A quick reference table is included in the
:ref:`docs/getting_started/tfm_sw_requirement:Tool & Dependency overview` section
of this document.

****************************
Supported build environments
****************************

TF-M officially supports a limited set of build environments and setups. In
this context, official support means that the environments listed below
are actively used by team members and active developers, hence users should
be able to recreate the same configurations by following the instructions
described below. In case of problems, the TF-M team provides support
only for these environments, but building in other environments can still be
possible.

The following environments are supported:

    - Ubuntu 18.04 x64
    - Windows 10 x64

***********
C compilers
***********

To compile TF-M code, at least one of the supported compiler toolchains have to
be available in the build environment. The currently supported compiler
versions are:

    - Arm Compiler v6.10.1+
    - GNU Arm compiler v7.3.1+
    - IAR Arm compiler v8.42.x, v8.50.x

.. Note::
    - The Arm compilers above are provided via Keil uVision |KEIL_VERSION|
      or greater and Arm Development Studio
      |DEV_STUDIO_VERSION| or greater, or they can be downloaded as standalone
      packages from
      `here <https://developer.arm.com/products/software-development-tools/compilers/arm-compiler/downloads/version-6>`__.

    - The GNU Arm compiler can be downloaded from
      `here <https://developer.arm.com/open-source/gnu-toolchain/gnu-rm/downloads>`__.
      On the page select *GNU Arm Embedded Toolchain: 7-2018-q2-update* or an
      above version.

    - GNU Arm compiler version *10-2020-q4-major* has an issue in CMSE support.
      The bug is reported in `here <https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=99157>`__.
      Select other GNU Arm compiler versions instead.

    - The IAR Arm compilers above are provided via IAR Embedded Workbench (Windows) or
      IAR build tools for linux.
      For information, see
      `here <https://www.iar.com/iar-embedded-workbench/#!?architecture=Arm>`__ or
      `here <https://www.iar.com/iar-embedded-workbench/build-tools-for-linux/>`__.

*****
CMake
*****

The build-system is CMake based and supports the version 3.15 or higher.

    - Please use the latest build version available.
    - Recent versions of CMake can be downloaded from
      https://cmake.org/download/, and older releases are available from
      https://cmake.org/files.

CMake handles all external dependencies, but if you wish to alter this
behaviour, see :ref:`docs/technical_references/instructions/tfm_build_instruction:Manual
dependency management`

********
GNU make
********

TF-M project builds using the "Unix Makefiles" generator of CMake
and thus GNU make is needed for the build.

    - On Linux please use the version available in your distribution.
    - On Windows, GNU make v3.81 or higher shall work fine.

CMake generators other than "Unix Makefiles" may work too, but are not
officially supported. You may have a good luck with Ninja.

********************************************
Tools for configuring and programming boards
********************************************

Please follow a board secific documentation for building and programming
tools.

**************
Typical setups
**************

This section lists steps to set-up TF-M build environment under Linux and Windows.
Please also check the `Exceptions and special cases`_  chapter for any special
requirements depending on the tools you are using.

The build system can generate two documents: The Reference Manual and the
User Guide. Both documents can be generated in HTML and PDF format.

.. Note::
    Support for document generation in the build environment is not mandatory.
    Missing document generation tools will not block building the
    TF-M firmware.

To import CMake to your PATH variable:

.. code-block:: bash

    set PATH=<CMake_Path>\bin;$PATH

To import PLATUML:

.. code-block:: bash

    set PLANTUML_JAR_PATH=<plantuml_Path>\plantuml.jar

To set PATH for ARMDS:

.. code-block:: bash

    set PATH=$PATH;<ARM_DS_PATH>\sw\java\bin

There are several configurations depending on a toolset you are using.
The typical cases are listed below.

Armclang + Arm DS

.. code-block:: bash

    set PATH=<ARM_DS_PATH>\sw\ARMCompiler6.13\bin;$PATH
    set ARM_PRODUCT_PATH=<ARM_DS_PATH>\sw\mappings
    set ARM_TOOL_VARIANT=ult
    set ARMLMD_LICENSE_FILE=<LICENSE_FILE_PATH>

Armclang + Keil MDK Arm

.. code-block:: bash

    set PATH=<uVision path>\ARM\ARMCLANG\bin;$PATH

GNU Arm

.. code-block:: bash

    set PATH=<GNU Arm path>\bin;$PATH

****************************
Exceptions and special cases
****************************

ArmClang
========
    - Arm compiler specific environment variable may need updating based on
      specific products and licenses as explained in
      `product-and-toolkit-configuration <https://developer.arm.com/products/software-development-tools/license-management/resources/product-and-toolkit-configuration>`__.

MikTeX
======
    - When building the documentation the first time, MikTeX might prompt for
      installing missing LaTeX components. Please allow the MikTeX package
      manager to set-up these.
