Compilation of TF-A (Trusted Firmware-A): 1. Pre-requisite 2. Initialise cross-compilation via SDK 3. Prepare tf-a source code 4. Management of tf-a source code 5. Compile tf-a source code 6. Update software on board 1. Pre-requisite: ----------------- OpenSTLinux SDK must be installed. For tf-a build you need to install: - git: Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install git-core gitk Fedora: sudo yum install git If you have never configured you git configuration: $> git config --global user.name "your_name" $> git config --global user.email "your_email@example.com" 2. Initialise cross-compilation via SDK: --------------------------------------- Source SDK environment: $> source /environment-setup-cortexa7t2hf-neon-vfpv4-openstlinux_weston-linux-gnueabi To verify if your cross-compilation environment have put in place: $> set | grep CROSS CROSS_COMPILE=arm-openstlinux_weston-linux-gnueabi- Warning: the environment are valid only on the shell session where you have sourced the sdk environment. 3. Prepare tf-a source: ------------------------ If you have the tarball and the list of patch then you must extract the tarball and apply the patch. $> tar xfz .tar.gz or $> tar xfj .tar.bz2 or $> tar xfJ .tar.xz A new directory containing tf-a standard source code will be created, go into it: $> cd NB: if there is no git management on source code and you would like to have a git management on the code see section 4 [Management of tf-a source code] if there is some patch, please apply it on source code $> for p in `ls -1 /*.patch`; do patch -p1 < $p; done 4. Management of tf-a source code: ----------------------------------- If you like to have a better management of change made on tf-a source, you can use git: $> cd $> test -d .git || git init . && git add . && git commit -m "tf-a source code" && git gc $> git checkout -b WORKING $> for p in `ls -1 /*.patch`; do git am $p; done NB: you can use directly the source from the community: URL: git://github.com/ARM-software/arm-trusted-firmware.git Branch: ##GIT_BRANCH## Revision: ##GIT_SRCREV## $> git clone git://github.com/ARM-software/arm-trusted-firmware.git -b ##GIT_BRANCH## $> cd $> git checkout -b WORKING ##GIT_SRCREV## $> for p in `ls -1 /*.patch`; do git am $p; done 5. Build tf-a source code: -------------------------------- To compile tf-a source code $> cd $> make -f $PWD/../Makefile.sdk all or for a specific config : $> make -f $PWD/../Makefile.sdk TFA_DEVICETREE=stm32mp157c-ev1 TF_A_CONFIG=trusted ELF_DEBUG_ENABLE='1' all NB: TFA_DEVICETREE flag must be set to switch to correct board configuration. 6. Update software on board: ---------------------------- 6.1. partitioning of binaries: ----------------------------- TF-A build provide a binary named "tf-a-*.stm32" which MUST be copied on a dedicated partition named "fsbl1" 6.2. Update via SDCARD: ----------------------- Copy the binary (tf-a-*.stm32) on the dedicated partition, on SDCARD/USB disk the partition "fsbl1" are the partition 1: - SDCARD: /dev/mmcblkXp1 (where X is the instance number) - SDCARD via USB reader: /dev/sdX1 (where X is the instance number) $> dd if= of=/dev/ bs=1M conv=fdatasync FAQ: to found the partition associated to a specific label, just plug the SDCARD/USB disk on your PC and call the following command: $> ls -l /dev/disk/by-partlabel/ total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jan 17 17:38 bootfs -> ../../mmcblk0p4 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jan 17 17:38 fsbl1 -> ../../mmcblk0p1 ➔ FSBL (TF-A) lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jan 17 17:38 fsbl2 -> ../../mmcblk0p2 ➔ FSBL backup (TF-A backup – same content as FSBL) lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jan 17 17:38 rootfs -> ../../mmcblk0p5 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jan 17 17:38 ssbl -> ../../mmcblk0p3 ➔ SSBL (U-Boot) lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jan 17 17:38 userfs -> ../../mmcblk0p6 6.3. Update via USB mass storage on U-boot: ------------------------------------------- * Plug the SDCARD on Board. * Start the board and stop on U-boot shell: Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0 STM32MP> * plug an USB cable between the PC and the board via USB OTG port. * On U-Boot shell, call the usb mass storage functionnality: STM32MP> ums 0 mmc 0 ums ex.: For SDCARD: ums 0 mmc 0 For USB disk: ums 0 usb 0 * Follow section 6.2 to put tf-a-*.stm32 on SDCARD/USB disk
