This patch adds a minimal AArch32 secure payload SP_MIN. It relies on PSCI library to initialize the normal world context. It runs in Monitor mode and uses the runtime service framework to handle SMCs. It is added as a BL32 component in the Trusted Firmware source tree.

This patch moves the assembly exclusive lock library code `spinlock.S` into architecture specific folder `aarch64`. A stub file which includes the file from new location is retained at the original location for compatibility. The BL makefiles are also modified to include the file from the new location.

In debug builds, the TSP prints its image base address and size. The base address displayed corresponds to the start address of the read-only section, as defined in the linker script. This patch changes this to use the BL32_BASE address instead, which is the same address as __RO_START__ at the moment but has the advantage to be independent of the linker symbols defined in the linker script as well as the layout and order of the sections.

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 some assembler macros to simplify the declaration of the exception vectors. It abstracts the section the exception code is put into as well as the alignments constraints mandated by the ARMv8 architecture. For all TF images, the exception code has been updated to make use of these macros. This patch also updates some invalid comments in the exception vector code.

As an initial stage of making Trusted Firmware build environment more portable, we remove most uses of the $(shell ) function and replace them with more portable make function based solutions. Note that the setting of BUILD_STRING still uses $(shell ) since it's not possible to reimplement this as a make function. Avoiding invocation of this on incompatible host platforms will be implemented separately. Change-Id: I768e2f9a265c78814a4adf2edee4cc46cda0f5b8

Added a new platform porting function plat_panic_handler, to allow platforms to handle unexpected error situations. It must be implemented in assembly as it may be called before the C environment is initialized. A default implementation is provided, which simply spins. Corrected all dead loops in generic code to call this function instead. This includes the dead loop that occurs at the end of the call to panic(). All unnecesary wfis from bl32/tsp/aarch64/tsp_exceptions.S have been removed. Change-Id: I67cb85f6112fa8e77bd62f5718efcef4173d8134

Earlier the TSP only ever expected to be preempted during Standard SMC processing. If a S-EL1 interrupt triggered while in the normal world, it will routed to S-EL1 `synchronously` for handling. The `synchronous` S-EL1 interrupt handler `tsp_sel1_intr_entry` used to panic if this S-EL1 interrupt was preempted by another higher priority pending interrupt which should be handled in EL3 e.g. Group0 interrupt in GICv3. With this patch, the `tsp_sel1_intr_entry` now expects `TSP_PREEMPTED` as the return code from the `tsp_common_int_handler` in addition to 0 (interrupt successfully handled) and in both cases it issues an SMC with id `TSP_HANDLED_S_EL1_INTR`. The TSPD switches the context and returns back to normal world. In case a higher priority EL3 interrupt was pending, the execution will be routed to EL3 where interrupt will be handled. On return back to normal world, the pending S-EL1 interrupt which was preempted will get routed to S-EL1 to be handled `synchronously` via `tsp_sel1_intr_entry`.

On a GICv2 system, interrupts that should be handled in the secure world are typically signalled as FIQs. On a GICv3 system, these interrupts are signalled as IRQs instead. The mechanism for handling both types of interrupts is the same in both cases. This patch enables the TSP to run on a GICv3 system by: 1. adding support for handling IRQs in the exception handling code. 2. removing use of "fiq" in the names of data structures, macros and functions. The build option TSPD_ROUTE_IRQ_TO_EL3 is deprecated and is replaced with a new build flag TSP_NS_INTR_ASYNC_PREEMPT. For compatibility reasons, if the former build flag is defined, it will be used to define the value for the new build flag. The documentation is also updated accordingly.

The TSP is expected to pass control back to EL3 if it gets preempted due to an interrupt while handling a Standard SMC in the following scenarios: 1. An FIQ preempts Standard SMC execution and that FIQ is not a TSP Secure timer interrupt or is preempted by a higher priority interrupt by the time the TSP acknowledges it. In this case, the TSP issues an SMC with the ID as `TSP_EL3_FIQ`. Currently this case is never expected to happen as only the TSP Secure Timer is expected to generate FIQ. 2. An IRQ preempts Standard SMC execution and in this case the TSP issues an SMC with the ID as `TSP_PREEMPTED`. In both the cases, the TSPD hands control back to the normal world and returns returns an error code to the normal world to indicate that the standard SMC it had issued has been preempted but not completed. This patch unifies the handling of these two cases in the TSPD and ensures that the TSP only uses TSP_PREEMPTED instead of separate SMC IDs. Also instead of 2 separate error codes, SMC_PREEMPTED and TSP_EL3_FIQ, only SMC_PREEMPTED is returned as error code back to the normal world. Background information: On a GICv3 system, when the secure world has affinity routing enabled, in 2. an FIQ will preempt TSP execution instead of an IRQ. The FIQ could be a result of a Group 0 or a Group 1 NS interrupt. In both case, the TSPD passes control back to the normal world upon receipt of the TSP_PREEMPTED SMC. A Group 0 interrupt will immediately preempt execution to EL3 where it will be handled. This allows for unified interrupt handling in TSP for both GICv3 and GICv2 systems.

