-Building the software stack
----------------------------
-Create a new folder that will be your workspace and will henceforth be referred
-to as ``<_workspace>`` in these instructions. To create the folder, run:
+  Building binaries natively on Windows and AArch64 Linux is not supported.
+  
+  Use an AMD64 Linux based development machine to build the software stack and transfer the binaries to run the software stack on an FVP in Windows or AArch64 Linux
+  if required.
 
-::
 
-    mkdir <_workspace>
-    cd <_workspace>
+#. Create a new folder that will be your workspace.
 
-Corstone-1000 software is based on the Yocto Project which uses kas and bitbake
-commands to build the stack. kas version 4 is required. To install kas, run:
+    .. code-block:: console
 
-::
+        mkdir $WORKSPACE
+        cd $WORKSPACE
 
-    pip3 install kas
+#. Install kas version 4.4 with ``sudo`` rights.
 
-If 'kas' command is not found in command-line, please make sure the user installation directories are visible on $PATH. If you have sudo rights, try 'sudo pip3 install kas'.
+    .. code-block:: console
 
-In the top directory of the workspace ``<_workspace>``, run:
+        sudo pip3 install kas==4.4
 
-::
+    Ensure the kas installation directory is visible on the ``$PATH`` environment variable.
 
-    git clone https://git.yoctoproject.org/git/meta-arm -b CORSTONE1000-2024.06

+            export ARM_FVP_EULA_ACCEPT="True"
 
-The initial clean build will be lengthy, given that all host utilities are to
-be built as well as the target images. This includes host executables (python,
-cmake, etc.) and the required toolchain(s).
 
-Once the build is successful, all output binaries will be placed in the following folders:
- - ``<_workspace>/build/tmp/deploy/images/corstone1000-fvp/`` folder for FVP build;
- - ``<_workspace>/build/tmp/deploy/images/corstone1000-mps3/`` folder for FPGA build.

-Testing steps
-*************
+    All the tests below assume you have already built the software stack at least once
+    following the instructions `here <building-the-software-stack_>`__.
 
-**NOTE**: Running the SystemReady-IR tests described below requires the user to
-work with USB sticks. In our testing, not all USB stick models work well with
-MPS3 FPGA. Here are the USB sticks models that are stable in our test
-environment.

- - SanDisk Ultra 32GB Dual USB Flash Drive USB M3.0
- - SanDisk Ultra 16GB Dual USB Flash Drive USB M3.0
+.. _clean-secure-flash:
 
-**NOTE**:
-Before running each of the tests in this chapter, the user should follow the
-steps described in following section "Clean Secure Flash Before Testing" to
-erase the SecureEnclave flash cleanly and prepare a clean board environment for
-the testing.
+Clean Secure Flash
+------------------
 
-Prepare EFI System Partition
-===========================================================
-Corstone-1000 FVP and FPGA do not have enough on-chip nonvolatile memory to host
-an EFI System Partition (ESP). Thus, Corstone-1000 uses mass storage device for
-ESP. The instructions below should be followed for both FVP and FPGA before
-running the ACS tests.
+.. important::
 
-**Common to FVP and FPGA:**
+    The MPS3 secure flash needs to be cleared before running tests.
+    This is to erase the flash cleanly and prepare a clean board environment for testing.
 
-::
 
-  kas build meta-arm/kas/corstone1000-{mps3,fvp}.yml:meta-arm/ci/debug.yml --target corstone1000-esp-image
+#. Clone the `systemready-patch` repository to your $WORKSPACE.
 
-Once the build is successful ``corstone1000-esp-image-corstone1000-{mps3,fvp}.wic`` will be available in either:
- - ``<_workspace>/build/tmp/deploy/images/corstone1000-fvp/`` folder for FVP build;
- - ``<_workspace>/build/tmp/deploy/images/corstone1000-mps3/`` folder for FPGA build.
+    .. code-block:: console
 
-**Using ESP in FPGA:**
+        cd $WORKSPACE
+        git clone https://git.gitlab.arm.com/arm-reference-solutions/systemready-patch.git -b CORSTONE1000-2024.11
 
-Once the ESP is created, it needs to be flashed to a second USB drive different than ACS image.
-This can be done with the development machine. In the given example here
-we assume the USB device is ``/dev/sdb`` (the user should use ``lsblk`` command to
-confirm). Be cautious here and don't confuse your host machine own hard drive with the
-USB drive. Run the following commands to prepare the ACS image in USB stick:
+#. Copy the secure flash cleaning Git patch file to your copy of `meta-arm`.
 
