Allow platforms to deny CPU power off request

by Varun Wadekar

Hello, We have a use case where we want to deny the CPU power off from a certain PE. The current lib/psci does not provide a way for a platform to do this. We have support to return an error from svc_off, but this does not cover the scenario where svc_off is NULL. There are multiple ways of handling this scenario. 1. Introduce a new platform function to check if CPU_OFF is allowed on the core 2. Return an error code from the pwr_domain_off() handler and unwind the CPU_OFF request 3. Something else. Any suggestions? -Varun

Deprecation of Arm CryptoCell-712/713 drivers

by Sandrine Bailleux

Hello, This is a courtesy notification that we plan to deprecate Arm CryptoCell-712 and CryptoCell-713 drivers in TF-A release v2.9, with the goal to remove their source code from the tree in the following TF-A release after that. This won't affect any upstream platforms beyond Arm Ltd platforms (under plat/arm/ folder). If you have any concerns with this, please raise them by Monday, April 24th. Best regards, Sandrine

TF-A with TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT failed when using mbedtls-3.4.0

by Chen-Yu Yang

Hi, I'm using TF-A 2.8 on mt7986 board, enable TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT using mbedtls-3.4.0, TF-A BL2 hanged when loading BL31, it seems that BL2 failed to get correct oid in function get_ext(drivers/auth/mbedtls/mbedtls_x509_parser.c) after calling mbedtls_oid_get_numeric_string mbedtls_oid_get_numeric_string in 3.4.0 uses %c to print part of oid, (https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls/blob/v3.4.0/library/oid.c#L864) but seems that ATF libc's snprintf doesn't support %c format, which causes mbedtls_oid_get_numeric_string to return incorrect oid oid_str dump in get_ext oid_str=%c.49.6.1.4.1.4128.2100.1 (mbedtls_oid_get_numeric_string) oid_str=1.3.6.1.4.1.4128.2100.1 (TRUSTED_FW_NVCOUNTER_OID) I try to change snprintf format %c to %u in mbedtls_oid_get_numeric_string, TF-A boots successfully Thanks

Re: Question about the Memory Encryption Engine on FVP

by Sandrine Bailleux

Hi, Concerning the following Fast Model Component: https://developer.arm.com/documentation/100964/1121/Fast-Models-components/… This component is already publicly documented although it is not integrated yet into the AEM FVP. The main usage is to identify software mis-programming, where the same Physical address is accessed through more than one Physical Address Space (PAS). As such, it is intended as a development / debugging tool only. If such a mis-programming scenario happened then the memory page corresponding to the accessed physical address would get corrupted. Notice memory encryption is not yet supported in TF-A's SW stacks. You won't find a reference for this feature in TF-A / TF-a-tests just now. Best regards, Sandrine

Is TF-A going to support MBEDTLS_AESCE_C option in mbedtls-3.4.0?

by Chen-Yu Yang

Hi, I'm working in TF-A 2.8 with mbedtls, I notice that mbedtls-3.4.0 starts to support AES crypto extension(MBEDTLS_AESCE_C) for some security reasons, I upgrade mbedtls from 2.28.0 to 3.4.0, and try to enable MBEDTLS_AESCE_C in TF-A. I fail to compile mbedtls aesce.c in TF-A build environment. I use CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-gcc-7.5.0. It seems that AESCE needs some std libraries(e.g. arm_neon.h) supported by aarch64 gcc, while TF-A disables std libraries, and some compile flags(e.g. -mgeneral-regs-only) are conflict with current TF-A. I wonder is TF-A going to support MBEDTLS_AESCE_C option? Thanks

Question about the Memory Encryption Engine on FVP

by Chenxu Wang

Hi all, I want to test the memory encryption functions in Arm CCA. Currently, I find that Arm FVP supports a PVMemoryProtectionEngine. Thus, can I use this engine in current TF-A or TF-A-Tests? If yes, how to use this engine? Sincerely, WANG Chenxu

TF-A code documentation

by Michal Simek

Hi, I have talked to a couple of people to figure out what TF-A project is using for code documentation. Because I see at least in our platform that our documentation is somewhere between doxygen and kernel-doc but actually with a lot of mismatches. Sanbrine mentioned sending an email to the mailing list to start to have discussion about it. That's why I want to know the official code documentation format and how we should be checking that everything matches to make sure that documentation is not out of sync from code itself. When this is clear I will ask my team to fix all these issues. Thanks, Michal -- Michal Simek, Ing.
