Commit Message

This change allows one to build the TF-A (Trusted Firmware A) for
32bit Armv7 and Armv8 platforms which arm-trusted-firmware supports
since release v1.5.

BR2_aarch64 is changed to BR2_ARM_CPU_ARMV8A as the later complemented
by BR2_ARM_CPU_ARMV7A better represents to architectures that can
support Arm Trusted Firmware A.

When BR2_arm is enabled, TF-A is built in Aarch32 mode.
Selection between Armv8-A (default) and Armv7-A (ARM_ARCH_MAJOR=7) is
expected from BR2_TARGET_ARM_TRUSTED_FIRMWARE_ADDITIONAL_VARIABLES.

Hello Ricardo,

Sorry for pollution through this series. I think you may be interested
only with the last commit of it:

It seems a bit annoying to require passing ARM_ARCH_MAJOR=7 in those
additional variable. Why don't we do it automatically in
arm-trusted-firmware.mk. We have all the knowledge required, no?

Can we do:

ifeq ($(BR2_arm),y)
ARM_TRUSTED_FIRMWARE_MAKE_OPTS += ARCH=aarch32 ARM_ARCH_MAJOR=7
else
ARM_TRUSTED_FIRMWARE_MAKE_OPTS += ARCH=aarch64 ARM_ARCH_MAJOR=8
endif

for example ?

Well... I guess yes. Until there comes Aarch32 Armv8-A platforms.
So, yes, you're right. Your change will relax ARM_ARCH_MAJOR from
..._ADDITIONAL_VARIABLES.

Hello Thomas and all,

Below an alternate proposal

Below will better reflect the configuration:

ifeq ($(BR2_ARM_CPU_ARMV7A),y)
ARM_TRUSTED_FIRMWARE_MAKE_OPTS += ARM_ARCH_MAJOR=7
else ifeq ($(BR2_ARM_CPU_ARMV8A),y)
ARM_TRUSTED_FIRMWARE_MAKE_OPTS += ARM_ARCH_MAJOR=8
endif

ifeq ($(BR2_arm),y)
ARM_TRUSTED_FIRMWARE_MAKE_OPTS += ARCH=aarch32
else ifeq ($(BR2_aarch64),y)
ARM_TRUSTED_FIRMWARE_MAKE_OPTS += ARCH=aarch64
endif

I will push a PATCH v3 with updates in the later commits of the series.
Thanks.

regards,
etienne
