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 <path to SDK>/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 you have the tarball and the list of patch then you must extract the tarball
and apply the patch.
$> tar xfz ##BP##-##PR##.tar.gz
A new directory containing tf-a standard source code will be created, go into it:
$> cd ##BP##
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 <directory to tf-a source code>
$ 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 <path to patch>/*.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 <directory to tf-a source code>
$ git checkout -b WORKING ##GIT_SRCREV##
$ for p in `ls -1 <path to patch>/*.patch`; do git am $p; done
5. Build tf-a source code:
--------------------------------
Since OpenSTLinux has activated FIP by default, so the FIP_artifacts should be specified before launching compilation
- In case of using SOURCES-xxxx.tar.gz of Developer package the FIP_DEPLOYDIR_ROOT should be set as below:
$> export FIP_DEPLOYDIR_ROOT=$PWD/../../FIP_artifacts
To compile tf-a source code
$> 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.
The generated FIP images are available in $FIP_DEPLOYDIR_ROOT/fip
6. Update software on board:
----------------------------
Please use STM32CubeProgrammer then only tick the boot partitions means patitions 0x1 to 0x6 (more informations on the wiki website http://wiki.st.com/stm32mpu)
