28. Xilinx Versal

Trusted Firmware-A implements the EL3 firmware layer for Xilinx Versal. The platform only uses the runtime part of TF-A as Xilinx Versal already has a BootROM (BL1) and PMC FW (BL2).

BL31 is TF-A. BL32 is an optional Secure Payload. BL33 is the non-secure world software (U-Boot, Linux etc).

To build: `bash make RESET_TO_BL31=1 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-elf- PLAT=versal bl31 `

To build ATF for different platform (for now its just versal virtual “versal_virt”) `bash make RESET_TO_BL31=1 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-elf- PLAT=versal VERSAL_PLATFORM=versal_virt bl31 `
