| TF-A Build Instructions for Marvell Platforms |
| ============================================= |
| |
| This section describes how to compile the Trusted Firmware-A (TF-A) project for Marvell's platforms. |
| |
| Build Instructions |
| ------------------ |
| (1) Set the cross compiler |
| |
| .. code:: shell |
| |
| > export CROSS_COMPILE=/path/to/toolchain/aarch64-linux-gnu- |
| |
| (2) Set path for FIP images: |
| |
| Set U-Boot image path (relatively to TF-A root or absolute path) |
| |
| .. code:: shell |
| |
| > export BL33=path/to/u-boot.bin |
| |
| For example: if U-Boot project (and its images) is located at ``~/project/u-boot``, |
| BL33 should be ``~/project/u-boot/u-boot.bin`` |
| |
| .. note:: |
| |
| *u-boot.bin* should be used and not *u-boot-spl.bin* |
| |
| Set MSS/SCP image path (mandatory only for A7K/8K/CN913x when MSS_SUPPORT=1) |
| |
| .. code:: shell |
| |
| > export SCP_BL2=path/to/mrvl_scp_bl2*.img |
| |
| (3) Armada-37x0 build requires WTP tools installation. |
| |
| See below in the section "Tools and external components installation". |
| Install ARM 32-bit cross compiler, which is required for building WTMI image for CM3 |
| |
| .. code:: shell |
| |
| > sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi |
| |
| (4) Clean previous build residuals (if any) |
| |
| .. code:: shell |
| |
| > make distclean |
| |
| (5) Build TF-A |
| |
| There are several build options: |
| |
| - PLAT |
| |
| Supported Marvell platforms are: |
| |
| - a3700 - A3720 DB, EspressoBin and Turris MOX |
| - a70x0 |
| - a70x0_amc - AMC board |
| - a70x0_mochabin - Globalscale MOCHAbin |
| - a80x0 |
| - a80x0_mcbin - MacchiatoBin |
| - a80x0_puzzle - IEI Puzzle-M801 |
| - t9130 - CN913x |
| - t9130_cex7_eval - CN913x CEx7 Evaluation Board |
| |
| - DEBUG |
| |
| Default is without debug information (=0). in order to enable it use ``DEBUG=1``. |
| Can be enabled also when building UART recovery images, there is no issue with it. |
| |
| Production TF-A images should be built without this debug option! |
| |
| - LOG_LEVEL |
| |
| Defines the level of logging which will be purged to the default output port. |
| |
| - 0 - LOG_LEVEL_NONE |
| - 10 - LOG_LEVEL_ERROR |
| - 20 - LOG_LEVEL_NOTICE (default for DEBUG=0) |
| - 30 - LOG_LEVEL_WARNING |
| - 40 - LOG_LEVEL_INFO (default for DEBUG=1) |
| - 50 - LOG_LEVEL_VERBOSE |
| |
| - USE_COHERENT_MEM |
| |
| This flag determines whether to include the coherent memory region in the |
| BL memory map or not. Enabled by default. |
| |
| - LLC_ENABLE |
| |
| Flag defining the LLC (L3) cache state. The cache is enabled by default (``LLC_ENABLE=1``). |
| |
| - LLC_SRAM |
| |
| Flag enabling the LLC (L3) cache SRAM support. The LLC SRAM is activated and used |
| by Trusted OS (OP-TEE OS, BL32). The TF-A only prepares CCU address translation windows |
| for SRAM address range at BL31 execution stage with window target set to DRAM-0. |
| When Trusted OS activates LLC SRAM, the CCU window target is changed to SRAM. |
| There is no reason to enable this feature if OP-TEE OS built with CFG_WITH_PAGER=n. |
| Only set LLC_SRAM=1 if OP-TEE OS is built with CFG_WITH_PAGER=y. |
| |
| - MARVELL_SECURE_BOOT |
| |
| Build trusted(=1)/non trusted(=0) image, default is non trusted. |
