The `fip-uefi.bin` firmware image will contain the `TF-A BL2` boot loader image which is responsible for unpacking the rest of the firmware as well as the firmware that TF-A BL2 unpacks. This includes the `SCP BL2` (`scp_ramfw.bin`) image that is unpacked by the AP firmware and transferred over to the SCP TCMs using the SCP shared data store module. Along with the FIP image, the FVP also needs the `TF-A BL1` image and the `SCP BL1` (`scp_romfw.bin`) image files.
