Re: Question about memory mapping attributes for MT_DEVICE

Why was nGnRE selected instead of nGnRnE? Platforms which have USE_COHERENT_MEM set to 1 will map the coherent memory area as MT_DEVICE. This area is helpful for cases where a backery lock is shared between cores which have MMU enabled and cores which don’t (whose access is equivalent to nGnRnE). This would generate an access attributes mismatch for the coherent memory area. Would it be ok to send a patch which changes the ATTR_DEVICE to nGnRnE?

Adding new platform support for ADI's ADSP-SC598

by Agarwal, Utsav

Hi All, We currently have TF-A/OP-TEE support for a platform (ADSP-SC598, arm cortex A55) in our forked repositories and would like to upstream our past efforts to align better with newer developments within the projects. As per the contributor's guide for TF-A, it mentions that it might be a good idea to start a discussion regarding the same prior to submission of a patch series. Currently, the plan is for the initial patch series to support BL31 followed by another patch series adding support for PSCI. The overarching idea being that BOOTROM passes control to u-boot SPL, which configures required peripherals and loads us into TF-A, then proceeding to load OP-TEE, followed by full uboot/linux. Please let me know your thoughts/concerns and if I should be proceeding with the patch series submission. Regards, Utsav Agarwal
