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.

This patch adds changes in ARM platform code to use new version of image loading. Following are the major changes: -Refactor the signatures for bl31_early_platform_setup() and arm_bl31_early_platform_setup() function to use `void *` instead of `bl31_params_t *`. -Introduce `plat_arm_bl2_handle_scp_bl2()` to handle loading of SCP_BL2 image from BL2. -Remove usage of reserve_mem() function from `arm_bl1_early_platform_setup()` -Extract BL32 & BL33 entrypoint info, from the link list passed by BL2, in `arm_bl31_early_platform_setup()` -Provides weak definitions for following platform functions: plat_get_bl_image_load_info plat_get_next_bl_params plat_flush_next_bl_params bl2_plat_handle_post_image_load -Instantiates a descriptor array for ARM platforms describing image and entrypoint information for `SCP_BL2`, `BL31`, `BL32` and `BL33` images. All the above changes are conditionally compiled using the `LOAD_IMAGE_V2` flag. Change-Id: I5e88b9785a3df1a2b2bbbb37d85b8e353ca61049

This patch replaces all references to the SCP Firmware (BL0, BL30, BL3-0, bl30) with the image terminology detailed in the TF wiki (https://github.com/ARM-software/arm-trusted-firmware/wiki): BL0 --> SCP_BL1 BL30, BL3-0 --> SCP_BL2 bl30 --> scp_bl2 This change affects code, documentation, build system, tools and platform ports that load SCP firmware. ARM plaforms have been updated to the new porting API. IMPORTANT: build option to specify the SCP FW image has changed: BL30 --> SCP_BL2 IMPORTANT: This patch breaks compatibility for platforms that use BL2 to load SCP firmware. Affected platforms must be updated as follows: BL30_IMAGE_ID --> SCP_BL2_IMAGE_ID BL30_BASE --> SCP_BL2_BASE bl2_plat_get_bl30_meminfo() --> bl2_plat_get_scp_bl2_meminfo() bl2_plat_handle_bl30() --> bl2_plat_handle_scp_bl2() Change-Id: I24c4c1a4f0e4b9f17c9e4929da815c4069549e58

This patch adds support for booting EL3 payloads on CSS platforms, for example Juno. In this scenario, the Trusted Firmware follows its normal boot flow up to the point where it would normally pass control to the BL31 image. At this point, it jumps to the EL3 payload entry point address instead. Before handing over to the EL3 payload, the data SCP writes for AP at the beginning of the Trusted SRAM is restored, i.e. we zero the first 128 bytes and restore the SCP Boot configuration. The latter is saved before transferring the BL30 image to SCP and is restored just after the transfer (in BL2). The goal is to make it appear that the EL3 payload is the first piece of software to run on the target. The BL31 entrypoint info structure is updated to make the primary CPU jump to the EL3 payload instead of the BL31 image. The mailbox is populated with the EL3 payload entrypoint address, which releases the secondary CPUs out of their holding pen (if the SCP has powered them on). The arm_program_trusted_mailbox() function has been exported for this purpose. The TZC-400 configuration in BL2 is simplified: it grants secure access only to the whole DRAM. Other security initialization is unchanged. This alternative boot flow is disabled by default. A new build option EL3_PAYLOAD_BASE has been introduced to enable it and provide the EL3 payload's entry point address. The build system has been modified such that BL31 and BL33 are not compiled and/or not put in the FIP in this case, as those images are not used in this boot flow.

