3.2.2. Security Device Manager (SDM)

The following table indicates the support status of the components integrated into the Secure Device Manager. The table also indicates any component limitations the object created in the Intel® Simics® model of the FPGA component:

Table 18.  Support Status of the Components Integrated into the Secure Device Manager and Their Limitations
Component Supported? Support Status | Limitations | Objects
SDM Mailbox Yes
  • Limitations:
    • SDM mailbox is implemented as a closed box with mailbox functionality (not a fully functional model) supporting a set of commands for generating a response.
    • Registers for HPS to SDM Mailbox interaction are stubbed.
  • Object: system.board.fpga.soc_inst.hps_subsys.sdm.sdm_mailbox
QSPI Controller Yes
  • Limitations:
    • Legacy mode is unimplemented.
    • Write-protect is not supported.
    • QSPI boot is observed slow for JFFS2 file format (use UBIFs for fast boot).
    • DMA transfers are not supported.
    • Execute in Place (XIP) is not implemented.
  • Object: system.board.fpga.soc_inst.hps_subsys.sdm.qspi