-::
+    .. code-block:: console
 
-   sudo dd if=corstone1000-esp-image-corstone1000-mps3.wic of=/dev/sdb iflag=direct oflag=direct status=progress bs=512; sync;
+        cp -f systemready-patch/embedded-a/corstone1000/erase_flash/0001-embedded-a-corstone1000-clean-secure-flash.patch meta-arm
 
-Now you can plug this USB stick to the board together with ACS test USB stick.
+#. Apply the Git patch to `meta-arm`.
 
-**Using ESP in FVP:**
+    .. code-block:: console
 
-The ESP disk image once created will be used automatically in the Corstone-1000 FVP as the 2nd MMC card image. It will be used when the SystemReady-IR tests will be performed on the FVP in the later section.
+        cd meta-arm
+        git apply 0001-embedded-a-corstone1000-clean-secure-flash.patch
 
+#. Rebuild the software stack.
 
-Clean Secure Flash Before Testing (applicable to FPGA only)
-===========================================================
+    .. code-block:: console
 
-To prepare a clean board environment with clean secure flash for the testing,
-the user should prepare an image that erases the secure flash cleanly during
-boot. Run following commands to build such image.
+        cd $WORKSPACE
+        kas shell meta-arm/kas/corstone1000-mps3.yml:meta-arm/ci/debug.yml
+        bitbake -c cleansstate trusted-firmware-m corstone1000-flash-firmware-image
+        bitbake -c build corstone1000-flash-firmware-image
 
-::
+#. Replace the ``bl1.bin`` file on the SD card with ``$WORKSPACE/build/tmp/deploy/images/corstone1000-mps3/bl1.bin``.
 
-  cd <_workspace>
-  git clone https://git.yoctoproject.org/git/meta-arm -b CORSTONE1000-2024.06
-  git clone https://git.gitlab.arm.com/arm-reference-solutions/systemready-patch.git -b CORSTONE1000-2024.06
-  cp -f systemready-patch/embedded-a/corstone1000/erase_flash/0001-embedded-a-corstone1000-clean-secure-flash.patch meta-arm
-  cd meta-arm
-  git apply 0001-embedded-a-corstone1000-clean-secure-flash.patch
-  cd ..
-  kas build meta-arm/kas/corstone1000-mps3.yml:meta-arm/ci/debug.yml
+#. Reboot the board to completely erase the secure flash.
 
-Replace the bl1.bin and cs1000.bin files on the SD card with following files:
-  - The ROM firmware: <_workspace>/build/tmp/deploy/images/corstone1000-mps3/bl1.bin
-  - The flash image: <_workspace>/build/tmp/deploy/images/corstone1000-mps3/corstone1000-flash-firmware-image-corstone1000-mps3.wic
+    The following message log from TrustedFirmware-M should be displayed on the Secure Enclave terminal (``ttyUSB1``):
 
-Now reboot the board. This step erases the Corstone-1000 SecureEnclave flash
-completely, the user should expect following message from TF-M log (can be seen
-in ttyUSB1):
+    .. code-block:: console
 
-::
+        !!!SECURE FLASH HAS BEEN CLEANED!!!
+        NOW YOU CAN FLASH THE ACTUAL CORSTONE1000 IMAGE
+        PLEASE REMOVE THE LATEST ERASE SECURE FLASH PATCH AND BUILD THE IMAGE AGAIN
 
-  !!!SECURE FLASH HAS BEEN CLEANED!!!
-  NOW YOU CAN FLASH THE ACTUAL CORSTONE1000 IMAGE
-  PLEASE REMOVE THE LATEST ERASE SECURE FLASH PATCH AND BUILD THE IMAGE AGAIN
+#. Whilst still in the ``kas`` shell, revert the changes the patch introduced by running the following commands:
 
-Then the user should follow "Building the software stack" to build a clean
-software stack and flash the FPGA as normal. And continue the testing.
+    .. code-block:: console
 
-Run SystemReady-IR ACS tests
-============================

+        git reset --hard
+        cd ..
+        bitbake -c cleansstate trusted-firmware-m corstone1000-flash-firmware-image
+        exit
+
+#. Follow the `instructions <building-the-software-stack_>`__ to build a clean software stack and flash the MPS3 with it.
+
+You can proceed with the test instructions in the following section after having done all the above.
+
+SystemReady-IR
+--------------
+
+.. important::
+    Running the SystemReady-IR tests described below requires USB drives.
+    In our testing, not all USB drive models worked well with the MPS3.

-Manual capsule update and ESRT checks
--------------------------------------
+Capsule Update
+--------------
 
-The following section describes running manual capsule updates by going through
-a negative and positive test. Two capsules are needed to perform the positive
-and negative updates. The steps also show how to use the EFI System Resource Table
-(ESRT) to retrieve the installed capsule details.
+The following section describes the steps to update the firmware using Capsule Update
+as the Corstone-1000 supports UEFI.
 
