February 2026 - TF-A - lists.trustedfirmware.org

by Thomas Bonnefille

Hello, I'm currently working on an NXP i.MX93 and I'm having issues with the commit fa28b3a adding, by default, link-time optimization. When using a commit more recent than fa28b3a my kernel freezes at some point (after 1.2s to 1.8s from boot), there are no logs indicating a problem, just a freeze. It doesn't always appear at the same time in boot but I've never been able to reach a shell. Using master with this commit reverted results in a working system. If you want to reproduce the issue, I did produce it with : - Mainline Barebox 2025.09 (slightly modified but nothing that should interfere with TF-A) - Mainline Linux 6.18.13 with a simple embedded Buildroot initramfs loaded via TFTP Regards, Thomas Bonnefille

Re: Unable to build the ZynqMP platform with armclang when ENABLE_LTO=1.

by Taticharla, Venkata Sai

[AMD Official Use Only - AMD Internal Distribution Only] Hi Boyan, Applied the patch shared by you,and the -flto-partition error is now resolved. However, this exposes a new set of issues during the link stage related to assembly function call Trimmed out the linker error log : (.text.asm.bl31_entrypoint+0x144): undefined reference to `bl31_main' (.text.asm.el3_exit+0x30): undefined reference to `per_world_context' (.text.asm.sync_exception_handler+0x68): undefined reference to `rt_svc_descs_indices' Additionally, when we are passing the armclang assembler as part of build command,running into below errors: Error log : Makefile:970: Makefile:970: The configured AArch64 assembler could not be identified: Makefile:970: Makefile:970: '/tools/installs/arm/safety/armcc/6.16.2/bin/armasm' (via `AS` parameter) Makefile:970: Makefile:970: The following tools are supported: Makefile:970: Makefile:970: - Arm(r) Compiler for Embedded `armclang` Makefile:970: - LLVM Clang (`clang`) Makefile:970: - GNU GCC (`gcc`) Makefile:970: Makefile:970: The build system will treat this assembler as GNU GCC (`gcc`). Please let me know if this configuration is expected to work with ENABLE_LTO=1, or if additional changes (e.g., toolchain selection or linker/assembler handling) are required. Thanks for your guidance. Best regards, Venkata Sai .T .

Unable to build the ZynqMP platform with armclang when ENABLE_LTO=1.

by Taticharla, Venkata Sai

[AMD Official Use Only - AMD Internal Distribution Only] Hello Maintainers, we are trying to build TF‑A BL31 for the ZynqMP (Cortex‑A53) platform with Arm Compiler 6 (armclang) and ENABLE_LTO=1, and I’m running into several toolchain‑related build and link issues. Setup : Platform: ZynqMP Toolchains: Arm Compiler for Embedded 6.16.2 (armclang) Xilinx AArch64 GNU tools from Vitis 2025.2 (aarch64-xilinx-elf-*) LTO is enabled in plat/xilinx/zynqmp/platform.mk via ENABLE_LTO := 1. Issues observed : With CC=armclang and AArch64 linker (GCC), the build fails with: armclang: error: unknown argument: '-flto-partition=one' This flag appears when ENABLE_LTO=1 and the linker is detected as gnu-gcc. If I keep CC=armclang and ENABLE_LTO=1 but change the linker, I get linker‑specific errors With the Arm linker (LD=armlink or LD=armclang, which invokes armlink under the hood): Fatal error: L3900U: Unrecognized option '-z'. This is due to GNU‑style -z options (and similar flags) being passed to armlink. As -z options is specific to GNU linker, a armlink style flag would address the unrecognised option but we are observing dependency on scatter files. Fatal error: L6031U: Could not open scatter description file plat/xilinx/zynqmp//scat/bl31.scat: No such file or directory Could you please help us with pointers to address the linker issues . With regards , Venkata Sai .T .