| This parameter is used only for ``mrvl_flash`` and ``mrvl_uart`` targets. |
| |
| - MV_DDR_PATH |
| |
| This parameter is required for ``mrvl_flash`` and ``mrvl_uart`` targets. |
| For A7K/8K/CN913x it is used for BLE build and for Armada37x0 it used |
| for ddr_tool build. |
| |
| Specify path to the full checkout of Marvell mv-ddr-marvell git |
| repository. Checkout must contain also .git subdirectory because |
| mv-ddr build process calls git commands. |
| |
| Do not remove any parts of git checkout becuase build process and other |
| applications need them for correct building and version determination. |
| |
| |
| CN913x specific build options: |
| |
| - CP_NUM |
| |
| Total amount of CPs (South Bridge) connected to AP. When the parameter is omitted, |
| the build uses the default number of CPs, which is a number of embedded CPs inside the |
| package: 1 or 2 depending on the SoC used. The parameter is valid for OcteonTX2 CN913x SoC |
| family (PLAT=t9130), which can have external CPs connected to the MCI ports. Valid |
| values with CP_NUM are in a range of 1 to 3. |
| |
| |
| A7K/8K/CN913x specific build options: |
| |
| - BLE_PATH |
| |
| Points to BLE (Binary ROM extension) sources folder. |
| The parameter is optional, its default value is ``plat/marvell/armada/a8k/common/ble`` |
| which uses TF-A in-tree BLE implementation. |
| |
| - MSS_SUPPORT |
| |
| When ``MSS_SUPPORT=1``, then TF-A includes support for Management SubSystem (MSS). |
| When enabled it is required to specify path to the MSS firmware image via ``SCP_BL2`` |
| option. |
| |
| This option is by default enabled. |
| |
| - SCP_BL2 |
| |
| Specify path to the MSS fimware image binary which will run on Cortex-M3 coprocessor. |
| It is available in Marvell binaries-marvell git repository. Required when ``MSS_SUPPORT=1``. |
| |
| Globalscale MOCHAbin specific build options: |
| |
| - DDR_TOPOLOGY |
| |
| The DDR topology map index/name, default is 0. |
| |
| Supported Options: |
| - 0 - DDR4 1CS 2GB |
| - 1 - DDR4 1CS 4GB |
| - 2 - DDR4 2CS 8GB |
| |
| Armada37x0 specific build options: |
| |
| - HANDLE_EA_EL3_FIRST |
| |
| When ``HANDLE_EA_EL3_FIRST=1``, External Aborts and SError Interrupts will be always trapped |
| in TF-A. TF-A in this case enables dirty hack / workaround for a bug found in U-Boot and |
| Linux kernel PCIe controller driver pci-aardvark.c, traps and then masks SError interrupt |
| caused by AXI SLVERR on external access (syndrome 0xbf000002). |
| |
| Otherwise when ``HANDLE_EA_EL3_FIRST=0``, these exceptions will be trapped in the current |
| exception level (or in EL1 if the current exception level is EL0). So exceptions caused by |
| U-Boot will be trapped in U-Boot, exceptions caused by Linux kernel (or user applications) |
| will be trapped in Linux kernel. |
| |
| Mentioned bug in pci-aardvark.c driver is fixed in U-Boot version v2021.07 and Linux kernel |
| version v5.13 (workarounded since Linux kernel version 5.9) and also backported in Linux |
| kernel stable releases since versions v5.12.13, v5.10.46, v5.4.128, v4.19.198, v4.14.240. |
| |
| If target system has already patched version of U-Boot and Linux kernel then it is strongly |
| recommended to not enable this workaround as it disallows propagating of all External Aborts |
