The ARMv8v.1 architecture extension has introduced support for far
atomics, which includes compare-and-swap. Compare and Swap instruction
is only available for AArch64.

Introduce build options to choose the architecture versions to target
ARM Trusted Firmware:

  - ARM_ARCH_MAJOR: selects the major version of target ARM
    Architecture. Default value is 8.

  - ARM_ARCH_MINOR: selects the minor version of target ARM
    Architecture. Default value is 0.

When:

  (ARM_ARCH_MAJOR > 8) || ((ARM_ARCH_MAJOR == 8) && (ARM_ARCH_MINOR >= 1)),

for AArch64, Compare and Swap instruction is used to implement spin
locks. Otherwise, the implementation falls back to using
load-/store-exclusive instructions.

Update user guide, and introduce a section in Firmware Design guide to
summarize support for features introduced in ARMv8 Architecture
Extensions.

This Linaro release updates both the binaries and the toolchain:
Linaro binaries upgraded 16.06 --> 16.12
AArch64 compiler upgraded 15.05 (gcc 4.9) --> 5.3-2015.05 (gcc 5.3)
AArch32 compiler upgraded 15.05 (gcc 4.9) --> 5.3-2015.05 (gcc 5.3)

The ARM TF codebase has been tested against these new binaries. This patch
updates the User Guide to reflect that the 16.12 release is now a supported
Linaro Release.

This patch introduces the following three platform interfaces:

* void plat_psci_stat_accounting_start(const psci_power_state_t *state_info)

  This is an optional hook that platforms can implement in order
  to perform accounting before entering a low power state.  This
  typically involves capturing a timestamp.

* void plat_psci_stat_accounting_stop(const psci_power_state_t *state_info)

  This is an optional hook that platforms can implement in order
  to perform accounting after exiting from a low power state.  This
  typically involves capturing a timestamp.

* u_register_t plat_psci_stat_get_residency(unsigned int lvl,
	const psci_power_state_t *state_info,
	unsigned int last_cpu_index)

  This is an optional hook that platforms can implement in order
  to calculate the PSCI stat residency.

If any of these interfaces are overridden by the platform, it is
recommended that all of them are.

By default `ENABLE_PSCI_STAT` is disabled.  If `ENABLE_PSCI_STAT`
is set but `ENABLE_PMF` is not set then an alternative PSCI stat
collection backend must be provided.  If both are set, then default
weak definitions of these functions are provided, using PMF to
calculate the residency.

NOTE: Previously, platforms did not have to explicitly set
`ENABLE_PMF` since this was automatically done by the top-level
Makefile.

Introduce zeromem_dczva function on AArch64 that can handle unaligned
addresses and make use of DC ZVA instruction to zero a whole block at a
time. This zeroing takes place directly in the cache to speed it up
without doing external memory access.

Remove the zeromem16 function on AArch64 and replace it with an alias to
zeromem. This zeromem16 function is now deprecated.

Remove the 16-bytes alignment constraint on __BSS_START__ in
firmware-design.md as it is now not mandatory anymore (it used to comply
with zeromem16 requirements).

Change the 16-bytes alignment constraints in SP min's linker script to a
8-bytes alignment constraint as the AArch32 zeromem implementation is now
more efficient on 8-bytes aligned addresses.

Introduce zero_normalmem and zeromem helpers in platform agnostic header
that are implemented this way:
* AArch32:
	* zero_normalmem: zero using usual data access
	* zeromem: alias for zero_normalmem
* AArch64:
	* zero_normalmem: zero normal memory  using DC ZVA instruction
	                  (needs MMU enabled)
	* zeromem: zero using usual data access

Usage guidelines: in most cases, zero_normalmem should be preferred.

There are 2 scenarios where zeromem (or memset) must be used instead:
* Code that must run with MMU disabled (which means all memory is
  considered device memory for data accesses).
* Code that fills device memory with null bytes.

Optionally, the following rule can be applied if performance is
important:
* Code zeroing small areas (few bytes) that are not secrets should use
  memset to take advantage of compiler optimizations.

  Note: Code zeroing security-related critical information should use
  zero_normalmem/zeromem instead of memset to avoid removal by
  compilers' optimizations in some cases or misbehaving versions of GCC.

The errata reporting policy is as follows:

  - If an errata workaround is enabled:

    - If it applies (i.e. the CPU is affected by the errata), an INFO
      message is printed, confirming that the errata workaround has been
      applied.

    - If it does not apply, a VERBOSE message is printed, confirming
      that the errata workaround has been skipped.

  - If an errata workaround is not enabled, but would have applied had
    it been, a WARN message is printed, alerting that errata workaround
    is missing.

The CPU errata messages are printed by both BL1 (primary CPU only) and
runtime firmware on debug builds, once for each CPU/errata combination.

Various CPU drivers in ARM Trusted Firmware register functions to handle
power-down operations. At present, separate functions are registered to
power down individual cores and clusters.

This scheme operates on the basis of core and cluster, and doesn't cater
for extending the hierarchy for power-down operations. For example,
future CPUs might support multiple threads which might need powering
down individually.

This patch therefore reworks the CPU operations framework to allow for
registering power down handlers on specific level basis. Henceforth:

  - Generic code invokes CPU power down operations by the level
    required.

