Apologies for late notice but the TF-A TechForum is cancelled today. We were hoping a topic would be ready however that is not the case. I try to send notifications a day before but over looked that last night. I will be provisionally updating the session on 2nd June with a topic. Thanks Joanna

TF-A v2.9 Release Schedule

by Joanna Farley

TF-A Community, This is to notify that we are planning to target the Trusted Firmware-A 2.9 release during the middle of May 2023 as part of the regular 6 month cadence. The aim is to consolidate all TF-A work since the 2.8 release. As part of this, a release candidate tag is targeted to be created and release activities commence from 10th May 2023 across all TF-A repositories. Essentially we will not merge any major enhancements from this date until the release is made. Please ensure any patches desired to make the 2.9 release are submitted in good time to be complete by 9th May 2023. Any major enhancement patches still open after that date will not be merged until after the release. This will involve the various repositories making up the broader TF-A project including the TF-A mainline, TF-A Tests, Hafnium, TF-A CI Scripts and TF-A CI Job. In addition a TF-RMM repository release will be made that is compatible with v2.9. We will endeavour minimise the disruption on patch merging and complete release activities ASAP after we start normally completing within 7-10 working days. Regards Joanna Farley

[RFC] Common API to retrieve pre-allocated share memory for Transfer List

by Raymond Mao

Hi, I am currently doing research to implement the Transfer List to comply with Arm's firmware handoff spec ( https://github.com/FirmwareHandoff/firmware_handoff) in order to have a standardized handoff approach between different firmware stages during boot. The idea is to create a Transfer List in BL2 and cache it into a pre-allocated memory in SRAM that can be shared between BL2 and BL3x. A prototype currently available is creating APIs under qemu platform code to retrieve the pre-defined memory address (The shared memory region is defined in platform_def.h). But I think we need to define a common API for this purpose to support all platforms. Please share your views or any suggestions. Thanks. Regards, Raymond

[RFC] Proposed location to host the firmware handoff specification.

by Jose Marinho

Hi, Arm worked to draft a firmware handoff [1] specification, evolving it based on community feedback. This activity followed the request of some members of the Arm ecosystem [2]. The spec (still at ALP – feedback/comments welcome!) standardizes how information is propagated between different firmware components during boot. The spec hopes to remove the reliance on bespoke/platform-specific information handoff mechanisms, thus reducing the code maintenance burden. The concept of entry types is present in the spec – these are data structure layouts that carry a specific type of data. New types are meant to be added, following the needs and use-cases of the different communities. Thus, these communities should be empowered to request new types! To enable community contributions, the specification must be hosted in a location that is friendly to change requests. We propose to host the spec in trustedfirmware.org (tf.org). Tf.org hosts several open-source projects and already has an open governance model. TF-A, and the associated community, rely on tf.org, and thus are already well equipped to maintain this specification and keep it up to date. Tf.org is agnostic of any downstream projects that would adopt this specification (e.g. U-boot, EDK2, etc.). We welcome the views of the communities and want to understand if there are any strong objections to what’s being proposed! If anyone has objections, we are happy to consider alternatives and associated trade-offs.

Allow platforms to deny CPU power off request

by Varun Wadekar

Hello, We have a use case where we want to deny the CPU power off from a certain PE. The current lib/psci does not provide a way for a platform to do this. We have support to return an error from svc_off, but this does not cover the scenario where svc_off is NULL. There are multiple ways of handling this scenario. 1. Introduce a new platform function to check if CPU_OFF is allowed on the core 2. Return an error code from the pwr_domain_off() handler and unwind the CPU_OFF request 3. Something else. Any suggestions? -Varun
