:name: TF-M PSA crypto
Use the PSA Crypto API for cryptography and device certificate signing requests.
Overview
********
This TF-M integration example demonstrates how to use the PSA crypto API in
Zephyr for cryptography and device certificate signing request. In addition,
this example also demonstrates certain TF-M features that are covered as part
of the RTOS vendor requirements for a `PSA Certified Level 1`_ product, such
as secure storage for config data, initial attestation for device
verification.
Trusted Firmware (TF-M) Platform Security Architecture (PSA) APIs
are used for the secure processing environment, with Zephyr running in the
non-secure processing environment.
It uses **IPC Mode** for communication, where an IPC mechanism is inserted to
handle secure TF-M API calls and responses.
The sample prints test info to the console either as a single-thread or
multi-thread application.

Key Files
*********
``psa_crypto.c``
================
Demonstrates hash, sign/verify workflow:
- Generate/import a persistent key: secp256r1 (usage: ecdsa-with-SHA256)
- Display the public key based on the private key data above
- Calculate the SHA256 hash of a payload
- Sign the hash with the persistent key
- Verify the signature using the public key
- Destroy the key
Also demonstrates device certificate signing request (CSR) workflow:
- Generate/import a persistent key: secp256r1 (usage: ecdsa-with-SHA256)
- Set subject name in device CSR
- Generate device CSR in PEM format
- Encode device CSR as JSON
Importing/generating the persistent key is based on config option
``PSA_IMPORT_KEY``. When ``PSA_IMPORT_KEY`` is enabled,
the key data can be static if ``PRIVATE_KEY_STATIC`` is set or key data
is generated using ``psa_generate_random`` if ``PRIVATE_KEY_RANDOM``
is set.
``psa_attestation.c``
=====================
Demonstrates how to request an initial attestation token (IAT) from the TF-M
secure processing environment (SPE).
Building and Running
********************
This project outputs startup status and info to the console. It can be built and
executed on an ARM Cortex M33 target board or QEMU.
This sample will only build on a Linux or macOS development system
(not Windows), and has been tested on the following setups:
- macOS Mojave using QEMU 4.2.0 with gcc-arm-none-eabi-7-2018-q2-update
- macOS Mojave with gcc-arm-none-eabi-7-2018-q2-update
- Ubuntu 18.04 using Zephyr SDK 0.11.2
TF-M BL2 logs
=============
Add the following to ``prj.conf`` to see the logs from TF-M BL2:
.. code-block:: cfg
CONFIG_TFM_BL2=y
CONFIG_TFM_CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE_DEBUG=y
On MPS2+ AN521:
===============
1. Build Zephyr with a non-secure configuration
(``-DBOARD=mps2/an521/cpu0/ns``).
Using ``west``
.. code-block:: bash
cd <ZEPHYR_ROOT>
west build -p -b mps2/an521/cpu0/ns samples/tfm_integration/psa_crypto
Using ``cmake`` and ``ninja``
.. code-block:: bash
cd <ZEPHYR_ROOT>/samples/tfm_integration/psa_crypto/
rm -rf build
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -GNinja -DBOARD=mps2/an521/cpu0/ns ..
ninja
Using ``cmake`` and ``make``
.. code-block:: bash
cd <ZEPHYR_ROOT>/samples/tfm_integration/psa_crypto/
rm -rf build
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DBOARD=mps2/an521/cpu0/ns ..
make
2. Copy application binary files (mcuboot.bin and tfm_sign.bin) to
``<MPS2 device name>/SOFTWARE/``.
3. Edit (e.g., with vim) the ``<MPS2 device name>/MB/HBI0263C/AN521/images.txt``
file, and update it as shown below:
.. code-block:: bash
TITLE: Versatile Express Images Configuration File
[IMAGES]
TOTALIMAGES: 2 ;Number of Images (Max: 32)
IMAGE0ADDRESS: 0x10000000
IMAGE0FILE: \SOFTWARE\mcuboot.bin ; BL2 bootloader
IMAGE1ADDRESS: 0x10080000
IMAGE1FILE: \SOFTWARE\tfm_sign.bin ; TF-M with application binary blob
4. Save the file, exit the editor, and reset the MPS2+ board.
On QEMU:
========
Build Zephyr with a non-secure configuration (``-DBOARD=mps2/an521/cpu0/ns``)
and run it in qemu via the ``run`` command.
Using ``west``
.. code-block:: bash
cd <ZEPHYR_ROOT>
west build -p -b mps2/an521/cpu0/ns samples/tfm_integration/psa_crypto -t run
Using ``cmake`` and ``ninja``
.. code-block:: bash
cd <ZEPHYR_ROOT>/samples/tfm_integration/psa_crypto/
rm -rf build
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -GNinja -DBOARD=mps2/an521/cpu0/ns ..
ninja run
Using ``cmake`` and ``make``
.. code-block:: bash
cd <ZEPHYR_ROOT>/samples/tfm_integration/psa_crypto/
rm -rf build
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DBOARD=mps2/an521/cpu0/ns ..
make run
On LPCxpresso55S69:
======================
Build Zephyr with a non-secure configuration:
.. code-block:: bash
$ west build -p -b lpcxpresso55s69_ns samples/tfm_integration/psa_crypto/ --
Make sure your board is set up with :ref:`lpclink2-jlink-onboard-debug-probe`,
since this isn't the debug interface boards ship with from the factory;
Next we need to manually flash the resulting image (``tfm_merged.bin``) with a
J-Link as follows:
.. code-block:: console
JLinkExe -device lpc55s69 -if swd -speed 2000 -autoconnect 1
J-Link>r
J-Link>erase
J-Link>loadfile build/tfm_merged.bin
Resetting the board and erasing it will unlock the board, this is useful in case
it's in an unknown state and can't be flashed.
We need to reset the board manually after flashing the image to run this code.
On nRF5340 and nRF9160:
=======================
Build Zephyr with a non-secure configuration
(``-DBOARD=nrf5340dk/nrf5340/cpuapp/ns`` or ``-DBOARD=nrf9160dk/nrf9160/ns``).
Example, for nRF9160, using ``cmake`` and ``ninja``
.. code-block:: bash
cd <ZEPHYR_ROOT>/samples/tfm_integration/psa_crypto/
rm -rf build
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -GNinja -DBOARD=nrf9160dk/nrf9160/ns ..
If building with BL2 (MCUboot bootloader) enabled, manually flash
the MCUboot bootloader image binary (``bl2.hex``).
Example, using ``nrfjprog`` on nRF9160:
.. code-block:: bash
nrfjprog -f NRF91 --program tfm/bin/bl2.hex --sectorerase
Finally, flash the concatenated TF-M + Zephyr binary.
Example, for nRF9160, using ``cmake`` and ``ninja``
.. code-block:: bash
ninja flash
On BL5340:
==========
Build Zephyr with a non-secure configuration
(``-DBOARD=bl5340_dvk/nrf5340/cpuapp/ns``).
Example using ``cmake`` and ``ninja``
.. code-block:: bash
cd <ZEPHYR_ROOT>/samples/tfm_integration/psa_crypto/
rm -rf build
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -GNinja -DBOARD=bl5340_dvk/nrf5340/cpuapp/ns ..
Flash the concatenated TF-M + Zephyr binary.
Example using ``west``
.. code-block:: bash
west flash --hex-file tfm_merged.hex
