Sample SBL Code

When adding a firewall, no transactions can be in transit that would hit the firewall. As such, adding firewalls during initialization is recommended. Below is one option showing functions that can be added to the SBL boot flow to program the A72 Master firewall.

As mentioned above, this same framework can be re-used for Slave firewalls and other Master firewalls. Only the table entries need to be updated. Table entries can be generated using the SysConfig tool.
