Re: [TF-M] Multi-threaded single-scheduler model proposal

Hi, Looks like another non-secure thread with higher priority could not access secure service since the secure context belongs to previous ongoing non-secure thread and tz_context is not proposed? /Ken From: TF-M <tf-m-bounces(a)lists.trustedfirmware.org> On Behalf Of Reinhard Keil via TF-M Sent: Thursday, April 2, 2020 9:52 PM To: DeMars, Alan <ademars(a)ti.com>; tf-m(a)lists.trustedfirmware.org Cc: nd <nd(a)arm.com> Subject: Re: [TF-M] Multi-threaded single-scheduler model proposal Alan, "I was afraid that this was the proposal. No lower priority NS threads can run while waiting for the secure interrupt. Only higher priority threads that are initiated by a NS interrupt can run." You are correct, scheduling of lower priority NS threads would be not possible. This is definitely a shortcoming of the solution. May I ask: how long does a hardware crypto operation take? What time could be used for low priority NS thread execution? Reinhard

Multi-threaded single-scheduler model proposal

by Reinhard Keil

Hi Erik, Really great to see your involvement. Let me share my view on a TF-M execution model for constrained single core v8-M with TrustZone using Secure Function Call (aka library) mode: On secure side: single thread execution only. Not stack swapping. NS to S calls are blocking until secure execution completes. On non-secure side: RTOS with threaded execution. Entry to secure side protected with Mutex. This structure is explain on page 27 of https://github.com/ARM-software/CMSIS_5/blob/develop/CMSIS_Review_Meeting_2… IMHO, there are various benefits: * Overall less complexity, no need of tz_context, any RTOS would work, less memory overhead (i.e. single stack at secure side) * No impact to time deterministic execution on the NS side unless two threads call secure services * Conflict of mulitple threads calling secure services could be minimized with RTOS that offers priority inversion Are there any obvious problems with the above model? Thanks Reinhard Keil - Sr. Director Embedded Tools, Arm P.S. maybe you read also https://lists.trustedfirmware.org/pipermail/tf-m/2020-March/000805.html IMHO we need to simplify the NS to S call entry to speed-up the overall system

It saves some "git archeology" effort to try and dig this information afterwards. Also, when someone starts looking at a project, I would expect this to be one of the first thing they look up, they would want to know in which shape the project is for the particular platform they are interested in. That's almost as important in my eyes as a "getting started" guide.

Re: [TF-M] [EXTERNAL] Project Maintenance Proposal for tf.org Projects

by Shreve, Erik

Sandrine, Really glad to see this being pulled together. A couple of areas of feedback around the Platform Support Life Cycle. As previously mentioned there are two orthogonal concerns captured in the current life cycle: Support and Functionality. I'd like to see these split out. For functionality, chip vendors may not have a business case for supporting all features on a given platform but they may provide full support for the features they have chosen to include. A simple example would be supporting PSA FF Isolation Level 1 only due to lack of HW isolation support needed to achieve Isolation Level 2 or greater. Also, I'd like to see a stronger standard put forth for platform documentation. If a platform is "supported," I believe the documentation should be complete and accurate. A lack of complete and clear documentation leaves open a wide door for misuse/misconfiguration which could result in a vulnerable system. Here is a more concrete proposal: Functional Support: Each project shall provide a standard feature or functionality list. Each platform shall include in its documentation a copy of this list with the supported functionality marked as supported. The platform documentation may reference a ticket if support is planned but not yet present. The platform documentation shall explicitly state if a feature or function has no plans for support. The feature/functionality list shall be versioned, with the version tied to the release version(s) of the project. In this way, it will be clear if a platform was last officially updated for version X but the project is currently at version Y > X. Note: projects will need to adopt (if they have not already) a version scheme that distinguishes between feature updates and bug fixes. Each project and platform shall use tags or similar functionality on tickets to associate tickets to features/functionality and platforms. If the names of tags can't match the name of the feature or platform exactly then a mapping shall be provided in the appropriate document(s). Life Cycle State Fully Supported There is (at least) one active code owner for this platform. All supported features build and either all tests pass or failures are associated with tracked known issues. Other (not associated to a test) Known Issues are tracked Documentation is up to date Note: Projects should document standards on how "active" code ownership is measured and further document standards on how code owners are warned about impending life cycle state changes. Orphan There is no active code owner All supported features build and either all tests pass or failures are associated with tracked known issues. Other (not associated to a test) Known Issues may not have been maintained (as there is no active code owner) Documentation status is unclear since there is no active code owner. There has been no change to the feature/functionality list in the project since the platform was last "Fully Supported" Out of date Same as orphan, but either: there have been changes to the feature/functionality list, or there are failing tests without tracked tickets, or there are known documentation issues. Deprecated Same as Out of Date, but the build is broken. Platform may be removed from the project codebase in the future.

The maintenance proposal looks great ! I have some feedback on specific portions: 1. maintainer/owner/author patches. " Note that roles can be cumulative, in particular the same individual can be both a code owner and a maintainer. In such a scenario, the individual would be able to self-merge a patch solely affecting his module, having the authority to approve it from both a code owner and maintainer's point of view.": I'm always leery of people self-approving their patches. At a minimum, all self-patches should be published and a minimum wait time provided for feedback. Or preferably that another maintainer does the merge (it does not need to be mandated but should be suggested). 2. 'timely manner': This expectation should be more explicit - when the author can start requesting other maintainers to merge on assumption that silence == approval (or not). Such timeliness expectations are probably best set per project however. 3. The proposal does not address branching strategies. i.e. will there be separate maintainers for dev/master/stable branches? I don't think it needs to address it yet - keep it simpler for a start. But a todo saying something like "in the future this project maintenance proposal might be expanded to address multi-branch maintainership" would be good. 4. The platform lifecycle state machine has too many transitions. "Fully maintained" <-> "orphan" -> "out" seems sufficient to me. Thanks, Christian.

