This patch introduces a build option 'OVERRIDE_LIBC' that platforms
can set to override libc from the BL image. The default value is '0'
to keep the library.

This reverts commit 2f370465

 ("Add support for the SMC Calling
Convention 2.0").

SMCCC v2.0 is no longer required for SPM, and won't be needed in the
future. Removing it makes the SMC handling code less complicated.

The SPM implementation based on SPCI and SPRT was using it, but it has
been adapted to SMCCC v1.0.

This patch updates the user guide instructions for
RESET_TO_SP_MIN and RESET_TO_BL31 cases. The load
address for BL31 had to be updated because of increase
in code size. Also, information about PIE support when
RESET_TO_BL31=1 for FVP is added.

In the case of RESET_TO_SP_MIN, the RVBAR address
was wrong in the instruction. This is also corrected
in the patch.

as U-Boot.

Similar to AArch64 ARM_LINUX_KERNEL_AS_BL33 only available with
RESET_TO_SP_MIN=1 as well as BL33 and DTB are preloaded in memory.

This option makes it hard to optimize the memory definitions of all Arm
platforms because any change in the common defines must work in all of
them. The best thing to do is to remove it and move the definition to
each platform's header.

FVP, SGI and SGM were using the definitions in board_arm_def.h. The
definitions have been copied to each platform's platform_def.h. Juno
was already using the ones in platform_def.h, so there have been no
changes.

This function diplays the backtrace, the current EL and security state
to allow a post-processing tool to choose the right binary to interpret
the dump.

The output can be fed to GNU addr2line to resolve function names given
an ELF binary compiled with debug information. The "-i" flag is
recommended to improve display in case of inlined functions. The *.dump
files generated during the build process can also be used.

The function works in AArch64 and AArch32. In AArch32 it only works in
A32 mode (without T32 interworking), which is enforced in the Makefile.

Sample output of a backtrace at EL3:

    BACKTRACE: START: function_name
    0: EL3: 0x798
    1: EL3: 0x538
    2: EL3: 0x550
    3: EL3: 0x55c
    4: EL3: 0x568
    5: EL3: 0x5a8
    6: EL3: 0xf4
    BACKTRACE: END: function_name

In order to enable it the new option ENABLE_BACKTRACE must be set to 1.
This option is set to 1 by default only in AArch64 debug builds. As
usual, it can be overridden by the platform makefile and in the build
command line.

At the moment the AArch32 instruction set isn't specified in the command
line, which means that the compiler is free to choose the one it sees
fit. This decision may change between compiler versions, so it is better
to specify it manually.

The build option AARCH32_INSTRUCTION_SET has been introduced for this
reason. This option can be set to T32 or A32 to pass the correct flags
to the compiler.

The current behaviour is to default to T32 due to it's smaller size.

This patch fixes a bug in the context management code that causes it to
ignore the HANDLE_EA_EL3_FIRST compile-time option and instead always
configure SCR_EL3 to force all external aborts to trap into EL3. The
code used #ifdef to read compile-time option declared with add_define in
the Makefile... however, those options are always defined, they're just
defined to either 0 or 1, so #if is the correct syntax to check for
them. Also update the documentation to match.

This bug has existed since the Nov 2017 commit 76454abf

 (AArch64:
Introduce External Abort handling), which changed the
HANDLE_EA_EL3_FIRST option to use add_define.

Memory Partitioning And Monitoring is an Armv8.4 feature that enables
various memory system components and resources to define partitions.
Software running at various ELs can then assign themselves to the
desired partition to control their performance aspects.

With this patch, when ENABLE_MPAM_FOR_LOWER_ELS is set to 1, EL3 allows
lower ELs to access their own MPAM registers without trapping to EL3.
This patch however doesn't make use of partitioning in EL3; platform
initialisation code should configure and use partitions in EL3 if
required.

Having an active stack while enabling MMU has shown coherency problems.
This patch builds on top of translation library changes that introduces
MMU-enabling without using stacks.

Previously, with HW_ASSISTED_COHERENCY, data caches were disabled while
enabling MMU only because of active stack. Now that we can enable MMU
without using stack, we can enable both MMU and data caches at the same
time.

NOTE: Since this feature depends on using translation table library v2,
disallow using translation table library v1 with HW_ASSISTED_COHERENCY.

