Platform may use specific cache line sizes. Since CACHE_WRITEBACK_GRANULE defines the platform specific cache line size, it is used to define the size of the cpu data structure CPU_DATA_SIZE aligned on cache line size. Introduce assembly macro 'mov_imm' for AArch32 to simplify implementation of function '_cpu_data_by_index'.

Add Call Frame Information assembler directives to vector entries so that debuggers display the backtrace of functions that triggered a synchronous exception. For example, a function triggering a data abort will be easier to debug if the backtrace can be displayed from a breakpoint at the beginning of the synchronous exception vector. DS-5 needs CFI otherwise it will not attempt to display the backtrace. Other debuggers might have other needs. These debug information are stored in the ELF file but not in the final binary.

Assembly routines are usually defined by using "func" and "endfunc": func foo ... endfunc foo Currently, the "func" macro does not specify ".align" directive by default. It causes unaligned instruction under some circumstances. As far as I tested, this problem happens for GCC 5 or older. It did not happen for GCC 6 or newer. Taking into account that GCC 4.x / 5.x is still used, make sure that assembly code is at least 4 byte aligned. [ How to reproduce the problem ] For example, use GCC 5.3 downloaded from Linaro: http://releases.linaro.org/components/toolchain/binaries/5.3-2016.05/ aarch64-linux-gnu/gcc-linaro-5.3.1-2016.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu.tar.xz Expand mbedtls-2.4.2 to the current directory. Try the following: $ git log --oneline -1 77544efb Merge pull request #1071 from jeenu-arm/syntax-fix $ aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc --version | head -1 aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc (Linaro GCC 5.3-2016.05) 5.3.1 20160412 $ make CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- PLAT=uniphier \ TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT=1 MBEDTLS_DIR=mbedtls-2.4.2 ( snip build log ) $ aarch64-linux-gnu-nm build/uniphier/release/bl1/bl1.elf | grep handler 00000000800088f4 T bl1_fwu_smc_handler 00000000800084c8 T bl1_smc_handler 000000008000a6e0 t _panic_handler 000000008000a8e0 W plat_error_handler 000000008000a8e8 W plat_panic_handler 000000008000a8d8 W plat_reset_handler 000000008000a39f T reset_handler 000000008000a367 t smc_handler 000000008000a2ef t smc_handler64 You will notice "smc_handler64", "reset_handler", etc. are not properly aligned.

Assembler programmers are used to being able to define functions with a specific aligment with a pattern like this: .align X myfunction: However, this pattern is subtly broken when instead of a direct label like 'myfunction:', you use the 'func myfunction' macro that's standard in Trusted Firmware. Since the func macro declares a new section for the function, the .align directive written above it actually applies to the *previous* section in the assembly file, and the function it was supposed to apply to is linked with default alignment. An extreme case can be seen in Rockchip's plat_helpers.S which contains this code: [...] endfunc plat_crash_console_putc .align 16 func platform_cpu_warmboot [...] This assembles into the following plat_helpers.o: Sections: Idx Name Size [...] Algn 9 .text.plat_crash_console_putc 00010000 [...] 2**16 10 .text.platform_cpu_warmboot 00000080 [...] 2**3 As can be seen, the *previous* function actually got the alignment constraint, and it is also 64KB big even though it contains only two instructions, because the .align directive at the end of its section forces the assembler to insert a giant sled of NOPs. The function we actually wanted to align has the default constraint. This code only works at all because the linker just happens to put the two functions right behind each other when linking the final image, and since the end of plat_crash_console_putc is aligned the start of platform_cpu_warmboot will also be. But it still wastes almost 64KB of image space unnecessarily, and it will break under certain circumstances (e.g. if the plat_crash_console_putc function becomes unused and its section gets garbage-collected out). There's no real way to fix this with the existing func macro. Code like func myfunc .align X happens to do the right thing, but is still not really correct code (because the function label is inserted before the .align directive, so the assembler is technically allowed to insert padding at the beginning of the function which would then get executed as instructions if the function was called). Therefore, this patch adds a new parameter with a default value to the func macro that allows overriding its alignment. Also fix up all existing instances of this dangerous antipattern.

