Realm Management Extension (RME)
====================================
FEAT_RME (or RME for short) is an Armv9-A extension and is one component of the
`Arm Confidential Compute Architecture (Arm CCA)`_. TF-A supports RME starting
from version 2.6. This document provides instructions on how to build and run
TF-A with RME.
Building and running TF-A with RME
------------------------------------
This section describes how you can build and run TF-A with RME enabled.
We assume you have all the :ref:`Prerequisites` to build TF-A.
To enable RME, you need to set the ENABLE_RME build flag when building
TF-A. Currently, this feature is only supported for the FVP platform.
The following instructions show you how to build and run TF-A with RME
for two scenarios: TF-A with TF-A Tests, and four-world execution with
Hafnium and TF-A Tests. The instructions assume you have already obtained
TF-A. You can use the following command to clone TF-A.
.. code:: shell
git clone https://git.trustedfirmware.org/TF-A/trusted-firmware-a.git
To run the tests, you need an FVP model. You can download a model that supports
RME from the `Arm Architecture Models website`_. Please select the
*Base RevC AEM FVP* model. After extracting the downloaded file, you should be able to
find the *FVP_Base_RevC-2xAEMvA* binary. The instructions below have been tested
with model version 11.15 revision 18.
.. note::
ENABLE_RME build option is currently experimental.
Building TF-A with TF-A Tests
********************************************
Use the following instructions to build TF-A with `TF-A Tests`_ as the
non-secure payload (BL33).
**1. Obtain and build TF-A Tests**
.. code:: shell
git clone https://git.trustedfirmware.org/TF-A/tf-a-tests.git
cd tf-a-tests
make CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-elf- PLAT=fvp DEBUG=1
This produces a TF-A Tests binary (*tftf.bin*) in the *build/fvp/debug* directory.
**2. Build TF-A**
.. code:: shell
cd trusted-firmware-a
make CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-elf- \
PLAT=fvp \
ENABLE_RME=1 \
FVP_HW_CONFIG_DTS=fdts/fvp-base-gicv3-psci-1t.dts \
DEBUG=1 \
BL33=<path/to/tftf.bin> \
all fip
This produces *bl1.bin* and *fip.bin* binaries in the *build/fvp/debug* directory.
The above command also builds a Test Realm Payload (TRP), which is a small test
payload that implements Realm Monitor Management (RMM) functionalities and runs
in the realm world (R-EL2). The TRP binary is packaged in *fip.bin*.
Four-world execution with Hafnium and TF-A Tests
****************************************************
Four-world execution involves software components at each security state: root,
secure, realm and non-secure. This section describes how to build TF-A
with four-world support. We use TF-A as the root firmware, `Hafnium`_ as the
secure component, TRP as the realm-world firmware and TF-A Tests as the
non-secure payload.
Before building TF-A, you first need to build the other software components.
You can find instructions on how to get and build TF-A Tests above.
**1. Obtain and build Hafnium**
.. code:: shell
git clone --recurse-submodules https://git.trustedfirmware.org/hafnium/hafnium.git
cd hafnium
make PROJECT=reference
The Hafnium binary should be located at
*out/reference/secure_aem_v8a_fvp_clang/hafnium.bin*
**2. Build TF-A**
Build TF-A with RME as well as SPM enabled.
.. code:: shell
make CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-elf- \
PLAT=fvp \
ENABLE_RME=1 \
FVP_HW_CONFIG_DTS=fdts/fvp-base-gicv3-psci-1t.dts \
SPD=spmd \
SPMD_SPM_AT_SEL2=1 \
BRANCH_PROTECTION=1 \
CTX_INCLUDE_PAUTH_REGS=1 \
DEBUG=1 \
SP_LAYOUT_FILE=<path/to/tf-a-tests>/build/fvp/debug/sp_layout.json> \
BL32=<path/to/hafnium.bin> \
BL33=<path/to/tftf.bin> \
all fip
Running the tests
*********************
Use the following command to run the tests on FVP. TF-A Tests should boot
and run the default tests including RME tests.
