| Arm Development Platform Build Options |
| ====================================== |
| |
| Arm Platform Build Options |
| -------------------------- |
| |
| - ``ARM_BL31_IN_DRAM``: Boolean option to select loading of BL31 in TZC secured |
| DRAM. By default, BL31 is in the secure SRAM. Set this flag to 1 to load |
| BL31 in TZC secured DRAM. If TSP is present, then setting this option also |
| sets the TSP location to DRAM and ignores the ``ARM_TSP_RAM_LOCATION`` build |
| flag. |
| |
| - ``ARM_CONFIG_CNTACR``: boolean option to unlock access to the ``CNTBase<N>`` |
| frame registers by setting the ``CNTCTLBase.CNTACR<N>`` register bits. The |
| frame number ``<N>`` is defined by ``PLAT_ARM_NSTIMER_FRAME_ID``, which |
| should match the frame used by the Non-Secure image (normally the Linux |
| kernel). Default is true (access to the frame is allowed). |
| |
| - ``ARM_DISABLE_TRUSTED_WDOG``: boolean option to disable the Trusted Watchdog. |
| By default, Arm platforms use a watchdog to trigger a system reset in case |
| an error is encountered during the boot process (for example, when an image |
| could not be loaded or authenticated). The watchdog is enabled in the early |
| platform setup hook at BL1 and disabled in the BL1 prepare exit hook. The |
| Trusted Watchdog may be disabled at build time for testing or development |
| purposes. |
| |
| - ``ARM_LINUX_KERNEL_AS_BL33``: The Linux kernel expects registers x0-x3 to |
| have specific values at boot. This boolean option allows the Trusted Firmware |
| to have a Linux kernel image as BL33 by preparing the registers to these |
| values before jumping to BL33. This option defaults to 0 (disabled). For |
| AArch64 ``RESET_TO_BL31`` and for AArch32 ``RESET_TO_SP_MIN`` must be 1 when |
| using it. If this option is set to 1, ``ARM_PRELOADED_DTB_BASE`` must be set |
| to the location of a device tree blob (DTB) already loaded in memory. The |
| Linux Image address must be specified using the ``PRELOADED_BL33_BASE`` |
| option. |
| |
| - ``ARM_PLAT_MT``: This flag determines whether the Arm platform layer has to |
| cater for the multi-threading ``MT`` bit when accessing MPIDR. When this flag |
| is set, the functions which deal with MPIDR assume that the ``MT`` bit in |
| MPIDR is set and access the bit-fields in MPIDR accordingly. Default value of |
| this flag is 0. Note that this option is not used on FVP platforms. |
| |
| - ``ARM_RECOM_STATE_ID_ENC``: The PSCI1.0 specification recommends an encoding |
| for the construction of composite state-ID in the power-state parameter. |
| The existing PSCI clients currently do not support this encoding of |
| State-ID yet. Hence this flag is used to configure whether to use the |
| recommended State-ID encoding or not. The default value of this flag is 0, |
| in which case the platform is configured to expect NULL in the State-ID |
| field of power-state parameter. |
| |
| - ``ARM_ROTPK_LOCATION``: used when ``TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT=1``. It specifies the |
| location of the ROTPK hash returned by the function ``plat_get_rotpk_info()`` |
| for Arm platforms. Depending on the selected option, the proper private key |
| must be specified using the ``ROT_KEY`` option when building the Trusted |
| Firmware. This private key will be used by the certificate generation tool |
| to sign the BL2 and Trusted Key certificates. Available options for |
| ``ARM_ROTPK_LOCATION`` are: |
| |
| - ``regs`` : return the ROTPK hash stored in the Trusted root-key storage |
| registers. |
| - ``devel_rsa`` : return a development public key hash embedded in the BL1 |
| and BL2 binaries. This hash has been obtained from the RSA public key |
| ``arm_rotpk_rsa.der``, located in ``plat/arm/board/common/rotpk``. To use |
