Re: [TF-M] Firmware update API - MCUboot update

by Sherry Zhang

Hi Suresh, The firmware update service APIs are for updating the firmware. The functionalities of these APIs includes loading the image into its target device(flash), verifying the image and installing it and so on. The user can call the these APIs to achieve update images. For example, in the integration of TF-M and the FreeRTOS OTA<https://github.com/Linaro/amazon-freertos/blob/tfm-fwu/libraries/abstractio…>, the OTA agent calls the firmware update service APIs to achieve an image update remotely. I guess that the "MCUboot update services" you mentioned refers to the functionality of MCUboot which acts as a bootloader. As a bootloader, it can verify the image which already exists on the device and chose the right image to start up. But it cannot, for example, load the image into device or control the image update process. The firmware update partition calls some user APIs provided by MCUboot to cooperate with it. You can refer to https://git.trustedfirmware.org/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m.git/tree/docs/techn….

Does the use of this API make the MCUboot update services redundant? thanks Suresh Marisetty Infineon Semiconductor Corporation Lead Member of Technical Staff CYSC CSS ICW SW SSE Mobile: +5103863997 Suresh.Marisetty(a)infineon.com<mailto:Suresh.Marisetty@infineon.com>

Re: [TF-M] A question on tfm its filesystem

by David Hu

Hi Poppy, SPRT requires the shared library shall not own static R/W data. ITS filesystem may not satisfy this requirement. Usually, a SP, for example Protected Storage, can rely on ITS service to access data in non-volatile memory.

Wiki page sorting out

by Ken Liu

Hi, There are some out of sync contents in the wiki page (mainly the design chapter), which needs to be cleaned a bit. https://developer.trustedfirmware.org/w/tf_m/ As the first step, the following article would be removed (Would move to a recyclable place at first): Cooperative Scheduling Rules - content out of date. Non-Secure Interrupt Handling - covered in the design document. Secure Partition Interrupt Handling - covered in the interrupt handling document. Service IPC compatibility - Attestation - low priority, no need to be a standalone item. Service IPC compatibility - SST - same as above. Trusted Firmware-m Isolation Level 2 - covered by document 'FF-M isolation'. Uniform Secure Service Signature - out of date, as most of related files are changed. Any comments please feel free to ping me. Would do this on Thursday (27th May) this week. Thanks. /Ken

CMSIS_5 pack cloning issue in old TF-M version

by Anton Komlev

Hi, Some of you using TF-M v1.0 or earlier may have experienced build failures recently because of the CMSIS_5 repo git-lfs quota. To avoid this issue, it is recommended to either update to the latest TF-M version or to manually download the CMSIS_5 pack without using git-lfs. TF-M only uses a small part of the CMSIS_5 pack for testing purposes. To avoid cloning the entire CMSIS_5 pack, TF-M has been using a forked copy of the required RTX libraries in the tf-m-tests repo since v1.1 so updating to any TF-M version including and after v1.1 is fine. Hope that helps, Anton K.
