Re: [TF-M] augmenting the SVC_Handler_IPC() to support custom services

by Ken Liu (Arm Technology China)

Hi Alan, Looks like you are working under IPC model, and you need something to do in core/spm. If you can provide more details then it will be great. From the code change itself, it has no problem, I am planning a re-structure on this part so if there are issues we can fix them later one. But when we look at the service programming model, we need to know the newly added SVC function is really an 'spm/core' function. Calling an SVC typically happen when we want to access privileged resource (registers or restricted memory), or some other customized behaviours. We need to be careful when we adding core functionalities because TF-M IPC model maintains a very small core and provide only necessary core functionalities (scheduling, spm). There are PSA RoT Services who has a higher privileged level already, and secure partition can access the peripheral they want. Thanks. /Ken -----Original Message----- From: TF-M <tf-m-bounces(a)lists.trustedfirmware.org> On Behalf Of DeMars, Alan via TF-M Sent: Thursday, October 10, 2019 4:38 AM To: 'tf-m(a)lists.trustedfirmware.org' <tf-m(a)lists.trustedfirmware.org> Subject: [TF-M] augmenting the SVC_Handler_IPC() to support custom services I need to add custom SPM APIs to augment our SP services.

augmenting the SVC_Handler_IPC() to support custom services

Design proposal: Changing secure service call in library model

by Mate Toth-Pal

Hi All, I'm planning to change the way secure services are called in Library model. The design proposal can be found here: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/#/c/trusted-firmware-m/+/2201/ Please note that the changes proposed by this document does not affect the PSA dev API, and does not affect IPC model. Please share your opinion in gerrit comments Thanks, Mate

Regression test - SST - MAX_ASSET_SIZE

by Vikas Katariya

Hi, This would test the interface for NS and S with the set, get and remove with maximum `SST_MAX_ASSET_SIZE` and different sizes for all platforms (including feature-twincpu targets in the near future). It uses a common 4K buffer in total to assist with read and write of asset data. We need to make sure we are able to perform this operation flawlessly on all the targets. Patch Review Request: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/trusted-firmware-m/+/2167 https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/trusted-firmware-m/+/2168 Thanks & Best Regards, Vikas Katariya IMPORTANT NOTICE: The contents of this email and any attachments are confidential and may also be privileged.