The patch changes the layout of BL images in memory to enable
more efficient use of available space. Previously BL31 was loaded
with the expectation that BL2 memory would be reclaimed by BL32
loaded in SRAM. But with increasing memory requirements in the
firmware, we can no longer fit BL32 in SRAM anymore which means the
BL2 memory is not reclaimed by any runtime image. Positioning BL2
below BL1-RW and above BL31 means that the BL31 NOBITS can be
overlaid on BL2 and BL1-RW.

This patch also propogates the same memory layout to BL32 for AArch32
mode. The reset addresses for the following configurations are also
changed :
   * When RESET_TO_SP_MIN=1 for BL32 in AArch32 mode
   * When BL2_AT_EL3=1 for BL2

The restriction on BL31 to be only in DRAM when SPM is enabled
is now removed with this change. The update to the firmware design
guide for the BL memory layout is done in the following patch.

The instructions to boot the bootwrapped kernel were outdated.

Also, the bootwrapped kernel boot flow isn't really useful. It was meant
to be a replacement for the Trusted Firmware-A, not to be used as the next
step during boot.

The instructions have been removed in favour of the new build option
ARM_LINUX_KERNEL_AS_BL33. This new system directly boots the Linux
kernel from BL31, and requires RESET_TO_BL31 to be 1. Also, the kernel
has to be preloaded in memory, so PRELOADED_BL33_BASE has to be set to its
address. This way, the runtime services of the Trusted Firmware-A are
available for the kernel in the least possible amount of time.

This new system requires the DTB to be patched so that the kernel knows
where the ramdisk is. A short script to add this information to the DTB
has been added to the User Guide. The information related to it can be
found in the following file in the Linux kernel tree:
``Documentation/devicetree/bindings/chosen.txt``

Normally, BL33 needs to contain a boot loader like U-Boot or UEFI that
eventually gives control to the OS. However, in some cases, this boot
sequence may be too slow. For example, when doing tests in a
cycle-accurate emulator, the user may only be interested in the
interaction between the Trusted Firmware and the OS, not in the boot
process itself.

The new option ARM_LINUX_KERNEL_AS_BL33 allows BL33 to contain the Linux
kernel image by changing the value of registers x0-x3 to the values
expected by the kernel. This option requires the device tree blob (DTB)
to be present in memory. Its address must be specified in the newly
introduced ARM_PRELOADED_DTB_BASE build option. For now, it only supports
AArch64 kernels.

This option is only available when RESET_TO_BL31=1. For this reason
the BL33 binary must be preloaded in memory and PRELOADED_BL33_BASE must
be used.

For example, if the kernel is loaded at 0x80080000 and the DTB is loaded
at address 0x82000000, the firmware could be built like this:

    CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu-  \
    make PLAT=fvp DEBUG=1             \
    RESET_TO_BL31=1                   \
    ARM_LINUX_KERNEL_AS_BL33=1        \
    PRELOADED_BL33_BASE=0x80080000    \
    ARM_PRELOADED_DTB_BASE=0x82000000 \

The ARMv8.4 RAS extensions introduce architectural support for software
to inject faults into the system in order to test fault-handling
software. This patch introduces the build option FAULT_HANDLING_SUPPORT
to allow for lower ELs to use registers in the Standard Error Record to
inject fault. The build option RAS_EXTENSIONS must also be enabled along
with fault injection.

This feature is intended for testing purposes only, and is advisable to

RAS extensions are mandatory for ARMv8.2 CPUs, but are also optional
extensions to base ARMv8.0 architecture.

This patch adds build system support to enable RAS features in ARM
Trusted Firmware. A boolean build option RAS_EXTENSION is introduced for
this.

With RAS_EXTENSION, an Exception Synchronization Barrier (ESB) is
inserted at all EL3 vector entry and exit. ESBs will synchronize pending
external aborts before entering EL3, and therefore will contain and
attribute errors to lower EL execution. Any errors thus synchronized are
detected via. DISR_EL1 register.

When RAS_EXTENSION is set to 1, HANDLE_EL3_EA_FIRST must also be set to 1.

Due to differences in the bitfields of the SMC IDs, it is not possible
to support SMCCC 1.X and 2.0 at the same time.

The behaviour of `SMCCC_MAJOR_VERSION` has changed. Now, it is a build
option that specifies the major version of the SMCCC that the Trusted
Firmware supports. The only two allowed values are 1 and 2, and it
defaults to 1. The value of `SMCCC_MINOR_VERSION` is derived from it.

Note: Support for SMCCC v2.0 is an experimental feature to enable
prototyping of secure partition specifications. Support for this
convention is disabled by default and could be removed without notice.
