When SPM-MM is enabled, I cannot use the TRNG SMC services. /* These macros are used to identify SPM-MM calls using the SMC function ID */ #define SPM_MM_FID_MASK U(0xffff) #define SPM_MM_FID_MIN_VALUE U(0x40) #define SPM_MM_FID_MAX_VALUE U(0x7f) #define is_spm_mm_fid(_fid) \ ((((_fid) & SPM_MM_FID_MASK) >= SPM_MM_FID_MIN_VALUE) && \ (((_fid) & SPM_MM_FID_MASK) <= SPM_MM_FID_MAX_VALUE)) Here, the SPM-MM SMC ID range spans from 0x40 to 0x7F, which overlaps with the TRNG SMC service IDs: /* SMC function IDs for TRNG queries */ #define ARM_TRNG_VERSION U(0x84000050) #define ARM_TRNG_FEATURES U(0x84000051) #define ARM_TRNG_GET_UUID U(0x84000052) #define ARM_TRNG_RND32 U(0x84000053) #define ARM_TRNG_RND64 U(0xC4000053) Could you please clarify the rationale behind including the TRNG SMC IDs within the SPM-MM ID range? If this overlap was unintentional, we have to fix it. Looking forward to your insights and feedback on this matter. Thanks Suresh

TF-A Tech Forum on Thu Oct 30th 2025 4.00pm UK

by Olivier Deprez

(re-sending as it seems this email did not properly reach the ML) Hi, On Oct 30th in the TF-A Tech Forum, two different sessions of 30 minutes each will be presented: TF-A SMC fuzzer improvements - Slava Andrianov * Motivating secure world fuzzing * Fuzzer configuration improvements * Future fuzzing work TF-RMM ID registers management - Sona Rebecca Mathew * Earlier RMM directly read ID registers, creating a dependency on EL3 revisions to enable features forcing a version compatibility between the two. * New approach: EL3 capabilities are queried via an SMC call and RMM now uses cached ID register copies populated at cold boot. Includes forward-looking support for FEAT_IDTE3 in TF-A. Regards, Olivier. TF-A Tech Forum Thursday Oct 30, 2025 ⋅ 5pm – 6pm (Central European Time - Paris) Trusted Firmware is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting. Please download and import the following iCalendar (.ics) files to your calendar system.

TF-A Tech Forum on Thu Oct 30th 2025 4.00pm UK

by Olivier Deprez

Hi, On Oct 30th in the TF-A Tech Forum, two different sessions of 30 minutes each will be presented: TF-A SMC fuzzer improvements - Slava Andrianov * Motivating secure world fuzzing * Fuzzer configuration improvements * Future fuzzing work TF-RMM ID registers management - Sona Rebecca Mathew * Earlier RMM directly read ID registers, creating a dependency on EL3 revisions to enable features forcing a version compatibility between the two. * New approach: EL3 capabilities are queried via an SMC call and RMM now uses cached ID register copies populated at cold boot. Includes forward-looking support for FEAT_IDTE3 in TF-A. Regards, Olivier.

Marvell a3700 build failure after toolchain update

by Jayanth Dodderi Chidanand

Hi All, During the TF-A CI upgrade from Arm GNU Toolchain version 14.2.Rel1 to 14.3.Rel1 [1], the Marvell A3700 platform build began failing. Since TF-A does not include the WTMI sources and there has been no response from the Marvell maintainers, the platform has been temporarily removed from the CI [2]. We will restore it once the fix lands in the Marvell upstream and links cleanly with 14.3/binutils 2.44. The sections below outline the CI environment, build configuration, and error details for reference. * Test config tf-l1-build-plat/a3700-default:nil * * CI Test Environment Host: Ubuntu 22.04 (Docker) Toolchains: aarch64-none-elf: Arm GNU 14.3.Rel1 arm-none-eabi (CM3/WTMI): Arm GNU 14.3.Rel1 (fails); passes with 14.2.Rel1 * Representative build params: make CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-elf- CROSS_CM3=arm-none-eabi- PLAT=a3700 BL33=/dev/null CM3_SYSTEM_RESET=1 A3720_DB_PM_WAKEUP_SRC=1 CLOCKSPRESET=CPU_1000_DDR_800 DDR_TOPOLOGY=5 DEBUG=1 V=1 * Build Failure: (*ABS*0x1fff0000): Unknown destination type (ARM/Thumb) in main.o (.text.startup+0x2a): dangerous relocation: unsupported relocation /home/../.../arm-none-eabi/bin/ld: warning: build/sys_init.elf has a LOAD segment with RWX permissions /home/../.../arm-none-eabi/bin/ld: (*ABS*0x1fff0000): Unknown destination type (ARM/Thumb) in main.o main.o: in function `main': .../A3700-utils-marvell/wtmi/sys_init/main.c:350:(.text.startup+0x2a): dangerous relocation: unsupported relocation collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status Root Cause On Cortex-M (Thumb-only), calls/jumps to absolute addresses must have bit0 = 1 to indicate Thumb state. Older binutils tolerated raw addresses like 0x1FFF0000; binutils 2.44 now errors if the destination state is unknown (no stub is inserted). Requested fix (in WTMI sources) Please update any absolute branch/call targets to be explicitly Thumb (LSB=1), or define a Thumb symbol and call that. Acceptance criteria: WTMI links cleanly with arm-none-eabi 14.3.Rel1 (binutils 2.44) with no: * Unknown destination type (ARM/Thumb) * dangerous relocation: unsupported relocation [1] https://developer.arm.com/downloads/-/arm-gnu-toolchain-downloads [2] https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/ci/tf-a-ci-scripts/+/44444/5 Thanks & regards, Jayanth
