Trusted Firmware-A是Arm提供的安全世界软件的参考实现。<sup>&reg;</sup>. 它最初是为Armv8-A平台设计的，并已由意法半导体（STMicroelectronics）改编为用于Armv7-A平台。 Arm正在转让Trusted Firmware项目，该项目将由Linaro作为开源项目进行管理。<ref>https://www.trustedfirmware.org/</ref>

当使用STM32 MPU平台时，它用作STM32 MPU平台上的第一阶段引导加载程序（FSBL）。 [[Boot_chains_overview#STM32MP boot chains|trusted boot chain]].

Trusted Firmware-A还使用各种Arm接口标准实施安全的监视器:
* 电源状态协调接口（PSCI） <ref name=psci>http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.den0022d/Power_State_Coordination_Interface_PDD_v1_1_DEN0022D.pdf</ref>

* SMC呼叫约定 <ref name=smc>http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.den0028b/ARM_DEN0028B_SMC_Calling_Convention.pdf </ref>
* 系统控制和管理界面<ref>http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.den0056a/DEN0056A_System_Control_and_Management_Interface.pdf </ref>

Trusted Firmware-A 通常缩写为 TF-A.

== Architecture ==

The global architecture of TF-A is explained in the Trusted Firmware-A design <ref>{{CodeSource | TF-A | docs/firmware-design.rst}}</ref> document.

TF-A is divided into several binaries, each with a dedicated main role. For 32-bit Arm processors (AArch32), it is divided into four steps (in order of execution):
* Boot loader stage 1 (BL1) application processor trusted ROM
* Boot loader stage 2 (BL2) trusted boot firmware
* Boot loader stage 3-2 (BL32) runtime software
* Boot loader stage 3-3 (BL33) non-trusted firmware

BL1, BL2 and BL32 are parts of TF-A.

BL1 is now optional, and can be removed by enabling the compilation flag: BL2_AT_EL3. It is then removed for the STM32MP1, as all BL1 tasks are done by [[:Category:ROM code|ROM code]], or BL2.

BL33 is outside of TF-A. This is the first non-secure code loaded by TF-A. During the boot sequence, this is the secondary stage boot loader (SSBL). For STM32 MPU platforms, the SSBL is [[U-Boot overview|U-Boot]] by default.

TF-A can manage its configuration with a [[STM32MP15_device_tree#Device tree structure for Linux, U-Boot and TF-A|device tree]], as this is the case on STM32MP1. It is a reduced version of the Linux kernel one, with only the devices used during boot. It can be configured with [[STM32CubeMX]].

In STMicroelectronics' implementation, the 2 binaries, BL2 and BL32, and the device tree are put together in a single binary, to be loaded at once to the SYSRAM by the ROM code.

TF-A loading steps:
# ROM code loads TF-A binary and calls BL2
# BL2 prepares BL32
# BL2 loads BL33
# BL2 calls BL32
# BL32 calls BL33

== Boot loader stages ==

=== BL1 ===
BL1 is the first stage executed, and is designed to act as ROM code; it is loaded and executed in internal RAM.
It is not used for the STM32MP1. As the  STM32MP1 has its own proprietary [[:Category:ROM code|ROM code]], this part can be removed and BL2 is then the first TF-A binary to be executed.

=== BL2 ===
BL2 (trusted boot firmware) is in charge of loading the next-stage images (secure and non secure).
To achieve this role, BL2 has to initialize all the required peripherals.

It has to initialize the security components.<br>
For the STM32MP15, these security peripherals are:
* boot and security, and OTP control ([[BSEC internal peripheral]])
* extended TrustZone protection controller ([[ETZPC internal peripheral]])
* TrustZone address space controller for DDR ([[TZC internal peripheral]])

BL2 is also in charge of initializing the DDR and clock tree.

The boot peripheral has to be initialized.<br>
On the STM32MP15, it can be one of the following:
* SD-card via the [[SDMMC internal peripheral]]
* eMMC via the [[SDMMC internal peripheral]]
* NAND via the [[FMC internal peripheral]]
* NOR via the [[QUADSPI internal peripheral]]

USB ([[OTG internal peripheral]]) or UART([[USART internal peripheral]]) are used when Flashing, see [[STM32CubeProgrammer]] for more details.

BL2 also integrates image verification and authentication. Authentication is achieved by calling [[STM32MP15 ROM code overview|BootROM]] verification services.

At the end of its execution, after having loaded BL32 and the next boot stage (BL33), BL2 jumps to BL32.

=== BL32 ===
BL32 provides runtime secure services. In TF-A, the BL32 default implementation is SP_min solution.
It is described in the TF-A functionality list <ref name=readme/> as:
"A minimal AArch32 Secure Payload (SP_MIN) to demonstrate PSCI <ref name=psci/> library integration with AArch32 EL3 Runtime Software."

This minimal implementation can be replaced with a trusted OS or trusted environment execution (TEE), such as [[OP-TEE overview|OP-TEE]]. 
Both solutions (SP_min or OP-TEE) are supported by STMicroelectronics for STM32MP1.

BL32 acts as a secure monitor and thus provides secure services to non-secure OSs. These services are called by non-secure software with secure monitor calls <ref name=smc/>.

This code is in charge of standard service calls, like PSCI <ref name=psci/>.<br/>

It also provides STMicroelectronics dedicated services, to access secure peripherals. On the  STM32MP1, these services are used to access [[RCC internal peripheral]], [[PWR internal peripheral]], [[RTC internal peripheral]] or [[BSEC internal peripheral]].
