+Xilinx Versal
+=============
+
+Trusted Firmware-A implements the EL3 firmware layer for Xilinx Versal.
+The platform only uses the runtime part of TF-A as Xilinx Versal already has a
+BootROM (BL1) and PMC FW (BL2).
+
+BL31 is TF-A.
+BL32 is an optional Secure Payload.
+BL33 is the non-secure world software (U-Boot, Linux etc).
+
+To build:
+```bash
+make RESET_TO_BL31=1 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-elf- PLAT=versal bl31
+```
+
+To build ATF for different platform (supported are "silicon"(default) and "versal_virt")
+```bash
+make RESET_TO_BL31=1 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-elf- PLAT=versal VERSAL_PLATFORM=versal_virt bl31
+```
+
+To build TF-A for JTAG DCC console
+```bash
+make RESET_TO_BL31=1 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-elf- PLAT=versal bl31 VERSAL_CONSOLE=dcc
+```
+
+To build TF-A with Straight-Line Speculation(SLS)
+```bash
+make RESET_TO_BL31=1 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-elf- PLAT=versal bl31 HARDEN_SLS_ALL=1
+```
+
+Xilinx Versal platform specific build options
+---------------------------------------------
+
+* `VERSAL_ATF_MEM_BASE`: Specifies the base address of the bl31 binary.
+* `VERSAL_ATF_MEM_SIZE`: Specifies the size of the memory region of the bl31 binary.
+* `VERSAL_BL32_MEM_BASE`: Specifies the base address of the bl32 binary.
+* `VERSAL_BL32_MEM_SIZE`: Specifies the size of the memory region of the bl32 binary.
+
+* `VERSAL_CONSOLE`: Select the console driver. Options:
+ - `pl011`, `pl011_0`: ARM pl011 UART 0
+ - `pl011_1` : ARM pl011 UART 1
+
+* `VERSAL_PLATFORM`: Select the platform. Options:
+ - `versal_virt` : Versal Virtual platform
+ - `spp_itr6` : SPP ITR6
+ - `emu_itr6` : EMU ITR6
+
+# PLM->TF-A Parameter Passing
+------------------------------
+The PLM populates a data structure with image information for the TF-A. The TF-A
+uses that data to hand off to the loaded images. The address of the handoff
+data structure is passed in the ```PMC_GLOBAL_GLOB_GEN_STORAGE4``` register.
+The register is free to be used by other software once the TF-A is bringing up
+further firmware images.
