERT: lib/el3_runtime/aarch64/context_mgmt.c:651 BACKTRACE: START: assert 0: EL3: 0x4005cac 1: EL3: 0x400323c 2: EL3: 0x400620c 3: EL3: 0x400e180 4: EL3: 0x4005a94 BACKTRACE: END: assert After I check the bl31.dump, I notice that: when services/std_svc/spmd/spmd_main.c sends the FFA call (from NS to S) via "spmd_smc_forward(smc_fid, secure_origin,x1, x2, x3, x4, handle)", it will go to cm_el1_sysregs_context_restore(secure_state_out) and cm_el2_sysregs_context_restore(secure_state_out), then it will assert the cm_get_context(). it gets the NULL context, so assert failed. Before the problem appeared, I have modified many codes on a dirty TF-A v2.4 (commit hash is 0aa70f4c4c023ca58dea2d093d3c08c69b652113), Hafnium and TF-A-TESTS. I also mail with Hafnium MailList, they consider it can be a problem in EL3. Such assert is NOT ALWAYS failed. I mean, maybe when I run FVP and send "smc" now, it is failed. But when I shut down, run FVP, and send the same instruction with the same parameter again, it is OK. I want to know, what is the possible reasons for suddenly losing the secure context. Can you give me some advice on debugging? e.g., where should I check? Need I provide more info? Sincerely, Wang