This patch updates the el3_arch_init_common macro so that it fully initialises essential control registers rather then relying on hardware to set the reset values. The context management functions are also updated to fully initialise the appropriate control registers when initialising the non-secure and secure context structures and when preparing to leave EL3 for a lower EL. This gives better alignement with the ARM ARM which states that software must initialise RES0 and RES1 fields with 0 / 1. This patch also corrects the following typos: "NASCR definitions" -> "NSACR definitions" Change-Id: Ia8940b8351dc27bc09e2138b011e249655041cfc Signed-off-by: David Cunado <david.cunado@arm.com>

Some header files need to be shared between TF and host programs. For fiptool, two headers are copied to the tools/fiptool directory, but it looks clumsy. This commit introduces a new directory, include/tools_share, which collects headers that should be shared between TF and host programs. This will clarify the interface exposed to host tools. We should add new headers to this directory only when we really need to do so. For clarification, I inserted a blank line between headers from the include/ directory (#include <...>) and ones from a local directory (#include "..." ).

utils.h is included in various header files for the defines in it. Some of the other header files only contain defines. This allows the header files to be shared between host and target builds for shared defines. Recently types.h has been included in utils.h as well as some function prototypes. Because of the inclusion of types.h conflicts exist building host tools abd these header files now. To solve this problem, move the defines to utils_def.h and have this included by utils.h and change header files to only include utils_def.h and not pick up the new types.h being introduced.

Introduce new build option ENABLE_STACK_PROTECTOR. It enables compilation of all BL images with one of the GCC -fstack-protector-* options. A new platform function plat_get_stack_protector_canary() is introduced. It returns a value that is used to initialize the canary for stack corruption detection. Returning a random value will prevent an attacker from predicting the value and greatly increase the effectiveness of the protection. A message is printed at the ERROR level when a stack corruption is detected. To be effective, the global data must be stored at an address lower than the base of the stacks. Failure to do so would allow an attacker to overwrite the canary as part of an attack which would void the protection. FVP implementation of plat_get_stack_protector_canary is weak as there is no real source of entropy on the FVP. It therefore relies on a timer's value, which could be predictable.

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.

One nasty part of ATF is some of boolean macros are always defined as 1 or 0, and the rest of them are only defined under certain conditions. For the former group, "#if FOO" or "#if !FOO" must be used because "#ifdef FOO" is always true. (Options passed by $(call add_define,) are the cases.) For the latter, "#ifdef FOO" or "#ifndef FOO" should be used because checking the value of an undefined macro is strange. Here, IMAGE_BL* is handled by make_helpers/build_macro.mk like follows: $(eval IMAGE := IMAGE_BL$(call uppercase,$(3))) $(OBJ): $(2) @echo " CC $$<" $$(Q)$$(CC) $$(TF_CFLAGS) $$(CFLAGS) -D$(IMAGE) -c $$< -o $$@ This means, IMAGE_BL* is defined when building the corresponding image, but *undefined* for the other images. So, IMAGE_BL* belongs to the latter group where we should use #ifdef or #ifndef. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

There are many instances in ARM Trusted Firmware where control is transferred to functions from which return isn't expected. Such jumps are made using 'bl' instruction to provide the callee with the location from which it was jumped to. Additionally, debuggers infer the caller by examining where 'lr' register points to. If a 'bl' of the nature described above falls at the end of an assembly function, 'lr' will be left pointing to a location outside of the function range. This misleads the debugger back trace. This patch defines a 'no_ret' macro to be used when jumping to functions from which return isn't expected. The macro ensures to use 'bl' instruction for the jump, and also, for debug builds, places a 'nop' instruction immediately thereafter (unless instructed otherwise) so as to leave 'lr' pointing within the function range.

