Hi,

We are pleased to announce the formal release of Trusted Firmware-A version 2.14 bundle of project deliverables.

This includes Trusted Firmware-A, Trusted Firmware-A Tests, Hafnium, TF-RMM, Trusted Services, and TF-A OpenCI scripts/jobs components.

These went live on Nov, 24th 2025.

Please find tag references and change logs at the end of this email.

Many thanks to the trustedfirmware.org community for the active engagement in delivering this release!

Notable features of the release version 2.14 are as follows:

Boot flow

* Transfer list and event log libraries now offered as shared libraries consumed as submodules by TF-A. * Update to mbedTLS 3.6.5 * Various PSA FWU improvements, namely BL2 in a dedicated FIP, GPT-corruption notifications to BL32, and expanded FWU tests.

Errata/Security mitigations (CPU/GIC)

* New CPU support: Arm Lumex C1, Dionysus, Caddo/Veymont, Venom. * Added close to 30 new CPU errata across multiple processor families, based on the latest SDEN updates.

Hafnium/SPM (S-EL2)

* FF-A v1.3 early adoption * FFA_NS_RES_INFO_GET ABI added * Partition lifecycle support: new states, abort handling. Pre-requisite to secure partitions live firmware activation. * Notifications support refactored with per-vCPU notifications removed. * Multi-GIC configuration supporting complex topologies. * Shrinkwrap used at core of Hafnium testing infrastructure.

TF-RMM (R-EL2)

* RMM v1.1 Planes support * PMU, timer, GIC ownership transfer. * Support for FEAT_S1POE/S1PIE, FEAT_S2POE/S2PIE * RMM v1.1 Memory Encryption Contexts (MEC) support * Realm Device Assignment * RMM v1.1. ALP12 base Device Assignment support * RMI VDEV ABIs, PDEV life cycle, root port IDE key programming, SPDM client as EL0 app. * Improved ID registers trapping leveraging SMCCC ARCH_FEATURE_AVAILABILITY, in light of future FEAT_IDTE3 support. * Additional architectural support: FEAT_TCR2, FEAT_D128, single-copy atomics,

TF-A Tests

* RME: DA and PCIe, Planes, MEC * SPM/FF-A * Bumped support o FF-A v1.3 * FFA_ABORT ABI * Deprecated per-vCPU notifications. * FWU: added negative testing (invalid image size, corrupted ROTPK) * GICv5 support added * Arm architecture tests * FEAT_TCR2 (for RME) , FEAT_IDTE3, FEAT_MPAM_PE_BW_CTRL, FEAT_EBEP, FEAT_AIE, FEAT_PFAR * SMCCC_ARCH_SOC_ID * SMCCC_ARCH_FEATURE_AVAILABILITY * Fuzzing: added SMC fuzzer documentation * Basic LFA framework tests * Platforms updates: AMD/Xilinx, Arm FVP, Corstone-1000

Trusted Services

* RD-Aspen platform support added. * EFI ESRT handling in FWU Proxy (supporting Corstone1000 platform). * Block Storage service threat modelling.