-In the positive test, a valid capsule is used and the platform boots correctly
-until the Linux prompt after the update. In the negative test, an outdated
-capsule is used that has a smaller version number. This capsule gets rejected
-because of being outdated and the previous firmware will be used instead.
+The firmware update process is tested with an invalid capsule (negative capsule update test)
+and with a valid capsule (positive capsule update test) to validate the robustness and
+error-handling capabilities of the firmware update mechanism.
 
+During the positive capsule update test, the Corstone-1000 is given a valid capsule, which it successfully applies, boots up and then reaches the Linux command prompt.
 
-*******************
-Generating Capsules
-*******************
+During the negative capsule update test, the Corstone-1000 is given an outdated capsule with a lower version number,
+which is expected to be rejected due to its outdated status, thereby retaining the previous firmware.
+
+Two different capsules (one for each test) are therefore needed to perform the tests.
+
+
+*****************
+Generate Capsules
+*****************
+
+U-Boot's ``mkeficapsule`` tool is used to generate capsules. It is built automatically for the host machine during the firmware image building process.
+The tool can be found in the ``$WORKSPACE/build/tmp/sysroots-components/x86_64/u-boot-tools-native/usr/bin/mkeficapsule`` directory.
+
+``mkeficapsule`` uses a no-partition image which is created when performing a clean firmware build.
+The no-partition image can be found in the ``$WORKSPACE/build/tmp/deploy/images/corstone1000-$TARGET/corstone1000-$TARGET_image.nopt`` directory.
+
+The capsule's default metadata passed can be found in the ``$WORKSPACE/meta-arm/meta-arm-bsp/recipes-bsp/images/corstone1000-flash-firmware-image.bb``
+and ``$WORKSPACE/meta-arm/kas/corstone1000-image-configuration.yml`` files.
+
+Valid Capsule
+=============
+
+An automatically generated capsule can be found in ``$WORKSPACE/build/tmp/deploy/images/corstone1000-$TARGET/corstone1000-$TARGET-v6.uefi.capsule`` after running a firmware build.
+
+The default metadata values are assumed to be correct to generate a valid capsule.
+
+This capsule will be used for the positive capsule update test.
+
+Invalid Capsule
+===============
+
+Generate another capsule with ``fw-version`` metadata set to a lower version than the valid capsule.
+The example below assumes the valid capsule has a default firmware version of 6, and therefore creates an invalid capsule with firmware version 5.
+
+
+Run the following commands to generate an invalid capsule with a ``fw-version`` of ``5``:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+   cd $WORKSPACE
+
+   ./build/tmp/sysroots-components/x86_64/u-boot-tools-native/usr/bin/mkeficapsule \

+   --index 1 \
+   --guid $TARGET_GUID \
+   --fw-version 5 build/tmp/deploy/images/corstone1000-$TARGET/corstone1000-$TARGET_image.nopt \
+   corstone1000-$TARGET-v5.uefi.capsule
+
+
+.. important::
+
+    ``$TARGET_GUID`` is different depending on whether the capsule is built for the ``fvp`` or ``mps3`` ``$TARGET``.
+
+    - ``fvp`` ``$TARGET_GUID`` is ``989f3a4e-46e0-4cd0-9877-a25c70c01329``
+    - ``mps3`` ``$TARGET_GUID`` is ``df1865d1-90fb-4d59-9c38-c9f2c1bba8cc``
+
+The invalid capsule will be located in the ``$WORKSPACE`` directory.
+
+***************************

