The ATF for imx8 is quite convoluted requiring fixed memory locations for images and device trees. The ATF itself supports transferring parameters Using 4 unsigned long arguments. These are unfortunately zeroed out by a misconfiguration for IMX8: RESET_TO_BL31 := 1 and not at the same time setting RESET_TO_BL31_WITH_PARAMS := 1 As demoed below this can be made to work. ———><—— Uart initialized Run level 3 Init power Init DDR Handover to ATF imx8mp_load_and_start_image_via_tfa: Expect OPTEE at 0xbe000000 CH e2a7175151fe3e842116990e62c864334e1bb030ca146b749d8e6b0c02481357 IH e2a7175151fe3e842116990e62c864334e1bb030ca146b749d8e6b0c02481357 CAAM early init successful imx8m_atf_start_bl31: Callout BL31 with 1, 2, 3, 4 NOTICE: Do not release JR0 to NS as it can be used by HAB INFO: bl31_early_platform_setup2: args are 0x00000001, 0x00000002, 0x00000003, 0x00000004 NOTICE: BL31: v2.8(debug):lf-6.1.36-2.1.0-0-g1a3beeab6-dirty NOTICE: BL31: Built : 15:49:38, Oct 18 2023 ——><—— The "best" approach is likely to patch ATFs imx8mX_bl31_setup.c replacing preprocessor values with values handed over from Barebox.
