Compilation of TF-A (Trusted Firmware-A): 1. Pre-requisite 2. Initialize cross-compilation via SDK 3. Prepare TF-A source code 4. Manage TF-A source code with GIT 5. Compile TF-A source code 6. Update software on board 7. Update starter package with TF-A compilation outputs ---------------- 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. Initialize cross-compilation via SDK --------------------------------------- Source SDK environment: $ source /environment-setup-cortexa7t2hf-neon-vfpv4-ostl-linux-gnueabi To verify if your cross-compilation environment have put in place: $ set | grep CROSS CROSS_COMPILE=arm-ostl-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 not already done, extract the sources from Developer Package tarball, for example: $ tar xf en.SOURCES-stm32mp1-*.tar.xz In the TF-A source directory (sources/*/##BP##-##PR##), you have one TF-A source tarball, the patches and one Makefile: - ##BP##-##PR##.tar.xz - 00*.patch - Makefile.sdk If you would like to have a git management for the source code move to to section 4 [Management of TF-A source code with GIT]. Otherwise, to manage TF-A source code without git, you must extract the tarball now and apply the patch: $> tar xf ##BP##-##PR##.tar.xz $> cd ##BP## $> for p in `ls -1 ../*.patch`; do patch -p1 < $p; done You can now move to section 5 [Compile TF-A source code]. ----------------------------------- 4. Manage TF-A source code with GIT ----------------------------------- If you like to have a better management of change made on TF-A source, you have 3 solutions to use git: 4.1 Get STMicroelectronics TF-A source from GitHub -------------------------------------------------- URL: https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/arm-trusted-firmware.git Branch: ##ARCHIVER_ST_BRANCH## Revision: ##ARCHIVER_ST_REVISION## $ git clone https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/arm-trusted-firmware.git $ git checkout -b WORKING ##ARCHIVER_ST_REVISION## 4.2 Create Git from tarball --------------------------- $ tar xf ##BP##-##PR##.tar.xz $ cd ##BP## $ 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 4.3 Get Git from Arm Software community and apply STMicroelectronics patches --------------------------------------------------------------- URL: git://github.com/ARM-software/arm-trusted-firmware.git Branch: ##ARCHIVER_COMMUNITY_BRANCH## Revision: ##ARCHIVER_COMMUNITY_REVISION## $ git clone git://github.com/ARM-software/arm-trusted-firmware.git $ cd arm-trusted-firmware $ git checkout -b WORKING ##ARCHIVER_COMMUNITY_REVISION## $ for p in `ls -1 /*.patch`; do git am $p; done --------------------------- 5. Compile TF-A source code --------------------------- Since OpenSTLinux activates FIP by default, FIP_artifacts directory path must be specified before launching compilation - In case of using SOURCES-xxxx.tar.gz of Developer package the FIP_DEPLOYDIR_ROOT must be set as below: $> export FIP_DEPLOYDIR_ROOT=$PWD/../../FIP_artifacts The build results for this component are available in DEPLOYDIR (Default: $PWD/../deploy). If needed, this deploy directory can be specified by adding "DEPLOYDIR=" compilation option to the build command line below. The generated FIP images are available in /fip To list TF-A source code compilation configurations: $ make -f $PWD/../Makefile.sdk help To compile TF-A source code: $ make -f $PWD/../Makefile.sdk all To compile TF-A source code for a specific config: $ make -f $PWD/../Makefile.sdk TF_A_DEVICETREE=stm32mp157c-ev1 TF_A_CONFIG=trusted ELF_DEBUG_ENABLE='1' all NB: TF_A_DEVICETREE flag must be set to switch to correct board configuration. To compile TF-A source code and overwrite the default FIP artifacts with built artifacts: $> make -f $PWD/../Makefile.sdk DEPLOYDIR=$FIP_DEPLOYDIR_ROOT/arm-trusted-firmware all --------------------------- 6. Update software on board --------------------------- Please use STM32CubeProgrammer to update the boot partitions, find more informations on the wiki website https://wiki.st.com/stm32mpu --------------------------- 7. Update Starter Package with TF-A compilation outputs --------------------------- If not already done, extract the artifacts from Starter Package tarball, for example: # tar xf en.FLASH-stm32mp1-*.tar.xz Move to Starter Package root folder, #> cd Cleanup Starter Package from original TF-A artifacts first #> rm -rf images/stm32mp1/arm-trusted-firmware/* #> rm -rf images/stm32mp1/fip/* Update Starter Package with new FSBL binaries from folder #> DEPLOYDIR=$FIP_DEPLOYDIR_ROOT/arm-trusted-firmware && cp -rvf $DEPLOYDIR/* images/stm32mp1/arm-trusted-firmware/ NB: if has not been overide at compilation step, use default path: /../deploy Update Starter Package with new fip artifacts from /fip folder: #> cp -rvf $FIP_DEPLOYDIR_ROOT/fip/* images/stm32mp1/fip/ Then the new Starter Package is ready to use for "Image flashing" on board (more information on wiki website https://wiki.st.com/stm32mpu).
