Hi all,
The PSA Firmware Framework for M 1.1 Extensions specification is now published on Arm Developer.
This document introduces a set of updates and extensions to the Arm® Platform Security Architecture Firmware Framework (FF-M) specification, designed to build on the capabilities provided in version 1.0.
This is an initial ALPHA release in order to enable wider review and feedback on the changes proposed to be included in the v1.1 specification. At this quality level, the changes and interfaces defined are not stable enough for product development. When the proposed extensions are sufficiently stable to be classed as Beta, they will be integrated into the FF-M version 1.1 specification.
The 1.1 Extensions document can be downloaded from:
https://developer.arm.com/documentation/aes0039/latest
Both the 1.0 Specification and the 1.1 Extensions document are linked from the main PSA architecture page:
https://developer.arm.com/architectures/security-architectures/platform-sec…
Ken and I have presented a number of times at last year's Tech Forums on the proposals in the specification, most recently I provided a summary of the whole document on 10th December 2020.
If you have any feedback, please provide it to arm.psa-feedback(a)arm.com, or discuss the proposals here in the TF-M mailing list.
Regards,
Andrew

I think the link needs to be updated into:
https://review.trustedfirmware.org/q/topic:%22static_linker_scripts%22+(sta…
This would make the components arrangement more simpler than using a templating. But for level 3 we still have to using a templating as now there is no 'foreach' like functionalities supported in the ld/sct/icf.

Subject: [TF-M] [RFC] Static linker scripts for level 1 and 2 isolation
Hi everyone
I'd like to request comments on an upcoming change to the linker scripts.
Because of some recent changes to the memory layout for level 1 and level 2 isolation, it's now possible to avoid the generation step via tfm_parse_manifest_lists.py for those linker files. This means that the files are static and have been committed into the source tree (as they used to be).
We anticipate this change will make integrating TF-M into non-cmake buildsystems easier, as it will avoid one of the places where files need to be generated at build-time.
The reason this is an RFC is that it is a potentially breaking change, but only for integrators _not_ using the cmake buildsystem.
Currently the linker uses a large variety of pattern matches to organise the partition symbols, with these patterns being defined in the tfm_manifest_list.yaml. After this change, the linker will only look for two patterns:
`*app_rot_partition*` and `*psa_rot_partition*`
With the intention that the secure partitions will be compiled into a static library, where the filename is (for example) `libtfm_psa_rot_partition_crypto.a`. The cmake buildsystem will be updated to generate these filenames, but other integrators will need to adjust their compilation steps else the linking will fail.
Any comments or concerns would be appreciated.

Hi all,
I made a patch<https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/7817> to refine the variable naming in manifest tooling, specifically the "manifest.manifest" in templates.
I'm changing it to "partition.manifest" which should be more accurate and easy understanding.
Broadcasting here for anyone has out-of-tree templates.
And any comments are welcome.

Hi Antonio,
Thanks a lot for reviewing the threat model and bringing up this topic.
To fully mitigate the threat you mentioned, NSPE shall enforce NS tasks isolation and assign/manage NS identifications. IMHO, It mainly relies on non-secure side implementation.
Therefore that threat can be covered in the scope of another threat model against NS side.
TF-M is trying to figure out how to assist NSPE to manage and transfer NS identifications. Any suggestion or comment is welcome and helpful! 😊

Hi Hu,
I read the threat model and I have a question regarding a potential threat.
I’m not sure it should belong to this generic threat model or it is already included in one of those presented.
The scenario is the following: a NS App X uses a RoT Service that store data private to X. Another NS App Y can fool the SPE to impersonate X and retrieve its private data. For example, X save a value in the secure storage and Y retrieves this value. TF-M prevents this using non secure client identification mechanism. This is a classic confused deputy problem.
Can this be considered a threat in this model or should it belong to another model/TOE?

Hi,
The existing section 'TFM_UNPRIV_DATA' now holds nothing - it was designed for holding some data belong to the unprivileged code block, while now the unprivileged code is required as read-only and no place for its read-write data.
Remove this section as it is unused; also remove those code objects exists in the unprivileged code section but has read-write data: 'platform_retarget_dev.o' and 'device_definition.o'.
This patch changes some sources inside the platforms, so the platform owner please help to check if that matters:

Subject: [TF-M] RFC on changes to install directory structure
Hi everyone
I'd like to request for comment on some changes to the TF-M installed files.
Since this is an interface change (though minor), changes to it might cause issues with existing TF-M integrations.
The current install directory looks like:
install
├── export
│ └── tfm
└── outputs
This doesn't give any useful information about what is contained in each directory. The proposed replacement is:
install
├── image_signing
├── interface
└── outputs
Where the contents of `export/tfm` have been moved into `interface`, which better captures the contents of that directory.
`image_signing` is new in the patchset, and contains the scripts, layouts and keys needed to sign an NS image.
The final improvement in the patchset is the ability to control the location of the `install` directory via TFM_INSTALL_PATH which could be useful for integrators.
Feedback would be appreciated if you feel that these new directory names could be improved, or if this change would cause significant breakage for your TF-M integration.

Hi all,
Happy holiday!
I'd like to let you know that non-secure interface build has been moved from TF-M to tf-m-tests in following patches:
TF-M: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/q/topic:%22move-ns-api%22+(status:open%2…
Tf-m-tests: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/q/topic:%22add-ns-api%22+(status:open%20…
After that change, the .c files under TF-M interface/src are built during non-secure side build. It aligns with the actual process of NS integration with TF-M.
Moreover, non-secure specific flags, which control TF-M NS interface, can be configured and managed in non-secure side build, without affecting TF-M secure part.
Please modify tf-m-tests app/CMakeLists.txt for future changes to non-secure interface build. Thanks.

Hi Poppy,
Some rough ideas about secure Flash support in TF-M.
IMHO, there can be two options:
1. Based on ITS service
Secure Flash acts as the flash driver at the backend of ITS service. The secure Flash driver can invoke Crypto secure service instead of mbedTLS to avoid building two duplicates of mbedTLS library.
The cryptographic operation and key management are implemented in secure Flash driver and can be transparent to ITS service while some initialization can be necessary.
But it cannot support persistent keys otherwise it will generate a circular dependency between ITS and Crypto services.
1. Based on PS service
With PS service, the cryptographic operations can be implemented by PS crypto steps, such as encryption and authentication. Secure Flash driver only covers communication with remote device.
We don’t have to worry about the circular dependency with Crypto service.
However, there are some limitations of PS service currently:
* PS service cannot support multiple asset keys for cryptography.
* PS service cannot work alone without ITS service.

Hu Ziji

The crypto keys you mentioned in your previous reply are the crypto keys used to encrypt the communication channel between host MCU with the secure Flash? Or the secrets such as (public/private)key pairs used in TLS protocol?
If the former,I think these keys may be stored in NVM memories such as OTP or internal flash of MCU,and these keys can be loaded and imported as transient keys in RAM with a key handle during such as secure boot, then we can call PSA Crypto service with these key handles, in this case, the dependency from Crypto to secure flash doesn't exist.

Hi Jamie,
Thank you for your reply.
You are right,the secure Flash can be used to store sensitive information like TLS private keys,in this application, during TLS handshake,Crypto service depends on secure Flash driver to get these private keys,so the dependency from Crypto to the secure flash needs to be kept.
And you mentioned implementation of crypto functions varies depending on the platform(some platforms have hardware crypto module while the others have to depend on software crypto library), platfrom without HW crypto module could use AES encrypt/decrypt functions from a software crypto library (e.g. Mbed TLS). As I understand, currently tfm Crypto service also uses Mbed TLS as the backend software crypto library by default. I am wondering if secure Flash driver could call this Mbed TLS library APIs (such as mbedtls_aes_encrypt()) directly?

Re: [TF-M] Discuss how to support secure Flash in TF-M
Hi,
The trouble with calling the PSA Crypto functions from your secure flash driver is that it will create a circular dependency between the ITS service and the Crypto service. Crypto uses ITS to store its keys, but then the secure flash driver calls the Crypto service again to encrypt the data. These circular dependencies between partitions are forbidden in TF-M.
As I understand it, one of the uses of the secure flash is to store crypto keys, so the dependency from Crypto to the secure flash needs to be kept. That means the dependency on the Crypto service in the secure flash driver needs to be avoided. I think ideally the best way to do this would be to use hardware crypto functions available in the platform instead of PSA Crypto APIs inside the flash driver, but if no crypto hardware is available then you could use AES encrypt/decrypt functions from a software crypto library (e.g. Mbed TLS).
Hope that helps.
Kind regards,
Jamie

Subject: [TF-M] Discuss how to support secure Flash in TF-M
Dear all,
I would like to discuss how to add secure Flash support in TF-M.
Firstly, I want to describe the motivation of adding secure Flash support in TF-M.
Currently ARM TF-M provides protected storage service(PS service for short) to implement security protection on external normal storage, however this type external normal storage is still vulnerable to unauthorized physical modifications/erasing and cloning.Macronix and other Flash memory suppliers have developed secure Flash products to enhance the security in external flash devices. Secure Flash enables mutual authentication between itself and host MCU/SoC and only permits the authorised host to perform access, besides, the communication channel between host MCU/SoC and secure Flash is protected by encryption, authentication, data scrambling, and frame sequencing with monotonic counters as shown below, so the secure Flash provides dependable defense against unauthorised access, man-in-the-middle, replay, sniffing and other security threats.
[cid:image001.gif@01D6D91C.DAC89B20]
If we port TF-M to a platform which uses secure Flash as external flash,then secure Flash driver should be added to TF-M.However,compared with nomal external flash driver,secure Flash driver needs extra crypto functions(such as calling AES crypto functions to encrypt/decrypt data), if the secure Flash driver is placed in platform folder in TF-M code structure as a backend of ITS service, I don't know whether secure Flash driver is allowed to call Crypto service(such as psa_aead_encrypt(), psa_aead_decrypt() )directly.If not, are there any other solutions to perform crypto operations in secure Flash driver?

driver is that it will create a circular dependency between the ITS
service and the Crypto service. Crypto uses ITS to store its keys, but
then the secure flash driver calls the Crypto service again to encrypt the
data. These circular dependencies between partitions are forbidden in
TF-M.
As I understand it, one of the uses of the secure flash is to store crypto
keys, so the dependency from Crypto to the secure flash needs to be kept.
That means the dependency on the Crypto service in the secure flash driver
needs to be avoided. I think ideally the best way to do this would be to
use hardware crypto functions available in the platform instead of PSA
Crypto APIs inside the flash driver, but if no crypto hardware is
available then you could use AES encrypt/decrypt functions from a software
crypto library (e.g. Mbed TLS).
Hope that helps.
Kind regards,
Jamie

Subject: [TF-M] Discuss how to support secure Flash in TF-M
Dear all,
I would like to discuss how to add secure Flash support in TF-M.
Firstly, I want to describe the motivation of adding secure Flash support
in TF-M.
Currently ARM TF-M provides protected storage service(PS service for
short) to implement security protection on external normal storage,
however this type external normal storage is still vulnerable to
unauthorized physical modifications/erasing and cloning.Macronix and other
Flash memory suppliers have developed secure Flash products to enhance the
security in external flash devices. Secure Flash enables mutual
authentication between itself and host MCU/SoC and only permits the
authorised host to perform access, besides, the communication channel
between host MCU/SoC and secure Flash is protected by encryption,
authentication, data scrambling, and frame sequencing with monotonic
counters as shown below, so the secure Flash provides dependable defense
against unauthorised access, man-in-the-middle, replay, sniffing and other
security threats.
If we port TF-M to a platform which uses secure Flash as external
flash,then secure Flash driver should be added to TF-M.However,compared
with nomal external flash driver,secure Flash driver needs extra crypto
functions(such as calling AES crypto functions to encrypt/decrypt data),
if the secure Flash driver is placed in platform folder in TF-M code
structure as a backend of ITS service, I don't know whether secure Flash
driver is allowed to call Crypto service(such as psa_aead_encrypt(),
psa_aead_decrypt() )directly.If not, are there any other solutions to
perform crypto operations in secure Flash driver?

Hi Jamie,
Thank you for your reply.
You are right,the secure Flash can be used to store sensitive information
like TLS private keys,in this application, during TLS handshake,Crypto
service depends on secure Flash driver to get these private keys,so the
dependency from Crypto to the secure flash needs to be kept.
And you mentioned implementation of crypto functions varies depending on
the platform(some platforms have hardware crypto module while the others
have to depend on software crypto library), platfrom without HW crypto
module could use AES encrypt/decrypt functions from a software crypto
library (e.g. Mbed TLS). As I understand, currently tfm Crypto service
also uses Mbed TLS as the backend software crypto library by default. I am
wondering if secure Flash driver could call this Mbed TLS library APIs
(such as mbedtls_aes_encrypt()) directly?

