Runtime Instrumentation Testing - N1SDP
=======================================
For this test we used the N1 System Development Platform (`N1SDP`_), which
contains an SoC consisting of two dual-core Arm N1 clusters.
The following source trees and binaries were used:
- TF-A [`v2.9-rc0-16-g666aec401`_]
- TFTF [`v2.9-rc0`_]
- SCP/MCP `Prebuilt Images`_
Please see the Runtime Instrumentation :ref:`Testing Methodology
<Runtime Instrumentation Methodology>` page for more details.
Procedure
---------
#. Build TFTF with runtime instrumentation enabled:
.. code:: shell
make CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-elf- PLAT=n1sdp \
TESTS=runtime-instrumentation all
#. Build TF-A with the following build options:
.. code:: shell
make CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-elf- PLAT=n1sdp \
ENABLE_RUNTIME_INSTRUMENTATION=1 fiptool all
#. Fetch the SCP firmware images:
.. code:: shell
curl --fail --connect-timeout 5 --retry 5 \
-sLS -o build/n1sdp/release/scp_rom.bin \
https://downloads.trustedfirmware.org/tf-a/css_scp_2.12.0/n1sdp/release/n1sdp-bl1.bin
curl --fail --connect-timeout 5 \
--retry 5 -sLS -o build/n1sdp/release/scp_ram.bin \
https://downloads.trustedfirmware.org/tf-a/css_scp_2.12.0/n1sdp/release/n1sdp-bl2.bin
#. Fetch the MCP firmware images:
.. code:: shell
curl --fail --connect-timeout 5 --retry 5 \
-sLS -o build/n1sdp/release/mcp_rom.bin \
https://downloads.trustedfirmware.org/tf-a/css_scp_2.12.0/n1sdp/release/n1sdp-mcp-bl1.bin
curl --fail --connect-timeout 5 --retry 5 \
-sLS -o build/n1sdp/release/mcp_ram.bin \
https://downloads.trustedfirmware.org/tf-a/css_scp_2.12.0/n1sdp/release/n1sdp-mcp-bl2.bin
#. Using the fiptool, create a new FIP package and append the SCP ram image onto
it.
.. code:: shell
./tools/fiptool/fiptool create --blob \
uuid=cfacc2c4-15e8-4668-82be-430a38fad705,file=build/n1sdp/release/bl1.bin \
--scp-fw build/n1sdp/release/scp_ram.bin build/n1sdp/release/scp_fw.bin
#. Append the MCP image to the FIP.
.. code:: shell
./tools/fiptool/fiptool create \
--blob uuid=54464222-a4cf-4bf8-b1b6-cee7dade539e,file=build/n1sdp/release/mcp_ram.bin \
build/n1sdp/release/mcp_fw.bin
#. Then, add TFTF as the Non-Secure workload in the FIP image:
.. code:: shell
make CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-elf- PLAT=n1sdp \
ENABLE_RUNTIME_INSTRUMENTATION=1 SCP_BL2=/dev/null \
BL33=<path/to/tftf.bin> fip
#. Load the following images onto the development board: ``fip.bin``,
``scp_rom.bin``, ``scp_ram.bin``, ``mcp_rom.bin``, and ``mcp_ram.bin``.
.. note::
These instructions presume you have a complete firmware stack. The N1SDP
`user guide`_ provides a detailed explanation on how to get setup from
scratch.
