The architecture test suite contains the Platform Abstraction Layer (PAL) which abstracts platform-specific information from the tests. You must implement and port the PAL interface functions to your target platform. Create and update the target configuration file to match the details of this target platform.
This document provides the porting steps and the list of PAL APIs.
You must populate your system configuration and provide it as an input to the test suite. The system configuration is captured in a single static input configuration file called target.cfg, available at api-tests/platform/targets/<platform_name>/.
An example input configuration file is as shown.
// UART device info
uart.num=1;
uart.0.base = 0x40004000;
uart.0.size = 0xFFF;
uart.0.intr_id = 0xFF;
uart.0.permission = TYPE_READ_WRITE;
// Watchdog device info
watchdog.num = 1;
watchdog.0.base = 0x40008000;
watchdog.0.size = 0xFFF;
watchdog.0.intr_id = 0xFF;
watchdog.0.permission = TYPE_READ_WRITE;
For details on the structure of the input, refer to val/common/val_target.h.
- Create a new directory in platform/targets/<platform_name>. For reference, see the existing platform tgt_dev_apis_tfm_an521 directory.
- Execute
cp -rf platform/targets/tgt_dev_apis_tfm_an521/ platform/targets/<platform_name>/. - Update platform/targets/<platform_name>/target.cfg with your platform details. Refer to val/common/val_target.h for structure details.
- Update platform/targets/<platform_name>/target.cmake appropriately to select the correct instances of PAL files for compilation.
- Refer to the List of PAL APIs section to view the list of PAL APIs that must be ported for your target platform. These API definitions are available in nspe/<suite_name>/pal_*_intf.c. These APIs are written for tgt_dev_apis_tfm_an521 platform. You can reuse the code if it works for your platform. Otherwise, you must port them for your platform-specific peripherals.
- Update Crypto configuration file nspe/crypto/pal_crypto_config.h to enable or disable Crypto features selectively for the Crypto test suite.
Note: The test suite requires access to the following peripherals:
- One UART to print Test NSPE messages
- One Watchdog timer to help recover from any fatal error conditions
- Non-volatile memory support to preserve test status over watchdog timer reset. Each byte of this region must be initialised to FF at power on reset.
Since the test suite is agnostic to various system targets, you must port the following PAL NSPE APIs before building the tests. Implement these functions for your target platform.
