* ARM Secure world bindings ARM CPUs with TrustZone support have two distinct address spaces, "Normal" and "Secure". Most devicetree consumers (including the Linux kernel) are not TrustZone aware and run entirely in either the Normal world or the Secure world. However some devicetree consumers are TrustZone aware and need to be able to determine whether devices are visible only in the Secure address space, only in the Normal address space, or visible in both. (One example of that situation would be a virtual machine which boots Secure firmware and wants to tell the firmware about the layout of the machine via devicetree.) The general principle of the naming scheme for Secure world bindings is that any property that needs a different value in the Secure world can be supported by prefixing the property name with "secure-". So for instance "secure-foo" would override "foo". For property names with a vendor prefix, the Secure variant of "vendor,foo" would be "vendor,secure-foo". If there is no "secure-" property then the Secure world value is the same as specified for the Normal world by the non-prefixed property. However, only the properties listed below may validly have "secure-" versions; this list will be enlarged on a case-by-case basis. Defining the bindings in this way means that a device tree which has been annotated to indicate the presence of Secure-only devices can still be processed unmodified by existing Non-secure software (and in particular by the kernel). Note that it is still valid for bindings intended for purely Secure world consumers (like kernels that run entirely in Secure) to simply describe the view of Secure world using the standard bindings. These secure- bindings only need to be used where both the Secure and Normal world views need to be described in a single device tree. Valid Secure world properties ----------------------------- - secure-status : specifies whether the device is present and usable in the secure world. The combination of this with "status" allows the various possible combinations of device visibility to be specified. If "secure-status" is not specified it defaults to the same value as "status"; if "status" is not specified either then both default to "okay". This means the following combinations are possible: /* Neither specified: default to visible in both S and NS */ secure-status = "okay"; /* visible in both */ status = "okay"; /* visible in both */ status = "okay"; secure-status = "okay"; /* visible in both */ secure-status = "disabled"; /* NS-only */ status = "okay"; secure-status = "disabled"; /* NS-only */ status = "disabled"; secure-status = "okay"; /* S-only */ status = "disabled"; /* disabled in both */ status = "disabled"; secure-status = "disabled"; /* disabled in both */ The secure-chosen node ---------------------- Similar to the /chosen node which serves as a place for passing data between firmware and the operating system, the /secure-chosen node may be used to pass data to the Secure OS. Only the properties defined below may appear in the /secure-chosen node. - stdout-path : specifies the device to be used by the Secure OS for its console output. The syntax is the same as for /chosen/stdout-path. If the /secure-chosen node exists but the stdout-path property is not present, the Secure OS should not perform any console output. If /secure-chosen does not exist, the Secure OS should use the value of /chosen/stdout-path instead (that is, use the same device as the Normal world OS).
