Hi Øyvind,

IMOO, such a NVME area is psa-arch-tests dedicated requirement, instead of TF-M implementation or FF-M definitions. I’d suggest to ask for more details in https://github.com/ARM-software/psa-arch-tests/.

FYI a patch from psa-arch-test to enable such a NVME area in TF-M: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/3360

Best regards,

Hu Ziji

Subject: [TF-M] PSA tests: NVMEM section

According to psa-arch-tests[1] the tests need an NVMEM area to write its states to.

“Non-volatile memory support to preserve test status over watchdog timer reset. Each byte of this region must be initialised to FF at power on reset.”

I could not find any code that does this in the TF-M or PSA repos. How do other platforms reserve and manage this 1k area.
