      Remove `ns_entrypoint` and `mpidr` from parameters in pm_ops · e146f4cc
      Soby Mathew authored
      This patch removes the non-secure entry point information being passed
      to the platform pm_ops which is not needed. Also, it removes the `mpidr`
      parameter for  platform pm hooks which are meant to do power management
      operations only on the current cpu.
      
      NOTE: PLATFORM PORTS MUST BE UPDATED AFTER MERGING THIS COMMIT.

      This patch extends the build option `USE_COHERENT_MEMORY` to
      conditionally remove coherent memory from the memory maps of
      all boot loader stages. The patch also adds necessary
      documentation for coherent memory removal in firmware-design,
      porting and user guides.

      Move bakery algorithm implementation out of coherent memory · 8c5fe0b5
      Soby Mathew authored
      This patch moves the bakery locks out of coherent memory to normal memory.
      This implies that the lock information needs to be placed on a separate cache
      line for each cpu. Hence the bakery_lock_info_t structure is allocated in the
      per-cpu data so as to minimize memory wastage. A similar platform per-cpu
      data is introduced for the platform locks.
      
      As a result of the above changes, the bakery lock api is completely changed.
      Earlier, a reference to the lock structure was passed to the lock implementation.
      Now a unique-id (essentially an index into the per-cpu data array) and an offset
      into the per-cpu data for bakery_info_t needs to be passed to the lock
      implementation.

      Remove BSS section access by 'plat_print_gic' during crash reporting · 6ab03912
      Soby Mathew authored
      This patch avoids the problem of crash reporting mechanism accessing
      global data in BSS by 'plat_print_gic_regs' for FVP platforms. Earlier
      it depended on the global 'plat_config' object for the GIC Base address
      in FVP platforms which would have caused exception if it were accessed
      before the BSS was initialized. It is now fixed by dynamically
      querying the V2M_SYS_ID to find the FVP model type and accordingly
      selecting the appropriate GIC Base address.
      
      This patch also fixes the 'plat_print_gic_regs' to use the correct GIC
      Distributor base address for printing GICD_IS_PENDR register values
      for both Juno and FVP platforms.

      Rationalize UART usage among different BL stages · 12d554f9

      This patch changes the UART port assignment for various BL stages
      so as to make it consistent on the platform ports. The BL1, BL2 and
      BL3-1 now uses UART0 on the FVP port and SoC UART0 on the Juno port.
      The BL3-2 uses UART2 on the FVP port and FPGA UART0 on the Juno
      port.
      
      This provides an interim fix to ARM-software/tf-issues#220 until

      Add CPU specific power management operations · add40351

      This patch adds CPU core and cluster power down sequences to the CPU specific
      operations framework introduced in a earlier patch. Cortex-A53, Cortex-A57 and
      generic AEM sequences have been added. The latter is suitable for the
      Foundation and Base AEM FVPs. A pointer to each CPU's operations structure is
      saved in the per-cpu data so that it can be easily accessed during power down
      seqeunces.
      
      An optional platform API has been introduced to allow a platform to disable the
      Accelerator Coherency Port (ACP) during a cluster power down sequence. The weak
      definition of this function (plat_disable_acp()) does not take any action. It
      should be overriden with a strong definition if the ACP is present on a
      platform.

      Rework use of labels in assembly macros. · aecc0840
      Soby Mathew authored
      This patch provides a workaround for the ASM_ASSERT label issue
      and also reworks the use of labels in assembly macros.
      If the caller of the ASM_ASSERT macro happened to use the
      label '1' to jump past the ASM_ASSERT macro, it would not have
      worked since the ASM_ASSERT macro internally used the same label.
      Hence, as a workaround, this patch makes the label a high
      number in the expectation that the caller will never use it.
      
      Also updated the other assembly macros using numerical labels to
      named lables.

      fvp: Rework when platform actions are performed · 7d2ccfd7
      Achin Gupta authored
      This patch reworks FVP port's power management implementation to perform
      platform actions only when the platform exported hook is invoked for the highest
      affinity level to enter/exit the OFF state.
      