-A no-partition image is needed for the capsule generation. This image is
-created automatically during a clean Yocto build and it can be found in
-``build/tmp/deploy/images/corstone1000-<fvp/mps3>/corstone1000-<fvp/mps3>_image.nopt``.
-A capsule is also automatically generated with U-Boot's ``mkeficapsule`` tool
-during the Yocto build that uses this ``corstone1000-<fvp/mps3>_image.nopt``. The
-capsule's default metadata, that is passed to the ``mkeficapsule`` tool,
-can be found in the ``meta-arm/meta-arm-bsp/recipes-bsp/images/corstone1000-flash-firmware-image.bb``
-and ``meta-arm/kas/corstone1000-image-configuration.yml`` files. These
-data can be modified before the Yocto build if it is needed. It is
-assumed that the default values are used in the following steps.
-
-The automatically generated capsule can be found in
-``build/tmp/deploy/images/corstone1000-<fvp/mps3>/corstone1000-<fvp/mps3>-v6.uefi.capsule``.
-This capsule will be used as the positive capsule during the test in the following
-steps.
-
-Generating Capsules Manually
+#. Download and extract the ACS image `as described for the MPS3 <mps3-instructions-for-acs-image_>`_.
+   The ACS image extraction location will be referred below as ``$ACS_IMAGE_PATH``.
+
+    .. note::
+
+      Creating a USB drive with the ACS image is not required as the image will be mounted with the steps below.
+
+#. Find the first partition's offset of the ``ir-acs-live-image-generic-arm64.wic`` image using the ``fdisk`` tool.
+   The partition table can be listed using:
+
+    .. code-block:: console
+
+        fdisk -lu $ACS_IMAGE_PATH/ir-acs-live-image-generic-arm64.wic
+        Device                                                 Start     End Sectors  Size Type
+        $ACS_IMAGE_PATH/ir-acs-live-image-generic-arm64.wic1    2048  309247  307200  150M Microsoft basic data
+        $ACS_IMAGE_PATH/ir-acs-live-image-generic-arm64.wic2  309248 1343339 1034092  505M Linux filesystem
+
+
+    Given that the first partition starts at sector 2048 and each sector is 512 bytes in size,
+    the first partition is at offset 1048576 (2048 x 512).
+
+#. Mount the ``ir-acs-live-image-generic-arm64.wic`` image using the previously calculated offset:
+
+    .. code-block:: console
+
+        sudo mkdir /mnt/ir-acs-live-image-generic-arm64
+        sudo mount -o rw,offset=<first_partition_offset> $ACS_IMAGE_PATH/ir-acs-live-image-generic-arm64.wic  /mnt/ir-acs-live-image-generic-arm64
+
+#. Copy the capsules:
+
+    .. code-block:: console
+
+        sudo cp $CAPSULES_PATH/corstone1000-fvp-v6.uefi.capsule /mnt/ir-acs-live-image-generic-arm64/
+        sudo cp $CAPSULES_PATH/corstone1000-fvp-v5.uefi.capsule /mnt/ir-acs-live-image-generic-arm64/
+        sync
+
+#. Unmount the IR image:
+
+    .. code-block:: console
+
+        sudo umount /mnt/ir-acs-live-image-generic-arm64
+
+************************
+Run Capsule Update Tests
+************************
+
+The valid capsule (``corstone1000-$TARGET-v6.uefi.capsule``) will be used first to run the positive capsule update test.
+This will be followed by using the invalid capsule (``corstone1000-$TARGET-v5.uefi.capsule``) to run the negative capsule update test.
+
+.. important::
+
+    This sequence order must be respected as the invalid capsule has a firmware version lower than the firmware version in the valid capsule.
+    The negative capsule update test effectively tests that firmware rollback is not permitted.
+
+
+.. _positive-capsule-update-test:
+
+Positive Capsule Update Test
 ============================
 
-If a new capsule has to be generated with different metadata after the build
-process, then it can be done manually by using the ``u-boot-tools``'s
-``mkeficapsule`` and the previously created ``.nopt`` image. The
-``mkeficapsule`` tool is built automatically for the host machine
-during the Yocto build.
+#. Run Corstone-1000 with the ACS image containing the two capsule files:
 
-The negative capsule needs a lower ``fw-version`` than the positive
-capsule. For example if the host's architecture is x86_64, this can
-be generated by using the following command:
+    - MPS3:
 
-::
+      #. Plug the prepared USB drive which has the IR prebuilt image and two capsules to the MPS3.
+      #. Power cycle the MPS3.
 
-   cd <_workspace>
+    - FVP:
 
-   ./build/tmp/sysroots-components/x86_64/u-boot-tools-native/usr/bin/mkeficapsule --monotonic-count 1 \

+      #. Run the FVP with the IR prebuilt image which now also contains the two capsules:
 
-This command will put the negative capsule to the ``<_workspace>`` directory.
+      .. code-block:: console
 
+        kas shell meta-arm/kas/corstone1000-fvp.yml:meta-arm/ci/debug.yml \

-Copying Capsules
-****************
+      .. warning::
 
-Copying the FPGA capsules
-=========================
+          ``$ACS_IMAGE_PATH`` must be an absolute path. Ensure there are no spaces before or after of ``=`` of the ``-C board.msd_mmc.p_mmc_file`` option.
 
-The user should prepare a USB stick as explained in ACS image section `FPGA instructions for ACS image`_.
-Place the generated ``corstone1000-mps3-v<5/6>.uefi.capsule`` files in the root directory of the boot partition
-in the USB stick. Note: As we are running the direct method, the ``corstone1000-mps3-v<5/6>.uefi.capsule`` files
-should not be under the EFI/UpdateCapsule directory as this may or may not trigger
-the on disk method.
 
