Here's what I've learned so far via various responses, research and testing.

There are multiple boot flows that can be used with OP-TEE:
1. SPL -> ATF -> OP-TEE -> U-boot -> LInux
2. SPL -> OP-TEE -> U-boot -> Linux

I'm not really clear what the pros and cons of each are - can anyone
shed some light on this?

Method #1 is what I've found the most info on and have mostly gotten
working so I will go over that here. As IMX8MM runs on Cortex-A Arm
TrustZone is available and thus TF-A can be used.

By the way, I'm a bit confused as to ATF vs TF-A. From what I can find:
- ATF (Arm Trusted Firmware) is a Trusted Firmware reference
implementation of secure world software for Armv7-A, Armv8-A, and
Armv8-M architectures.
- TF-A (Trusted Firmware-A) also appears to provide the same thing
Are these the same? Which one is it that NXP uses for imx-atf [1]

When OP-TEE is used with TF-A the TF-A gets invoked with the TEE as
bl32 and main u-boot as bl33. Once it has done its startup TF-A jumps
into the bl32(OP-TEE) for the TEE startup, returns to TF-A and then
jumps to bl33(U-Boot).

For this boot flow on IMX8MM you need to do the following:
- build TF-A (bl31.bin) with OP-TEE as a Secure Payload Dispatcher
(SPD) (add 'SPD=opteed' to env)
- build OP-TEE (tee.bin)
- add tee.bin to U-Boot FIT image along with TF-A binary in images node
 * for boards still using arch/arm/mach-imx/mkimage_fit_atf.sh FIT
generation this is done automatically when tee.bin is U-Boot's build
directory but you also need to set TEE_LOAD_ADDR env to specify the
load addr of the TEE which depends on the board DRAM size
 * for boards using binman the generation of the FIT image has moved
to using the 'binman' tool thus adding tee.bin requires you to modify
your board's u-boot.dtsi itb node to add tee.bin to itb/fit/images/
and add a reference to it in the loadables property of your boot
configuration following atf. This is shown in my patch above except
there I neglected to add the required 'tee_blob: blob-ext { filename =
"tee.bin"; }. Here you must set the TEE_LOAD_ADDR as the load address
manually.
- To enable OP-TEE support in U-Boot a /firmware/optee node needs to
be added to your board u-boot.dtsi with 'compatible =
"linaro,optee-tz"' and 'method = "smc"' nodes
 * This node is used by the U-Boot dek_blob command
 * If present then U-Boot will also copy it to your Linux dtb via
image_setup_libfdt->optee_copy_fdt_nodes
- To enable dek_blob in U-Boot enable CONFIG_CMD_DEKBLOB=y which will
enable CONFIG_IMX_OPTEE_DEK_ENCAP=y
- To enable optee driver in Linux enable CONFIG_TEE and CONFIG_OPTEE
and optionally CONFIG_HW_RANDOM_OPTEE
- Also, I believe you need to add memory reservations in the dt via a
/reserved-memory/optee_core and /reserved-memory/optee_shm which will
also be copied to the linux dtb as well if present and also depend on
the OP-TEE memory location/configuration

If you are using NXP's imx-optee-os [2] for IMX8MM then you can use
the 'mx8mmevk' platform which simply configures the following which
can be overridden via env:
CFG_UART_BASE ?= UART2_BASE
CFG_DDR_SIZE ?= 0x80000000

In core/arch/arm/plat-imx/conf.mk for imx8mm CFG_DDR_SIZE is used to
compute CFG_TZDRAM_START where optee gets loaded (TEE_LOAD_ADDR):
# put optee end of ddr for AARCH64
CFG_TZDRAM_START ?= ($(CFG_DRAM_BASE) - 0x02000000 + $(CFG_DDR_SIZE))
CFG_TZDRAM_SIZE ?= 0x01c00000
CFG_SHMEM_START ?= ($(CFG_TZDRAM_START) + $(CFG_TZDRAM_SIZE))
CFG_SHMEM_SIZE ?= 0x00400000

thus:
CFG_DDR_SIZE = 0x40000000 (1GiB) results in
CFG_TZDRAM_START=0x7e000000 (TEE_LOAD_ADDR) and
CFG_SHMEM_START=0x7fc00000
CFG_DDR_SIZE = 0x80000000 (2GiB) results in
CFG_TZDRAM_START=0xbe000000 (TEE_LOAD_ADDR) and
CFG_SHMEM_START=0xbfc00000
CFG_DDR_SIZE = 0x100000000 (4GiB) results in
CFG_TZDRAM_START=0x13e000000 (TEE_LOAD_ADDR) and
CFG_SHMEM_START=0x13fc00000

So for a 2GiB board your dt changes for a board already using binman
should look like this:

I have done all of the above using imx-atf [1] and imx-optee-os [2] on
a 2GiB IMX8MM board and successfully boot to U-Boot where I verify
dek_blob works, and then successfully booting to Linux where I verify
that the Linux optee driver probes.

But, what confuses me relates to optee memory usage and location
(TEE_LOAD_ADDR) based on testing on 1GiB and 4GiB IMX8MM boards:
- CFG_DDR_SIZE = 0x40000000 (1GiB); TEE_LOAD_ADDR=0x7e000000
  - panic's at core/arch/arm/mm/core_mmu.c <check_pa_matches_va> on a
1GiB DRAM board (why? makes no sense)
  - panic's at core/arch/arm/mm/core_mmu.c <check_pa_matches_va> on a
2GiB DRAM board (this makes sense as 0x7e000000 should be out of
bounds!)
  - hangs in opteed_init on a 4GiB DRAM board (why?)
- CFG_DDR_SIZE = 0x80000000 (2GiB); TEE_LOAD_ADDR=0xbe000000
  - boots on a 1GiB DRAM board... shouldn't that crash when accessing
0xbe000000?
  - boots on a 2GiB DRAM board
  - boots on a 4GiB DRAM board
CFG_DDR_SIZE = 0x100000000 (4GiB); TEE_LOAD_ADDR=0x13e000000
  - fails building: 'Error: u-boot.its:63.13-24 Value out of range for
32-bit array element'
  - also this may be an issue as currently IMX8MM boards have DRAM
limited to 3GiB due to various IP drivers not being 64bit ready

Also, I find that the memory reservations produce an error when I TFTP
a file due to (tftp_init_load_addr -> lmb_init_and_reserve)
u-boot=> tftpboot $fdt_addr_r venice/imx8mm-venice-gw73xx-0x.dtb

ERROR: reserving fdt memory region failed (addr=bfc00000 size=400000 flags=0)

Can anyone explain the memory configurations needed for IMX8MM OP-TEE?
