System Partition Header File partition_<device>.h

The System Partition Header File partition_<device>.h contains the initial setup of the TrustZone hardware in an Armv8-M system. The function TZ_SAU_Setup is call from SystemInit and uses the settings in this file to initialize the Secure Attribute Unit (SAU) and define non-secure interrupts (register NVIC_INIT_ITNS). The following initializations are performed:

- SAU CTRL register settings provides settings for the SAU CTRL register.
- Configuration of the SAU Address Regions provides configuration of the SAU Address Regions.
- Configuration of Sleep and Exception behaviour provides device-specific deepsleep and exception settings.
- Configuration of Interrupt Target settings provides device-specific interrupt target settings.

# SAU CTRL register settings

#define | Value Range | Default | Description
--- | --- | --- | ---
SAU_INIT_CTRL | 0 .. 1 | 0 | Initialize SAU CTRL register or not 0: do not initialize SAU CTRL register 1: initialize SAU CTRL register
SAU_INIT_CTRL_ENABLE | 0 .. 1 | 0 | enable/disable the SAU 0: disable SAU 1: enable SAU
SAU_INIT_CTRL_ALLNS | 0 .. 1 | 0 | value for SAU_CTRL register bit ALLNS 0: all Memory is Secure 1: all Memory is Non-Secure

# 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
SAU_INIT_NSC<number> | 0 .. 1 | 0 | SAU region attribute 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_START1 0x00200000 /* start address of SAU region 1 */
#define SAU_INIT_END1 0x003FFFE0 /* end address of SAU region 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_END2 0x203FFFE0 /* end address of SAU region 2 */
#define SAU_INIT_NSC2 0
#define SAU_INIT_REGION3 1
#define SAU_INIT_START3 0x40000000 /* start address of SAU region 3 */
#define SAU_INIT_END3 0x40040000 /* end address of SAU region 3 */
#define SAU_INIT_NSC3 0
#define SAU_INIT_REGION4 0
#define SAU_INIT_START4 0x00000000 /* start address of SAU region 4 */
#define SAU_INIT_END4 0x00000000 /* end address of SAU region 4 */
#define SAU_INIT_NSC4 0
#define SAU_INIT_REGION5 0
#define SAU_INIT_START5 0x00000000 /* start address of SAU region 5 */
#define SAU_INIT_END5 0x00000000 /* end address of SAU region 5 */
#define SAU_INIT_NSC5 0
#define SAU_INIT_REGION6 0
#define SAU_INIT_START6 0x00000000 /* start address of SAU region 6 */
#define SAU_INIT_END6 0x00000000 /* end address of SAU region 6 */
#define SAU_INIT_NSC6 0
#define SAU_INIT_REGION7 0
#define SAU_INIT_START7 0x00000000 /* start address of SAU region 7 */
#define SAU_INIT_END7 0x00000000 /* end address of SAU region 7 */
#define SAU_INIT_NSC7 0

# Configuration of Sleep and Exception behaviour

#define | Value Range | Default | Description
--- | --- | --- | ---
CSR_INIT_DEEPSLEEPS | 0 .. 1 | 0 | value for SCB_CSR register bit DEEPSLEEPS 0: Deep Sleep can be enabled by Secure and Non-Secure state 1: Deep Sleep can be enabled by Secure state only
AIRCR_INIT_SYSRESETREQS | 0 .. 1 | 0 | value for SCB_AIRCR register bit SYSRESETREQS 0: System reset request accessible from Secure and Non-Secure state 1: System reset request accessible from Secure state only
AIRCR_INIT_PRIS | 0 .. 1 | 0 | value for SCB_AIRCR register bit PRIS 0: Priority of Non-Secure exceptions is Not altered 1: Priority of Non-Secure exceptions is Lowered to 0x80-0xFF
AIRCR_INIT_BFHFNMINS | 0 .. 1 | 0 | value for SCB_AIRCR register bit BFHFNMINS 0: BusFault, HardFault, and NMI target are Secure state 1: BusFault, HardFault, and NMI target are Non-Secure state

# 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