Poppy Wu

Hi,
The purpose of code review guidelines is trying to provide some reference for reviewers. It is still in the evaluation stage. After it gets matured then we can pointer to this document as a required reference.
I updated some part of it, the main changes:
- The private symbol (static inside a source file) can have a prefix for easier source viewing, a reader would know it is a symbol in the file he/she is viewing which can avoid cross-files 'find reference' operation in the editor.
- Clarifies the header file types and the usage: A 'interface' header file is for abstraction, and a typical 'include' header contains exported functionalities for external module usage.
Please help to take a look if you have time - as this is one of the upcoming updates, I will treat the review contents out of the changed lines into a new patch if it is possible.

Hi all,
I have pushed for review the new Internal Trusted Storage and Protected Storage HAL designs, as well as an initial implementation for AN521. I will update the change for all other platforms once the design has settled down.
It expands the ITS and PS HALs to cover all flash and filesystem configuration parameters required from the platform. The CMSIS Flash Driver is exposed to abstract the flash device itself.
ITS is updated to use the new HALs, with its_flash_info_external.c, its_flash_info_internal.c and its_flash.c removed. The ITS filesystem is updated to take a configuration struct as an initialisation parameter, which is filled using values from the HAL.
The gerrit reviews are:

Subject: [TF-M] [RFC] Moving partition stack into partition BSS/ZI.
Hi,
We are now allocating partition’s stack inside linker script file, and there are two external patches trying to move these stack definitions into partition’s BSS/ZI:
https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/5374/5https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/6508/1
The advantages:
- Simplify the linker script/sct templating, stack items can be saved.
- Stack as global just uses 8 bytes alignment instead of wider bytes alignment (such as 32 bytes in most of the cases).
- Stack is private data, putting private data together is a direct way.
And the disadvantages:
- Stack memory and global memory may affect each other – actually we don’t apply such protecting mechanism now?
Anything I missed? Any feedbacks are welcome. We would collect your feedbacks and update the patches if they are still available after your comments. Other proposals are welcome, too.
Thanks.

Hi all,
The build system currently fetches the latest "master" of tf-m-tests repo for building, if auto-download dependencies mode is used (which is the default).
This would break the building when:
* TF-M and tf-m-tests have dependency changes got merged
* A developer is working with a local copy of TF-M that has not been updated to the latest.
* The developer does a clean build with auto-downloading
* The build system fetch the latest tf-m-tests repo which is not compatible with the local copy of TF-M
We've seen this kind of issue reported in mailing list.
To solve this problem, the proposal<https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/7550> of fixing the "TFM_TEST_REPO_VERSION" to a hash or tag is raised.
With this change, the build system would download a compatible version always.
The version of the test repo is not required to be updated for every commit in the test repo.
(Guide line on when to update the version is required and it's still under discussion - welcome for ideas.)
Developers want a different version can always override "TFM_TEST_REPO_PATH" to a local copy to build.
Best Regards,
Kevin
Dear All,
The Secure Enclave patches have been merged and caused a minor source structure change.
The platform so far named musca_b1 became musca_b1/sse_200, because we added support to the other subsystem on the Musca-B1 board, musca_b1/secure_enclave.
So to build onto the old Musca-B1 platform the -DTFM_PLATFORM=musca_b1/sse_200 flag will be needed.
All information about the Secure Enclave topic can be found in these rsts:

Dear All,
Following the tech forum presentation (back in 6th August) I uploaded the draft design document for the Secure Enclave topic:
https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/5653
I also updated the first implementation of the proposed solution for the Musca-B1 board with minimal features, marked as WIP:
https://review.trustedfirmware.org/q/topic:%22Secure+Enclave%22+(status:ope…
Limitations, missing features, notes:
* No support for isolation level2 on SSE-200
* Protected Storage is an Application RoT partition, but PS also moved to Secure Enclave
* Some regression tests running on secure side of SSE-200 fail as all messages are forwarded with the same client ID to Secure Enclave
* All IPC message forwarding is a blocking call
* Only one message is put into the mailbox at a time
* Musca-B1 related documentation is not complete yet
* Generated files are not committed, manifest parser should be run before build.
* The BL0 component mentioned in the tech forum presentation is not uploaded, as it is based on the new cmake system, and not so interesting right now
* Cmake changes are rudimentary, will be rebased to new cmake system.
Any feedback very welcomed!

Hi,
PSA Level 3 certification mandates protection against physical attack at a certain extent.
MCUboot v1.7.0 release already contains SW countermeasures against fault injection attacks. These can be used at device boot-up time.
But fault injection attacks are not targeting only the device boot-up time, instead they could be applied against the runtime firmware.
The following design proposal is addressing this threat:

https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/5653
I also updated the first implementation of the proposed solution for the Musca-B1 board with minimal features, marked as WIP:
https://review.trustedfirmware.org/q/topic:%22Secure+Enclave%22+(status:ope…
Limitations, missing features, notes:
* No support for isolation level2 on SSE-200
* Protected Storage is an Application RoT partition, but PS also moved to Secure Enclave
* Some regression tests running on secure side of SSE-200 fail as all messages are forwarded with the same client ID to Secure Enclave
* All IPC message forwarding is a blocking call
* Only one message is put into the mailbox at a time
* Musca-B1 related documentation is not complete yet
* Generated files are not committed, manifest parser should be run before build.
* The BL0 component mentioned in the tech forum presentation is not uploaded, as it is based on the new cmake system, and not so interesting right now
* Cmake changes are rudimentary, will be rebased to new cmake system.
Any feedback very welcomed!

Hi,
There is a CI notification mail list enabled, it aims to send the failure info of TF-M nightly job to the subscribers without spam to a big group.
If you are interested in the master branch nightly verification status, feel free to add your email to the list.
Subscribing:
https://lists.trustedfirmware.org/mailman/listinfo/tf-m-ci-notifications
The notification only triggers a notification when CI build or test fail occur from the nightly job.
Thanks

IAR released a new service pack late last week, version 8.50.9.
This service pack includes a new compiler version, which although
thoroughly tested, apparently introduced a new intricate bug, which
causes at least the musca_a mcuboot to fail.
The issue has been identified and fixed, and the next release should
have this fix.
I have no date for when this will be released or in what form.
So for the time being, please do not upgrade above version 8.50.7.
Thanks,
Thomas

Hi,
We are now allocating partition's stack inside linker script file, and there are two external patches trying to move these stack definitions into partition's BSS/ZI:
https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/5374/5https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/6508/1
The advantages:
- Simplify the linker script/sct templating, stack items can be saved.
- Stack as global just uses 8 bytes alignment instead of wider bytes alignment (such as 32 bytes in most of the cases).
- Stack is private data, putting private data together is a direct way.
And the disadvantages:
- Stack memory and global memory may affect each other - actually we don't apply such protecting mechanism now?
Anything I missed? Any feedbacks are welcome. We would collect your feedbacks and update the patches if they are still available after your comments. Other proposals are welcome, too.
Thanks.

Hi Platform owners, explicitly ST, Nordic and NXP owners.
Could you confirm that this patch<https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/6678> wouldn't break your platforms.
The patch changes the build system to put the UART drivers to the SPRTL.
It is important to improve the isolation implementations.
For more details, please see the patch.
We will wait for one more week and merge it as is if no feedbacks.
Any feedbacks from others are welcome always.

Kevin

Subject: Re: [TF-M] Externally override flash layout and pin configurations (out-of-tree platforms?)
Hi,
In the ideal case with HAL API, the platform itself can decide which variant's layout to be applied, selected by build system switches or just some header files.
Because SPM could get what it needed by HAL API run-time.
It can be mostly done inside the platform folder if one platform has the variants management already.
Others please give inputs as this is a very useful topic, we can list down the problem we met during integration first.

Subject: [TF-M] Externally override flash layout and pin configurations (out-of-tree platforms?)
Hi all
In our work integrating TFM into Zephyr and the nRF Connect SDK, it's apparent that the integration would be a lot smoother if we could specify TFM's flash layout externally.
Looking into it a bit, I came up with a draft proposal here: https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/trusted-firmware-m/pull/18/files<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.co…>
We could just modify our own platforms to this and be happy, but I'm wondering if there would be interest in standardizing something.
Now, a related problem is: How can we make it easier to add multiple boards based on a single chip. For the Nordic platforms we've already separated the chip-specific code (nRF9160/nRF5340) from the board specific code (DK/PDK), and for the boards, it really boils down to pin configurations.
We could allow to specify pins via Cmake instead, to easily allow users to support their production PCBs.
But (this was brought up in the above PR) we can also solve both problems by adding support for out-of-tree platforms.
For example, allow TFM to be built like so:
cmake -DTFM_PLATFORM=../../../../my_custom_board ...
This would probably be less work that designing a new interface for overriding flash layouts and pin configurations.
What are your thoughts?

Hi Everyone,
I would like to propose the deprecation of platform MPS2/SSE-200_AWS because the platform is no longer available to use: https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/ARM-Ltd-DesignStart-FPGA-on-Cloud-Cor…
As per the process, this proposal is open for discussion for a period of 4 weeks and if there are no major objections, the platform should be marked as deprecated and removed from TF-M master after next release.

Hi Thomas,
Here is the fix:

Actually since the CMake refactor the default value can be overridden from the command line, so it is possible to enable the logging even in Release builds.

Subject: [TF-M] MCUBOOT_LOG_LEVEL description confusing/wrong
The description of how to set MCUBOOT_LOG_LEVEL in tfm_secure_boot.rst appears wrong, or at least unclear.
---
- MCUBOOT_LOG_LEVEL:
Can be used to configure the level of logging in MCUBoot. The possible
values are the following:
- **LOG_LEVEL_OFF**
- **LOG_LEVEL_ERROR**
- **LOG_LEVEL_WARNING**
- **LOG_LEVEL_INFO**
- **LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG**
The logging in MCUBoot can be disabled and thus the code size can be reduced
by setting it to ``LOG_LEVEL_OFF``. Its value depends on the build type. If
the build type is ``Debug`` and a value has been provided (e.g.
through the
command line or the CMake GUI) then that value will be used, otherwise it is
``LOG_LEVEL_INFO`` by default. In case of different kinds of ``Release``
builds its value is set to ``LOG_LEVEL_OFF`` (any other value will be
overridden).
---
I tried enabling MCUBOOT_LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG by adding -DMCUBOOT_LOG_LEVEL=LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG to the cmake command line, but that set the level to -1. I also tried -DMCUBOOT_LOG_LEVEL=4, which also set it to -1. I then noticed that the default setting in CMakeCache.txt is "MCUBOOT_LOG_LEVEL:STRING=INFO", so I instead used -DMCUBOOT_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG, which worked.
I would also like to be able to use logging for Release builds, as this may assist chasing down optimization issues.

Thanks for the thoughts. Can I assume that you suggest to stay with option 1?
The semantic versioning was proposed several times and sounds reasonable because it gives a meaning to each version component so downstream projects could rely on it.
Yes, a version of a product represents some quality status but in my view that depends on convention. For downstream projects reference, TF-M issues releases periodically so a version represents a stable point in time and occasionally brings new features / fixes.
Cheers,
Anton

Hi,
I miss something here. What is being discussed, what is the purpose of changing version numbering?
* Is more granularity needed and each or some lesser quality levels should be assigned a version number too? Currently a new version number is assigned if a new SW set reaches “Release” quality level. (Whatever that might be.)
* Is there need for expressing backwards compatibility better?
* Is the aim to enhance existing version numbers just by making them following a well-defined standard?
I have the feeling different people are talking about different sub-topics.
I think the most important purpose or having release numbers is to express quality. It could help on version numbers if quality would be defined cleaner.

I would vote for Option 3, and “.2” - Backport the fixing patches to the existing v1.x.0 tag. – This provides the flexibility to have a released version with critical fixes only.
If TF-M users want all the changes between the release and the fix they can take the master branch as well.

Hi David,
I think we can leave tag v1.x.0 as it is and create a new tag v1.x.1 for this critical fix on master branch. It can be more easier to distinguish between tags.