      For example, during a CPU_OFF operation, fvp_affinst_off() is called twice: for
      affinity level 0 and affinity level 1 (in that order). CPU specific operations
      are deferred until the next invocation if it is determined through a call to
      psci_get_max_phys_off_afflvl() that this is CPU is the last in the cluster.
      
      Similarly, during power up if the CPU is the first in the cluster, both CPU and
      cluster specific operations are performed when fvp_affinst_on_finish() is
      invoked for affinity level 1. Earlier, they were done across the two invocations
      of the handler.

      Add support for PSCI SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET APIs · d5f13093
      Juan Castillo authored
      This patch adds support for SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET PSCI
      operations. A platform should export handlers to complete the
      requested operation. The FVP port exports fvp_system_off() and
      fvp_system_reset() as an example.
      
      If the SPD provides a power management hook for system off and
      system reset, then the SPD is notified about the corresponding
      operation so it can do some bookkeeping. The TSPD exports
      tspd_system_off() and tspd_system_reset() for that purpose.
      
      Versatile Express shutdown and reset methods have been removed
      from the FDT as new PSCI sys_poweroff and sys_reset services
      have been added. For those kernels that do not support yet these
      PSCI services (i.e. GICv3 kernel), the original dtsi files have
      been renamed to *-no_psci.dtsi.

      Simplify interface to TZC-400 driver · 3279f625

      The TZC-400 driver previously allowed the possibility of multiple

      Remove redundant io_init() function · 6d16ce0b
      Dan Handley authored
      The intent of io_init() was to allow platform ports to provide
      a data object (io_plat_data_t) to the IO storage framework to
      allocate into. The abstraction was incomplete because io_plat_data_t
      uses a platform defined constant and the IO storage framework
      internally allocates other arrays using platform defined constants.
      
      This change simplifies the implementation by instantiating the
      supporting objects in the IO storage framework itself. There is now
      no need for the platform to call io_init().
      
      The FVP port has been updated accordingly.

      Rework the TSPD setup code · 50e27dad
      Vikram Kanigiri authored
      There is no mechanism which allows the TSPD to specify what SPSR to

      responsibility between tspd_setup() and tspd_init() for initializing
      the TSPD and TSP to support the alternate BL3-2 initialization flow
      where BL3-1 handsover control to BL3-2 instead of BL3-3.
      SPSR generated by TSPD for TSP is preserved due the new division of

      Call platform_is_primary_cpu() only from reset handler · 53fdcebd
      Juan Castillo authored
      The purpose of platform_is_primary_cpu() is to determine after reset
      (BL1 or BL3-1 with reset handler) if the current CPU must follow the
      cold boot path (primary CPU), or wait in a safe state (secondary CPU)
      until the primary CPU has finished the system initialization.
      
      This patch removes redundant calls to platform_is_primary_cpu() in
      subsequent bootloader entrypoints since the reset handler already
      guarantees that code is executed exclusively on the primary CPU.
      
      Additionally, this patch removes the weak definition of
      platform_is_primary_cpu(), so the implementation of this function
      becomes mandatory. Removing the weak symbol avoids other
      bootloaders accidentally picking up an invalid definition in case the
      porting layer makes the real function available only to BL1.
      
      The define PRIMARY_CPU is no longer mandatory in the platform porting
      because platform_is_primary_cpu() hides the implementation details
      (for instance, there may be platforms that report the primary CPU in
      a system register). The primary CPU definition in FVP has been moved
      to fvp_def.h.
      
      The porting guide has been updated accordingly.

      Rework the crash reporting in BL3-1 to use less stack · 626ed510
      Soby Mathew authored
      This patch reworks the crash reporting mechanism to further
      optimise the stack and code size. The reporting makes use
      of assembly console functions to avoid calling C Runtime
      to report the CPU state. The crash buffer requirement is
      reduced to 64 bytes with this implementation. The crash
      buffer is now part of per-cpu data which makes retrieving
      the crash buffer trivial.
      
      Also now panic() will use crash reporting if
      invoked from BL3-1.

      Introduce crash console APIs for crash reporting · c67b09bd
      Soby Mathew authored
      This patch introduces platform APIs to initialise and
      print a character on a designated crash console.
      For the FVP platform, PL011_UART0 is the designated
      crash console. The platform porting guide is also updated
      to document the new APIs.

