1Arm Development Platform Build Options
2======================================
3
4Arm Platform Build Options
5--------------------------
6
7-  ``ARM_BL31_IN_DRAM``: Boolean option to select loading of BL31 in TZC secured
8   DRAM. By default, BL31 is in the secure SRAM. Set this flag to 1 to load
9   BL31 in TZC secured DRAM. If TSP is present, then setting this option also
10   sets the TSP location to DRAM and ignores the ``ARM_TSP_RAM_LOCATION`` build
11   flag.
12
13-  ``ARM_CONFIG_CNTACR``: boolean option to unlock access to the ``CNTBase<N>``
14   frame registers by setting the ``CNTCTLBase.CNTACR<N>`` register bits. The
15   frame number ``<N>`` is defined by ``PLAT_ARM_NSTIMER_FRAME_ID``, which
16   should match the frame used by the Non-Secure image (normally the Linux
17   kernel). Default is true (access to the frame is allowed).
18
19-  ``ARM_DISABLE_TRUSTED_WDOG``: boolean option to disable the Trusted Watchdog.
20   By default, Arm platforms use a watchdog to trigger a system reset in case
21   an error is encountered during the boot process (for example, when an image
22   could not be loaded or authenticated). The watchdog is enabled in the early
23   platform setup hook at BL1 and disabled in the BL1 prepare exit hook. The
24   Trusted Watchdog may be disabled at build time for testing or development
25   purposes.
26
27-  ``ARM_LINUX_KERNEL_AS_BL33``: The Linux kernel expects registers x0-x3 to
28   have specific values at boot. This boolean option allows the Trusted Firmware
29   to have a Linux kernel image as BL33 by preparing the registers to these
30   values before jumping to BL33. This option defaults to 0 (disabled). For
31   AArch64 ``RESET_TO_BL31`` and for AArch32 ``RESET_TO_SP_MIN`` must be 1 when
32   using it. If this option is set to 1, ``ARM_PRELOADED_DTB_BASE`` must be set
33   to the location of a device tree blob (DTB) already loaded in memory. The
34   Linux Image address must be specified using the ``PRELOADED_BL33_BASE``
35   option.
36
37-  ``ARM_PLAT_MT``: This flag determines whether the Arm platform layer has to
38   cater for the multi-threading ``MT`` bit when accessing MPIDR. When this flag
39   is set, the functions which deal with MPIDR assume that the ``MT`` bit in
40   MPIDR is set and access the bit-fields in MPIDR accordingly. Default value of
41   this flag is 0. Note that this option is not used on FVP platforms.
42
43-  ``ARM_RECOM_STATE_ID_ENC``: The PSCI1.0 specification recommends an encoding
44   for the construction of composite state-ID in the power-state parameter.
45   The existing PSCI clients currently do not support this encoding of
46   State-ID yet. Hence this flag is used to configure whether to use the
47   recommended State-ID encoding or not. The default value of this flag is 0,
48   in which case the platform is configured to expect NULL in the State-ID
49   field of power-state parameter.
50
51-  ``ARM_ROTPK_LOCATION``: used when ``TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT=1``. It specifies the
52   location of the ROTPK returned by the function ``plat_get_rotpk_info()``
53   for Arm platforms. Depending on the selected option, the proper private key
54   must be specified using the ``ROT_KEY`` option when building the Trusted
55   Firmware. This private key will be used by the certificate generation tool
56   to sign the BL2 and Trusted Key certificates. Available options for
57   ``ARM_ROTPK_LOCATION`` are:
58
59   -  ``regs`` : return the ROTPK hash stored in the Trusted root-key storage
60      registers.
61   -  ``devel_rsa`` : return a development public key hash embedded in the BL1
62      and BL2 binaries. This hash has been obtained from the RSA public key
63      ``arm_rotpk_rsa.der``, located in ``plat/arm/board/common/rotpk``. To use
64      this option, ``arm_rotprivk_rsa.pem`` must be specified as ``ROT_KEY``
65      when creating the certificates.
66   -  ``devel_ecdsa`` : return a development public key hash embedded in the BL1
67      and BL2 binaries. This hash has been obtained from the ECDSA public key
68      ``arm_rotpk_ecdsa.der``, located in ``plat/arm/board/common/rotpk``. To
69      use this option, ``arm_rotprivk_ecdsa.pem`` must be specified as
70      ``ROT_KEY`` when creating the certificates.