| to running Linux kernel and makes correctable errors as fatal aborts. |
| |
| This option is now disabled by default. In past this option was enabled by default in |
| TF-A versions v2.2, v2.3, v2.4 and v2.5. |
| |
| - CM3_SYSTEM_RESET |
| |
| When ``CM3_SYSTEM_RESET=1``, the Cortex-M3 secure coprocessor will be used for system reset. |
| |
| TF-A will send command 0x0009 with a magic value via the rWTM mailbox interface to the |
| Cortex-M3 secure coprocessor. |
| The firmware running in the coprocessor must either implement this functionality or |
| ignore the 0x0009 command (which is true for the firmware from A3700-utils-marvell |
| repository). If this option is enabled but the firmware does not support this command, |
| an error message will be printed prior trying to reboot via the usual way. |
| |
| This option is needed on Turris MOX as a workaround to a HW bug which causes reset to |
| sometime hang the board. |
| |
| - A3720_DB_PM_WAKEUP_SRC |
| |
| For Armada 3720 Development Board only, when ``A3720_DB_PM_WAKEUP_SRC=1``, |
| TF-A will setup PM wake up src configuration. This option is disabled by default. |
| |
| |
| Armada37x0 specific build options for ``mrvl_flash`` and ``mrvl_uart`` targets: |
| |
| - DDR_TOPOLOGY |
| |
| The DDR topology map index/name, default is 0. |
| |
| Supported Options: |
| - 0 - DDR3 1CS 512MB (DB-88F3720-DDR3-Modular, EspressoBin V3-V5) |
| - 1 - DDR4 1CS 512MB (DB-88F3720-DDR4-Modular) |
| - 2 - DDR3 2CS 1GB (EspressoBin V3-V5) |
| - 3 - DDR4 2CS 4GB (DB-88F3720-DDR4-Modular) |
| - 4 - DDR3 1CS 1GB (DB-88F3720-DDR3-Modular, EspressoBin V3-V5) |
| - 5 - DDR4 1CS 1GB (EspressoBin V7, EspressoBin-Ultra) |
| - 6 - DDR4 2CS 2GB (EspressoBin V7) |
| - 7 - DDR3 2CS 2GB (EspressoBin V3-V5) |
| - CUST - CUSTOMER BOARD (Customer board settings) |
| |
| - CLOCKSPRESET |
| |
| The clock tree configuration preset including CPU and DDR frequency, |
| default is CPU_800_DDR_800. |
| |
| - CPU_600_DDR_600 - CPU at 600 MHz, DDR at 600 MHz |
| - CPU_800_DDR_800 - CPU at 800 MHz, DDR at 800 MHz |
| - CPU_1000_DDR_800 - CPU at 1000 MHz, DDR at 800 MHz |
| - CPU_1200_DDR_750 - CPU at 1200 MHz, DDR at 750 MHz |
| |
| Look at Armada37x0 chip package marking on board to identify correct CPU frequency. |
| The last line on package marking (next line after the 88F37x0 line) should contain: |
| |
| - C080 or I080 - chip with 800 MHz CPU - use ``CLOCKSPRESET=CPU_800_DDR_800`` |
| - C100 or I100 - chip with 1000 MHz CPU - use ``CLOCKSPRESET=CPU_1000_DDR_800`` |
| - C120 - chip with 1200 MHz CPU - use ``CLOCKSPRESET=CPU_1200_DDR_750`` |
| |
| - BOOTDEV |
| |
| The flash boot device, default is ``SPINOR``. |
| |
| Currently, Armada37x0 only supports ``SPINOR``, ``SPINAND``, ``EMMCNORM`` and ``SATA``: |
| |
| - SPINOR - SPI NOR flash boot |
| - SPINAND - SPI NAND flash boot |
| - EMMCNORM - eMMC Download Mode |
| |
| Download boot loader or program code from eMMC flash into CM3 or CA53 |
| Requires full initialization and command sequence |
| |
| - SATA - SATA device boot |
| |
| Image needs to be stored at disk LBA 0 or at disk partition with |
| MBR type 0x4d (ASCII 'M' as in Marvell) or at disk partition with |
| GPT partition type GUID ``6828311A-BA55-42A4-BCDE-A89BB5EDECAE``. |
| |
| - PARTNUM |
| |
| The boot partition number, default is 0. |
