How to develop an OP-TEE Trusted Application with STM32CubeIDE

Revision as of 15:51, 3 December 2021 by Registered User

This article is a guideline to OP-TEE trusted application support, which is fully integrated from release 1.7.1.21_MP13-A1 of STM32CubeIDE.

It proposes to create an OP-TEE trusted application project implementing:

  • user space executable hello world which makes a call to OP-TEE trusted application
  • OP-TEE trusted application itself, with universally unique identifier (a.k.a. UUID) support

1. Prerequisites[edit source]

Minimum hardware

  • STM32MP135F-DK-based board
  • Linux console
  • Ethernet (or Ethernet over USB) for connection to Linux® Cortex®-A

Minimum software

Yocto SDK is required to built trusted application example and Linux project is used here only to deploy trusted application on the STM32MP13 target.

2. Create a Trusted Application project[edit source]

In the root project context, named "myMp135fDk" here, right-click and select Create an OP-TEE Trusted Application Project.

Project name is given, note that the trusted application project uses by default the SDK version associated to the STM32MP13 project (OpenSTLinux 3.0.0 in this STM32CubeIDE 1.7 version).

From STM32CubeIDE release 1.7.1.21_MP13-A1 it is possible to enrich an STM32MP13x project with Trusted Application type project.
