Hi Bohdan,

@Sherry Zhang is the author of FWU service. She can provide the implementation details.

Just some general information here. This shared boot area is used by boot loader to share some measured/boot data with TF-M services, such as Initial Attestation and FWU.

Regarding FWU, if I understand correctly, FWU leaves the actual shared data fetch and parse work to a bootloader specific “driver” under FWU service.

For example, FWU provides a reference implementation of MCUBoot code to access this shared data and acquire image TLV.

Please see `secure_fw/partitions/firmware_update/bootloader/mcuboot`

Sherry, please correct me if anything above is inaccurate.

Best regards,

Hu Ziji

Hi Bohdan,

Assume you are aware that the CODE sharing topic was discussed in Tech forum on Oct 29, 2020.

You can find presentation and the records here: https://www.trustedfirmware.org/meetings/tf-m-technical-forum/

Hope that helps,

Anton

Hi everyone!

I see definitions of BOOT_TFM_SHARED_DATA_* in platform\ext\target\arm\musca_b1\sse_200\partition\region_defs.h but I don’t see any real usage of that memory.

I have found TF-M doc that describe usage of shared memory  for Firmware Update Service but once again I was not able to find any code that uses that.

I would appreciate if someone could point to docs on this or to code that actually uses shared data between BL2 and TF-M SPE.

Best regards,