-::
+#. Wait until U-Boot loads EFI from the ACS image and interrupt the EFI shell by pressing the ``Escape`` key when the following prompt is displayed on the Host Processor terminal (``ttyUSB2``).
 
-   sudo cp <capsule path>/corstone1000-mps3-v6.uefi.capsule <mounting path>/BOOT/
-   sudo cp <capsule path>/corstone1000-mps3-v5.uefi.capsule <mounting path>/BOOT/

+    .. code-block:: console
 
-Copying the FVP capsules
-========================
+        Press ESC in 4 seconds to skip startup.nsh or any other key to continue.
 
-The ACS image should be used for the FVP as well. Downloaded and extract the
-image the same way as for the FPGA `FPGA instructions for ACS image`_.
-Creating an USB stick with the image is not needed for the FVP.
+#. Access the content of the first file system (``File System 0``) where we copied the capsule files by running the following command:
 
-After getting the ACS image, find the 1st partition's offset of the
-``ir-acs-live-image-generic-arm64.wic`` image. The partition table can be
-listed using the ``fdisk`` tool.
+    .. code-block:: console

+    - MPS3:
 
-The first partition starts at the 2048th sector. This has to be multiplied
-by the sector size which is 512 so the offset is 2048 * 512 = 1048576.
+        .. code-block:: console
 
-Next, mount the IR image using the previously calculated offset:

-Then, copy the capsules:
+            EFI/BOOT/app/CapsuleApp.efi corstone1000-fvp-v6.uefi.capsule
 
-::
+    The capsule update will be started.
 
-   sudo cp <capsule path>/corstone1000-fvp-v6.uefi.capsule /mnt/test/
-   sudo cp <capsule path>/corstone1000-fvp-v5.uefi.capsule /mnt/test/
-   sync
+    .. note::
+        The capsule update takes about 8 minutes to complete on MPS3 and between 15-30 minutes on FVP.
 
-Then, unmount the IR image:
+        The Corstone-1000 will reset after successfully applying the capsule.
 
-::
+    
+    The software stack copies the capsule content to the external flash, which is shared between the Secure Enclave and the Host Processor
+    before rebooting the system.
 
-   sudo umount /mnt/test

-*************************************************************
-Debian install and boot preparation
-*************************************************************
+This sections describes the steps to install major Linux distributions to the Corstone-1000 Host Processor.
 
-There is a known issue in the `Shim 15.7 <https://salsa.debian.org/efi-team/shim/-/tree/upstream/15.7?ref_type=tags>`__
-provided with the Debian installer image (see below). This bug causes a fatal
-error when attempting to boot media installer for Debian, and it resets the platform before installation starts.
-A patch to be applied to the Corstone-1000 stack (only applicable when
-installing Debian) is provided to
-`Skip the Shim <https://gitlab.arm.com/arm-reference-solutions/systemready-patch/-/blob/CORSTONE1000-2024.06/embedded-a/corstone1000/shim/0001-arm-bsp-u-boot-corstone1000-Skip-the-shim-by-booting.patch>`__.
-This patch makes U-Boot automatically bypass the Shim and run grub and allows
-the user to proceed with a normal installation. If at the moment of reading this
-document the problem is solved in the Shim, the user is encouraged to try the
-corresponding new installer image. Otherwise, please apply the patch as
-indicated by the instructions listed below. These instructions assume that the
-user has already built the stack by following the build steps of this
-documentation.
+The Linux distributions to be installed are:
 
-::
+ - `Debian <https://www.debian.org/>`__
+ - `openSUSE <https://www.opensuse.org/>`__
 
-  cd <_workspace>
-  git clone https://git.gitlab.arm.com/arm-reference-solutions/systemready-patch.git -b CORSTONE1000-2024.06
-  cp -f systemready-patch/embedded-a/corstone1000/shim/0001-arm-bsp-u-boot-corstone1000-Skip-the-shim-by-booting.patch meta-arm
-  cd meta-arm
-  git am 0001-arm-bsp-u-boot-corstone1000-Skip-the-shim-by-booting.patch
-  cd ..
+Follow the instructions below to install the Linux distributions to the Corstone-1000 software stack.
 
-**On FPGA**
+**************************
+Prepare Installation Media
+**************************
 
-::
+The media containing the bootable files required to start the installation process needs to be prepared.
 
-  kas shell meta-arm/kas/corstone1000-mps3.yml:meta-arm/ci/debug.yml -c="bitbake u-boot trusted-firmware-a corstone1000-flash-firmware-image -c cleansstate; bitbake corstone1000-flash-firmware-image"
+Follow the instructions below to create the installation media.
 