Slight update on design proposal process document

by Ken Liu

Hi, I have made a slight update on the design proposal process document, to simplify the design document drafting. The 'Author' and 'Organization' are not both mandatory, one of them can be optional depends on the contributor. And mark the 'status' optional since it can be covered by the document system. Feel free to comment on the patch: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/trusted-firmware-m/+/3407 And I prefer to comment on the issue link since there is more better for discussion: https://developer.trustedfirmware.org/T673 Reply here is an option, too.

Re: [TF-M] Multi-threaded single-scheduler model proposal

by Shreve, Erik

Ken, Thanks for the feedback! I agree that care will be needed in the design and implementation of the calls from S to NS. I hope to provide design details that minimize the risk by minimizing the RTOS specific layer. Unfortunately, I'm not clear on your feedback about the 'scheduler' and 'context-switch' terms. Let me expand on my proposal here a bit more. Perhaps this will clarify things or at least provide enough detail for you to provide more specific feedback. I'm sure you are aware that the PSA Firmware Framework provides for the scheduling of the secure partitions. I'm proposing (as an option, it is not a core feature of the proposal) that the SPM may be responsible for scheduling of Application Root of Trust services in this new model. Further, execution of PSA RoT services on behalf of Application RoT services may also fall under the SPM's scheduling. Thus, this part of the new model would fit with the PSA FF spec. This would thus mean that the NSPE RTOS is only scheduling NSPE Tasks and the associated PSA RoT service requests for those NSPE Tasks. However, supporting the "App RoT scheduling by SPM" in the model may complicate the implementation or at the very least the straightforward understanding of how the model works. The alternative, of course, is that the NSPE RTOS schedules the execution of the Application RoT services the same as it schedules the PSA RoT services. I think I prefer the latter, but I'm open to the former if the community has good reasons for it. One reason might be an expectation that PSA RoT services will be maintained by platform owners and platform owners can choose which models to support, but the community may want creators of Application RoT services to have the same experience regardless of the model implemented. Thanks!

And I got two comments in your listed bullets: * Resource locking APIs are provided to allow PSA RoT functions to communicate with the NSPE scheduler (i.e. mutex take/give) - Even the Trustzone-M supports S to NS call, be cation when you are designing such features because leave a waiting pattern in the secure side exposes one extra interface. * A SPE scheduler may still exist for application root of trust services, if any exist on a system. - Please use the 'scheduler' and 'context-switch' with scope. If there are 2 threads only and just switching contexts between them, the word 'scheduler' would be a bit confusing here. Hope my assumption is incorrect. Please go ahead with your preparation for the Tech Forum. Anton can give you detail descriptions about it and I think preparing a PUBLIC slide can be the first step. Thanks. /Ken From: TF-M <tf-m-bounces(a)lists.trustedfirmware.org> On Behalf Of Shreve, Erik via TF-M Sent: Tuesday, March 24, 2020 5:26 AM To: tf-m(a)lists.trustedfirmware.org Cc: nd <nd(a)arm.com> Subject: Re: [TF-M] Multi-threaded single-scheduler model proposal Anton, Yes, I can be prepared to discuss in the next forum.

To state a little more specifically: * The NSPE scheduler makes all scheduling decisions for execution (call) flows of the NSPE tasks - including when those flows are operating in secure side * APIs are provided to the NSPE scheduler to switch SPE task contexts (one task context associated to each NSPE task that uses PSA RoT) * Resource locking APIs are provided to allow PSA RoT functions to communicate with the NSPE scheduler (i.e. mutex take/give) * A SPE scheduler may still exist for application root of trust services, if any exist on a system. I don't see anything written up on a model like this in the design proposals or Phabricator. However, it appears to me that such a model (or something similar) must have been previously discussed. 1. There already exists a tz_context API set in CMSIS-Core for communicating task switches by the NSPE scheduler to the SPM 2. Cooperative scheduling rules design was accepted: https://ci.trustedfirmware.org/job/tf-m-build-test-nightly/lastSuccessfulBu… 3. https://youtu.be/6wEFoq49qUw?t=1671 speaks about having a stack on the SPE per NSPE task. Also, the question from the audience at the end of the presentation relates to having a single NSPE scheduler. A brief word on the motivation for such a proposal... To ease (and thus increase) adaptation of PSA RoT, wherein those services are protected from nontrusted code, the impact to the NSPE code should be minimized. The current models (Library, IPC) do well to minimize the impact from an API standpoint. That is, the NSPE caller need not know where/how the PSA RoT operates in order to compile. However, the current models do not minimize impact to scheduling on single core systems. The library model locks behind a single mutex the operations that previously existed independent of one another. The IPC model provides more flexibility. However, it still extends lock times beyond current implementations and it introduces an additional scheduler which removes determinism and forces system designers to rethink existing code. I'd like to know if there are any recorded plans for such a model (or something more similar to it than the three items above). If not, has it been discussed and actively rejected? If so why? I can/will write up a more concrete proposal, but wanted to get some discussion around the high-level idea first.

To let US members a chance to join at a reasonable time, propose to have the next session at US-friendly time (17:00 UTC) and then keep it every 4th, having 1:3 ratio. What do you think about such schema? As usual, please reply to this email with your proposals for agenda topics. Best regards, Anton Komlev
