Once RVBAR is +initialized, the primary core is powered on. The primary core boots the AP_BL1. +It performs minimum initialization necessary to load and authenticate the AP +firmware image (the FIP image) from the AP QSPI NOR Flash Memory into the +Trusted SRAM. + +AP_BL1 authenticates and loads the AP_BL2 image. AP_BL2 performs additional +initializations, and then authenticates and loads the AP_BL31 and AP_BL33. +AP_BL2 then transfers execution control to AP_BL31, which is the EL3 runtime +firmware. Execution is finally handed off to AP_BL33, which is the non-secure +world (UEFI). + +SCP -> AP_BL1 -> AP_BL2 -> AP_BL31 -> AP_BL33 + +Build Procedure (TF-A only) +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +- Obtain arm `toolchain <https://developer.arm.com/tools-and-software/open-source-software/developer-tools/gnu-toolchain/gnu-a/downloads>`_. + Set the CROSS_COMPILE environment variable to point to the toolchain folder. + +- Build TF-A: + + .. code:: shell + + export CROSS_COMPILE=<path-to-aarch64-gcc>/bin/aarch64-none-elf- + + make PLAT=morello all + +*Copyright (c) 2020-2023, Arm Limited.
