Re: [Teep] Hardware for hackathons

Hi Dave, Hannes and Isobe-san,

For the further discussion for the future hackathon, I searched
information of Grapeboard and STM32MP157C-DK2 (which is STM CortexA7
devboard, I will abbreviate as StmA7board).

It is not mandatory but it would be nice to have/use unified
programing software stacks for the TEEP development on both TAM and
TEEP device.
I briefly mentioned about it on page 14 in the slide at IETF106.
https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/106/materials/slides-106-teep-sessb-teep-hackathon-report

Also, I looked inside the Dave`s OTrP over http implementation.
https://github.com/dthaler/OTrP

I have listed items for a discussion of the choices which were based
on what we used at the ietf106 hackathon.
Dave and Isobe-san, please correct me if I am wrong. :)

*) JSON stack:
(1) jansson, which Dave is using
https://github.com/akheron/jansson
(2) node.js, Isobe-san`s TAM
(3) json parser in libwebsockets, which my prototype is using
https://github.com/warmcat/libwebsockets/tree/master/lib/jose

*) JOSE stack:
(1) latchset/jose, which Dave is using
https://github.com/latchset/jose
(2) node.js?, Isobe-san`s TAM
(3) libwebsockets

*) HTTP stack:
(1) from scratch?, In Dave`s
https://github.com/dthaler/OTrP/blob/master/TeepTamBrokerLib/HttpServer.cpp
(2) libwebsockets, In mine

*) Crypto-tsl stack:
(1) openssl, Dave`s
(2) mbedtls, mine
Other than above, might good to use smaller libs, wolfSSL or s2n on
the device side?

*) rootfs
(1) Ubuntu?, Dave`s
(2) buildroot, mine

The default rootfs of dev boards introduced by Dave and Hannes.
*) Grapeboard
Ubuntu, customizable to Yocto/OE, OpenWRT and etc
*) StmA7board
Yocto/OE (OpenSTLinux)

Also, we have to consider the hardware requirements of SGX, ARM
TrustZone and RISC-V too.
The SGX is pretty handy since it could use simulation mode on any pc.
The op-tee is able to run on qemu too.

For the dev board, cross compiling is used so what to do on host pc,
Linux pc with ubuntu, win and etc.

And it would be really nice to have docker image for the dev
environment which includes necessary software stacks for developing
teep/otrp at least for developing TAM side.

The TAM and TEEP device do not have to be using the same software
stacks listed above.

I honestly do not have any preference listed above. I was late on the
boat and did not know what others have done in the past.

We do not have so much engineering resources at the moment, so I
thought it would be good to work on similar environment as possible to
able to focus on teep stack.
