For most secure usecases, enforces
XPPU and XMPU protection scheme allows only a set of "firmware masters" to access system
resources directly. Protections are enforced in the hardware by configuring the
XPPUs/XMPUs appropriately. If a non-firmware master requires an access to such protected
address space, then it should request PLM to perform the access on behalf of it. A
direct access from any non-firmware master to this protected address space will be
blocked by hardware. Such non-firmware masters can use EEMI IOCTL APIs (IOCTL_READ_REG
and IOCTL_MASK_WRITE_REG
) to perform desired accesses which ensures that only
firmware is directly accessing these resources and access is kept "secure". To use this
feature, define an access policy for one or more apertures per resource through SET_NODE_ACCESS
command in the PMC data CDO.
To read the secure/protected registers via IOCTL (for example, SYSMON registers), set the Node Access, add this as part of PMC CDO:
This command allows you to define address apertures accessible using EEMI IOCTL command. This unit describes one or more apertures associated with a node and defines different “access permissions” for each such aperture. This information is used by the firmware to build a "Node Access Table" which is used to evaluate client read/write access requests. A "Node Access Table" will contain several entries, where each entry will contain:
- Node ID
- Base Address
- Total Size
- List of:
- <offset1, size1, access-permission1>,
- <offset2, size2, access-permission2>,