Hi Anton,
Option 3 is a good.
Just to clarify, for example, if v1.x.0 released, and we got a critical fix 2 months later. Then in your proposal, we:
* Tag the current master which includes the fixing patch (and may also include some other merged/ongoing features after last release) as v1.x.1, or
* Backport the fixing patches to the existing v1.x.0 tag (keep it in a new branch) and tag the tip of the v1.x release branch as v1.x.1

Hi,
I would like to continue the discussion on TF-M semantic versioning started on the last tech forum.
Currently TF-M uses a loosely defined versioning schema with major and minor versions, following TF-A.
There are several calls to switch TF-M to semantic versioning.
Here is the reminder of the meaning: (https://semver.org/) v1.2.3 :
1. MAJOR version when you make incompatible API changes,
2. MINOR version when you add functionality in a backwards compatible manner, and
3. PATCH version when you make backwards compatible bug fixes.
This is a good way to go for a mature project but TF-M will overkill from everyday re-versioning because of new patches. It was discussed on the forum and several options were proposed:
1. Do nothing, reasonably bumping up versions on release time only.
2. Use semantic versioning ignoring changes in PATCH by keeping it 0. So upcoming version could be: v1.2.0, next v1.3.0 and nothing in between.
3. Use option 2 but change PATCH when critical code change delivered within release cadence like a security vulnerability fix to let down-stream project relay on a fixed version.
4. Other ideas?
Personally I tend to follow option 3 but looking for the community input.
Thanks,
Anton.

Hi,
In Linaro Virtual Connect 20 (LVC20), Shebu and I presented a session "Scalable Security Using Trusted Firmware-M Profiles" (ref[1]).
It basically shows an example of using FreeRTOS+TF-M Profile Small on armv8m devices to connect to AWS cloud through a Gateway.
The key features demonstrated in the example:
* Symmetric cipher based secure connection - TLS PSK
* Usage of (symmetric) attestation
* Device-Gateway-Cloud secure channel example
A blog (https://www.trustedfirmware.org/blog/amazon-freertos-tfm-blog/) is shared in tf.org if you want to know more details of the design.
Thanks.

Hi Andrej,
Thanks for reporting this. It looks like the dependency on TFM_TEST_PATH matters. We need to define something for managing these generated files.