-**On FVP**
+#. Using your development machine, download one of following Linux distribution images:
 
-::
+    - `Debian installer image <https://cdimage.debian.org/mirror/cdimage/archive/12.7.0/arm64/iso-dvd/>`__
+    - `OpenSUSE Tumbleweed installer image <http://download.opensuse.org/ports/aarch64/tumbleweed/iso/>`__ 
 
-  kas shell meta-arm/kas/corstone1000-fvp.yml:meta-arm/ci/debug.yml -c="bitbake u-boot trusted-firmware-a corstone1000-flash-firmware-image -c cleansstate; bitbake corstone1000-flash-firmware-image"
+    .. note::
+        
+        For openSUSE Tumbleweed, search for an ISO file with the format: ``openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-aarch64-Snapshot$DATE-Media.iso``.
+        
+        ``openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-aarch64-Snapshot20240516-Media.iso`` was used during development.
 
-On FPGA, please update the cs1000.bin on the SD card with the newly generated wic file.
+    The location of the ISO file on the development machine will be referred to as ``$DISTRO_INSTALLER_ISO_PATH``.
 
-**NOTE:** Skip the shim patch only applies to Debian installation. The user should remove the patch from meta-arm before running the software to boot OpenSUSE or executing any other tests in this user guide. You can make sure of removing the skip the shim patch by executing the steps below.
+#. Create the installation media which will contain the necessary files to install the operation system.
 
-::
+    - MPS3:
 
-  cd <_workspace>/meta-arm
-  git reset --hard HEAD~1
-  cd ..

-*************************************************
-Preparing the Installation Media
-*************************************************
+        #. Run the following command to discover which device is your USB drive:
 
-Download one of following Linux distro images:
- - `Debian installer image <https://cdimage.debian.org/mirror/cdimage/archive/12.4.0/arm64/iso-dvd/>`__
- - `OpenSUSE Tumbleweed installer image <http://download.opensuse.org/ports/aarch64/tumbleweed/iso/>`__ (Tested on: openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-aarch64-Snapshot20240516-Media.iso)
+            .. code-block:: console
 
-**NOTE:** For OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, the user should look for a DVD Snapshot like
-openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-aarch64-Snapshot<date>-Media.iso
+                lsblk
 
+            The remaining steps assume the USB drive is ``/dev/sdb``.
 
-FPGA
-==================================================
+            .. warning::
 
-To test Linux distro install and boot on FPGA, the user should prepare two empty USB
-sticks (minimum size should be 4GB and formatted with FAT32).
+                Do not mistake your development machine hard drive with the USB drive.
 
-The downloaded iso file needs to be flashed to your USB drive.
-This can be done with your development machine.
+        #. Write one of the distribution installer ISO file to the USB drive.
 
-In the example given below, we assume the USB device is ``/dev/sdb`` (the user
-should use the `lsblk` command to confirm).
+            .. code-block:: console
 
-**NOTE:** Please don't confuse your host machine own hard drive with the USB drive.
-Then, copy the contents of the iso file into the first USB stick by running the
-following command in the development machine:
+                sudo dd if=$DISTRO_INSTALLER_ISO_PATH of=/dev/sdb iflag=direct oflag=direct status=progress bs=1M; sync;
 
-::
+    - FVP:
 
-  sudo dd if=<path-to-iso_file> of=/dev/sdb iflag=direct oflag=direct status=progress bs=1M; sync;
+        The distribution installer ISO file does not need to be burnt to a USB drive.
+        It will be used as is when starting the FVP install the distribution.

-Debian install clarifications
-*******************************************************
 
-As the installation process for Debian is different than the one for openSUSE,
-Debian may need some extra steps, that are indicated below:
+Debian Installation Extra Steps
+===============================
 
-During Debian installation, please answer the following question:
- - "Force grub installation to the EFI removable media path?" Yes
- - "Update NVRAM variables to automatically boot into Debian?" No
+Debian installation may need some extra steps, that are indicated below:
 
-If the grub installation fails, these are the steps to follow on the subsequent
-popups:
+#. Answer ``Yes`` to the question ``Force grub installation to the EFI removable media path?``.
 
-1. Select "Continue", then "Continue" again on the next popup
-2. Scroll down and select "Execute a shell"
-3. Select "Continue"
-4. Enter the following command:
+    If the GRUB installation fails, these are the steps to follow on the subsequent
+    popups:
 
-::
+    #. Select ``Continue``, then ``Continue`` again on the next popup.
 
