      Enable SVE for Non-secure world · 1a853370
      David Cunado authored 
      

This patch adds a new build option, ENABLE_SVE_FOR_NS, which when set
to one EL3 will check to see if the Scalable Vector Extension (SVE) is
implemented when entering and exiting the Non-secure world.

If SVE is implemented, EL3 will do the following:

- Entry to Non-secure world: SIMD, FP and SVE functionality is enabled.

- Exit from Non-secure world: SIMD, FP and SVE functionality is
  disabled. As SIMD and FP registers are part of the SVE Z-registers
  then any use of SIMD / FP functionality would corrupt the SVE
  registers.

The build option default is 1. The SVE functionality is only supported
on AArch64 and so the build option is set to zero when the target
archiecture is AArch32.

This build option is not compatible with the CTX_INCLUDE_FPREGS - an
assert will be raised on platforms where SVE is implemented and both
ENABLE_SVE_FOR_NS and CTX_INCLUDE_FPREGS are set to 1.

Also note this change prevents secure world use of FP&SIMD registers on
SVE-enabled platforms. Existing Secure-EL1 Payloads will not work on
such platforms unless ENABLE_SVE_FOR_NS is set to 0.

Additionally, on the first entry into the Non-secure world the SVE
functionality is enabled and the SVE Z-register length is set to the
maximum size allowed by the architecture. This includes the use case
where EL2 is implemented but not used.

      Move FPEXC32_EL2 to FP Context · 91089f36
      David Cunado authored 
      

The FPEXC32_EL2 register controls SIMD and FP functionality when the
lower ELs are executing in AArch32 mode. It is architecturally mapped
to AArch32 system register FPEXC.

This patch removes FPEXC32_EL2 register from the System Register context
and adds it to the floating-point context. EL3 only saves / restores the
floating-point context if the build option CTX_INCLUDE_FPREGS is set to 1.

The rationale for this change is that if the Secure world is using FP
functionality and EL3 is not managing the FP context, then the Secure
world will save / restore the appropriate FP registers.

NOTE - this is a break in behaviour in the unlikely case that
CTX_INCLUDE_FPREGS is set to 0 and the platform contains an AArch32
Secure Payload that modifies FPEXC, but does not save and restore
this register

      SPM: Fix SP_COMMUNICATE_AARCH32/64 parameters · d6b532b5

The parameters passed to the Secure world from the Secure Partition
Manager when invoking SP_COMMUNICATE_AARCH32/64 were incorrect, as well
as the checks done on them.

      SPM: Fix calculation of max page granularity · 9efd6e5c
      Antonio Nino Diaz authored 
      

The code was incorrectly reading from ID_AA64PRF0_EL1 instead of
ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1 causing the supported granularity sizes returned by the
code to be wrong.

This wasn't causing any problem because it's just used to check the
alignment of the base of the buffer shared between Non-secure and Secure
worlds, and it was aligned to more than 64 KiB, which is the maximum
granularity supported by the architecture.