| |
| To boot from eMMC, the value should be aligned with the parameter in |
| U-Boot with name of ``CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART``, whose value by default is |
| 1. For details about CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART, please refer to the U-Boot |
| build instructions. |
| |
| - WTMI_IMG |
| |
| The path of the binary can point to an image which |
| does nothing, an image which supports EFUSE or a customized CM3 firmware |
| binary. The default image is ``fuse.bin`` that built from sources in WTP |
| folder, which is the next option. If the default image is OK, then this |
| option should be skipped. |
| |
| Please note that this is not a full WTMI image, just a main loop without |
| hardware initialization code. Final WTMI image is built from this WTMI_IMG |
| binary and sys-init code from the WTP directory which sets DDR and CPU |
| clocks according to DDR_TOPOLOGY and CLOCKSPRESET options. |
| |
| CZ.NIC as part of Turris project released free and open source WTMI |
| application firmware ``wtmi_app.bin`` for all Armada 3720 devices. |
| This firmware includes additional features like access to Hardware |
| Random Number Generator of Armada 3720 SoC which original Marvell's |
| ``fuse.bin`` image does not have. |
| |
| CZ.NIC's Armada 3720 Secure Firmware is available at website: |
| |
| https://gitlab.nic.cz/turris/mox-boot-builder/ |
| |
| - WTP |
| |
| Specify path to the full checkout of Marvell A3700-utils-marvell git |
| repository. Checkout must contain also .git subdirectory because WTP |
| build process calls git commands. |
| |
| WTP build process uses also Marvell mv-ddr-marvell git repository |
| specified in MV_DDR_PATH option. |
| |
| Do not remove any parts of git checkout becuase build process and other |
| applications need them for correct building and version determination. |
| |
| - CRYPTOPP_PATH |
| |
| Use this parameter to point to Crypto++ source code |
| directory. If this option is specified then Crypto++ source code in |
| CRYPTOPP_PATH directory will be automatically compiled. Crypto++ library |
| is required for building WTP image tool. Either CRYPTOPP_PATH or |
| CRYPTOPP_LIBDIR with CRYPTOPP_INCDIR needs to be specified for Armada37x0. |
| |
| - CRYPTOPP_LIBDIR |
| |
| Use this parameter to point to the directory with |
| compiled Crypto++ library. By default it points to the CRYPTOPP_PATH. |
| |
| On Debian systems it is possible to install system-wide Crypto++ library |
| via command ``apt install libcrypto++-dev`` and specify CRYPTOPP_LIBDIR |
| to ``/usr/lib/``. |
| |
| - CRYPTOPP_INCDIR |
| |
| Use this parameter to point to the directory with |
| header files of Crypto++ library. By default it points to the CRYPTOPP_PATH. |
| |
| On Debian systems it is possible to install system-wide Crypto++ library |
| via command ``apt install libcrypto++-dev`` and specify CRYPTOPP_INCDIR |
| to ``/usr/include/crypto++/``. |
| |
| |
| For example, in order to build the image in debug mode with log level up to 'notice' level run |
| |
| .. code:: shell |
| |
| > make DEBUG=1 USE_COHERENT_MEM=0 LOG_LEVEL=20 PLAT=<MARVELL_PLATFORM> mrvl_flash |
| |
| And if we want to build a Armada37x0 image in debug mode with log level up to 'notice' level, |
