+Arm Platform Security Architecture(PSA) Firmware Framework(FF) for Armv8-A
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+This binding is intended to define the interface the firmware framework
+implementing the Non-secure partitions/endpoints(mostly VMs) as described
+in ARM document ARM DEN 0077A ("Arm Platform Security Architecture
+Firmware Framework for Arm v8-A") [0]
+
+In the case of a Non-secure virtual FF-A instance, the hypervisor
+(e.g. Linux KVM) can use this binding to create and launch VM partitions.
+
+The SMCCC conduit available in the VM partition itself is used and hence
+there is no explicit binding to specify the conduit used for PSA FFA
+interface.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible : Should be one of:
+	       "arm,psa-ffa"
+
+- One or more child nodes, each describing an PSA FFA partition using the
+  following required properties:
+
+  - compatible: Should be one of:
+		"arm,psa-ffa-partition"
+
+  - uuid : The 128-bit UUID [2] of the service implemented by this partition,
+	   represented as a string.

+Example:
+
+	#address-cells = <2>;
+	#size-cells = <2>;
+
+	firmware {
+		psa-ffa {
+			compatible = "arm,psa-ffa";
+
+			partition0: psa_ffa_partition {
+				compatible = "arm,psa-ffa-partition";
+				uuid = "12345678-9abc-def0-1234-56789abcdef0";