-   in-target grub-install --no-nvram --force-extra-removable
+    #. Scroll down and select ``Execute a shell``.
 
-5. Enter the following command:

+*****************
+
+- MPS3
+
+    #. Once the installation is complete, unplug the installation media.
+    #. Perform a cold boot of the MPS3.
+
+- FVP
+
+    The target should automatically boot into the installed operating system image.
+
+    Stop the FVP and run the command below to simulate a cold boot:
+
+    .. code-block:: console
+
+        kas shell meta-arm/kas/corstone1000-fvp.yml:meta-arm/ci/debug.yml \

+
+    .. warning::
+
+        To manually enter recovery mode, once the FVP begins booting, you can quickly
+        change the boot option in GRUB, to boot into recovery mode. This option will disappear
+        quickly, so it is best to preempt it.
+
+        Select ``Advanced Options for <OS>`` and then ``<OS> (recovery mode)``.
+
+
+The target will then enter recovery mode, from which the user can access a shell
+after entering the password for the ``root`` user.
+
+
+Timeout Optimizations
+=====================
+
+.. important::
+
+    Operating system timeouts are inconsistent across systems.
+    Skip this section if the system boots to Debian or OpenSUSE without any issue.
+
+Make the system modification below whilst in recovery mode to increase timeouts and boot to the installed distribution.
+
+#. Remove the timeout limit for device operations.
+
+    - Debian
+        .. code-block:: console
+
+            vi /etc/systemd/system.conf
+            DefaultDeviceTimeoutSec=infinity
+
+    - openSUSE
+        .. code-block:: console
+
+            vi /usr/lib/systemd/system.conf
+            DefaultDeviceTimeoutSec=infinity
+
+        .. warning::
+
+            As modifying ``system.conf`` in ``/usr/lib/systemd/`` is not working as it is getting overwritten,
+            copy ``system.conf`` from ``/usr/lib/systemd/`` to ``/etc/systemd/system.conf.d/`` after the above edit.
+
+#. Set the maximum time that the system will wait for a user to successfully log in before timing out to 180 seconds.
+
+    - Debian
+        .. code-block:: console
+
+            vi /etc/login.defs
+            LOGIN_TIMEOUT   180

+
+#. Ensure the changes are applied by run the command below.
+
+    .. code-block:: console
+
+        systemctl daemon-reload
+
+#. Perform a cold boot of the target.
+
+Log into the Distribution
+=========================
+
+Login with the ``root`` username and its corresponding password (set during installation)
+at the distribution login prompt after booting. See an illustration for Debian below:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    debian login:
+
+
+UEFI Secure Boot
+----------------
+
+The UEFI Secure Boot test is designed to verify the integrity and authenticity of the system’s boot process.
+This test ensures that only trusted, signed images are executed, thereby preventing unauthorized or malicious code from running.
+A successful test confirms that the signed image executes correctly, while any unsigned image is blocked from running.

+**************************
+Run Signed Image Boot Test
+**************************
 
-UEFI Secureboot (SB) test
--------------------------
+FVP
+===
 
-Before running the SB test, the user should make sure that the `FVP and FPGA software has been compiled and the ESP image for both the FVP and FPGA has been created` as mentioned in the previous sections and user should use the same workspace directory under which sources have been compiled.
-The SB test is applicable on both the FVP and the FPGA and this involves testing both the signed and unsigned kernel images. Successful test results in executing the signed image correctly and not allowing the unsigned image to run at all.
+.. important::
 
-***********************************************************
-Below steps are applicable to FVP as well as FPGA
-***********************************************************
-Firstly, the flash firmware image has to be built for both the FVP and FPGA as follows:
+    You must first perform the `Unsigned Image Boot Test <unsigned-image-boot-test-fvp_>`__.
 
-For FVP,
+Load the signed kernel image.
 
-::
+.. code-block:: console
 
-  kas shell meta-arm/kas/corstone1000-fvp.yml:meta-arm/ci/debug.yml -c bitbake -c build corstone1000-flash-firmware-image"
+    corstone1000# \
+    load mmc 1:1 $loadaddr corstone1000_secureboot_fvp_images/Image_fvp.signed; \
+    loadm $loadaddr $kernel_addr_r $filesize; \
+    bootefi $kernel_addr_r $fdtcontroladdr
 
+The signed Linux kernel image should be booted successfully.
 
-For FPGA,
+MPS3
+====
 
-::
+.. important::
 
-  kas shell meta-arm/kas/corstone1000-mps3.yml:meta-arm/ci/debug.yml -c bitbake -c build corstone1000-flash-firmware-image"
+    You must first perform the `Unsigned Image Boot Test <unsigned-image-boot-test-mps3_>`__.
 