71   -  ``devel_full_dev_rsa_key`` : returns a development public key embedded in
72      the BL1 and BL2 binaries. This key has been obtained from the RSA public
73      key ``arm_rotpk_rsa.der``, located in ``plat/arm/board/common/rotpk``.
74
75-  ``ARM_ROTPK_HASH``: used when ``ARM_ROTPK_LOCATION=devel_*``, excluding
76   ``devel_full_dev_rsa_key``. Specifies the location of the ROTPK hash. Not
77   expected to be a build option. This defaults to
78   ``plat/arm/board/common/rotpk/*_sha256.bin`` depending on the specified
79   algorithm. Providing ``ROT_KEY`` enforces generation of the hash from the
80   ``ROT_KEY`` and overwrites the default hash file.
81
82-  ``ARM_TSP_RAM_LOCATION``: location of the TSP binary. Options:
83
84   -  ``tsram`` : Trusted SRAM (default option when TBB is not enabled)
85   -  ``tdram`` : Trusted DRAM (if available)
86   -  ``dram`` : Secure region in DRAM (default option when TBB is enabled,
87      configured by the TrustZone controller)
88
89-  ``ARM_XLAT_TABLES_LIB_V1``: boolean option to compile TF-A with version 1
90   of the translation tables library instead of version 2. It is set to 0 by
91   default, which selects version 2.
92
93-  ``ARM_CRYPTOCELL_INTEG`` : bool option to enable TF-A to invoke Arm®
94   TrustZone® CryptoCell functionality for Trusted Board Boot on capable Arm
95   platforms. If this option is specified, then the path to the CryptoCell
96   SBROM library must be specified via ``CCSBROM_LIB_PATH`` flag.
97
98-  ``ARM_GPT_SUPPORT``: Enable GPT parser to get the entry address and length of
99   the various partitions present in the GPT image. This support is available
100   only for the BL2 component, and it is disabled by default.
101   The following diagram shows the view of the FIP partition inside the GPT
102   image:

111Arm CSS Platform-Specific Build Options
112---------------------------------------
113
114-  ``CSS_DETECT_PRE_1_7_0_SCP``: Boolean flag to detect SCP version
115   incompatibility. Version 1.7.0 of the SCP firmware made a non-backwards
116   compatible change to the MTL protocol, used for AP/SCP communication.
117   TF-A no longer supports earlier SCP versions. If this option is set to 1
118   then TF-A will detect if an earlier version is in use. Default is 1.
119
120-  ``CSS_LOAD_SCP_IMAGES``: Boolean flag, which when set, adds SCP_BL2 and
121   SCP_BL2U to the FIP and FWU_FIP respectively, and enables them to be loaded
122   during boot. Default is 1.
123
124-  ``CSS_USE_SCMI_SDS_DRIVER``: Boolean flag which selects SCMI/SDS drivers
125   instead of SCPI/BOM driver for communicating with the SCP during power
126   management operations and for SCP RAM Firmware transfer. If this option
127   is set to 1, then SCMI/SDS drivers will be used. Default is 0.
128
129 - ``CSS_SGI_CHIP_COUNT``: Configures the number of chips on a SGI/RD platform
130   which supports multi-chip operation. If ``CSS_SGI_CHIP_COUNT`` is set to any
131   valid value greater than 1, the platform code performs required configuration
132   to support multi-chip operation.
133
134- ``CSS_SGI_PLATFORM_VARIANT``: Selects the variant of a SGI/RD platform. A
135    particular SGI/RD platform may have multiple variants which may differ in
136    core count, cluster count or other peripherals. This build option is used
137    to select the appropriate platform variant for the build. The range of
138    valid values is platform specific.
139
140- ``CSS_SYSTEM_GRACEFUL_RESET``: Build option to enable graceful powerdown of
141   CPU core on reset. This build option can be used on CSS platforms that
142   require all the CPUs to execute the CPU specific power down sequence to
143   complete a warm reboot sequence in which only the CPUs are power cycled.
144
145Arm FVP Build Options
146---------------------
147
148- ``FVP_TRUSTED_SRAM_SIZE``: Size (in kilobytes) of the Trusted SRAM region to
149  utilize when building for the FVP platform. This option defaults to 256.
150
151Arm Juno Build Options
152----------------------
153
154-  ``JUNO_AARCH32_EL3_RUNTIME``: This build flag enables you to execute EL3
155   runtime software in AArch32 mode, which is required to run AArch32 on Juno.
156   By default this flag is set to '0'. Enabling this flag builds BL1 and BL2 in
157   AArch64 and facilitates the loading of ``SP_MIN`` and BL33 as AArch32 executable
158   images.
