I am attracted by the Android Trusty OS post in the end of https://source.android.com/security/trusty/index.html. Looks like this is the OS code run inside TEE environment. 

Can Trusty OS run on android emulator? I know android emulator is built on top of qemu and should already has the TrustZone feature enabled. 

Thanks for any response.

Hi Kailiang,

I am also interested in trusted application development. I have read the Trusty TEE documentation but it does not have much detail.
Could you please give more detail about how did you compile the Android Trusty TEE and run it on QEMU? Any help will be much appreciated.

Hey, I am also currently trying to do work with trusty. Specially I want to deploy it on a Nexus 5 and write a TA for it. Building requires setting some ENV-variables and fixing some missing guards in the current version, but currently I struggle deploying it somewhere. If you found out how to deploy it on a device, emulator or QEMU I would be really gratefull if you could tell me how.

Hi Kailiang,

Did you find a way to install TrustyOS on a device? I managed to compile it but couldn't find a way to deploy it on a read device.

Same here. There is no information on how to deploy it on a device.