Subject: Re: Generated files location
Hi,
As an intermediate step, we've made a modification to the file generation code so that file can be generated without cmake being run.
This generation can be run by:
```
python3 tools/tfm_parse_manifest_list.py -m tools/tfm_manifest_list.yaml -f tools/tfm_generated_file_list.yaml -o <output dir> ```
Which will output the files into the specified output directory. if the `-o` flag is not provided then the files will be generated into the TFM source tree.
Note that this method still requires knowledge of the location of some dependencies, as this cannot be provided by cmake. When run in standalone mode, these paths are gathered from environment variables, and generation will fail if those variables are not set. Thus:
```
env TFM_TEST_PATH=$(realpath ../tf-m-tests/test) python3 tools/tfm_parse_manifest_list.py -m tools/tfm_manifest_list.yaml -f tools/tfm_generated_file_list.yaml
```

Hi Anton
If it's not possible to avoid a file generation now, it's good to have pre-generated files for a most typical configuration (l2, IPC etc.).
As I mentioned before, ideally to use TFM as a real component/framework without generation of any source code.
BUT If you believe, this requirement breaks a TFM concept, just tell us.

Hi Anton,
Another option:
3. Avoid the mandatory on-the-fly generation.
Try to make TFM a component/framework, which is configurable by compile & run time parameters.

Subject: [TF-M] Generated files location
Hi,
Some source files in TF-M are templated and generated inside /<build_dir>/generated/ on the fly as a part of build process. This guaranty consistency between templates and generated but might make a trouble for IDE, where not all source files exist at the first run.
I see 2 options for solution:
1. Explicitly generate those files via cmake as a part of IDE project creation (1 time action)
2. Relay on CMSIS Pack for IDE, where generated files must be presents Any alternative thoughts?

Hi,
Well, yes. Not sure what backwards compatibility would mean in a complex application with a configurable set of services and service capabilities. Semantic versioning could work quite well for components (i.e. secure service implementations) though.

Hi,
I miss something here. What is being discussed, what is the purpose of changing version numbering?
* Is more granularity needed and each or some lesser quality levels should be assigned a version number too? Currently a new version number is assigned if a new SW set reaches “Release” quality level. (Whatever that might be.)
* Is there need for expressing backwards compatibility better?
* Is the aim to enhance existing version numbers just by making them following a well-defined standard?
I have the feeling different people are talking about different sub-topics.
I think the most important purpose or having release numbers is to express quality. It could help on version numbers if quality would be defined cleaner.

Subject: Re: [TF-M] Semantic versioning
I would vote for Option 3, and “.2” - Backport the fixing patches to the existing v1.x.0 tag. – This provides the flexibility to have a released version with critical fixes only.
If TF-M users want all the changes between the release and the fix they can take the master branch as well.

Hi Anton,
Option 3 seems more reasonable to me.
Hi David,
I think we can leave tag v1.x.0 as it is and create a new tag v1.x.1 for this critical fix on master branch. It can be more easier to distinguish between tags.

Hi Anton,
Option 3 is a good.
Just to clarify, for example, if v1.x.0 released, and we got a critical fix 2 months later. Then in your proposal, we:
* Tag the current master which includes the fixing patch (and may also include some other merged/ongoing features after last release) as v1.x.1, or
* Backport the fixing patches to the existing v1.x.0 tag (keep it in a new branch) and tag the tip of the v1.x release branch as v1.x.1
Thanks.

Hi,
I would like to continue the discussion on TF-M semantic versioning started on the last tech forum.
Currently TF-M uses a loosely defined versioning schema with major and minor versions, following TF-A.
There are several calls to switch TF-M to semantic versioning.
Here is the reminder of the meaning: (https://semver.org/) v1.2.3 :
1. MAJOR version when you make incompatible API changes,
2. MINOR version when you add functionality in a backwards compatible manner, and
3. PATCH version when you make backwards compatible bug fixes.
This is a good way to go for a mature project but TF-M will overkill from everyday re-versioning because of new patches. It was discussed on the forum and several options were proposed:
1. Do nothing, reasonably bumping up versions on release time only.
2. Use semantic versioning ignoring changes in PATCH by keeping it 0. So upcoming version could be: v1.2.0, next v1.3.0 and nothing in between.
3. Use option 2 but change PATCH when critical code change delivered within release cadence like a security vulnerability fix to let down-stream project relay on a fixed version.
4. Other ideas?
Personally I tend to follow option 3 but looking for the community input.

Hi all,
I abandoned the idea to build at once tf-m and zephyr and switched to separated compilations.
Now, I have both secure and non-secure binaries but I’m not sure how to concatenate and sign them.
I found the assemble.py script but I don’t know whether it is the correct one or where to find the signing_layout.
To be more specific, for my current target musca-a (going to switch to musca-s as soon as it arrives):
* I built TF-M
* I imported and included in my zephyr application both libpsa_api_ns.a and libtfm_s_veneers.a
* I build my zephyr application
Now (I suppose) I have to
· merge zephyr.bin with tfm_s.bin
· sign the merged binary
· concatenate with bl2
I could not find any reference how to correctly do these last steps.
Best,

I'm not sure if this helps, but here is an example of how we sign the binaries for the MPS2 AN521, for example, after building the TF-M and Zephyr NS images, plus MCUBoot:

Hi all,
I abandoned the idea to build at once tf-m and zephyr and switched to separated compilations.
Now, I have both secure and non-secure binaries but I’m not sure how to concatenate and sign them.
I found the assemble.py script but I don’t know whether it is the correct one or where to find the signing_layout.
To be more specific, for my current target musca-a (going to switch to musca-s as soon as it arrives):
* I built TF-M
* I imported and included in my zephyr application both libpsa_api_ns.a and libtfm_s_veneers.a
* I build my zephyr application
Now (I suppose) I have to
· merge zephyr.bin with tfm_s.bin
· sign the merged binary
· concatenate with bl2
I could not find any reference how to correctly do these last steps.

Hi,
As an intermediate step, we've made a modification to the file generation code
so that file can be generated without cmake being run.
This generation can be run by:
```
python3 tools/tfm_parse_manifest_list.py -m tools/tfm_manifest_list.yaml -f tools/tfm_generated_file_list.yaml -o <output dir>
```
Which will output the files into the specified output directory. if the `-o` flag is not provided then the files will be generated into the TFM source tree.
Note that this method still requires knowledge of the location of some
dependencies, as this cannot be provided by cmake. When run in standalone mode,
these paths are gathered from environment variables, and generation will fail if
those variables are not set. Thus:
```
env TFM_TEST_PATH=$(realpath ../tf-m-tests/test) python3 tools/tfm_parse_manifest_list.py -m tools/tfm_manifest_list.yaml -f tools/tfm_generated_file_list.yaml
```

Hi Anton
If it’s not possible to avoid a file generation now, it’s good to have pre-generated files for a most typical configuration (l2, IPC etc.).
As I mentioned before, ideally to use TFM as a real component/framework without generation of any source code.
BUT If you believe, this requirement breaks a TFM concept, just tell us.

Hi Anton,
Another option:
3. Avoid the mandatory on-the-fly generation.
Try to make TFM a component/framework, which is configurable by compile & run time parameters.

Subject: [TF-M] Generated files location
Hi,
Some source files in TF-M are templated and generated inside /<build_dir>/generated/ on the fly as a part of build process. This guaranty consistency between templates and generated but might make a trouble for IDE, where not all source files exist at the first run.
I see 2 options for solution:
1. Explicitly generate those files via cmake as a part of IDE project creation (1 time action)
2. Relay on CMSIS Pack for IDE, where generated files must be presents
Any alternative thoughts?

Hi,
With the upcoming release of TF-M 1.2, we are considering deprecating the GNU Arm compiler v6.3.1 to be able to reallocate testing bandwidth to newer and more up to date versions ( 7+ )
Before doing so I would like to ask for the community's feedback. Is anyone using this compiler, and if so, would you be affected by the change? Are there any other reasons we should consider keeping it in to the test plan?
Regards,
Minos

Just adding some hints from the TF-M point of view.
The TF-M test cases are RTOS independent.
And test entry functions are provided for integrating the tests to any RTOS - test_app()
You just need to call them in your application thread.
Of course, you need to implement the os_wrapper APIs as well.
You can refer to the os_wrapper_cmsis_rtos_v2.c for details.
The old build system of TF-M used to provide libraries of the tests.
The new build system is not having those yet. So the source codes need to be built.
The test case libraries should be added back to the new build system and then integrating tf-m tests to RTOS should be much more direct.
Best Regards,
Kevin

I agree with you, also reading the documentation https://ci.trustedfirmware.org/view/TF-M/job/tf-m-build-docs-nightly/lastSt… (even if it seems obsolete since some files are missing). For example, are now the static library for the test included in the one you mentioned?
I'm using the module offered by zephyr to build and import the tfm, but I get a lot of missing references.
Further, I searched in the install directory built by tfm and I cannot really find all of them.

There is currently an issue filed in Zephyr to add a new sample application that will make it easy to run the PSA API tests via Zephyr, but it we're currently working on finalizing higher priority changes before the 1.2 code freeze later this week: https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/issues/29476
So, there isn't an 'easy' way to build these tests in Zephyr today out of the box using Zephyr as the RTOS on the NS side, unless you want to have a go at it yourself in the short term while we try to make sure Zephyr is ready for the changes in T-M 1.2.

Just when you think you have nailed everfything down, you decide to start with a fresh clone and stuff don't build anymore ;)
See: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/6766
I have now gone over and tried building everything that has IAR support and here are my findings.
I have used the following patches:
https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/tf-m-tests/+/5978https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/6766
I have built for the following targets:

mps2/an519
mps2/an521
mps2/an539
mps2/sse-200_aws
mps3/an524
cypress/psoc64
nxp/lpcxpresso55s69 (-DBL2=False as bl2 support appears to have been added recently to this target)
stm/nucleo_l552ze_q
stm/stm32l562e_dk
The mps2/fvp_sse300 requires a compiler with support for the M55, and the IAR compiler with support for this is not yet released.
I have run tests on the following targets:

The cypress/psoc64 board I have appears to be obsolete now and I could not flash the secure image to it.
The nuvoton/m2351 appears to have IAR support, but it appears untested as it gives linking errors for the bl2 and NS startup files.
There are some old and new warnings for type issues and some other minor things.
The QCBOR NaN tests are still failing, see:
https://developer.trustedfirmware.org/T700
This really is an issue where the ARM ABI and IEEE 754 are incompatible and we are following the ARM ABI. In reality neither ARMCLANG nor GNUARM are fully ARM ABI compliant as they are not ignoring the relevant bits.

Just when you think you have nailed everfything down, you decide to
start with a fresh clone and stuff don't build anymore ;)
See: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/6766
I have now gone over and tried building everything that has IAR support
and here are my findings.
I have used the following patches:
https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/tf-m-tests/+/5978https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/6766
I have built for the following targets:
musca_a
mps2/an519
mps2/an521
mps2/an539
mps2/sse-200_aws
mps3/an524
cypress/psoc64
nxp/lpcxpresso55s69 (-DBL2=False as bl2 support appears to have been
added recently to this target)
stm/nucleo_l552ze_q
stm/stm32l562e_dk
The mps2/fvp_sse300 requires a compiler with support for the M55, and
the IAR compiler with support for this is not yet released.
I have run tests on the following targets:
musca_a
mps2/an519
mps2/an521
mps2/an539
The cypress/psoc64 board I have appears to be obsolete now and I could
not flash the secure image to it.

Hi Antonio,
There is currently an issue filed in Zephyr to add a new sample application
that will make it easy to run the PSA API tests via Zephyr, but it we're
currently working on finalizing higher priority changes before the 1.2 code
freeze later this week:
https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/issues/29476
So, there isn't an 'easy' way to build these tests in Zephyr today out of
the box using Zephyr as the RTOS on the NS side, unless you want to have a
go at it yourself in the short term while we try to make sure Zephyr is
ready for the changes in T-M 1.2.
Best regards,
Kevin

Hi all,
I wanted to use some other RTOS in the NS side while testing tf-m.
Is there a simple way to use the Zephyr kernel or FreeRTOS in the tf-m-test (-DTEST_S=ON, -DTEST_NS=ON) instead of the default RTX?
Best,

Hi all,
As the isolation level 3 PoC targets for AN521 and MUSCA_B1 only at the first stage, two level-3-specific linker script files are created for these two platforms.
And the common linker scripts are not changed now.
This would avoid affecting the platforms who do not support isolation level 3 with a big changed linker script.
The patch for specific linker scripts can be found here:

Hi all,
We've finished the PoC of isolation level 3 along with the new TFM HAL on the feature branch.
And now we are migrating the patches to master branch by cherry-picking, squashing and refining.
Here are the several topics ongoing parallel:

And the HAL API docs:

A new branch created for two repos 'TF-M/tf-m-tests' and 'TF-M/trusted-firmware-m', this feature branch is for isolation related patches merging.
The POC patches would come in following days, first platform would be AN521. If you want to try this branch, please:

Hi Everyone
This is a heads to notify that we have some patches to upgrade to mbedtls-2.24 tag and we hope to merge them today. The patches can be found here:
https://review.trustedfirmware.org/q/topic:%22mbedtls-2.24%22+(status:open%…
Please be aware that there is a change in tf-m-tests as well which means that if the build system is setup to download latest master of tf-m-tests, you need to update TF-M to latest master as well for the build to succeed. This is not ideal workflow, but we are thinking about some system to avoid this kind of problems.
Best Regards
Soby Mathew

The platform has been deprecated and is scheduled for removal from upstream after TFvMv1.2 release. Patches to warn about deprecation of this platform have been merged https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/6516

As mentioned in https://git.trustedfirmware.org/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m.git/tree/docs/contr…, we would like to propose the deprecation of AN539 MPS2 platform and remove the same from TF-M master after next release. As per the process, this proposal will be open for discussion for a period of 4 weeks and if there are no major objections, the platform will be marked as deprecated.

Hi,
I think this effort should be done together with other tf.org projects using the same technology (Sphinx). Can you pls sync up with the TF-A team?
Related to the details:
* I suggest referring to the RTD style guide [1] instead of Python. The text is much smaller, does not cover topics we don’t need and your points 1-5 are aligned. Point 6 is conflicting as RTD allows 6 levels.
* I disagree on 11. “A drawing is worth 1e3 words”, and hiding these at the end is not a good practice.
* 12: do we really need this? How often are people doing such things?
* 13 is ok 😊
* 14: might be too strict. What if a term is over used and may have a different meaning is some sections (i.e. platform, host, etc...).

Subject: [TF-M] [RFC] TF-M Documentation Contribution Format
Hi,
As the project matures, and the community grows, I would like to revive an old discussion and suggest that we set
some guidelines for contributing to the project's documentation.
