Patches to share common code between TF-M ITS and SST services

by Jamie Fox

Hi all, The ITS and SST partitions in TF-M share a common implementation for the backend FS and flash layers, but currently this code is duplicated between the two partitions, increasing overall code size. To fix this, it was previously proposed to keep the common code in only the ITS partition, with SST making service requests to ITS to complete FS and flash operations. The patches to implement this are now available for review here: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/trusted-firmware-m/+/2425 https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/trusted-firmware-m/+/2426 The first patch refactors the FS and flash code in ITS to support multiple contexts, with multiple flash devices. The second refactors SST to make requests to ITS instead of calling the FS code directly, and modifies ITS to handle requests that originate from SST with SST's FS context and flash device. This is a fairly significant change to the architecture of the two services, so feedback would be particularly appreciated. Kind regards, Jamie

Re: [TF-M] Weak symbols

by Grosen, Mark

Before deciding and documenting this, could we review and decide on the overall project's applicable standards? I am guessing that "more strict requirements" might hint at things like MISRAC. I would rather see a general framework for how coding standards are either inherited or defined than one-off choices. There are other questionable coding practices in the current code base that would have trouble with MISRAC. That said, if we will adopt MISRAC, we can also adopt deviations and waivers that allow for (limited) uses of general violations. A well-documented, reviewed and approved deviation is normal practice in most projects trying to adhere to formal quality standards.

extending common linker command file template

by DeMars, Alan

We've had to add two memory regions and section placements to the "tfm_common_s.ld.template". Rather than polluting this "common" template, is there a way to extend the functionality so that platform-specific content can be included in the generated linker command file? Alan

Re: [TF-M] SP thread priority when servicing secure interrupts

by DeMars, Alan

After further analysis, I found this to be true: If the secure interrupt has a priority lower than the secure pendsv interrupt, then the associated SP code will run in thread mode at the exception priority level of the secure interrupt. If the priority of the secure interrupt is equal to or greater than the secure pendsv interrupt then associated the SP code will run in thread mode with NO exception priority level.

My secure interrupt has priority 0xe0, whereas the pendSV interrupt has priority 0x60. I'll attempt to provide a procedure for reproducing my results. In the meantime, is there a doubt-free way to determine the execution priority while the processor is in thread mode? Alan -----Original Message----- From: TF-M [mailto:tf-m-bounces@lists.trustedfirmware.org] On Behalf Of Mate Toth-Pal via TF-M Sent: Tuesday, October 29, 2019 5:50 AM To: tf-m(a)lists.trustedfirmware.org Cc: nd Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [TF-M] SP thread priority when servicing secure interrupts Hi Alan, The expected behaviour depends on the Model used in the TF-M. Library model: The generated interrupt handler runs in Handler mode, and after doing an SVC, it starts executing the handler defined in the SP in thread mode. At that point the interrupt handler hadn't returned, so the interrupt is still active in the NVIC. This means that the execution priority of the CPU is equal to the interrupt's priority, even if the processor is executing in thread mode. At the end of the execution of the SP interrupt handler, an SVC is executed, which then return to the context of the generated interrupt handler. And only at this point does the interrupt handler return, and can a pending interrupt with lower priority be active. IPC model: The generated interrupt handler runs at the interrupt’s assigned priority, sets a signal for the partition that should handle the interrupt, and then returns. So the interrupt is cleared in the NVIC. After this, the secure scheduler can schedule the handling partition (the scheduling happens in a PendSV handler), and the signal handler runs in thread mode. In this case the priority of the thread mode is 256 (no priority boosting, and no active exceptions). So the execution can be interrupted. The generated stub is not run again, until the interrupt gets triggered again. If you still find the behaviour of the system unexpected, could you please share some more information about the environment and sequence of steps for reproducing the behaviour? Best would be if you could reproduce the behaviour with one of the platforms supported by the upstream TF-M, and share your patch, so Others could have a look at it in the debugger as well.

While the SP is servicing the secure interrupt's signal (ie: in thread mode), If another interrupt is triggered of the same priority or lower than the pendsv, that new interrupt is not immediately vectored to. Instead, it is vectored to AFTER the secure interrupt's stub function (generated by the template) returns. Is this true and expected behavior? Unless BASEPRI is set to some non-zero value, I thought the processor was always running with no exception priority while in thread mode.
