[PATCH v7 0/5] Introduction of a remoteproc tee to load signed firmware

Tue Jun 11 00:38:59 PDT 2024


Main updates from version V6:
------------------------------------------

- Fix kernel robot build report on in tee_rproc_find_loaded_rsc_table() inline
  default definition.

Main updates from version V5[1][2]:
------------------------------------------

1) Rework resource table management
  - Rework tee_rproc_parse_fw to temporary map the resource table address
    to create a cached_table (similar to what is done in
    rproc_elf_load_rsc_table()).
  - Rename tee_rproc_get_loaded_rsc_table to tee_rproc_find_loaded_rsc_table
  - Introduce rproc_pa_to_va() allowing to translate the resource table
    physical address to virtual address based on remoteproc carveouts.

2) Merge the 2 "st,stm32-rproc.yaml" bindings patch in one
   As the st,rproc-id" is linked to the introduction of the
   "st,stm32mp1-m4-tee" compatible, merge following patches to address
   Krzysztof concern.
   - [PATCH v5 2/7] dt-bindings: remoteproc: Add compatibility for TEE support
   - [PATCH v5 3/7] dt-bindings: remoteproc: Add processor identifier property

More details on updates are listed in commits messages.

Description of the feature:
--------------------------
This series proposes the implementation of a remoteproc tee driver to
communicate with a TEE trusted application responsible for authenticating
and loading the remoteproc firmware image in an Arm secure context.

1) Principle:

The remoteproc tee driver provides services to communicate with the OP-TEE
trusted application running on the Trusted Execution Context (TEE).
The trusted application in TEE manages the remote processor lifecycle:

- authenticating and loading firmware images,
- isolating and securing the remote processor memories,
- supporting multi-firmware (e.g., TF-M + Zephyr on a Cortex-M33),
- managing the start and stop of the firmware by the TEE.

2) Format of the signed image:

Refer to:
https://github.com/OP-TEE/optee_os/blob/master/ta/remoteproc/src/remoteproc_core.c#L18-L57

3) OP-TEE trusted application API:

Refer to:
https://github.com/OP-TEE/optee_os/blob/master/ta/remoteproc/include/ta_remoteproc.h

4) OP-TEE signature script

Refer to:
https://github.com/OP-TEE/optee_os/blob/master/scripts/sign_rproc_fw.py

Example of usage:
sign_rproc_fw.py --in <fw1.elf> --in <fw2.elf> --out <signed_fw.sign> --key ${OP-TEE_PATH}/keys/default.pem


5) Impact on User space Application

No sysfs impact.the user only needs to provide the signed firmware image
instead of the ELF image.


For more information about the implementation, a presentation is available here
(note that the format of the signed image has evolved between the presentation
and the integration in OP-TEE).