I would like to propose that we establish a minimal sub-set of rules, based on the
official Python guidelines<https://devguide.python.org/documenting/#style-guide> which is the most widely used notation. This offers compatibility with
existing tools for proofing and producing said documentation.
The following rules should be considered:
1. H1 document title headers should be expressed by # with over-line (rows on top and bottom) of the text
2. Only ONE H1 header should allowed per document, ideally placed on top of the page.
3. H2 headers should be expressed by * with over-line
4. H2 header's text should be UNIQUE in per document basis
5. H3 headers should be expressed by a row of '='
6. H4 headers should be expressed by a row of '-'
7. H3 and H4 headers have no limitation about naming. They can have similar names on the same document, as long as they have different parents.
8. H5 headers should be expressed by a row of '^'
9. H5 headers will be rendered in document body but not in menus on the navigation bar.
10. Do not use more than 5 level of heading
11. When writing guide, which are expected to be able to be readable by command line tools, it would be best practice to add long complicated tables, and UML diagrams in the bottom of the page and using internal references(auto-label). Please refer to the `tfm_sw_requirement.rst<https://git.trustedfirmware.org/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m.git/tree/docs/getti…>` as an example
12. No special formatting should be allowed in Headers ( code, underline, strike-through etc )
13. Long URLs and external references should be placed at the bottom of the page and referenced in the body of the document
14. New introduced terms and abbreviations should be added to Glossary and directly linked by the `:term:` notation across all documents using it.
When something new, which is not covered is required, the rule should be first to follow the any reference to of an existing document, and the Python Documentation rules otherwise.
Please let me know if you have any questions/objection or proposals or new rules you would like to consider. Any feedback is more than welcome.

Hi all,
We've finished the PoC of isolation level 3 along with the new TFM HAL on the feature branch.
And now we are migrating the patches to master branch by cherry-picking, squashing and refining.
Here are the several topics ongoing parallel:
* Linker script changes for isolation L3<https://review.trustedfirmware.org/q/topic:%22linker_script_isolation%22+(s…>
* Isolation HAL API<https://review.trustedfirmware.org/q/topic:%22isolation_api_implementation%…>

Hi,
Thank Tamas for the scenario, this is a good example.
There were some queries and initial investigations before, which shows that some users want to protect the implementation of their services, and check if there are mechanisms to help on that. I think isolation level 3 is applicable to this scenario.

Hi Andrej,
the following scenario comes to my mind:
* There is a product where secure services from different vendors are merged together and these are together make up the ARoT code.
* There is a vendor who has a novel algorithm what he wants to protect against reverse engineering.
* Image is delivered to the device in encrypted format. But on the device it is decrypted when moved to primary slot.
* This secure partition needs the L3 isolation to be hidden from the other secure services within ARoT code.

Subject: Re: [TF-M] Another build issue
Hi Chris,
I agree with you. It looks like PSA arch test doesn't check the correct clone destination.
According to https://github.com/ARM-software/psa-arch-tests/blob/master/api-tests/CMakeL…, PSA arch test checks whether psa_qcbor exists.
However, the actual clone destination of psa_qcbor folder is under CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR as https://github.com/ARM-software/psa-arch-tests/blob/master/api-tests/CMakeL… sets.
Therefore, I guess this issue will be triggered as long as CMake script execution is in the different directory as binary folder is.
I changed the destination to ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${PSA_TARGET_QCBOR} in check step and it looks like the issue is fixed.
IMOO, the quick workaround is to entirely remove the build directory.
I will discuss with Raef to determine a final solution.
Thanks a lot for reporting this issue!

This one is a failure when re-configuring the build (even though the configuration is the same):

(less output, eventually fails)
fatal: destination path 'psa_qcbor' already exists and is not an empty directory.
CMake Error at build_GNUARM_Release/lib/ext/psa_arch_tests-src/api-tests/CMakeLists.txt:324 (message):
git clone failed for https://github.com/laurencelundblade/QCBOR.git
I suspect that this might be due to the PSA stuff, rather than TFM per se, but it manifests when building TFM...

Hi Anton
If it's not possible to avoid a file generation now, it's good to have pre-generated files for a most typical configuration (l2, IPC etc.).
As I mentioned before, ideally to use TFM as a real component/framework without generation of any source code.
BUT If you believe, this requirement breaks a TFM concept, just tell us.

Hi Anton,
Another option:
3. Avoid the mandatory on-the-fly generation.
Try to make TFM a component/framework, which is configurable by compile & run time parameters.

Subject: [TF-M] Generated files location
Hi,
Some source files in TF-M are templated and generated inside /<build_dir>/generated/ on the fly as a part of build process. This guaranty consistency between templates and generated but might make a trouble for IDE, where not all source files exist at the first run.
I see 2 options for solution:
1. Explicitly generate those files via cmake as a part of IDE project creation (1 time action)
2. Relay on CMSIS Pack for IDE, where generated files must be presents
Any alternative thoughts?

Hi Chris,
I agree with you. It looks like PSA arch test doesn't check the correct clone destination.
According to https://github.com/ARM-software/psa-arch-tests/blob/master/api-tests/CMakeL…, PSA arch test checks whether psa_qcbor exists.
However, the actual clone destination of psa_qcbor folder is under CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR as https://github.com/ARM-software/psa-arch-tests/blob/master/api-tests/CMakeL… sets.
Therefore, I guess this issue will be triggered as long as CMake script execution is in the different directory as binary folder is.
I changed the destination to ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${PSA_TARGET_QCBOR} in check step and it looks like the issue is fixed.
IMOO, the quick workaround is to entirely remove the build directory.
I will discuss with Raef to determine a final solution.
Thanks a lot for reporting this issue!
Best regards,
Hu Ziji

Looks like that test is indeed not supported on PSoC64. The error message threw me because it says what the valid values are for -DTARGET (which does include one containing "psoc64"), but it doesn't tell me what -DTAREGT was actually set to.

We definitely used to be able to at least build ConfigPsaApiTestIPC.cmake (and the level 2 version) for PSoC64 under the old build system. It looks like we've always done so with one of the other PSA test suites also selected, which doesn't seem to be an option with the new build system.

Hi, yes apologies that seems to have been lost. I was doing my best to track changes in the original cmake but it seems this one got missed.
Can I ask - for the vendor triplet compilers (arm-etc-eabi-gcc), is it a compiler that the vendor is developing? In the new buildsystem, it might make sense to create a new compiler toolchain file that is almost identical to the GNU one, which would allow the two compilers to diverge slightly (in command-line options etc) if necessary.

Tárgy: Re: [TF-M] Behavior difference in Crypto IPC vs Library modes
Hi Soby and Summer,
Thank you for pointing me to the complete chain of patches. I didn’t notice. With this, PSoC64 behaves quite well without any buffer changes. In fact, the results look better than previously published AN521 results – what are the latest AN521 results? It looks like 250 and 251 now passes but failed in previous AN521 results. Again, this is for PSoC64
As for Musca-B1, it looks like it is better (CC312 enabled). 241/242 is still failing and 250 is failing (passes for PSoC64). Disabling CC312 will result in 241/242 passing
Thank you,

Subject: RE: Behavior difference in Crypto IPC vs Library modes
Hi Raymond,
Some of the PSA Crypto tests require a larger buffer size and previously this was done within the build system. This size is required irrespective of IPC or Library mode. The new build system broke this buffer size configuration for API tests and the patch mentioned by Summer resolves that. Could you try with that and let us know ?
Regarding Musca-B1, we switched to using Cryptocell as default for that platform recently. There are some limitations for the CC-312 with respect to some crypto APIs and I suspect the failures are related to this. I will create a ticket to look further into this. Meanwhile could you try whether you have failures if you disable CC-312 for Musca-B1 :

Subject: Re: [TF-M] Behavior difference in Crypto IPC vs Library modes
Hi Soby,
Thank you for that fix! It does indeed fix this particular issue when using IPC.
On another note, I’ve been running Musca-B1 and the results differ from what you sent out in the past for AN521. Specifically, Musca-B1 fails 219, 241, 242, and 243. Is this something you can have a look at on the Musca-B1 side?
With that said, I’ve been running on PSoC64 and I can reproduce the AN521 results. I needed the patch you provided below but I was still running into memory issues and I had to bump the following (both of them).
#define TFM_CRYPTO_IOVEC_BUFFER_SIZE (8120)
#define TFM_CRYPTO_ENGINE_BUF_SIZE (0x5040) /* >8KB for EC signing in attest */
If I do not bump these, I would see 239 to 244 fail. Might you have any comments on the larger size requirements for these? Possibly when running in IPC mode?
Thank you,

Subject: RE: Behavior difference in Crypto IPC vs Library modes
Hi Raymond,
After further analysis, it seems to me that having separate checks for Library mode and IPC mode is the easiest way to go. The current design was done in such a way that both Library and IPC mode can reuse the same crypto service API involving IOVECs. Any change to how the API is invoked from the tfm_crypto_call_sfn() will have ramifications for Library mode.
I have done a patch with different checks for IPC and Library mode here: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/6432 . The patch relaxes the checks for IPC mode to allow empty buffers and hardens the checks for Library mode. Hopefully this should resolve the issue.

Subject: RE: Behavior difference in Crypto IPC vs Library modes
Hi Raymond,
As you pointed out, the difference in this case basically boils down to how the 2 models handles empty buffers. In the library mode, the empty buffers are passed down to the target API whereas the IPC mode optimizes the empty buffer from the IOVEC by reducing the buffer length. This results in different error codes in the 2 modes.
The sanity check of IOVEC in incoming sizes is needed and I less inclined to remove it or enhance it. The error code certainly seems to be one way to resolve this problem. The other option is to make the IPC mode IOVEC less aggressive in optimizing away zero buffers from IOVEC (Need more investigation) thus attaining parity with library mode.

Subject: [TF-M] Behavior difference in Crypto IPC vs Library modes
Hi all,
I’m seeking some assistance in determining the correct fix for a difference in behavior between IPC and Library modes that cause the Crypto PSA Arch Tests to fail when using IPC. Specifically, I’ve been testing on a PSoC64 for IPC mode and Musca-B1 for Library mode. The problem I am encountering is related to this check in crypto (e.g. crypto_aead.c in secure_fw/partitions/crypto).
if ( !((in_len == 2) || (in_len == 3)) || (out_len > 1)) {
return PSA_ERROR_CONNECTION_REFUSED;
}
This is true for direct function call since in_len and out_len are sizes of in_vec[] and out_vec[]. However, in library mode, in_len and out_len is not based on the size of in_vec[] and out_vec[] but based on the contents. Specifically, out_len is determined via the following in tfm_crypto_call_sfn().
/* Check the number of out_vec filled */
while ((out_len > 0) && (msg->out_size[out_len - 1] == 0)) {
out_len--;
}
>From the above, if out_size (which is passed in by the user) is 0, the resultant out_len will be 0. The out_len is passed into the crypto function and PSA_ERROR_CONNECTION_REFUSED is returned due to the check above. PSA, on the other hand, expects PSA_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED to be returned. Btw, in_len suffers from the same issue.
I’m not sure if the check above is valid for IPC mode. I’ve removed the check temporarily to avoid the problem. However, if the check still makes sense, possibly it should return PSA_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED instead of PSA_ERROR_CONNECTION_REFUSED.
Thank you. I look forward to comments.

Hi Raymond,
Do you cherry-pick all the series patches (topic:

I testes on AN521, without all the series patches, 219, 241, 242, and 243 are failed. But when you cherry-pick all series patches, they can pass.
And I think patch https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/6251 already increase the size for CRYPTO_ENGINE_BUF_SIZE.
Thanks,

Subject: Re: [TF-M] Behavior difference in Crypto IPC vs Library modes
Hi Soby,
Thank you for that fix! It does indeed fix this particular issue when using IPC.
On another note, I’ve been running Musca-B1 and the results differ from what you sent out in the past for AN521. Specifically, Musca-B1 fails 219, 241, 242, and 243. Is this something you can have a look at on the Musca-B1 side?
With that said, I’ve been running on PSoC64 and I can reproduce the AN521 results. I needed the patch you provided below but I was still running into memory issues and I had to bump the following (both of them).
#define TFM_CRYPTO_IOVEC_BUFFER_SIZE (8120)
#define TFM_CRYPTO_ENGINE_BUF_SIZE (0x5040) /* >8KB for EC signing in attest */
If I do not bump these, I would see 239 to 244 fail. Might you have any comments on the larger size requirements for these? Possibly when running in IPC mode?
Thank you,
Ray

Subject: RE: Behavior difference in Crypto IPC vs Library modes
Hi Raymond,
After further analysis, it seems to me that having separate checks for Library mode and IPC mode is the easiest way to go. The current design was done in such a way that both Library and IPC mode can reuse the same crypto service API involving IOVECs. Any change to how the API is invoked from the tfm_crypto_call_sfn() will have ramifications for Library mode.
I have done a patch with different checks for IPC and Library mode here: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/6432 . The patch relaxes the checks for IPC mode to allow empty buffers and hardens the checks for Library mode. Hopefully this should resolve the issue.

Subject: RE: Behavior difference in Crypto IPC vs Library modes
Hi Raymond,
As you pointed out, the difference in this case basically boils down to how the 2 models handles empty buffers. In the library mode, the empty buffers are passed down to the target API whereas the IPC mode optimizes the empty buffer from the IOVEC by reducing the buffer length. This results in different error codes in the 2 modes.
The sanity check of IOVEC in incoming sizes is needed and I less inclined to remove it or enhance it. The error code certainly seems to be one way to resolve this problem. The other option is to make the IPC mode IOVEC less aggressive in optimizing away zero buffers from IOVEC (Need more investigation) thus attaining parity with library mode.

Subject: [TF-M] Behavior difference in Crypto IPC vs Library modes
Hi all,
I’m seeking some assistance in determining the correct fix for a difference in behavior between IPC and Library modes that cause the Crypto PSA Arch Tests to fail when using IPC. Specifically, I’ve been testing on a PSoC64 for IPC mode and Musca-B1 for Library mode. The problem I am encountering is related to this check in crypto (e.g. crypto_aead.c in secure_fw/partitions/crypto).
if ( !((in_len == 2) || (in_len == 3)) || (out_len > 1)) {
return PSA_ERROR_CONNECTION_REFUSED;
}
This is true for direct function call since in_len and out_len are sizes of in_vec[] and out_vec[]. However, in library mode, in_len and out_len is not based on the size of in_vec[] and out_vec[] but based on the contents. Specifically, out_len is determined via the following in tfm_crypto_call_sfn().
/* Check the number of out_vec filled */
while ((out_len > 0) && (msg->out_size[out_len - 1] == 0)) {
out_len--;
}
>From the above, if out_size (which is passed in by the user) is 0, the resultant out_len will be 0. The out_len is passed into the crypto function and PSA_ERROR_CONNECTION_REFUSED is returned due to the check above. PSA, on the other hand, expects PSA_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED to be returned. Btw, in_len suffers from the same issue.