| the image has the preset CPU at 1000 MHz, preset DDR3 at 800 MHz, the DDR topology of DDR4 2CS, |
| the image boot from SPI NOR flash partition 0, and the image is non trusted in WTP, the command |
| line is as following |
| |
| .. code:: shell |
| |
| > make DEBUG=1 USE_COHERENT_MEM=0 LOG_LEVEL=20 CLOCKSPRESET=CPU_1000_DDR_800 \ |
| MARVELL_SECURE_BOOT=0 DDR_TOPOLOGY=3 BOOTDEV=SPINOR PARTNUM=0 PLAT=a3700 \ |
| MV_DDR_PATH=/path/to/mv-ddr-marvell/ WTP=/path/to/A3700-utils-marvell/ \ |
| CRYPTOPP_PATH=/path/to/cryptopp/ BL33=/path/to/u-boot.bin \ |
| all fip mrvl_bootimage mrvl_flash mrvl_uart |
| |
| To build just TF-A without WTMI image (useful for A3720 Turris MOX board), run following command: |
| |
| .. code:: shell |
| |
| > make USE_COHERENT_MEM=0 PLAT=a3700 CM3_SYSTEM_RESET=1 BL33=/path/to/u-boot.bin \ |
| CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- mrvl_bootimage |
| |
| Here is full example how to build production release of Marvell firmware image (concatenated |
| binary of Marvell's A3720 sys-init, CZ.NIC's Armada 3720 Secure Firmware, TF-A and U-Boot) for |
| EspressoBin board (PLAT=a3700) with 1GHz CPU (CLOCKSPRESET=CPU_1000_DDR_800) and |
| 1GB DDR4 RAM (DDR_TOPOLOGY=5): |
| |
| .. code:: shell |

| MV_DDR_PATH=$PWD/mv-ddr-marvell/ WTP=$PWD/A3700-utils-marvell/ \ |
| CRYPTOPP_PATH=$PWD/cryptopp/ BL33=$PWD/u-boot/u-boot.bin \ |
| WTMI_IMG=$PWD/mox-boot-builder/wtmi_app.bin FIP_ALIGN=0x100 mrvl_flash |
| |
| Produced Marvell firmware flash image: ``trusted-firmware-a/build/a3700/release/flash-image.bin`` |
| |
| Special Build Flags |
| -------------------- |
| |
| - PLAT_RECOVERY_IMAGE_ENABLE |
| When set this option to enable secondary recovery function when build atf. |
| In order to build UART recovery image this operation should be disabled for |
| A7K/8K/CN913x because of hardware limitation (boot from secondary image |
| can interrupt UART recovery process). This MACRO definition is set in |
| ``plat/marvell/armada/a8k/common/include/platform_def.h`` file. |
| |
| - DDR32 |
| In order to work in 32bit DDR, instead of the default 64bit ECC DDR, |
| this flag should be set to 1. |
| |
| For more information about build options, please refer to the |
| :ref:`Build Options` document. |
| |
| |
| Build output |
| ------------ |
| Marvell's TF-A compilation generates 8 files: |
| |
| - ble.bin - BLe image (not available for Armada37x0) |
| - bl1.bin - BL1 image |
| - bl2.bin - BL2 image |
| - bl31.bin - BL31 image |
| - fip.bin - FIP image (contains BL2, BL31 & BL33 (U-Boot) images) |
| - boot-image.bin - TF-A image (contains BL1 and FIP images) |
| - flash-image.bin - Flashable Marvell firmware image. For Armada37x0 it |
| contains TIM, WTMI and boot-image.bin images. For other platforms it contains |
| BLe and boot-image.bin images. Should be placed on the boot flash/device. |
| - uart-images.tgz.bin - GZIPed TAR archive which contains Armada37x0 images |
| for booting via UART. Could be loaded via Marvell's WtpDownload tool from |
| A3700-utils-marvell repository. |
| |
| Additional make target ``mrvl_bootimage`` produce ``boot-image.bin`` file. Target |
| ``mrvl_flash`` produce final ``flash-image.bin`` file and target ``mrvl_uart`` |
| produce ``uart-images.tgz.bin`` file. |
| |
| |
