1TF-A Build Instructions for Marvell Platforms
2=============================================
3
4This section describes how to compile the Trusted Firmware-A (TF-A) project for Marvell's platforms.
5
6Build Instructions
7------------------
8(1) Set the cross compiler
9
10    .. code:: shell
11
12        > export CROSS_COMPILE=/path/to/toolchain/aarch64-linux-gnu-
13
14(2) Set path for FIP images:
15
16Set U-Boot image path (relatively to TF-A root or absolute path)
17
18    .. code:: shell
19
20        > export BL33=path/to/u-boot.bin
21
22For example: if U-Boot project (and its images) is located at ``~/project/u-boot``,
23BL33 should be ``~/project/u-boot/u-boot.bin``
24
25    .. note::
26
27       *u-boot.bin* should be used and not *u-boot-spl.bin*
28
29Set MSS/SCP image path (mandatory only for Armada80x0)
30
31    .. code:: shell
32
33        > export SCP_BL2=path/to/mrvl_scp_bl2*.img
34
35(3) Armada-37x0 build requires WTP tools installation.
36
37See below in the section "Tools and external components installation".
38Install ARM 32-bit cross compiler, which is required for building WTMI image for CM3
39
40    .. code:: shell
41
42        > sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi
43
44(4) Clean previous build residuals (if any)
45
46    .. code:: shell
47
48        > make distclean
49
50(5) Build TF-A
51
52There are several build options:
53
54- DEBUG
55
56        Default is without debug information (=0). in order to enable it use ``DEBUG=1``.
57        Must be disabled when building UART recovery images due to current console driver
58        implementation that is not compatible with Xmodem protocol used for boot image download.
59
60- LOG_LEVEL
61
62        Defines the level of logging which will be purged to the default output port.
63
64        LOG_LEVEL_NONE		0
65        LOG_LEVEL_ERROR		10
66        LOG_LEVEL_NOTICE	20
67        LOG_LEVEL_WARNING	30
68        LOG_LEVEL_INFO		40
69        LOG_LEVEL_VERBOSE	50
70
71- USE_COHERENT_MEM
72
73        This flag determines whether to include the coherent memory region in the
74        BL memory map or not.
75
76- LLC_ENABLE
77
78        Flag defining the LLC (L3) cache state. The cache is enabled by default (``LLC_ENABLE=1``).
79
80- LLC_SRAM
81
82        Flag defining the LLC (L3) cache SRAM support. The feature is
83        disabled by default (``LLC_ENABLE=0``).
84        When LLC SRAM is enabled, the secure payload (BL32) is loaded into this
85        SRAM area instead of the DRAM.
86
87- MARVELL_SECURE_BOOT
88
89        Build trusted(=1)/non trusted(=0) image, default is non trusted.
90
91- BLE_PATH
92
93        Points to BLE (Binary ROM extension) sources folder. Only required for A8K builds.
94        The parameter is optional, its default value is ``plat/marvell/armada/a8k/common/ble``.
95
96- MV_DDR_PATH
97
98        For A7/8K, use this parameter to point to mv_ddr driver sources to allow BLE build. For A37x0,
99        it is used for ddr_tool build.
100
101        Usage example: MV_DDR_PATH=path/to/mv_ddr
102
103        The parameter is optional for A7/8K, when this parameter is not set, the mv_ddr
104        sources are expected to be located at: drivers/marvell/mv_ddr. However, the parameter
105        is necessary for A37x0.
106
107        For the mv_ddr source location, check the section "Tools and external components installation"
108
109- DDR_TOPOLOGY
110
111        For Armada37x0 only, the DDR topology map index/name, default is 0.
112
113        Supported Options:
114            - DDR3 1CS (0): DB-88F3720-DDR3-Modular (512MB); EspressoBIN (512MB)
115            - DDR4 1CS (1): DB-88F3720-DDR4-Modular (512MB)
116            - DDR3 2CS (2): EspressoBIN V3-V5 (1GB)
117            - DDR4 2CS (3): DB-88F3720-DDR4-Modular (4GB)
118            - DDR3 1CS (4): DB-88F3720-DDR3-Modular (1GB)
119            - DDR4 1CS (5): EspressoBin V7 (1GB)
120            - DDR4 2CS (6): EspressoBin V7 (2GB)
121            - CUSTOMER (CUST): Customer board, DDR3 1CS 512MB
122
123- CLOCKSPRESET
124
125        For Armada37x0 only, the clock tree configuration preset including CPU and DDR frequency,
126        default is CPU_800_DDR_800.
