Trusted Firmware-A
|
||
|
|
==================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Trusted Firmware-A (TF-A) is a reference implementation of secure world software
|
||
|
|
for `Arm A-Profile architectures`_ (Armv8-A and Armv7-A), including an Exception
|
||
|
|
Level 3 (EL3) `Secure Monitor`_. It provides a suitable starting point for
|
||
|
|
productization of secure world boot and runtime firmware, in either the AArch32
|
||
|
|
or AArch64 execution states.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
TF-A implements Arm interface standards, including:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- `Power State Coordination Interface (PSCI)`_
|
||
|
|
- `Trusted Board Boot Requirements CLIENT (TBBR-CLIENT)`_
|
||
|
|
- `SMC Calling Convention`_
|
||
|
|
- `System Control and Management Interface (SCMI)`_
|
||
|
|
- `Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI)`_
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The code is designed to be portable and reusable across hardware platforms and
|
||
|
|
software models that are based on the Armv8-A and Armv7-A architectures.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In collaboration with interested parties, we will continue to enhance TF-A
|
||
|
|
with reference implementations of Arm standards to benefit developers working
|
||
|
|
with Armv7-A and Armv8-A TrustZone technology.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Users are encouraged to do their own security validation, including penetration
|
||
|
|
testing, on any secure world code derived from TF-A.
