`Trusted Firmware-A (TF-A) <https://www.trustedfirmware.org/projects/tf-a>`__
is a reference implementation of secure world software for Arm A-Profile
architectures (Armv8-A and Armv7-A), including an Exception Level 3 (EL3)
Secure Monitor. This variable enables the generation of a U-Boot FIT
image with a Trusted Firmware-A (TF-A) binary.
Its default value is "0", so set it to "1" to enable this functionality::
UBOOT_FIT_ARM_TRUSTED_FIRMWARE = "1"
:term:`UBOOT_FIT_ARM_TRUSTED_FIRMWARE_IMAGE`
Specifies the path to the Trusted Firmware-A (TF-A) binary. Its default
value is "bl31.bin"::
UBOOT_FIT_ARM_TRUSTED_FIRMWARE_IMAGE ?= "bl31.bin"
If a relative path is provided, the file is expected to be relative to
U-Boot's :term:`B` directory. An absolute path can be provided too,
e.g.::
UBOOT_FIT_ARM_TRUSTED_FIRMWARE_IMAGE ?= "${DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE}/bl31.bin"
If the Trusted Firmware-A (TF-A) binary is built in a separate recipe,
you must add the necessary dependency in a U-Boot ``.bbappend`` file. The
recipe name for Trusted Firmware-A (TF-A) binary is
``trusted-firmware-a``, which comes from the
:yocto_git:`meta-arm </meta-arm>` layer::
do_compile[depends] += "trusted-firmware-a:do_deploy"
:term:`UBOOT_FIT_CONF_USER_LOADABLES`
Adds one or more user-defined images to the ``loadables`` property of the
configuration node of the U-Boot Image Tree Source (ITS). This variable
is handled by the local shell in the recipe so appropriate escaping
should be done, e.g. escaping quotes.::
UBOOT_FIT_CONF_USER_LOADABLES = '\"fwa\", \"fwb\"'

of bits. The default value for this variable is set to "2048"
by the :ref:`ref-classes-uboot-sign` class.
:term:`UBOOT_FIT_TEE`
A Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) is a secure environment for
executing code, ensuring high levels of trust in asset management within
the surrounding system. This variable enables the generation of a U-Boot
FIT image with a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) binary.
Its default value is "0", so set it to "1" to enable this functionality::
UBOOT_FIT_TEE = "1"
:term:`UBOOT_FIT_TEE_IMAGE`
Specifies the path to the Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) binary. Its
default value is "tee-raw.bin"::
UBOOT_FIT_TEE_IMAGE ?= "tee-raw.bin"
If a relative path is provided, the file is expected to be relative to
U-Boot's :term:`B` directory. An absolute path can be provided too,
e.g.::
UBOOT_FIT_TEE_IMAGE ?= "${DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE}/tee-raw.bin"
If the Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) binary is built in a separate
recipe, you must add the necessary dependency in a U-Boot ``.bbappend``
file. The recipe name for Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) binary is
``optee-os``, which comes from the :yocto_git:`meta-arm </meta-arm>`
layer::
do_compile[depends] += "optee-os:do_deploy"
:term:`UBOOT_FIT_USER_SETTINGS`
Add a user-specific snippet to the U-Boot Image Tree Source (ITS). This
variable allows the user to add one or more user-defined ``/images`` node
to the U-Boot Image Tree Source (ITS). For more details, please refer to
https://fitspec.osfw.foundation/\ .
The original content of the U-Boot Image Tree Source (ITS) is as
follows::
images {
uboot {
description = "U-Boot image";
data = /incbin/("u-boot-nodtb.bin");
type = "standalone";
os = "u-boot";
arch = "";
compression = "none";
load = <0x80000000>;
entry = <0x80000000>;
};
};
Users can include their custom ITS snippet in this variable, e.g.::
UBOOT_FIT_FWA_ITS = '\
fwa {\n\
description = \"FW A\";\n\
data = /incbin/(\"fwa.bin\");\n\
type = \"firmware\";\n\
arch = \"\";\n\
os = \"\";\n\
load = <0xb2000000>;\n\
entry = <0xb2000000>;\n\
compression = \"none\";\n\
};\n\
'
UBOOT_FIT_USER_SETTINGS = "${UBOOT_FIT_FWA_ITS}"
This variable is handled by the local shell in the recipe so appropriate
escaping should be done, e.g. escaping quotes and adding newlines with
``\n``.
The generated content of the U-Boot Image Tree Source (ITS) is as
follows::
images {
uboot {
description = "U-Boot image";
data = /incbin/("u-boot-nodtb.bin");
type = "standalone";
os = "u-boot";
arch = "";
compression = "none";
load = <0x80000000>;
entry = <0x80000000>;
};
fwa {
description = "FW A";
data = /incbin/("fwa.bin");
type = "firmware";
arch = "";
os = "";
load = <0xb2000000>;
entry = <0xb2000000>;
compression = "none";
};
};
:term:`UBOOT_FITIMAGE_ENABLE`
This variable allows to generate a FIT image for U-Boot, which is one
of the ways to implement a verified boot process.
