The TrustZone setup: partition_<device>.h header file contains the initial setup of the TrustZone hardware in an Armv8-M system.

This file implements the function TZ_SAU_Setup that is call from SystemInit. It uses settings in these files:

partition_<device>.h that defines the initial system configuration and during SystemInit in Secure state.
partition_gen.h that contains SAU region and interrupt target assignments. This file may be generated using CMSIS-Zone.

Note: partition_gen.h is optional and can be generated using CMSIS-Zone. In previous versions of CMSIS-Core(M) this settings were part of partition_<device>.h.

The partition_<device>.h file contains the following configuration settings for:

SAU CTRL register settings provides settings for the SAU CTRL register.
Configuration of Sleep and Exception behaviour provides device-specific deep-sleep and exception settings.
Configuration of Floating Point Unit defines the usage of the Floating Point Unit in secure and non-secure state.

The partition_<device>.h file includes the partition_gen.h file with configuration settings for:

Configuration of the SAU Address Regions provides configuration of the SAU Address Regions.
Configuration of Interrupt Target settings provides device-specific interrupt target settings.

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.

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