  - CPU drivers explicitly mention CPU_NO_RESET_FUNC when the CPU has no
    reset function.

  - CPU drivers register power down handlers as a list: a mandatory
    handler for level 0, and optional handlers for higher levels.

All existing CPU drivers are adapted to the new CPU operations framework
without needing any functional changes within.

Also update firmware design guide.

The previous code required that a certificate be signed with the ROT
key before the platform's NV counter could be updated with the value
in the certificate.  This implies that the Non-Trusted NV counter was
not being updated for Non-Trusted content certificates, as they cannot
be signed with the ROT key in the TBBR CoT scheme.

The code is reworked to only allow updating the platform's Trusted NV
counter when a certificate protected by the Trusted NV counter is
signed with the ROT key.

Content certificates protected by the Non-Trusted NV counter are
allowed to update the platform's Non-Trusted NV counter, assuming
that the certificate value is higher than the platform's value.

A new optional platform API has been introduced, named
plat_set_nv_ctr2().  Platforms may choose to implement it and perform
additional checks based on the authentication image descriptor before
modifying the NV counters.  A default weak implementation is available
that just calls into plat_set_nv_ctr().

The API description currently states that interrupt handlers
(interrupt_type_handler_t pointers) SHOULD return a pointer
to the target cpu_context.

This patch rewords the description of the interrupts handlers to state
that it MUST return a pointer to the target security context. It also
warns about potential portability issue. Specifically, this pointer is
not used on AArch64 and calls to context library APIs must be used to
ask BL31 to return to a specific context. However, this could change in
the future and interrupt handlers must always return the pointer.

The user guide incorrectly claimed that it is possible to load a
bootwrapped kernel over JTAG on Juno in the same manner as an EL3
payload. In the EL3 payload boot flow, some of the platform
initialisations in BL2 are modified. In particular, the TZC settings
are modified to allow unrestricted access to DRAM. This in turn allows
the debugger to access the DRAM and therefore to load the image there.

In the BL33-preloaded boot flow though, BL2 uses the default TZC
programming, which prevent access to most of the DRAM from secure state.
When execution reaches the SPIN_ON_BL1_EXIT loop, the MMU is disabled
and thus DS-5 presumably issues secure access transactions while trying
to load the image, which fails.

One way around it is to stop execution at the end of BL2 instead. At
this point, the MMU is still enabled and the DRAM is mapped as
non-secure memory. Therefore, the debugger is allowed to access this
memory in this context and to sucessfully load the bootwrapped kernel in
DRAM. The user guide is updated to suggest this alternative method.

This patch adds capability to load BL images based on image
descriptors instead of hard coded way of loading BL images.
This framework is designed such that it can be readily adapted
by any BL stage that needs to load images.

In order to provide the above capability the following new
platform functions are introduced:

  bl_load_info_t *plat_get_bl_image_load_info(void);
    This function returns pointer to the list of images that the
    platform has populated to load.

  bl_params_t *plat_get_next_bl_params(void);
    This function returns a pointer to the shared memory that the
    platform has kept aside to pass trusted firmware related
    information that next BL image needs.

  void plat_flush_next_bl_params(void);
    This function flushes to main memory all the params that
    are passed to next image.

  int bl2_plat_handle_post_image_load(unsigned int image_id)
    This function can be used by the platforms to update/use
    image information for given `image_id`.

`desc_image_load.c` contains utility functions which can be used
by the platforms to generate, load and executable, image list
based on the registered image descriptors.

This patch also adds new version of `load_image/load_auth_image`
functions in-order to achieve the above capability.

Following are the changes for the new version as compared to old:
  - Refactor the signature and only keep image_id and image_info_t
    arguments. Removed image_base argument as it is already passed
    through image_info_t. Given that the BL image base addresses and
    limit/size are already provided by the platforms, the meminfo_t
    and entry_point_info arguments are not needed to provide/reserve
    the extent of free memory for the given BL image.

  - Added check for the image size against the defined max size.
    This is needed because the image size could come from an
    unauthenticated source (e.g. the FIP header).
    To make this check, new member is added to the image_info_t
    struct for identifying the image maximum size.

New flag `LOAD_IMAGE_V2` is added in the Makefile.
Default value is 0.

NOTE: `TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT` is currently not supported when
      `LOAD_IMAGE_V2` is enabled.

fiptool provides a more consistent and intuitive interface compared to
the fip_create program.  It serves as a better base to build on more
features in the future.

fiptool supports various subcommands.  Below are the currently
supported subcommands:

1) info   - List the images contained in a FIP file.
2) create - Create a new FIP file with the given images.
3) update - Update an existing FIP with the given images.
4) unpack - Extract a selected set or all the images from a FIP file.
5) remove - Remove images from a FIP file.  This is a new command that
   was not present in fip_create.

To create a new FIP file, replace "fip_create" with "fiptool create".

To update a FIP file, replace "fip_create" with "fiptool update".

To dump the contents of a FIP file, replace "fip_create --dump" with
"fiptool info".

A compatibility script that emulates the basic functionality of
fip_create is provided.  Existing scripts might or might not work with
the compatibility script.  Users are strongly encouraged to migrate to
fiptool.