I’m not sure if the check above is valid for IPC mode. I’ve removed the check temporarily to avoid the problem. However, if the check still makes sense, possibly it should return PSA_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED instead of PSA_ERROR_CONNECTION_REFUSED.
Thank you. I look forward to comments.

Ah okay. This is the behavior we saw with the other VS generators, and why we added the check to make sure "Unix Makefiles" or "Ninja" was used. Because it sets the C compiler to MSVC, it won't correctly compile TFM (which currently only supports ARMClang, GCC, and IAR). While there are other symptoms, such as the issues with python etc, this is the main one.
I'd advise to just use -G"Unix Makefiles" (or ninja)

Thanks. I'm interested if you've managed to build TFM using the visual studio generator? That check was actually added because we had a problem with at least one of the visual studio generators (VS10) setting the C compiler to `MSVC`. If you've managed to get it to build with VS16, then we can look in to adding that as a known good generator.

Hi,
While digging the clean issue brought up by Soby, I started wondering if external dependency handling would be better in a slightly different way. There is a lot of hack in the build system around including the psa-arch test project, mostly to work around cmake limitations on namespaces and symbol separation. A stronger barrier could eliminate the mess. In TS we use the following pattern (let's call it "Internal Project"):
* External dependencies are fetched with fetch_content()
* Right after the fetch, execute_process() is called to start the build of the component. So external component builds configuration time.
* The project get's installed into a directory and the main project is using the installed content, possibly through find_package().
* Benefits:
* This gives a stronger separation, elimination any name clash between the main project and the external dependency. Also global settings cannot collide like when a dependency sets CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE.
* Faster main project build times, as external projects are only built once.
* Makes it more "natural" to use an externally built binary for an external component. This might be handy from QA perspective if binary releases are going to happen. (If ever of course.)
* Strong separation could allow using different version of the same tools for components. (i.e. main project is built with GCC, component with IAR.)
* Drawbacks:
* It is harder to develop the external component together with tf-m s tracking changes is more difficult. Might be a problem if debugging tf-m vs external component interaction. This should be rare and might be an acceptable issue.
* It is unnatural to run builds configuration time in cmake world.
* Configuration phase will take longer.
* Since the build happens right where the external component is added (point A), cmake execution flow might need to be different to ensure all information needed to configure the external component is present at point A.
* Since external component is built by a separated cmake run, tool detection happens separate. This means the same tools will be searched for multiple times. Initial cache files can be a workaround.
This is very similar to how external projects work in cmake, but makes better integration possible. The main project can use information from the dependency as it's source and output files become available configuration time. In turn external project changes are harder to track.

Hi,
I tried to dig deeper into this, but the cmake command used by Soby fails for me.
"
[ 33%] Performing patch step for 'psa_arch_tests-populate'
error: patch failed: api-tests/platform/targets/tgt_dev_apis_tfm_an521/nspe/pal_driver_intf.c:128
...
"
It would be nice to understand why cmake fails to clean properly, but well, I cannot deep-dive due to the above. What I wanted to check is if https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.15/prop_tgt/ADDITIONAL_CLEAN_FILES.html could be used to get "make clean" remove the psa-arch test binary directory. But:
* I am not sure which build directory is used. I have the feeling we use ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/psa_api_tests and not psa_arch_tests_BINARY_DIR, which would be build\lib\ext\psa_arch_tests-build. Strange.
* ADDITIONAL_CLEAN_FILES was introduced in cmake v3.15 and if my memories are correct tf-m allows an older version if not using IAR.
Soby: can you please test if ADDITIONAL_CLEAN_FILES works? This solution would give a more streamlined.

Thanks Soby for sorting it out.
Sounds like a right way to go and cleanall shall do that job.
For me it looks like an exceptional case while the main scenario for a daily development shall be the one, described by Karl : downloaded dependencies explicitly specified by paths outside of TF-M tree via command line, or via project config file (suggested).
And true, both cases shall be explicitly documented.

Thanks Karl, Gyorgy for your inputs.
I agree with the principle that `BUILD` shall be only folder the cmake modifies. The trouble is, after a `make clean`, there are still artefacts from the previous configuration which affects the new build and gives the wrong output. Hence the suggestion to introduce a `cleanall` custom target which endeavours to clean the all the remnant config information from previous build and leave auto cloned dependant repositories untouched (or maybe print some status info).
Does that sound like a good plan then ?

Subject: Re: [TF-M] New TF-M Build doesn't track config changes
Hi,
I think the build directory is owned by cmake and the same rules shall apply to all files there. Also the only directory cmake does modify without the users consent shall be the build directory. As long as cmake is owning the external dependencies it is the responsibility of the build system to keep the dependencies in a healthy state and to ensure the correct version is built. To do this safely the "clean" operation, which is used to get out of a "non-operational" state, shall fix the dependencies too.
So the correct operation (in my opinion) is to make the dependency download work in the following way:
* If the dependency is already present at the target location, cmake shall use it as is. Possibly some status information should be printed (i.e. version number, if the git working copy is dirty etc...)
* If not cmake shall do the fetch.
This way if the user specify an external location (one not in the build directory), cmake will "export" the dependency when the first fetch is done, and do no modifications after. This gives us a well-defined act of handing over the responsibility of keeping the dependency clean.
As far as I can see (was not digging into the details) this more or less matches how the current implementation works, and what is missing is more details in the documentation.

Hi Soby,
I met the same problem before, and I think your suggestions are helpful. There might be more check needed if the 'make clean' does not delete the auto cloned repos. Because the dependencies may update by a new TFM commit.
The new build system supports to specify the patch of each dependency, which can avoid clone automatically to the build folder each time. Hope it can mitigate the inconvenient scenario.

Subject: [TF-M] New TF-M Build doesn't track config changes
Hi,
With the new build system, TF-M downloads all dependant repositories to the BUILD folder as part of CMAKE configuration. CMake does provide `make clean` target to clean the build and rebuild but this doesn't track any config changes between the builds. Previously, the CMake workflow was to delete all contents in the BUILD folder before re-configuring for a new build but now this means the developer has to re-download all the dependant git repositories before the project can be build again. This can be a slow and cumbersome process for developers. Deleting the CMakecache.txt doesn't seem to solve the problem either.
The most obvious solution is to move the cloned repositories outside the BUILD/ folder , so we can follow the previous workflow of deleting the BUILD folder before re-build. The sample test sequence to reproduce the problem is given below:
/* Build secure regressions test suite */
$ make clean; cmake .. -DTFM_PLATFORM=mps2/an521 -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../toolchain_GNUARM.cmake -DTEST_S=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug; make install
/* reconfigure and build PSA Crypto API test suite */
$ make clean; cmake .. -DTFM_PLATFORM=mps2/an521 -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../toolchain_GNUARM.cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DTEST_PSA_API=CRYPTO; make install
Built binary is still for regression test suite.
There are multiple suggestions to solve the problem, One is to move the clone repositories outside the BUILD/ folder, or introduce a build target like `make cleanall` which does the equivalent of rm -rf !(lib) within the BUILD folder (i.e the build target will remove all folders except the lib folder which has the cloned repositories). Please let us know of your suggestions on this.
Best Regards
Soby Mathew
Thanks for the notes. Since last week I've now:
1. downloaded today's latest repo (12 October, commit 8bebd05745a8b27dccc6403f0215fa6e39de3bc1, and
2. added the VS compiler to the "valid" checks at CmakeLists.txt line 17.
Using the -G option allows the make to complete (apparently), but the install script fails (in both GitBash and CMD).
Thanks for any help.

Hi,
Thanks Soby for sorting it out.
Sounds like a right way to go and cleanall shall do that job.
For me it looks like an exceptional case while the main scenario for a daily development shall be the one, described by Karl : downloaded dependencies explicitly specified by paths outside of TF-M tree via command line, or via project config file (suggested).
And true, both cases shall be explicitly documented.
Hope it helps,
Anton

I agree with the principle that `BUILD` shall be only folder the cmake modifies. The trouble is, after a `make clean`, there are still artefacts from the previous configuration which affects the new build and gives the wrong output. Hence the suggestion to introduce a `cleanall` custom target which endeavours to clean the all the remnant config information from previous build and leave auto cloned dependant repositories untouched (or maybe print some status info).
Does that sound like a good plan then ?

Subject: [TF-M] Behavior difference in Crypto IPC vs Library modes
Hi all,
I'm seeking some assistance in determining the correct fix for a difference in behavior between IPC and Library modes that cause the Crypto PSA Arch Tests to fail when using IPC. Specifically, I've been testing on a PSoC64 for IPC mode and Musca-B1 for Library mode. The problem I am encountering is related to this check in crypto (e.g. crypto_aead.c in secure_fw/partitions/crypto).
if ( !((in_len == 2) || (in_len == 3)) || (out_len > 1)) {
return PSA_ERROR_CONNECTION_REFUSED;
}
This is true for direct function call since in_len and out_len are sizes of in_vec[] and out_vec[]. However, in library mode, in_len and out_len is not based on the size of in_vec[] and out_vec[] but based on the contents. Specifically, out_len is determined via the following in tfm_crypto_call_sfn().
/* Check the number of out_vec filled */
while ((out_len > 0) && (msg->out_size[out_len - 1] == 0)) {
out_len--;
}
>From the above, if out_size (which is passed in by the user) is 0, the resultant out_len will be 0. The out_len is passed into the crypto function and PSA_ERROR_CONNECTION_REFUSED is returned due to the check above. PSA, on the other hand, expects PSA_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED to be returned. Btw, in_len suffers from the same issue.
I'm not sure if the check above is valid for IPC mode. I've removed the check temporarily to avoid the problem. However, if the check still makes sense, possibly it should return PSA_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED instead of PSA_ERROR_CONNECTION_REFUSED.
Thank you. I look forward to comments.

Hi,
There is a patch that should allow better configuration of the IRQ tests / other platform-related tests, as well as clarifying the documentation.
https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/6350https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/tf-m-tests/+/6351
Any reviews would be appreciated

Subject: Re: [TF-M] Disabling IRQ test with new build system
Hi Chris,
Thanks a lot for reporting this.
It looks like the IRQ test case is enabled on NS side as long as the Platform service is enabled. The IRQ test service in SPE is controlled by `TFM_ENABLE_IRQ_TEST`, which, however, is neither explicitly configured in CMake nor exported for manual configuration. Therefore IRQ test service is not enabled by default.
Thus the IRQ test case will hang the execution and configuration of IRQ test in command line won’t take effect.
I’ve been looking for the solution. Just need some time to sort out the dependencies of those test control flags in the new build system. 😊
Sorry for any inconvenience.

Hi,
The IRQ test part of the CORE_TEST is all conditioned on TFM_ENABLE_IRQ_TEST, and docs/reference/services/core_test_services_integration_guide.rst states that “A platform can skip IRQ handling test by setting ``TFM_ENABLE_IRQ_TEST`` to ``OFF`` in its cmake configuration file.”, but doing so doesn’t seem to actually work. I tried a number of options to the cmake command (including -DTFM_ENABLE_IRQ_TES=OFF, -U TFM_ENABLE_IRQ_TEST), too, but I can’t figure out how to avoid that test.

Subject: [TF-M] New TF-M Build doesn't track config changes
Hi,
With the new build system, TF-M downloads all dependant repositories to the BUILD folder as part of CMAKE configuration. CMake does provide `make clean` target to clean the build and rebuild but this doesn't track any config changes between the builds. Previously, the CMake workflow was to delete all contents in the BUILD folder before re-configuring for a new build but now this means the developer has to re-download all the dependant git repositories before the project can be build again. This can be a slow and cumbersome process for developers. Deleting the CMakecache.txt doesn't seem to solve the problem either.
The most obvious solution is to move the cloned repositories outside the BUILD/ folder , so we can follow the previous workflow of deleting the BUILD folder before re-build. The sample test sequence to reproduce the problem is given below:
/* Build secure regressions test suite */
$ make clean; cmake .. -DTFM_PLATFORM=mps2/an521 -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../toolchain_GNUARM.cmake -DTEST_S=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug; make install
/* reconfigure and build PSA Crypto API test suite */
$ make clean; cmake .. -DTFM_PLATFORM=mps2/an521 -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../toolchain_GNUARM.cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DTEST_PSA_API=CRYPTO; make install
Built binary is still for regression test suite.
There are multiple suggestions to solve the problem, One is to move the clone repositories outside the BUILD/ folder, or introduce a build target like `make cleanall` which does the equivalent of rm -rf !(lib) within the BUILD folder (i.e the build target will remove all folders except the lib folder which has the cloned repositories). Please let us know of your suggestions on this.
Best Regards
Soby Mathew
Hi Soby,
I met the same problem before, and I think your suggestions are helpful. There might be more check needed if the 'make clean' does not delete the auto cloned repos. Because the dependencies may update by a new TFM commit.
The new build system supports to specify the patch of each dependency, which can avoid clone automatically to the build folder each time. Hope it can mitigate the inconvenient scenario.

Hi all,
I'm seeking some assistance in determining the correct fix for a difference in behavior between IPC and Library modes that cause the Crypto PSA Arch Tests to fail when using IPC. Specifically, I've been testing on a PSoC64 for IPC mode and Musca-B1 for Library mode. The problem I am encountering is related to this check in crypto (e.g. crypto_aead.c in secure_fw/partitions/crypto).
if ( !((in_len == 2) || (in_len == 3)) || (out_len > 1)) {
return PSA_ERROR_CONNECTION_REFUSED;
}
This is true for direct function call since in_len and out_len are sizes of in_vec[] and out_vec[]. However, in library mode, in_len and out_len is not based on the size of in_vec[] and out_vec[] but based on the contents. Specifically, out_len is determined via the following in tfm_crypto_call_sfn().
/* Check the number of out_vec filled */
while ((out_len > 0) && (msg->out_size[out_len - 1] == 0)) {
out_len--;
}
>From the above, if out_size (which is passed in by the user) is 0, the resultant out_len will be 0. The out_len is passed into the crypto function and PSA_ERROR_CONNECTION_REFUSED is returned due to the check above. PSA, on the other hand, expects PSA_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED to be returned. Btw, in_len suffers from the same issue.
I'm not sure if the check above is valid for IPC mode. I've removed the check temporarily to avoid the problem. However, if the check still makes sense, possibly it should return PSA_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED instead of PSA_ERROR_CONNECTION_REFUSED.
