Description : "secure world" software for Allwinner SoCs
The "secure world" on arm64 machines is a special level of CPU
privilege that is hidden from the normal OS, and has complete
control over the system. It provides both initialization during
early boot stages (before u-boot or EFI) and system monitor
functionality once the machine is booted up. This is an equivalent
of Intel ME on x86.
.
This package is a fork of the ATF specific to 64-bit Allwinner
devices, such as Pine64 and Pinebook.
Note that vanilla ATF is ITP #881620; the Allwinner fork might or might
not be incorporated there in the future.