      This patch adds a 'flags' parameter to each exception level specific function
      responsible for enabling the MMU. At present only a single flag which indicates
      whether the data cache should also be enabled is implemented. Subsequent patches
      will use this flag when enabling the MMU in the warm boot paths.

      Define ARM_GIC_ARCH default value for all platforms · 2b98e789
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      The ARM_GIC_ARCH build option was supposed to default to 2 on all
      platforms. However, the default value was set in the FVP makefile
      so for all other platforms it wasn't even defined.
      
      This patch moves the default value to the main Makefile. The platform
      port can then override it if needed.

      FVP: Ensure system reset wake-up results in cold boot · 08783e43
      Juan Castillo authored
      platform_get_entrypoint() did not consider that a wakeup due to
      System Reset Pin (by reading the power controller's PSYSR) requires
      a cold boot. As a result, the code would execute the warm boot path
      and eventually panic because entrypoint mailboxes are empty.
      
      This patch ensures that the following wake-up reasons result in cold
      boot:
        - Cold Power-on
        - System Reset Pin (includes reset by software)

      fvp: Reuse BL1 and BL2 memory through image overlaying · a1b6db6c
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      This patch re-organizes the memory layout on FVP as to give the
      BL3-2 image as much memory as possible.
      
      Considering these two facts:
       - not all images need to live in memory at the same time. Once
         in BL3-1, the memory used by BL1 and BL2 can be reclaimed.
       - when BL2 loads the BL3-1 and BL3-2 images, it only considers the
         PROGBITS sections of those 2 images. The memory occupied by the
         NOBITS sections will be touched only at execution of the BL3-x
         images;
      Then it is possible to choose the different base addresses such that
      the NOBITS sections of BL3-1 and BL3-2 overlay BL1 and BL2.
      
      On FVP we choose to put:
       - BL1 and BL3-1 at the top of the Trusted RAM, with BL3-1 NOBITS
         sections overlaying BL1;
       - BL3-2 at the bottom of the Trusted RAM, with its NOBITS sections
         overlaying BL2;
      
      This is illustrated by the following diagram:
      
      0x0404_0000 ------------    ------------------
                  |   BL1    | <= |  BL3-1 NOBITS  |
                  ------------ <= ------------------
                  |          | <= | BL3-1 PROGBITS |
                  ------------    ------------------
                  |   BL2    | <= |  BL3-2 NOBITS  |
                  ------------ <= ------------------
                  |          | <= | BL3-2 PROGBITS |
      0x0400_0000 ------------    ------------------
      
      New platform-specific constants have been introduced to easily check
      at link time that BL3-1 and BL3-2 PROGBITS sections don't overwrite
      BL1 and BL2. These are optional and the platform code is free to define
      them or not. If not defined, the linker won't attempt to check
      image overlaying.

      Refactor fvp gic code to be a generic driver · 1e8c5c4f
      Dan Handley authored
      Refactor the FVP gic code in plat/fvp/fvp_gic.c to be a generic ARM
      GIC driver in drivers/arm/gic/arm_gic.c. Provide the platform
      specific inputs in the arm_gic_setup() function so that the driver
      has no explicit dependency on platform code.
      
      Provide weak implementations of the platform interrupt controller
      API in a new file, plat/common/plat_gic.c. These simply call through
      to the ARM GIC driver.
      
      Move the only remaining FVP GIC function, fvp_gic_init() to

      Changed the fvp_config array in fvp_common.c into a struct and

      in fvp_def.h and updated all references to the platform config.
      
      This makes the interface to the platform config cleaner and uses

      fvp: Properly detect the location of BL1 R/W data · 60633799
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      There was already a rudimentary mechanism to detect whether BL1
      R/W data was loaded at the top or bottom of memory. Basically,
       - either BL1 was loaded at the very end of the trusted RAM
       - in all other cases BL1 was considered sitting at the bottom of
         the memory and the memory usage structure was updated accordingly,
         potentially resulting in critical memory waste.
      For instance, if BL1 R/W base address was set to
      (TZRAM_END - 4096 - bl1_size), it would virtually occupy the whole
      memory.
      
      This patch improves the mechanism to detect the location of BL1
      to avoid such scenarios.
