Hi Anton,

Looking into latest an521 build logs here: https://ci.trustedfirmware.org/job/tf-m-build-config/1506009/artifact/ci_build/spe/bin/tfm_s.map/*view*/

I can see that .psa_interface_thread_fn_call is placed as separate section before .tfm_secure_data_start section.

So it does not go into .text/.code section.

Not sure that this is the behavior we want.

Hi Bohdan,

Apologize for the delayed reply. I think there is no danger that functions marked .psa_interface_thread_fn_call section will appear anywhere outside of Code because linker places sections based on attributes so all code in this section will be combined with default .text and other RO executable elements and placed in the Code segment.

I believe those functions were explicitly gathered in a single section for grouping purposes, but the author can have a better answer.

Hope that helps. Please let me know if you have different thoughts.

Anton

Hi all,

Why does TFM assigns function to psa_interface_thread_fn_call section and then never places them anywhere specific?

This way functions assigned to this section are placed outside of the code region which may result in unpredictable behavior.
