Trusted Firmware-A for STM32MP1
===============================
STM32MP1 is a microprocessor designed by STMicroelectronics
based on a dual Arm Cortex-A7.
It is an Armv7-A platform, using dedicated code from TF-A.
The STM32MP1 chip also embeds a Cortex-M4.
More information can be found on `STM32MP1 Series`_ page.
Design
------
The STM32MP1 resets in the ROM code of the Cortex-A7.
The primary boot core (core 0) executes the boot sequence while
secondary boot core (core 1) is kept in a holding pen loop.
The ROM code boot sequence loads the TF-A binary image from boot device
to embedded SRAM.
The TF-A image must be properly formatted with a STM32 header structure
for ROM code is able to load this image.
Tool stm32image can be used to prepend this header to the generated TF-A binary.
At compilation step, BL2, BL32 and DTB file are linked together in a single
binary. The stm32image tool is also generated and the header is added to TF-A
binary. This binary file with header is named tf-a-stm32mp157c-ev1.stm32.
It can then be copied in the first partition of the boot device.

Boot sequence
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ROM code -> BL2 (compiled with BL2_AT_EL3) -> BL32 (SP_min) -> BL33 (U-Boot)
or if Op-TEE is used:
ROM code -> BL2 (compiled with BL2_AT_EL3) -> OP-TEE -> BL33 (U-Boot)
Build Instructions
------------------
To build with SP_min:
.. code:: bash
make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- PLAT=stm32mp1 ARCH=aarch32 ARM_ARCH_MAJOR=7 AARCH32_SP=sp_min
cd <u-boot_directory>
make stm32mp15_basic_defconfig
make DEVICE_TREE=stm32mp157c-ev1 all
./tools/mkimage -T stm32image -a 0xC0100000 -e 0xC0100000 -d u-boot.bin u-boot.stm32
To build TF-A with with Op-TEE support:
.. code:: bash
make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- PLAT=stm32mp1 ARCH=aarch32 ARM_ARCH_MAJOR=7 AARCH32_SP=optee
The following build options are supported:
- ``ENABLE_STACK_PROTECTOR``: To enable the stack protection.
Populate SD-card
----------------
The SD-card has to be formated with GPT.
It should contain at least those partitions:
- fsbl: to copy the tf-a-stm32mp157c-ev1.stm32 binary
- ssbl: to copy the u-boot.stm32 binary
Usually, two copies of fsbl are used (fsbl1 and fsbl2) instead of one partition fsbl.
