The OpenTitan Reference Firmware Images together make up the Opentitan Reference Firmware Stack. Different images are used for different boot stages.
The Reference Firmware Images are, in boot order:
- The ROM (in
sw/device/silicon_creator/rom
), executed at chip reset; - The ROM_EXT (in
sw/device/silicon_creator/rom_ext
), the second stage Silicon Creator code, executed from flash; and
There are also some other standalone firmware images in the repository, which are only used for testing.
-
sw/device/tests
contains several categories of chip-level tests, including smoke, IP integration, and system-level (use case) tests. -
sw/vendor/eembc_coremark
contains infrastructure for running the CoreMark benchmark suite on the OpenTitan device. -
sw/device/riscv_compliance_support
contains infrastructure so we can run the RISC-V Compliance tests on the OpenTitan core. -
sw/device/sca
contains on-device software used for Side-Channel Analysis. -
sw/device/prebuilt
contains pre-built Tock images, which may not be up-to-date. -
sw/device/examples
contains example images, including a simple Hello World.
There are also prototype versions of some of the boot stages, now only used for testing:
sw/device/lib/testing/test_rom
is a previous, testing-only version of the ROM.sw/device/exts
contains software for our prototype second boot stage images.