-In order to test SB for FVP and FPGA, a bash script is available in the systemready-patch repo which is responsible in creating the relevant keys, sign the respective kernel images, and copy the same in their corresponding ESP images.
+Load the signed kernel image.
 
-Clone the systemready-patch repo under <_workspace. Then, change directory to where the script `create_keys_and_sign.sh` is and execute the script as follows:
+.. code-block:: console
 
-::
+    corstone1000# \
+    load usb 0 $loadaddr corstone1000_secureboot_mps3_images/Image_mps3.signed; \
+    loadm $loadaddr $kernel_addr_r $filesize; \
+    bootefi $kernel_addr_r $fdtcontroladdr
 
-  git clone https://git.gitlab.arm.com/arm-reference-solutions/systemready-patch.git -b CORSTONE1000-2024.06
-  cd systemready-patch/embedded-a/corstone1000/secureboot/
+The signed Linux kernel image should be booted successfully.
 
-**NOTE:** The efitools package is required to execute the script. Install the efitools package on your system, if it doesn't exist.
 
-The script is responsible to create the required UEFI secureboot keys, sign the kernel images and copy the public keys and the kernel images (both signed and unsigned) to the ESP image for both the FVP and FPGA.
+*******************
+Disable Secure Boot
+*******************
 
-::
+Running the UEFI Secure Boot Test steps stores UEFI authenticated variables in the secure flash.
+As a result, U-Boot reads these variables and verifies the Linux kernel image before executing it at each reboot.
 
-  ./create_keys_and_sign.sh -w <Absolute path to <workdir> directory under which sources have been compiled> -v <certification validity in days>
-  For ex: ./create_keys_and_sign.sh -w "/home/xyz/workspace/meta-arm" -v 365
-  For help: ./create_keys_and_sign.sh -h
+In a typical boot scenario, the Linux kernel image is not signed, which will prevent the system from booting due to failed image authentication.
+To resolve this, the Platform Key (one of the UEFI authenticated variables for secure boot) needs to be deleted.
 
-**NOTE:** The above script is interactive and contains some commands that would require sudo password/permissions.
+#. Perform a cold boot of the MPS3.
 
-After executing the above script, the relevant keys and the signed/unsigned kernel images will be copied to the ESP images for both the FVP and FGPA. The modified ESP images can be found at the same location i.e.
+#. On the Host Processor terminal host side, stop the execution of U-Boot when prompted to do so with the message ``Press any key to stop``.
 
-::
+#. On the U-Boot console, delete the Platform Key (PK).
 
-  For MPS3 FPGA : _workspace/meta-arm/build/tmp/deploy/images/corstone1000-mps3/corstone1000-esp-image-corstone1000-mps3.wic
-  For FVP       : _workspace/meta-arm/build/tmp/deploy/images/corstone1000-fvp/corstone1000-esp-image-corstone1000-fvp.wic
+    - FVP
 
-Now, it is time to test the SB for the Corstone-1000
+        .. code-block:: console
 
+            corstone1000# \
+            mmc dev 1; \
+            load mmc 1:1 $loadaddr corstone1000_secureboot_keys/PK_delete.auth && setenv -e -nv -bs -rt -at -i $loadaddr:$filesize PK; \
+            boot
 
-***********************************************************
-Steps to test SB on FVP
-***********************************************************
-Now, as mentioned in the previous section **Prepare EFI System Partition**, the ESP image will be used automatically in the Corstone-1000 FVP as the 2nd MMC card image. Change directory to your workspace and run the FVP as follows:
+    - MPS3
 
-::
+        .. code-block:: console
 
-  kas shell meta-arm/kas/corstone1000-fvp.yml:meta-arm/ci/debug.yml -c "../meta-arm/scripts/runfvp --terminals=xterm"
+            corstone1000# \
+            usb reset; \
+            usb dev 0; \

+            boot
 
-When the script is executed, three terminal instances will be launched, one for the boot processor (aka Secure Enclave) processing element and two for the Host processing element. On the host side, stop the execution at the U-Boot prompt which looks like `corstone1000#`. There is a timeout of 3 seconds to stop the execution at the U-Boot prompt. At the U-Boot prompt, run the following commands:
 
-Set the current mmc device

-The above set of commands should result in booting of signed linux kernel image successfully.
+    Access to the External System Processor is disabled by default.
+    Ensure you are running a software stack image with access to the External System Processor enabled following the steps `here <building-the-software-stack_>`__.
 
+The Linux operating system running on the Host Processor starts the ``remoteproc`` framework to manage the External System Processor.
 
-***********************************************************
-Steps to test SB on MPS3 FPGA
