Changes needed on the FVP command line to enable FEAT_LPA2

by Javier Almansa Sobrino

Hi all, We are introducing support for FEAT_LPA2 into TF-RMM (patches are available here<https://review.trustedfirmware.org/q/topic:%22lpa2-support%22+(status:open%…>). Once the patches are merged, FEAT_LPA2 will be a mandatory feature for TF-RMM to work. This means that FVP will need to enable this feature when running. To do so, the following changes are needed on the command line: - -C cluster0.PA_SIZE=48 + -C cluster0.PA_SIZE=52 + -C cluster0.has_large_va=2 + -c cluster0.has_52bit_address_with_4k=2 This needs to be applied to all the clusters on the model. In addition to that, "arch_version" on the model needs to be set to "8.7" or higher. The changes can be applied at any point from now as at the moment TF-RMM is able to work with and without FEAT_LPA2. Once the patches are merged, though, TF-RMM will fail during boot if FEAT_LPA2 is not available. Thank you very much.

TF-A v2.9 Release Schedule

by Joanna Farley

TF-A Community, This is to notify that we are planning to target the Trusted Firmware-A 2.9 release during the middle of May 2023 as part of the regular 6 month cadence. The aim is to consolidate all TF-A work since the 2.8 release. As part of this, a release candidate tag is targeted to be created and release activities commence from 10th May 2023 across all TF-A repositories. Essentially we will not merge any major enhancements from this date until the release is made. Please ensure any patches desired to make the 2.9 release are submitted in good time to be complete by 9th May 2023. Any major enhancement patches still open after that date will not be merged until after the release. This will involve the various repositories making up the broader TF-A project including the TF-A mainline, TF-A Tests, Hafnium, TF-A CI Scripts and TF-A CI Job. In addition a TF-RMM repository release will be made that is compatible with v2.9. We will endeavour minimise the disruption on patch merging and complete release activities ASAP after we start normally completing within 7-10 working days. Regards Joanna Farley

Info on RME patches for Linux kernel

by Soby Mathew

Hi, The series of RFC patches supporting running Realm VMs for Linux kernel, kvmtool and kvm-unit-tests have been posted to kernel mailing list and the details can be found here : https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230127112248.136810-1-suzuki.poulose@arm.com/… . The instructions to build TF-A (including RMM) and run on AEM FVP are available here: https://trustedfirmware-a.readthedocs.io/en/latest/components/realm-managem… and these instructions can be used to boot up the RME enabled kernel and run kvm-unit-tests via kvmtool.
