Issue with adding ssh key to review server

by sparlane＠gmail.com

Hi All, Sorry if this is the wrong list, I'm trying to submit a patch for tf-a and I'm currently unable to add an ssh key or generate an https password to use for authentication. Perhaps I am doing something wrong? I'm trying to use the settings here: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/settings/#HTTPCredentials to add an ssh key and I get the error message "Error 500 (Server Error): Internal server error Endpoint: /accounts/self/sshkeys" Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Scott (sparlane)

How to trap aborts caused by TZASC?

by Chenxu Wang

Hi all, I want to test how to trap the aborts caused by TZASC. For example, when I use NS-EL1 (e.g., OS) to access a Secure region (configured in TZASC), it will generate an abort. But I am not sure how to trap it. I think it is an external abort, so I enable the SCR_EL3.EA=1 and write a handler. However I cannot trap it. Also, my other handlers in EL3 still do not report the abort. Thus, how can I trap a TZASC abort? If I want to route it into EL3 to handle, how can I do it? Sincerely, WANG Chenxu

Does FVP and current TF-A support the SVE/SVE2 programming?

by Chenxu Wang

Hi all, I want to perform some encryption/decryption in TF-A. I find that Arm provides some hardware-assisted instructions for encryption and integrity verification (e.g., AESE, SHA1...). But it seems that FVP does not support them. I recently read Armv9 and know that Arm purposes SVE/SVE2 to accelerate the matrix computation. It seems that it can be another approach to accelerate the encryption. Since I am a novice in Armv9 (and in FVP), thus, I want to ask: (1) Do FVP and TF-A support the SVE? If yes, how to configure it? (2) Do FVP and TF-A support the SVE2? If yes, how to configure it? Looking forward to your reply! Sincerely, WANG Chenxu

Hi, I am trying to setup and run the RME support in TF-A, using the steps described here, https://trustedfirmware-a.readthedocs.io/en/latest/components/realm-managem… Build goes smoothly and when I launch FVP to run the RME tests using the command line mentioned in the link, the FVP terminal_0 seems to be get stuck at the below line, Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'.

TF-A CI often fail due to missing rebase

by Julius Werner

Hi Glen, Don, and others, I've seen that a couple of TF-A patches I've been CCed on recently often seem to fail the CI run (Allow-CI+1) due to some strange build-time errors that don't seem to have anything to do with the patch at hand, and then one of the maintainers usually suggests that the patch needs a rebase, and the next CI run succeeds after that. Here are two recent examples: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-A/trusted-firmware-a/+/16160 https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-A/trusted-firmware-a/+/14666 I was wondering if this is a known problem and if the CI can do anything here to mitigate it and save developers from this extra layer of friction? I'm not really sure why a rebase was necessary in either of these examples or why the CI run failed before it (unless the whole repository was in a bad state that didn't build, but since all submissions are guarded by the CI that shouldn't have been possible?). But I also don't really understand why the rebase would make a difference for the CI anyway. Generally, when a patch is submitted in Gerrit, that means it is cherry-picked onto the current master (regardless of what parent commit it was uploaded with). Since the CI is supposed to be a test run for submission, I would expect that the CI should also test a patch by cherry-picking it onto the current master, not just by building the patch on top of whatever parent commit it was uploaded with. But since rebasing a patch evidently seems to make a difference to the CI, that suggests that it's currently doing the latter strategy? Should that maybe be changed to the former to avoid these kinds of issues? If this isn't a known problem yet maybe it would be worth adding it to the JIRA? Thanks, Julius

A problem about TZASC in Armv9

by Chenxu Wang

Greetings, Armv9 introduces the RME and GPT technology. The GPT will separates the memory into unlimited regions with specific attributes. However, when I read the Armv9 manual and source code of TF-A, I still have some problems: 1. It seems that GPT is a feature on CPU, but not on a specific device (e.g.,TZC-400). Thus, will GPT conflict with TZC-400? I mean, when performing VA->PA on RAM, what is the detailed process if I enable both GPT and TZC-400? 2. I use the Arm FVP with Armv9 and RME extension enabled, and TF-A is "arm_cca" branch (with TF-A v2.5). Thus, in this version, what is the configuration for TZC-400 and GPT? Will it disable TZC-400 (I mean, GPT only) when booting Normal World? 3. Does GPT handle peripheral access (e.g., from DMA, GPU, Sensors... etc.)? I know TZC-400 will do it with NSAID. 4. Will GPT configures Read/Write/Execute features? All comments are valuable! SIncerely, WANG Chenxu