This patch resets EL2 and EL3 registers that have architecturally UNKNOWN values on reset and that also provide EL2/EL3 configuration and trap controls. Specifically, the EL2 physical timer is disabled to prevent timer interrups into EL2 - CNTHP_CTL_EL2 and CNTHP_CTL for AArch64 and AArch32, respectively. Additionally, for AArch64, HSTR_EL2 is reset to avoid unexpected traps of non-secure access to certain system registers at EL1 or lower. For AArch32, the patch also reverts the reset to SDCR which was incorrectly added in a previous change.

This allows the debugger to print the callstack when there is an assembly function in the callstack. It will work as long as the CFA pointer (frame pointer) location is not modified (i.e. x29 is not touched in AArch64 state). It is the case in almost all assembly functions, so this patch improves the average debugging experience. Call stacks from the debugger should still be interpreted with care. In more complex functions, one could use .cfi* directives to inform the debugger about the new location of the CFA pointer.

At present the `el3_entrypoint_common` macro uses `memcpy` function defined in lib/stdlib/mem.c file, to copy data from ROM to RAM for BL1. Depending on the compiler being used the stack could potentially be used, in `memcpy`, for storing the local variables. Since the stack is initialized much later in `el3_entrypoint_common` it may result in unknown behaviour. This patch adds `memcpy4` function definition in assembly so that it can be used before the stack is initialized and it also replaces `memcpy` by `memcpy4` in `el3_entrypoint_common` macro, to copy data from ROM to RAM for BL1.

This patch introduces a `psci_lib_args_t` structure which must be passed into `psci_setup()` which is then used to initialize the PSCI library. The `psci_lib_args_t` is a versioned structure so as to enable compatibility checks during library initialization. Both BL31 and SP_MIN are modified to use the new structure. SP_MIN is also modified to add version string and build message as part of its cold boot log just like the other BLs in Trusted Firmware. NOTE: Please be aware that this patch modifies the prototype of `psci_setup()`, which breaks compatibility with EL3 Runtime Firmware (excluding BL31 and SP_MIN) integrated with the PSCI Library.

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. Change-Id: Ia7b643f4817a170d5a2fbf479b9bc12e63112e79

This patch adds an API in runtime service framework to invoke the registered handler corresponding to the SMC function identifier. This is helpful for AArch32 because the number of arguments required by the handler is more than registers available as per AArch32 program calling conventions and requires the use of stack. Hence this new API will do the necessary argument setup and invoke the appropriate handler. Although this API is primarily intended for AArch32, it can be used for AArch64 as well.

This functionality is now consolidated by the PSCI library and it does Architectural initialization via psci_arch_setup() during both cold and warm boots. * Earlier the warm boot entry point was always `psci_entrypoint()`. This was not flexible enough as a library interface. Now PSCI expects the runtime firmware to provide the entry point via `psci_setup()`. A new function `bl31_warm_entrypoint` is introduced in BL31 and the previous `psci_entrypoint()` is deprecated. * The `smc_helpers.h` is reorganized to separate the SMC Calling Convention defines from the Trusted Firmware SMC helpers. The former is now in a new header file `smcc.h` and the SMC helpers are moved to Architecture specific header. * The CPU context is used by PSCI for context initialization and restoration after power down (PSCI Context). It is also used by BL31 for SMC handling and context management during Normal-Secure world switch (SMC Context). The `psci_smc_handler()` interface is redefined to not use SMC helper macros thus enabling to decouple the PSCI context from EL3 runtime firmware SMC context. This enables PSCI to be integrated with other runtime firmware using a different SMC context. NOTE: With this patch the architectural setup done in `bl31_arch_setup()` is done as part of `psci_setup()` and hence `bl31_platform_setup()` will be invoked prior to architectural setup. It is highly unlikely that the platform setup will depend on architectural setup and cause any failure. Please be be aware of this change in sequence.