| this option, ``arm_rotprivk_rsa.pem`` must be specified as ``ROT_KEY`` |
| when creating the certificates. |
| - ``devel_ecdsa`` : return a development public key hash embedded in the BL1 |
| and BL2 binaries. This hash has been obtained from the ECDSA public key |
| ``arm_rotpk_ecdsa.der``, located in ``plat/arm/board/common/rotpk``. To |
| use this option, ``arm_rotprivk_ecdsa.pem`` must be specified as |
| ``ROT_KEY`` when creating the certificates. |
| |
| - ``ARM_ROTPK_HASH``: used when ``ARM_ROTPK_LOCATION=devel_*``. Specifies the |
| location of the ROTPK hash. Not expected to be a build option. This defaults to |
| ``plat/arm/board/common/rotpk/*_sha256.bin`` depending on the specified algorithm. |
| Providing ``ROT_KEY`` enforces generation of the hash from the ``ROT_KEY`` and |
| overwrites the default hash file. |
| |
| - ``ARM_TSP_RAM_LOCATION``: location of the TSP binary. Options: |
| |
| - ``tsram`` : Trusted SRAM (default option when TBB is not enabled) |
| - ``tdram`` : Trusted DRAM (if available) |
| - ``dram`` : Secure region in DRAM (default option when TBB is enabled, |
| configured by the TrustZone controller) |
| |
| - ``ARM_XLAT_TABLES_LIB_V1``: boolean option to compile TF-A with version 1 |
| of the translation tables library instead of version 2. It is set to 0 by |
| default, which selects version 2. |
| |
| - ``ARM_CRYPTOCELL_INTEG`` : bool option to enable TF-A to invoke Arm® |
| TrustZone® CryptoCell functionality for Trusted Board Boot on capable Arm |
| platforms. If this option is specified, then the path to the CryptoCell |
| SBROM library must be specified via ``CCSBROM_LIB_PATH`` flag. |
| |
| - ``ARM_ETHOSN_NPU_DRIVER``: boolean option to enable a SiP service that can |
| configure an Arm Ethos-N NPU. To use this service the target platform's |
| ``HW_CONFIG`` must include the device tree nodes for the NPU. Currently, only |
| the Arm Juno platform has this included in its ``HW_CONFIG`` and the platform |
| only loads the ``HW_CONFIG`` in AArch64 builds. Default is 0. |
| |
| - ``ARM_SPMC_MANIFEST_DTS`` : path to an alternate manifest file used as the |
| SPMC Core manifest. Valid when ``SPD=spmd`` is selected. |
| |
| - ``OPTEE_SP_FW_CONFIG``: DTC build flag to include OP-TEE as SP in tb_fw_config |
| device tree. This flag is defined only when ``ARM_SPMC_MANIFEST_DTS`` manifest |
| file name contains pattern optee_sp. |
| |
| For a better understanding of these options, the Arm development platform memory |
| map is explained in the :ref:`Firmware Design`. |

| |
| Arm CSS Platform-Specific Build Options |
| --------------------------------------- |
| |
| - ``CSS_DETECT_PRE_1_7_0_SCP``: Boolean flag to detect SCP version |
| incompatibility. Version 1.7.0 of the SCP firmware made a non-backwards |
| compatible change to the MTL protocol, used for AP/SCP communication. |
| TF-A no longer supports earlier SCP versions. If this option is set to 1 |
| then TF-A will detect if an earlier version is in use. Default is 1. |
| |
| - ``CSS_LOAD_SCP_IMAGES``: Boolean flag, which when set, adds SCP_BL2 and |
| SCP_BL2U to the FIP and FWU_FIP respectively, and enables them to be loaded |
| during boot. Default is 1. |
| |
| - ``CSS_USE_SCMI_SDS_DRIVER``: Boolean flag which selects SCMI/SDS drivers |
| instead of SCPI/BOM driver for communicating with the SCP during power |
| management operations and for SCP RAM Firmware transfer. If this option |
| is set to 1, then SCMI/SDS drivers will be used. Default is 0. |
| |
| - ``CSS_SGI_CHIP_COUNT``: Configures the number of chips on a SGI/RD platform |
| which supports multi-chip operation. If ``CSS_SGI_CHIP_COUNT`` is set to any |
| valid value greater than 1, the platform code performs required configuration |
| to support multi-chip operation. |
