Hi, Currently the test framework which executes test suites doesn't return anything. Therefore it is not possible for application layer to know the status of test cases. The patchset https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/trusted-firmware-m/+/3172 is intended to export the test case pass/fail status to application layer and beyond (if any test framework is used by Non-secure side). If there are no objections then can the patchset be merged? Thanks, Dev IMPORTANT NOTICE: The contents of this email and any attachments are confidential and may also be privileged.

Re: [TF-M] Exporting flash_layout.h and region_defs.h

by Devaraj Ranganna

Hi, Can we agree on exporting both `flash_layout.h and region_defs.h` till a decision is made on tooling to be used/developed for device config and export in TF-M? Exporting these files doesn’t mean that NS RTOS is obligated to use these rather just a choice. If NS RTOS decides to write/generate their own then these files will just be in the TF-M export folder.

Re: [TF-M] QCBOR, IEEE-754, RFC 7049 and Arm Run-time ABI issues

Hi Thomas, An extra logging can be enabled for QCBOR test cases: https://git.trustedfirmware.org/trusted-firmware-m.git/tree/test/suites/qcb… Could you repeat the test with enabled logs, just to know exactly which test cases are failing? The QCBOR library is used for attest token creation, but only a small part of the library which is actually used. The IEEE 754 part of QCBOR is unused in TF-M. So it is not affecting TF-M code, we can temporarily disable those test cases. It is not a blocking issue for IAR support.

Persistent keys in the Crypto service

by Jamie Fox

Hi all, I have pushed for review patches to enable persistent keys in the TF-M Crypto service. With these changes, persistent keys will be stored by Mbed Crypto using the ITS APIs exposed by TF-M. The reviews are here: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/trusted-firmware-m/+/3252 (implementation) https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/trusted-firmware-m/+/3253 (tests) Currently, merging of these patches is blocked as they depend on Mbed Crypto 2.0 (or greater), which adds support for the latest ITS 1.0.0 APIs exposed by TF-M. Integrating Mbed Crypto 2.0 with TF-M is a work in progress. If anyone wants to test these patches in the meantime, it is possible to cherry pick the patch in the Mbed Crypto repo that adds support for ITS 1.0.0. With the Mbed Crypto repo checked-out at the "mbedcrypto-1.1.0" tag, do a "git cherry-pick bda5a2111" to cherry pick the relevant patch. Kind regards, Jamie

HMAC authenticated staic attestation token

by Tamas Ban

Hi, TF-M Profile 1 initiative addressing TF-M footprint reduction to make TF-M usable on more constrained MCUs. As part of this activity attestation service is planned to be refactored as follows: * Static token creation: Not use QCBOR and T_COSE libraries to token creation * HMAC based token authentication: Rely only on symmetric crypto algorithms These changes are optional, the current functionality (dynamic token creation + ECDSA based authentication) remains available and default setting in higher profiles (3). A design proposal was created, feel free to review & comment: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/trusted-firmware-m/+/3344 BR, Tamas

QCBOR, IEEE-754, RFC 7049 and Arm Run-time ABI issues

by Thomas Törnblom

The IAR port of TF-M is mostly done and all regression tests runs OK, with the exception of some of the QCBOR tests. I've analyzed the issue to be the NaN tests to not follow the Arm run-time ABI.

Remaining bits should be zero and can be ignored. When a quiet NaN of one precision is converted to a quiet of the other precision, the most significant 20 bits of the mantissa must be preserved. Consequently: * A NaN can be recognized by processing the most significant or only word of the representation.

TF-M NS regression tests - linker issue

by Reinhard Keil

In CMSIS we are using a Test Framework that offers the flexibility to: 1. output to classic printf, but redirecting is on just a single place. 2. Record test output to memory (for devices that have not printf facility) 3. Output the test results in XML for nice formatting using browsers (we use this for filing test reports). We have used this framework on various projects, across 4 different compilers, on many different targets (simulation, FPGA without UART, etc.). The framework is for example here https://github.com/ARM-software/CMSIS-Driver_Validation/tree/master/Source. But we used it also for various other projects. If there is interest, we could do some work to explain it better and make it scalable to TF-M.

Exporting flash_layout.h and region_defs.h

by Reinhard Keil

Hi George The headless mode is functional identical to a command-line mode. I agree that the command line is not self-explaining in the moment, but this can be improved over time. CMSIS-Zone is a tool that is specifically designed for Cortex-M security and MPU configuration. It is fully supported by Arm and part of our CMSIS open source activities. CMSIS-Zone * Supports all Cortex-M23/M33 devices that are on the market public today and extending this support is easy to achieve with an *.rzone file * The *.rzone approach will be part of our IP configuration activities that is under Socrates. * The template engine gives you flexibility for generating many different files, source, header, linker scripts etc. * The tool has both GUI interface and command line mode * All XML files are fully documented and explained * It generates static setup which reduces the run-time overhead and the memory footprint. Both is critical for TF-M * While it requires Eclipse framework, this is not different form other tools (i.e. Phyton requires Phyton framework). So, I somewhat cannot understand your argument. Thanks Reinhard
