[PATCH v10 0/7] Introduction of a remoteproc tee to load signed firmware

[Arnaud Pouliquen]

Main updates from version V9[1]:

- Introduce release_fw remoteproc ops to avoid direct call of
  tee_rproc_release_fw() in remoteproc_core.c:
  - allow to remove link between remoteproc and remoteproc_tee
  - allow to build the remoteproc_tee as a module

Tested-on: commit 9852d85ec9d4 ("Linux 6.12-rc1")

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).