Thank you. I look forward to comments.

Hi,
The IRQ test part of the CORE_TEST is all conditioned on TFM_ENABLE_IRQ_TEST, and docs/reference/services/core_test_services_integration_guide.rst states that "A platform can skip IRQ handling test by setting ``TFM_ENABLE_IRQ_TEST`` to ``OFF`` in its cmake configuration file.", but doing so doesn't seem to actually work. I tried a number of options to the cmake command (including -DTFM_ENABLE_IRQ_TES=OFF, -U TFM_ENABLE_IRQ_TEST), too, but I can't figure out how to avoid that test.

* Please send me both of your images, and if you have the corresponding *.axf files, and if you know the commit-id when they were built.

Hi Raymond,
The build command and the hex creation are correct.
Could you try to erase the entire eFlash before programming it?
It can be done with Keil MDK, or you can create a hex file with srec_cat which only contains 0xFF bytes and program that one to the board.
Let me know whether does it solved the issue.

Hi,
FIY this variable in the Linux world used to be called "CROSS_COMPILE" and both TF-A and OP-TEE is using the same convention. Would it be possible to align with this and rename the variable? For backwards compatibility it could be possible to use both for a while, and issue a warning when the with a deprecation message when the old one is sued.

Hi, yes apologies that seems to have been lost. I was doing my best to track changes in the original cmake but it seems this one got missed.
Can I ask - for the vendor triplet compilers (arm-etc-eabi-gcc), is it a compiler that the vendor is developing? In the new buildsystem, it might make sense to create a new compiler toolchain file that is almost identical to the GNU one, which would allow the two compilers to diverge slightly (in command-line options etc) if necessary.

Hi Øyvind
Yes, you are right, we don't use wchar_t within TF-M and it does seem a trivial optimization without much benefit for TF-M other than introducing incompatibilities. Could you submit a patch to remove the same from GCC and ARMCLANG ?

Hi Antonio,
And welcome to the TF-M community. To get a better understanding of your issue it I would like to ask from some further details, such as the HEAD of the TF-M which you are trying to build, as well as the HEAD of the test branche.
There has been a large overhaul of several components on the TF-M project, including the build system, so it would be good to have a common point of reference /
By examples, do you refer to the official user guide?
https://ci.trustedfirmware.org/view/TF-M/job/tf-m-build-docs-nightly/lastSt…
For Musca_A you only need the hex file to flash it, which is generated using the srec_cat command mentioned above which utilises the platform specific offsets and merges the signed secure and non-secure binaries with the bootloader.
If you are facing any issues flashing the HEX file, make sure that you have an up-to date daplink firmware.
https://community.arm.com/developer/tools-software/oss-platforms/w/docs/554…
If your output folder contains the HEX file, you can try flashing it by dragging and dropping, and see if it runs the regression tests.
Regards,

Subject: [TF-M] Running Tests on Musca-A
Dear all,
I’m a researcher exploring TF-M.
I have a Musca-A board, and I was able to build it with tests.
Now, it seems that the examples running the tests [1] are outdated: I simply do not have the same files.
My understanding is that I should merge two files (secure and non-secure) but it is not clear which ones and how the offset are computed.
Can somebody help me on this?
The output files in the /bin folder are: bl2, tfm_ns, and tfm_s in .axf, .bin, .elf, .hex, .map; tfm_s_ns.bin; and tfm_s_ns_signed.bin.
Best,

Yes, it seems like the core tests slipped through conversion. I've already had a report of this and got a patch together but it needs some thorough testing since it affects the linking order.
I'll notify here once the patch is submitted for review. Should be this morning.

Subject: [TF-M] CORE_TEST and the new build system
It seems that docs/reference/services/core_test_services_integration_guide.rst hasn’t been updated to reflect the new build system (it says to build using ConfigCoreTest.cmake). That config isn’t mentioned in docs/getting_started/tfm_build_instruction.rst.
So how do I build the CORE_TEST stuff with the new build system (I’m particularly interested in the IRQ test).

Hi guys. I'm curious why -fshort-wchar is enabled for ARMCLANG and GNUARM (not IAR, interestingly). This should have little or no impact since wchar_t is so rarely used, and causes incompatibility when I try to link my Zephyr app with TF-M libs.

Would it be possible to know what commit hash of TF-M you are currently using Kevin?
I had thought there was now some error handling in place for this but it's possible that it doesn't work as it should.

Hi,
I assume you are building under windows, if that is true, add a -G"Unix Makefiles" in the command line would make it work as a quick fix, since cmake treat the default build system under windows as MSVC.
We are trying to create a patch to enhance this part.

Hi,
With the new build system, TF-M downloads all dependant repositories to the BUILD folder as part of CMAKE configuration. CMake does provide `make clean` target to clean the build and rebuild but this doesn't track any config changes between the builds. Previously, the CMake workflow was to delete all contents in the BUILD folder before re-configuring for a new build but now this means the developer has to re-download all the dependant git repositories before the project can be build again. This can be a slow and cumbersome process for developers. Deleting the CMakecache.txt doesn't seem to solve the problem either.
The most obvious solution is to move the cloned repositories outside the BUILD/ folder , so we can follow the previous workflow of deleting the BUILD folder before re-build. The sample test sequence to reproduce the problem is given below:
/* Build secure regressions test suite */
$ make clean; cmake .. -DTFM_PLATFORM=mps2/an521 -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../toolchain_GNUARM.cmake -DTEST_S=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug; make install
/* reconfigure and build PSA Crypto API test suite */
$ make clean; cmake .. -DTFM_PLATFORM=mps2/an521 -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../toolchain_GNUARM.cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DTEST_PSA_API=CRYPTO; make install
Built binary is still for regression test suite.
There are multiple suggestions to solve the problem, One is to move the clone repositories outside the BUILD/ folder, or introduce a build target like `make cleanall` which does the equivalent of rm -rf !(lib) within the BUILD folder (i.e the build target will remove all folders except the lib folder which has the cloned repositories). Please let us know of your suggestions on this.
Best Regards
Soby Mathew

Hi Raymond,
Thanks for reporting the issue!
The observed behaviour has two reason:
- In the new build system the default CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release. In this case the logging is disabled in MCUboot to get smaller binary. You can set manualy to Debug in the command line to enable logging from bootloader
* This commit 7d591a684b4abb0f61fbba8668dd6ea7b4b68698 introduced a crash in Musca S1/B1. Fix is ongoing.

Subject: [TF-M] Musca-B1 and new build system
Hi all,
I am attempting to build Musca-B1 with the latest in master but I'm not able to get it to run (nothing shows on the UART). At a minimum, the User Guide is out of date in terms of how the final hex is created. So, I have a couple questions.
1. Is the latest tested with Musca-B1?
2. Can I obtain some updated information on how to build and create an image for Musca-B1?
Thank you,
Ray

Subject: [TF-M] Removal of MCUboot fork from TF-M
Hi,
In the last few quarter TF-M team have worked on actively to upstream the TF-M related features from the forked MCUboot repo to the original repository.
This activity has been finished recently and as a result the MCUboot fork has been removed from TF-M repo.
Currently TF-M exclusively relies on MCUboot project as a secure bootloader. From now on all new development will be directly contributed to the upstream repo.
List of feature which were upstreamed:
* HW rollback protection
* HW key integration
* Data exchange between MCUboot and runtime firmware
* RAM_LOAD boot mode
* DIRECT_XIP boot mode

Hello Jaouen,
I have a development issue when running TFM download process on the STM32L562.Print a error log"[ERR] Image in the secondary slot is not valid!" when download tfm_s_enc_sign.bin.ALL other 3 bin(tfm_s_sign.bin,tfm_ns_sign.bin,tfm_ns_enc_sign.bin) download success.
I follow the document UM2671 chapter 11.4 Download a new firmware image.
The project is en.stm32cubel5_v1-3-0.zip,file:Projects\STM32L562E-DK\Applications\TFM
Steps to reproduce:
1.run Projects\STM32L562E-DK\Applications\TFM\TFM_SBSFU_Boot\MDK-ARM\regression.bat to init device
2.build TFM_SBSFU_Boot application,TFM_Appli secure application,TFM_Appli non-secure application,Build TFM_Loader application
3.run Projects\STM32L562E-DK\Applications\TFM\TFM_SBSFU_Boot\MDK-ARM\TFM_UPDATE.bat to programing into STM32L5 internal and external Flash memory
4.success to run into app
5.press user button (blue) during board reset, the user enters local loader menu.
6.use ymodem to download tfm_s_enc_sign.bin to secure image
7.reset and then print error log "[ERR] Image in the secondary slot is not valid!"
Reason:
1.hash verify not pass because after decrypt, the image not same with origin image.log as below:
=====================================================
[INF] verify counter 0 1000000 1000000
[INF] counter 0 : ok
[INF] hash256 : 54, cc, 2c, 4c, 97, b5, 55, 68,
[INF] hash256 buf : cd, 76, a3, a1, cb, 1, 4d, bc,
[ERR] Image in the secondary slot is not valid!
======================================================
Does anyone know what I39m doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
I would merge this one as it has been put there review for a while, thanks all the reviewers.
This would provide a basic shape while we are creating new features, also could be viewed better after rendered.
There would be many points can be updated later, let’s try to use it and see how it works – Create issues at https://developer.trustedfirmware.org/ and assign to me if there are, reply here is also workable.
Thanks.

Subject: [TF-M] [RFC] The code review guideline
Hi,
We are creating one document to describe the code review guidelines:
https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/5372
The goal of this document is to introduce the source management level concepts to be followed while reviewing a code – which try to simplify the contribution (but burdens the reviewers? 😉).
Difference to the `coding style`:
* It focuses more on the source placement, interface definition and including, etc.
As this document is keeping evolving in a period, the plan is we merge a simple version as start and adding more contents by new patches, so please give enough comments if you have, and don’t forget the concept: we want to make things rational and simple.
Thanks.

Hi, I haven't dug into the details here but just wanted to point out that there is an x509 library in Mbed TLS.
Thanks, Ronald.

Thanks for the clarification. This would mean that given the current PSA Crypto design, the only way to achieve this would be to implement a custom RoT service in SPE. Hence the NSPE cannot make use of the key for arbitrary signing operation.

I see, thanks. We use certificate chains when firmware images need from different vendors need to be deployed in different privilege levels or multiple boot stages are present in A-profile. The Platform boot guide document https://developer.arm.com/documentation/den0072/0101/ mentions this as well. Possibly this is an enhancement to MCUBoot (Boot loader for TF-M).
After talking with Adrian, I think there is consensus that certificate chain is a useful feature to have. So from my point of view, if there is some collaborative effort to develop such a service as TF-M specific extension, I think it would be very useful to the community.

Hi all,
Just to let you know, some time ago Cypress has officially released the PSoC64 platform. With this, we are planning to stop supporting old PSoC64 development kits and move our focus on the new release boards.
This is mainly because the old boards were programmed with an old firmware which is not compatible with the changes we do to the TFM code and it would be an unnecessary overhead to support both versions.
Please let us know if it causes any issues.
The new PSoC64 kit:

Hi all
The new buildsystem has now been merged to both the trusted-firmware-m and
tf-m-tests repositories.
There are a few known issues:
* STM platforms run into issues with flash space when building under debug
configuration.
* nxp/lpcxpresso66s69 fails regression tests - this is being looked into as a
priority.
For building with the new buildsystem, there have been some changes to the
command-line. An example invocation is shown below.
```
cd <TFM root dir>
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -DTFM_PLATFORM=mps2/an521 -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../toolchain_GNUARM.cmake
make
```
CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE and TFM_PLATFORM are the only required arguments.
CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE is conceptually a replacement for COMPILER. It is a path to
one of the three toolchain files in the TFM root dir.
* <TFM root dir>/toolchain_GNUARM.cmake
* <TFM root dir>/toolchain_ARMCLANG.cmake
* <TFM root dir>/toolchain_IARARM.cmake
TFM_PLATFORM is conceptually a replacement for TARGET_PLATFORM. Unlike
TARGET_PLATFORM it takes as an argument the path between `platform/ext/target`
and the target dir. For example:
* -DTFM_PLATFORM=musca_s1
* -DTFM_PLATFORM=cypress/psoc64
* -DTFM_PLATFORM=nxp/lpcxpresso55s69
PROJ_CONFIG has now been removed. Instead configuration has been simplified
using composable variables.
Enable regression tests: -DTEST_NS=ON -DTEST_S=ON
Enable IPC mode: -DTFM_PSA_API=ON
Set isolation level: -DTFM_ISOLATION_LEVEL=2
So instead of ConfigRegressionIPC:
-DTEST_NS=ON -DTEST_S=ON -DTFM_PSA_API=ON
For integration with other projects, there is a new option:
-DNS=[ON/OFF]
If NS is set to OFF, TFM will build only the secure image (as bin tfm_s.axf) and
the PSA api as a static library. This should make integration with other
projects much simpler.
Other miscellaneous improvements:
* Full ninja support
* Automatic dependency management
* generation of axf, elf, hex and bin files for all outputs
* Full support for partial rebuilding and parallel building
* Modular support for crypto accelerators
* better integration of multi-core support
For full details of buildsystem variable changes, refer to
`docs/getting_started/tfm_build_instructions.rst` and
`config/config_default.cmake`
Raef
Thanks all for the inputs.
May I collect answers for these questions:
* Does the build system/IDE support sub-project for components and finally assemble them into one final image? The intention is to check the possibility to integrate TFM with sub-projects instead of a whole item.
* Is there scenarios that dynamic sections being added into sct/ld, how do you deal with this? A reference link is also helpful.
The intention:
TF-M is actually a set of components, and the secure firmware part (secure boot is another image binary so not listed here) contains:
1. Libraries.
2. Partitions.
3. SPM.
4. Image assembling with all above components.
The straight way is to generate ABC as *.a and assemble them together into a final image.
Then go through each component, A and C can be configured in C domain, as what they needs maybe just some feature flags. B is a bit special but we still could provide specification defined .json and its compatible .yaml manifest and pre-generated C-based manifest with preprocessors.
D is the hard part, as it needs special arrangement inside ld/sct, which make this discussion happen. Even the ‘include’ and ‘preprocessor’ are supported inside sct/ld, we still can not avoid the partitions including part, we can not do a foreach on the partition list which involve the preprocessor complexity into sct/ld. Looks like the templating can’t be avoided here. For platform specific requirements like:
* Some platform won’t separate RODATA and CODE;
* Some platform got non-continuous memory regions for special data;
Put a platform dedicated sct/ld into the platform folder would help; but to mitigate the effort of platform, a common sct/ld needs to be abstracted.
Thanks again for your great feedback.

Hello Gyrogy:
Your comment raises the question. Why is TF-M so complex and does it need to be the only answer? Either it needs to be simplified or respect must be paid to support in commercial tools as a first class citizen. Commercial tools are the path for large scale product developers. If they can’t engage TF-M with commercial tools or SiP tools then developers will face challenges to develop with it. It there are challenges they may even avoid using it in favor of simplified solutions much as they do today.