Re: Question about disable MMU in BL1

by 邬金平

Hi, I have tried this before, there is a problem. on Armv8, when MMU disabled, the default attribute of memory is device, and device memory access has alignment requirements. For example, accessing address (0x1) will result in fault.

Question about maximum TF-A BL31 memory usage

by Peng Fan

Hi All, Is there any public BL31 memory usage data, such as static image size and runtime memory usage, with different feature enabled? For example, typical PSCI feature would require image size XXKB, runtime memory XXKB. enabling FFA would enlarge image size by XXKB, runtime memory enlarge XXKB. we are evaluating how much On-Chip RAM could be assigned for BL31, if there are any public data available, that would be great. Thanks, Peng.

Rebooting LTS discussion

by Okash Khawaja

Hi, There have been discussions about having long term support releases for TF-A, e.g. the email thread [1] and a tech forum [2]. For partners releasing TF-A in their production devices, LTS is very much needed. From the previous discussions, it seems like there is an agreement that LTS is a good idea but we need to build consensus on how to support it. Any thoughts on this? Thanks, Okash [1] https://lists.trustedfirmware.org/archives/search?mlist=tf-a%40lists.truste… [2] https://www.trustedfirmware.org/docs/TF-A-LTS.pdf

Question about FVP's dts

by Chenxu Wang

Hi all, I am using FVP base RevC. Recently I heard that this FVP supports a Mali G76 GPU, and I want to test it. To configure it, initially I add a node in linux/arch/arm64/boot/dts/arm/fvp-base-aemv8a-aemv8a.dtsi, but it doesn't work. Finally, I find that I should configure trusted-firmware-a/fdts/fvp-base-gicv3-psci-1t.dts, and I can see a mali GPU node in /proc/device-tree. One of my booting command (sorry, the entire booting command is TOO long) is "--data cluster0.cpu0=arm-reference-platform/output/fvp/fvp-oe/uboot/fvp-base-aemv8a-aemv8a.dtb@0x82000000". And I use the following shell command to compile the TF-A: make PLAT=fvp all CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-elf- ENABLE_RME=1 DEBUG=1 ARCH=aarch64 fip BL33=arm-reference-platform/output/fvp/components/fvp/uboot.bin FVP_HW_CONFIG_DTS=fdts/fvp-base-gicv3-psci-1t.dts ARM_DISABLE_TRUSTED_WDOG=1. So, I wonder, why the real DTS is in TF-A, instead of Linux? BTW, I wanna ask another question (although it is not proper to ask here, I cannot find FVP's mailing list): Can someone provide a proper dts configurations for FVP's Mali G76 GPU? Sincerely, WANG Chenxu

Re: Cannot successfully jump to the UEFI Boot Loader in the normal world with the RME enabled FVP_Base_RevC_2xAEMvA

by Erhu Feng

Hi, Thanks for the detailed documentation about how to enable RME in tf-a. I try to replace the tftf.bin with the normal boot firmware (edk2) to load the Linux in the normal world, but it fails. The log message from terminal_0 is shown below: INFO: RMM init start. INFO: RMM init end. INFO: BL31: Preparing for EL3 exit to normal world INFO: Entry point address = 0x88000000 INFO: SPSR = 0x3c9 I found a possible solution from the archives: [https://lists.trustedfirmware.org/archives/list/tf-a@lists.trustedfirmware.…]. I try to modify the dts file under edk2-platform/Platform/ARM/VExpressPkg/DeviceTree/ to change the DDR memory range, which is similar to the modification for RME in [https://github.com/ARM-software/arm-trusted-firmware/blob/master/fdts/fvp-b…], but it does not solve the problem. So, how can I boot Linux in the normal world with RME enabled? Thanks,