127
128            - CPU_600_DDR_600	-	CPU at 600 MHz, DDR at 600 MHz
129            - CPU_800_DDR_800	-	CPU at 800 MHz, DDR at 800 MHz
130            - CPU_1000_DDR_800	-	CPU at 1000 MHz, DDR at 800 MHz
131            - CPU_1200_DDR_750	-	CPU at 1200 MHz, DDR at 750 MHz
132
133- BOOTDEV
134
135        For Armada37x0 only, the flash boot device, default is ``SPINOR``.
136
137        Currently, Armada37x0 only supports ``SPINOR``, ``SPINAND``, ``EMMCNORM`` and ``SATA``:
138
139            - SPINOR - SPI NOR flash boot
140            - SPINAND - SPI NAND flash boot
141            - EMMCNORM - eMMC Download Mode
142
143                Download boot loader or program code from eMMC flash into CM3 or CA53
144                Requires full initialization and command sequence
145
146            - SATA - SATA device boot
147
148- PARTNUM
149
150        For Armada37x0 only, the boot partition number, default is 0.
151
152        To boot from eMMC, the value should be aligned with the parameter in
153        U-Boot with name of ``CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART``, whose value by default is
154        1. For details about CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART, please refer to the U-Boot
155        build instructions.
156
157- WTMI_IMG
158
159        For Armada37x0 only, the path of the WTMI image can point to an image which
160        does nothing, an image which supports EFUSE or a customized CM3 firmware
161        binary. The default image is wtmi.bin that built from sources in WTP
162        folder, which is the next option. If the default image is OK, then this
163        option should be skipped.
164
165- WTP
166
167    For Armada37x0 only, use this parameter to point to wtptools source code
168    directory, which can be found as a3700_utils.zip in the release. Usage
169    example: ``WTP=/path/to/a3700_utils``
170
171    For example, in order to build the image in debug mode with log level up to 'notice' level run
172
173    .. code:: shell
174
175        > make DEBUG=1 USE_COHERENT_MEM=0 LOG_LEVEL=20 PLAT=<MARVELL_PLATFORM> all fip
176
177    And if we want to build a Armada37x0 image in debug mode with log level up to 'notice' level,
178    the image has the preset CPU at 1000 MHz, preset DDR3 at 800 MHz, the DDR topology of DDR4 2CS,
179    the image boot from SPI NOR flash partition 0, and the image is non trusted in WTP, the command
180    line is as following
181
182    .. code:: shell
183
184        > make DEBUG=1 USE_COHERENT_MEM=0 LOG_LEVEL=20 CLOCKSPRESET=CPU_1000_DDR_800 \
185            MARVELL_SECURE_BOOT=0 DDR_TOPOLOGY=3 BOOTDEV=SPINOR PARTNUM=0 PLAT=a3700 all fip
186
187    Supported MARVELL_PLATFORM are:
188        - a3700 (for both A3720 DB and EspressoBin)
189        - a70x0
190        - a70x0_amc (for AMC board)
191        - a80x0
192        - a80x0_mcbin (for MacciatoBin)
193
194Special Build Flags
195--------------------
196
197- PLAT_RECOVERY_IMAGE_ENABLE
198    When set this option to enable secondary recovery function when build atf.
199    In order to build UART recovery image this operation should be disabled for
200    a70x0 and a80x0 because of hardware limitation (boot from secondary image
201    can interrupt UART recovery process). This MACRO definition is set in
202    ``plat/marvell/armada/a8k/common/include/platform_def.h`` file.
203
204- DDR32
205    In order to work in 32bit DDR, instead of the default 64bit ECC DDR,
206    this flag should be set to 1.
207
208For more information about build options, please refer to the
209:ref:`Build Options` document.
210
211

225
226Tools and external components installation
227------------------------------------------
228
229Armada37x0 Builds require installation of 3 components
230~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
231
232(1) ARM cross compiler capable of building images for the service CPU (CM3).
233    This component is usually included in the Linux host packages.
234    On Debian/Ubuntu hosts the default GNU ARM tool chain can be installed
235    using the following command
236
237    .. code:: shell
238
239        > sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi
240
241    Only if required, the default tool chain prefix ``arm-linux-gnueabi-`` can be
242    overwritten using the environment variable ``CROSS_CM3``.
243    Example for BASH shell
244
245    .. code:: shell
246
247        > export CROSS_CM3=/opt/arm-cross/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi
248
249(2) DDR initialization library sources (mv_ddr) available at the following repository
250    (use the "mv_ddr-armada-atf-mainline" branch):
251
252    https://github.com/MarvellEmbeddedProcessors/mv-ddr-marvell.git
