ARM Trusted Firmware for Socionext UniPhier SoCs
================================================
+
Socionext UniPhier ARMv8-A SoCs use ARM Trusted Firmware as the secure world
firmware, supporting BL1, BL2, and BL31.
UniPhier SoC family implements its internal boot ROM, so BL1 is used as pseudo
-ROM (i.e. runs in RAM). The internal boot ROM loads 64KB `1`_ image from a
+ROM (i.e. runs in RAM). The internal boot ROM loads 64KB [1]_ image from a
non-volatile storage to the on-chip SRAM. Unfortunately, BL1 does not fit in
the 64KB limit if `Trusted Board Boot`_ (TBB) is enabled. To solve this problem,
Socionext provides a first stage loader called `UniPhier BL`_. This loader runs