This patch moves the PSCI services and BL31 frameworks like context management and per-cpu data into new library components `PSCI` and `el3_runtime` respectively. This enables PSCI to be built independently from BL31. A new `psci_lib.mk` makefile is introduced which adds the relevant PSCI library sources and gets included by `bl31.mk`. Other changes which are done as part of this patch are: * The runtime services framework is now moved to the `common/` folder to enable reuse. * The `asm_macros.S` and `assert_macros.S` helpers are moved to architecture specific folder. * The `plat_psci_common.c` is moved from the `plat/common/aarch64/` folder to `plat/common` folder. The original file location now has a stub which just includes the file from new location to maintain platform compatibility. Most of the changes wouldn't affect platform builds as they just involve changes to the generic bl1.mk and bl31.mk makefiles. NOTE: THE `plat_psci_common.c` FILE HAS MOVED LOCATION AND THE STUB FILE AT THE ORIGINAL LOCATION IS NOW DEPRECATED. PLATFORMS SHOULD MODIFY THEIR MAKEFILES TO INCLUDE THE FILE FROM THE NEW LOCATION.

This patch reworks type usage in generic code, drivers and ARM platform files to make it more portable. The major changes done with respect to type usage are as listed below: * Use uintptr_t for storing address instead of uint64_t or unsigned long. * Review usage of unsigned long as it can no longer be assumed to be 64 bit. * Use u_register_t for register values whose width varies depending on whether AArch64 or AArch32. * Use generic C types where-ever possible. In addition to the above changes, this patch also modifies format specifiers in print invocations so that they are AArch64/AArch32 agnostic. Only files related to upcoming feature development have been reworked. Change-Id: I9f8c78347c5a52ba7027ff389791f1dad63ee5f8

At the moment, all BL images share a similar memory layout: they start with their code section, followed by their read-only data section. The two sections are contiguous in memory. Therefore, the end of the code section and the beginning of the read-only data one might share a memory page. This forces both to be mapped with the same memory attributes. As the code needs to be executable, this means that the read-only data stored on the same memory page as the code are executable as well. This could potentially be exploited as part of a security attack. This patch introduces a new build flag called SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA, which isolates the code and read-only data on separate memory pages. This in turn allows independent control of the access permissions for the code and read-only data. This has an impact on memory footprint, as padding bytes need to be introduced between the code and read-only data to ensure the segragation of the two. To limit the memory cost, the memory layout of the read-only section has been changed in this case. - When SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA=0, the layout is unchanged, i.e. the read-only section still looks like this (padding omitted): | ... | +-------------------+ | Exception vectors | +-------------------+ | Read-only data | +-------------------+ | Code | +-------------------+ BLx_BASE In this case, the linker script provides the limits of the whole read-only section. - When SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA=1, the exception vectors and read-only data are swapped, such that the code and exception vectors are contiguous, followed by the read-only data. This gives the following new layout (padding omitted): | ... | +-------------------+ | Read-only data | +-------------------+ | Exception vectors | +-------------------+ | Code | +-------------------+ BLx_BASE In this case, the linker script now exports 2 sets of addresses instead: the limits of the code and the limits of the read-only data. Refer to the Firmware Design guide for more details. This provides platform code with a finer-grained view of the image layout and allows it to map these 2 regions with the appropriate access permissions. Note that SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA applies to all BL images. Change-Id: I936cf80164f6b66b6ad52b8edacadc532c935a49

This patch introduces a new header file: include/lib/utils.h. Its purpose is to provide generic macros and helper functions that are independent of any BL image, architecture, platform and even not specific to Trusted Firmware. For now, it contains only 2 macros: ARRAY_SIZE() and IS_POWER_OF_TWO(). These were previously defined in bl_common.h and xlat_tables.c respectively. bl_common.h includes utils.h to retain compatibility for platforms that relied on bl_common.h for the ARRAY_SIZE() macro. Upstream platform ports that use this macro have been updated to include utils.h. Change-Id: I960450f54134f25d1710bfbdc4184f12c049a9a9
