+---------------
+
+There are some build flags which can be defined by the platform to control
+inclusion or exclusion of certain BL stages from the FIP image. These flags
+need to be defined in the platform makefile which will get included by the
+build system.
+
+* **NEED_BL30**
+ This flag if defined by the platform mandates that a BL3-0 binary should
+ be included in the FIP image. The path to the BL3-0 binary can be specified
+ by the `BL30` build option (see build options in the [User Guide]).
+
+* **NEED_BL33**
+ By default, this flag is defined `yes` by the build system and `BL33`
+ build option should be supplied as a build option. The platform has the option
+ of excluding the BL3-3 image in the `fip` image by defining this flag to
+ `no`.

### Summary of build options
ARM Trusted Firmware build system supports the following build options. Unless
If a BL3-0 image is present then this option must be passed for the `fip`
target.
-* `BL33`: Path to BL33 image in the host file system. This is mandatory for
- `fip` target.
+* `BL33`: Path to BL3-3 image in the host file system. This is mandatory for
+ `fip` target in case the BL2 from ARM Trusted Firmware is used.
+
+* `BL2`: This is an optional build option which specifies the path to BL2
+ image for the `fip` target. In this case, the BL2 in the ARM Trusted
+ Firmware will not be built.
+
+* `BL31`: This is an optional build option which specifies the path to
+ BL3-1 image for the `fip` target. In this case, the BL3-1 in the ARM
+ Trusted Firmware will not be built.
+
+* `BL32`: This is an optional build option which specifies the path to
+ BL3-2 image for the `fip` target. In this case, the BL3-2 in the ARM
+ Trusted Firmware will not be built.
* `CROSS_COMPILE`: Prefix to toolchain binaries. Please refer to examples in
this document for usage.