Multiple target use cases will be using various components of TF-M (MbedTLS with and without hardware interfaces, Attestation, Audit Logs, etc.):
1. Arm v8M – Cortex-M33, M35, M55
2. Dual Core Systems – Multiple possible configs
3. Cortex v6M of v7M – M0, M0+, M3 & M4
4. TF-A
5. Other Cortex-R & Cortex-A implementations
This reality argues for a more modular build packaging system that allows for it.
All the best!

Hi Andrej,
TF-M relies heavily on compile time configuration, and C is quiet limited on that. This means we cannot rely on the only standardized part of the “ecosystem” solely, and we have to use non-standard tools. I would love to have a portable automation solution supported by most IDEs.
Yes, a lot of projects can go well with a single configuration header but unfortunately TF-M is more complex than that:
* How could we get information from manifest files to the build?
* How could we generate signed binary packages for the boot-loader?
* How could we control memory map in sync with the hw configuration in source files? (The current pre-processing linker files approach is already non-standard.)
None of these can be solved with IDEs in a portable way. I understand that adding IDE support for TF-M is challenging but the root cause is not how we implemented the build system, but how IDEs can handle the complexity needed by TF-M.

Hi Ken,
So we are using one default/typical configuration. If any change in it, a user have to do changes manually which are not clear without deeper knowledge of the TFM project.
But this is the issue of the TF-M chosen approach - fully rely on cmake preprocessing.
The proposal is to use approach which is good for all worlds (cmake and IDEs) and which is used by all embedded MCU open-source projects like MbedTLS, FreeRTOS, lwIP, FNET and etc.
Which is to have only one set of platform-independent files and the framework configuration from a user/project configuration file.
It will work for both worlds, will solve all configuration issues we have, and will make TF-M easy to use and more popular.
I am talking about this from very beginning. As no steps in right direction, we have a forked TF-M for our SDK.
Thanks George for support ;)

* Is there a scenario that someone wants to add more partitions other than the default ones into your system, and how could they do that? I believe the existing .sct/.ld do not support extra partitions out of the default ones unless some manually modification is done.
We need to support more components (partition is the direct example), so in this case, the sct/ld can’t be avoided to be modified.
Or do you think if we put a specific .sct/.ld under nxp folder would work if there is no other partitions are needed?
Thanks.

Hi,
Good point, this is an important factor. I think templating can be IDE compliant as long as the IDE does support pre-build step(s). The current build flow already contains steps requiring this and thus I don’t think situation would be much worse with any mentioned solution than it is today.

Hi Ken,
I think templating is a good approach here, the current C preprocessor based solution is a very limited implementation of this.
I see two main contenders for templating:
1. cmake has built in support for templating with the configure_file() [1] command. This would move ownership of this information info the build scripts, which are the focus point for such info already. A cmake based solution would feel more native to the existing system. On the other hand other solutions might have more features, which could lead to easier to read template files. Also cmake as a template engine is not that widely adopted.
2. jinja2 [2]. A widely adopted and more feature rich templating engine. TF-M already uses it for manifest file handling. I suggest using yahsa [3] instead of a custom pyhton script as the cli frontend though. This could speed up development as long as no complex processing is needed and the templates can be filled based on “simple” values.
Which of the above is the best for the task depends on template file readability and on complexity of the task. It could be nice if a clean split could be made, and we could stop using the C preprocessor based processing completely.
“Not sure if all these format support #include”
The build system works around that by implementing a compiler specific cmake function to add the pre-processing step for compilers not supporting pre-processing out of the box.

Subject: Re: [TF-M] Proposal to separate SCT/LD into each platform folder
Hi,
During the level3 prototyping, we found using a unified sct/ld/file would be hard because we are trying to cover platform-specific setting in ONE place.
The biggest concern of preventing spreading the LD is: if there are COMMON changes then every platform source needs to be updated.
I believe the COMMON change is the arrangement of ARoT and PRoT, those platform-specific things such as CODE_SRAM and MPU alignment issue should not be covered inside the common sct/ld/icf.
Not sure if all these format support #include but as we are using a template so it should be possible to put COMMON settings inside a COMMON template and let platform to contain these common part and then add the specific settings.
I have a rough idea (see above) and need more investigation, request for ideas/concerns about this part.
Thanks.

Subject: [TF-M] Proposal to separate SCT/LD into each platform folder
Hi all,
There are many differences in linker scripts between each platform. Using a common_s.sct/ld makes it too complicated.
And at the same time, in order to achieve isolation level 3, the position of the sessions in scatter and linker script file needs to be adjusted.
The common linker scripts would be more complicated with isolation L3.
So I would like to propose to have dedicated linker scripts for platforms with enough differential arrangements.
What’s your opinion on this?
Best regards,
Shawn
Thanks Gyorgy for your inputs.
I haven't checked out the details of all the pre-build processing, but it does seem complex to solve this in a portable way, but one suggestion from me is that perhaps the output from the pre-build processing should be a standard C header and from then on the standardized C pre-processing can be used for the rest of the configuration.
For example, instead of the pre-build step generating producing the final linker script , it could instead generate a C header file which then can be consumed by the linker script. Here only the C header is generated and the linker script is untouched.
This means that, if the IDEs can find a path to generate this C header file somehow (either via IDE configuration or different custom pre-build processing), then rest of the setup continues in a C standard way.

Hi Andrej,
TF-M relies heavily on compile time configuration, and C is quiet limited on that. This means we cannot rely on the only standardized part of the "ecosystem" solely, and we have to use non-standard tools. I would love to have a portable automation solution supported by most IDEs.
Yes, a lot of projects can go well with a single configuration header but unfortunately TF-M is more complex than that:
* How could we get information from manifest files to the build?
* How could we generate signed binary packages for the boot-loader?
* How could we control memory map in sync with the hw configuration in source files? (The current pre-processing linker files approach is already non-standard.)
None of these can be solved with IDEs in a portable way. I understand that adding IDE support for TF-M is challenging but the root cause is not how we implemented the build system, but how IDEs can handle the complexity needed by TF-M.

Hi Ken,
So we are using one default/typical configuration. If any change in it, a user have to do changes manually which are not clear without deeper knowledge of the TFM project.
But this is the issue of the TF-M chosen approach - fully rely on cmake preprocessing.
The proposal is to use approach which is good for all worlds (cmake and IDEs) and which is used by all embedded MCU open-source projects like MbedTLS, FreeRTOS, lwIP, FNET and etc.
Which is to have only one set of platform-independent files and the framework configuration from a user/project configuration file.
It will work for both worlds, will solve all configuration issues we have, and will make TF-M easy to use and more popular.
I am talking about this from very beginning. As no steps in right direction, we have a forked TF-M for our SDK.
Thanks George for support ;)

Hi,
Thanks for the input - this should be the goal we are approaching. I believe the updated build system has changed something, and I will raise an proposal based on that during October, let's discuss when the proposal is done.
Before that, two more questions:
* So if a user have to modify the file manually, will they work on the .sct directly, or the .sct.template?
* Does your IDE support pre-build function? What kinds of command it could support? An IDE specific script or general shell commands or python?
Thanks.

Subject: Re: [TF-M] Proposal to separate SCT/LD into each platform folder
Hi Andrej,
Sounds like your IDE is using the default .sct/.ld file, may I ask some a question that:
* Is there a scenario that someone wants to add more partitions other than the default ones into your system, and how could they do that? I believe the existing .sct/.ld do not support extra partitions out of the default ones unless some manually modification is done.
We need to support more components (partition is the direct example), so in this case, the sct/ld can't be avoided to be modified.
Or do you think if we put a specific .sct/.ld under nxp folder would work if there is no other partitions are needed?
Thanks.

Hi,
Good point, this is an important factor. I think templating can be IDE compliant as long as the IDE does support pre-build step(s). The current build flow already contains steps requiring this and thus I don't think situation would be much worse with any mentioned solution than it is today.

Hi Ken,
I think templating is a good approach here, the current C preprocessor based solution is a very limited implementation of this.
I see two main contenders for templating:
1. cmake has built in support for templating with the configure_file() [1] command. This would move ownership of this information info the build scripts, which are the focus point for such info already. A cmake based solution would feel more native to the existing system. On the other hand other solutions might have more features, which could lead to easier to read template files. Also cmake as a template engine is not that widely adopted.
2. jinja2 [2]. A widely adopted and more feature rich templating engine. TF-M already uses it for manifest file handling. I suggest using yahsa [3] instead of a custom pyhton script as the cli frontend though. This could speed up development as long as no complex processing is needed and the templates can be filled based on "simple" values.
Which of the above is the best for the task depends on template file readability and on complexity of the task. It could be nice if a clean split could be made, and we could stop using the C preprocessor based processing completely.
"Not sure if all these format support #include"
The build system works around that by implementing a compiler specific cmake function to add the pre-processing step for compilers not supporting pre-processing out of the box.

Subject: Re: [TF-M] Proposal to separate SCT/LD into each platform folder
Hi,
During the level3 prototyping, we found using a unified sct/ld/file would be hard because we are trying to cover platform-specific setting in ONE place.
The biggest concern of preventing spreading the LD is: if there are COMMON changes then every platform source needs to be updated.
I believe the COMMON change is the arrangement of ARoT and PRoT, those platform-specific things such as CODE_SRAM and MPU alignment issue should not be covered inside the common sct/ld/icf.
Not sure if all these format support #include but as we are using a template so it should be possible to put COMMON settings inside a COMMON template and let platform to contain these common part and then add the specific settings.
I have a rough idea (see above) and need more investigation, request for ideas/concerns about this part.
Thanks.

Subject: [TF-M] Proposal to separate SCT/LD into each platform folder
Hi all,
There are many differences in linker scripts between each platform. Using a common_s.sct/ld makes it too complicated.
And at the same time, in order to achieve isolation level 3, the position of the sessions in scatter and linker script file needs to be adjusted.
The common linker scripts would be more complicated with isolation L3.
So I would like to propose to have dedicated linker scripts for platforms with enough differential arrangements.
What's your opinion on this?
Best regards,
Shawn

For the record, I have attached the full log of the PSA Arch Crypto test run on AN521.
The SHA of respective repositories are the test run given below:
TF-M - 8f895ab8
PSA Arch tests - ee3c463d
tf-m-tests - 7789423
mbedtls - tag: mbedtls-2.23.0
There is an additional failure for test "psa_close_key with RSA 2048 keypair" compared to the summary report below. This is due to incorrect build flag propagation for changing the ITS_MAX_ASSET_SIZE. This will be corrected in the following days.

Subject: Re: [TF-M] Patch to upgrade crypto service to use latest mbedTLS tag (v2.23.0)
Just an update to this,
I have merged the patch which upgrades to the latest mbedTLS tag. The PSA Arch initial attestation test suite fails to build after this merge due to width change of `ecc_curve_t` type. The issue is reported here in PSA Arch test github project : https://github.com/ARM-software/psa-arch-tests/pull/232
The patch for changing the ITS_MAX_ASSET_SIZE is still outstanding and I hope to merge it after a week.
Best Regards

Subject: [TF-M] Patch to upgrade crypto service to use latest mbedTLS tag (v2.23.0)
Hi Everyone
The following patch updates the crypto service in TF-M to use the latest mbedTLS tag v2.23.0. All reviews for the same will be much appreciated.
https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/5252/1
With this update, additional PSA APIs psa_hash_compute() and psa_hash_compare() are now supported.
There is also another patch for platforms to update the ITS_MAX_ASSET_SIZE when testing with PSA Crypto API compliance test as one of the tests require a larger size: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/5253/1 . Could the platform owners review the same and let me know whether the size changes are OK ?
With the above patches, the API compliance remains the same as v1.0 Beta 3 and the PSA Crypto compliance test suite gives the below results (as tested on AN521) :
************ Crypto Suite Report **********
TOTAL TESTS : 61
TOTAL PASSED : 42
TOTAL SIM ERROR : 0
TOTAL FAILED : 17
TOTAL SKIPPED : 2

Hi Anton,
I'd like to briefly introduce the enhancement of the TF-M initialization flow, about 20 minutes.

Dear All,
Following the tech forum presentation (back in 6th August) I uploaded the draft design document for the Secure Enclave topic:
https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/5653
I also updated the first implementation of the proposed solution for the Musca-B1 board with minimal features, marked as WIP:
https://review.trustedfirmware.org/q/topic:%22Secure+Enclave%22+(status:ope…
Limitations, missing features, notes:
* No support for isolation level2 on SSE-200
* Protected Storage is an Application RoT partition, but PS also moved to Secure Enclave
* Some regression tests running on secure side of SSE-200 fail as all messages are forwarded with the same client ID to Secure Enclave
* All IPC message forwarding is a blocking call
* Only one message is put into the mailbox at a time
* Musca-B1 related documentation is not complete yet
* Generated files are not committed, manifest parser should be run before build.
* The BL0 component mentioned in the tech forum presentation is not uploaded, as it is based on the new cmake system, and not so interesting right now
* Cmake changes are rudimentary, will be rebased to new cmake system.
Any feedback very welcomed!

Hi Andrej,
Thanks, if the different approach for project compilation has its own ld file then we can remove these 4 lines - going to create a patch for this.

Subject: RE: The GNUARM linker script change about psa_client objects and the integration method [NXP]
Hi Ken,
Guess, these lines where upstream from NXP SDK, which is using a different approach for project compilation.
Most probably they may be removed for the original TFM.

Andrej

Subject: [TF-M] The GNUARM linker script change about psa_client objects and the integration method [NXP]
Hi,
When I was trying to re-arrange the linker script I found below changes:
*psa_client.*(.text*) /* NXP */
*psa_client.*(.rodata*)
*psa_service.*(.text*) /* NXP */
*psa_service.*(.rodata*)
*psa_lifecycle.*(.text*) /* NXP */
*psa_lifecycle.*(.rodata*)
*tfm_log_raw.*(.text*) /* NXP */
I think at least the psa_client.o and psa_service.o are included into the libtfmsprt.a so these items looks duplicated.
What is the purpose of this change? Would it fix build problem or runtime problem?
Thanks.
