TrustZone setup: partition_<device>.h

The TrustZone setup: partition_<device>.h header file contains the initial setup of the TrustZone hardware in an Armv8-M system.

This file implements the function TZ_SAU_Setup that is call from SystemInit. It uses settings in these files:

  • partition_<device>.h that defines the initial system configuration and during SystemInit in Secure state.
  • partition_gen.h that contains SAU region and interrupt target assignments. This file may be generated using CMSIS-Zone.
Note
partition_gen.h is optional and can be generated using CMSIS-Zone. In previous versions of CMSIS-Core(M) this settings were part of partition_<device>.h.

 

The partition_<device>.h file contains the following configuration settings for:

The partition_<device>.h file includes the partition_gen.h file with configuration settings for:

The partition_gen.h header file can be generated using CMSIS-Zone.

The partition_<device>.h file includes the partition_gen.h file with configuration settings for:

Note
In previous versions of CMSIS-Core(M) the above settings were part of partition_<device>.h

Configuration of the SAU Address Regions

#define Value Range Default Description
SAU_REGIONS_MAX 0 .. tbd 8 maximum number of SAU regions
SAU_INIT_REGION<number> 0 .. 1 0 initialize SAU region or not
  • 0: do not initialize SAU region
  • 1: initialize SAU region
SAU_INIT_START<number> 0x00000000 .. 0xFFFFFFE0
[in steps of 32]
0x00000000 region start address
SAU_INIT_END<number> 0x00000000 .. 0xFFFFFFE0
[in steps of 32]
0x00000000 region start address

  • 0: Non-Secure
  • 1: Secure, Non-Secure callable

The range of <number> is from 0 .. SAU_REGIONS_MAX. A set of these macros must exist for each <number>.

The following example shows a set of SAU region macros.

#define SAU_REGIONS_MAX 8 /* Max. number of SAU regions */
#define SAU_INIT_REGION0 1
#define SAU_INIT_START0 0x00000000 /* start address of SAU region 0 */
#define SAU_INIT_END0 0x001FFFE0 /* end address of SAU region 0 */
#define SAU_INIT_NSC0 1
#define SAU_INIT_REGION1 1

#define SAU_INIT_NSC1 0
#define SAU_INIT_REGION2 1
#define SAU_INIT_START2 0x20200000 /* start address of SAU region 2 */

#define SAU_INIT_NSC6 0
#define SAU_INIT_REGION7 0
#define SAU_INIT_START7 0x00000000 /* start address of SAU region 7 */

Configuration of Interrupt Target settings

Each interrupt has a configuration bit that defines the execution in Secure or Non-secure state. The Non-Secure interrupts have a separate vector table. Refer to Programmers Model with TrustZone for more information.

#define Value Range Default Description
NVIC_INIT_ITNS<number> 0x00000000 .. 0xFFFFFFFF
[each bit represents an interrupt]
0x00000000 Interrupt vector target
  • 0: Secure state
  • 1: Non-Secure state

The range of <number> is 0 .. (<number of external interrupts> + 31) / 32.

The following example shows the configuration for a maximum of 64 external interrupts.

#define NVIC_INIT_ITNS0 0x0000122B
#define NVIC_INIT_ITNS1 0x0000003A