The communication protocol used between the AP cores and the SCP in CSS-based platforms like Juno has undergone a number of changes. This patch makes the required modifications to the SCP Boot Protocol, SCPI Protocol and MHU driver code in shared CSS platform code so that the AP cores are still able to communicate with the SCP. This patch focuses on the mandatory changes to make it work. The design of this code needs to be improved but this will come in a subsequent patch. The main changes are: - MHU communication protocol - The command ID and payload size are no longer written into the MHU registers directly. Instead, they are stored in the payload area. The MHU registers are now used only as a doorbell to kick off messages. Same goes for any command result, the AP has to pick it up from the payload area. - SCP Boot Protocol - The BL3-0 image is now expected to embed a checksum. This checksum must be passed to the SCP, which uses it to check the integrity of the image it received. - The BL3-0 image used to be transferred a block (4KB) at a time. The SCP now supports receiving up to 128KB at a time, which is more than the size of the BL3-0 image. Therefore, the image is now sent in one go. - The command IDs have changed. - SCPI Protocol - The size of the SCPI payload has been reduced down from 512 bytes to 256 bytes. This changes the base address of the AP-to-SCP payload area. - For commands that have a response, the response is the same SCPI header that was sent, except for the size and the status, which both must be updated appropriately. Success/Failure of a command is determined by looking at the updated status code. - Some command IDs have changed. NOTE: THIS PATCH BREAKS COMPATIBILITY WITH FORMER VERSIONS OF THE SCP FIRMWARE AND THUS REQUIRES AN UPDATE OF THIS BINARY. THE LATEST SCP BINARY CAN BE OBTAINED FROM THE ARM CONNECTED COMMUNITY WEBSITE. Change-Id: Ia5f6b95fe32401ee04a3805035748e8ef6718da7

This major change pulls out the common functionality from the FVP and Juno platform ports into the following categories: * (include/)plat/common. Common platform porting functionality that typically may be used by all platforms. * (include/)plat/arm/common. Common platform porting functionality that may be used by all ARM standard platforms. This includes all ARM development platforms like FVP and Juno but may also include non-ARM-owned platforms. * (include/)plat/arm/board/common. Common platform porting functionality for ARM development platforms at the board (off SoC) level. * (include/)plat/arm/css/common. Common platform porting functionality at the ARM Compute SubSystem (CSS) level. Juno is an example of a CSS-based platform. * (include/)plat/arm/soc/common. Common platform porting functionality at the ARM SoC level, which is not already defined at the ARM CSS level. No guarantees are made about the backward compatibility of functionality provided in (include/)plat/arm. Also remove any unnecessary variation between the ARM development platform ports, including: * Unify the way BL2 passes `bl31_params_t` to BL3-1. Use the Juno implementation, which copies the information from BL2 memory instead of expecting it to persist in shared memory. * Unify the TZC configuration. There is no need to add a region for SCP in Juno; it's enough to simply not allow any access to this reserved region. Also set region 0 to provide no access by default instead of assuming this is the case. * Unify the number of memory map regions required for ARM development platforms, although the actual ranges mapped for each platform may be different. For the FVP port, this reduces the mapped peripheral address space. These latter changes will only be observed when the platform ports are migrated to use the new common platform code in subsequent patches. Change-Id: Id9c269dd3dc6e74533d0e5116fdd826d53946dc8

* Move TSP platform porting functions to new file: include/bl32/tsp/platform_tsp.h. * Create new TSP_IRQ_SEC_PHY_TIMER definition for use by the generic TSP interrupt handling code, instead of depending on the FVP specific definition IRQ_SEC_PHY_TIMER. * Rename TSP platform porting functions from bl32_* to tsp_*, and definitions from BL32_* to TSP_*. * Update generic TSP code to use new platform porting function names and definitions. * Update FVP port accordingly and move all TSP source files to: plat/fvp/tsp/. * Update porting guide with above changes. Note: THIS CHANGE REQUIRES ALL PLATFORM PORTS OF THE TSP TO BE UPDATED Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#167 Change-Id: Ic0ff8caf72aebb378d378193d2f017599fc6b78f

Reduce the number of header files included from other header files as much as possible without splitting the files. Use forward declarations where possible. This allows removal of some unnecessary "#ifndef __ASSEMBLY__" statements. Also, review the .c and .S files for which header files really need including and reorder the #include statements alphabetically. Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#31 Change-Id: Iec92fb976334c77453e010b60bcf56f3be72bd3e
