      cot-desc: optimise memory further · 30070427
      Joel Hutton authored 
      

This changes the auth_img_desc_t struct to have pointers to struct
arrays instead of struct arrays. This saves memory as many of these
were never used, and can be NULL pointers. Note the memory savings are
only when these arrays are not initialised, as it is assumed these
arrays are fixed length. A possible future optimisation could allow for
variable length.

      Reduce memory needed for CoT description · 0b6377d1
      Joel Hutton authored 
      

When Trusted Board Boot is enabled, we need to specify the Chain of
Trust (CoT) of the BL1 and BL2 images. A CoT consists of an array
of image descriptors. The authentication module assumes that each
image descriptor in this array is indexed by its unique image
identifier. For example, the Trusted Boot Firmware Certificate has to
be at index [TRUSTED_BOOT_FW_CERT_ID].

Unique image identifiers may not necessarily be consecutive. Also,
a given BL image might not use all image descriptors. For example, BL1
does not need any of the descriptors related to BL31. As a result, the
CoT array might contain holes, which unnecessarily takes up space in
the BL binary.

Using pointers to auth_img_desc_t structs (rather than structs
themselves) means these unused elements only use 1 pointer worth of
space, rather than one struct worth of space. This patch also changes
the code which accesses this array to reflect the change to pointers.

Image descriptors not needed in BL1 or BL2 respectively are also
ifdef'd out in this patch. For example, verifying the BL31 image is
the responsibility of BL2 so BL1 does not need any of the data
structures describing BL31.

      doc: Fix heading levels for changelog · c48991e1
      Paul Beesley authored 
      

The change-log.rst file does not use the same symbols
as the other documents when organising its headings,
sub-headings and so on. In order to compile these
documents together with Sphinx, forming a top-level
index and a consistent structure, it is necessary to
normalise these.
