The OpenSTLinux distribution encompasses the following components:

  • The OpenSTLinux BSP that offers services, to the application frameworks in the same context, from:
    • The boot chain based on TF-A and U-Boot
    • The OP-TEE secure OS running on the Cortex-A in secure mode
    • The Linux® kernel running on the Arm® Cortex®-A in non-secure mode
  • The Application frameworks that rely on the services provided by the OpenSTLinux BSP, to provide particular functionalities (code libraries, APIs, tool sets...) to facilitate the development of software applications:
    • The Linux application frameworks (aka Linux middlewares) running on the user space of the Linux OS: e.g. libusb C library for a generic access to USB devices, ALSA user-space bundle for audio functionalities, GStreamer multimedia framework...
    • The OP-TEE application frameworks running on the user space of the secure OS: e.g. TEE Internal core API for the development of Trusted Applications (TA)
    • The U-Boot application frameworks: e.g. configuration scripts

The '''OpenSTLinux distribution''' encompasses the following components:
* The '''OpenSTLinux BSP''' that offers services, to the application frameworks in the same context, from:
** The '''boot chain''' based on '''TF-A''' and '''U-Boot'''
** The '''OP-TEE secure OS''' running on the Cortex-A in secure mode
** The '''Linux<sup>&reg;</sup> kernel''' running on the Arm<sup>&reg;</sup> Cortex<sup>&reg;</sup>-A in non-secure mode
* The '''Application frameworks''' that rely on the services provided by the OpenSTLinux BSP, to provide particular functionalities (code libraries, APIs, tool sets...) to facilitate the development of software applications:
** The '''Linux application frameworks''' (aka Linux middlewares) running on the user space of the Linux OS: e.g. libusb C library for a generic access to USB devices, ALSA user-space bundle for audio functionalities, GStreamer multimedia framework...
** The '''OP-TEE application frameworks''' running on the user space of the secure OS: e.g. TEE Internal core API for the development of Trusted Applications (TA)
** The '''U-Boot application frameworks''': e.g. configuration scripts