On the ARMv8 architecture, cache maintenance operations by set/way on the last level of integrated cache do not affect the system cache. This means that such a flush or clean operation could result in the data being pushed out to the system cache rather than main memory. Another CPU could access this data before it enables its data cache or MMU. Such accesses could be serviced from the main memory instead of the system cache. If the data in the sysem cache has not yet been flushed or evicted to main memory then there could be a loss of coherency. The only mechanism to guarantee that the main memory will be updated is to use cache maintenance operations to the PoC by MVA(See section D3.4.11 (System level caches) of ARMv8-A Reference Manual (Issue A.g/ARM DDI0487A.G). This patch removes the reliance of Trusted Firmware on the flush by set/way operation to ensure visibility of data in the main memory. Cache maintenance operations by MVA are now used instead. The following are the broad category of changes: 1. The RW areas of BL2/BL31/BL32 are invalidated by MVA before the C runtime is initialised. This ensures that any stale cache lines at any level of cache are removed. 2. Updates to global data in runtime firmware (BL31) by the primary CPU are made visible to secondary CPUs using a cache clean operation by MVA. 3. Cache maintenance by set/way operations are only used prior to power down. NOTE: NON-UPSTREAM TRUSTED FIRMWARE CODE SHOULD MAKE EQUIVALENT CHANGES IN ORDER TO FUNCTION CORRECTLY ON PLATFORMS WITH SUPPORT FOR SYSTEM CACHES.

In certain Trusted OS implementations it is a requirement to pass them the highest power level which will enter a power down state during a PSCI CPU_SUSPEND or SYSTEM_SUSPEND API invocation. This patch passes this power level to the SPD in the "max_off_pwrlvl" parameter of the svc_suspend() hook. Currently, the highest power level which was requested to be placed in a low power state (retention or power down) is passed to the SPD svc_suspend_finish() hook. This hook is called after emerging from the low power state. It is more useful to pass the highest power level which was powered down instead. This patch does this by changing the semantics of the parameter passed to an SPD's svc_suspend_finish() hook. The name of the parameter has been changed from "suspend_level" to "max_off_pwrlvl" as well. Same changes have been made to the parameter passed to the tsp_cpu_resume_main() function. NOTE: THIS PATCH CHANGES THE SEMANTICS OF THE EXISTING "svc_suspend_finish()" API BETWEEN THE PSCI AND SPD/SP IMPLEMENTATIONS. THE LATTER MIGHT NEED UPDATES TO ENSURE CORRECT BEHAVIOUR.

Update the top level makefile to allow platform ports to exist in subdirectories at any level instead of one level under `plat/`. The makefile recursively searches for all files called `platform.mk` in all subdirectories of `plat/`. The directory containing `platform.mk` is the platform name. Platform names must be unique across the codebase. Replace usage of HELP_PLATFORMS in the Makefile with PLATFORMS since these are both used to report the same information back to the user. Update the TSP and cert_create tool makefiles in a similar way to support a deeper platform port directory structure. Also add PLAT_<plat_name> as a define passed through the top level makefile to the source files, to allow build time variation in common platform code.

In order for the symbol table in the ELF file to contain the size of functions written in assembly, it is necessary to report it to the assembler using the .size directive. To fulfil the above requirements, this patch introduces an 'endfunc' macro which contains the .endfunc and .size directives. It also adds a .func directive to the 'func' assembler macro. The .func/.endfunc have been used so the assembler can fail if endfunc is omitted.

This patch modifies the declarations of the functions printf() et al. and adds the right GCC attribute to request the compiler to check the type of the arguments passed to these functions against the given format string. This will ensure that the compiler outputs warning messages like the following whenever it detects an inconsistency: file.c:42: warning: format ‘%d’ expects type ‘int’, but argument 3 has type ‘long int’ It also fixes the type mismatch inconsistencies that it revealed across the code base.

This patch adds support to save the "power state" parameter before the affinity level specific handlers are called in a CPU_SUSPEND call. This avoids the need to pass the power_state as a parameter to the handlers and Secure Payload Dispatcher (SPD) suspend spd_pm_ops. The power_state arguments in the spd_pm_ops operations are now reserved and must not be used. The SPD can query the relevant power_state fields by using the psci_get_suspend_afflvl() & psci_get_suspend_stateid() APIs. NOTE: THIS PATCH WILL BREAK THE SPD_PM_OPS INTERFACE. HENCE THE SECURE PAYLOAD DISPATCHERS WILL NEED TO BE REWORKED TO USE THE NEW INTERFACE. Change-Id: I1293d7dc8cf29cfa6a086a009eee41bcbf2f238e

This patch implements the TSP on Juno. It executes from on-chip Trusted SRAM. Also, the other bootloader images (i.e. BL1 R/W, BL2 and BL3-1) have been moved around. The reason is, although there was enough space overall to store the TSP in SRAM, there was no contiguous free chunk of SRAM big enough to hold it. This patch keeps the overall memory layout (i.e. keeping BL1 R/W at the bottom, BL2 at the top and BL3-1 in between) but moves the base addresses of all the bootloader images in such a way that: - memory fragmentation is reduced enough to fit BL3-2 in; - new base addresses are suitable for release builds as well as debug ones; - each image has a few extra kilobytes for future growth. BL3-1 and BL3-2 are the images which received the biggest allocations since they will most probably grow the most. This patch also adds instruction synchronization barriers around the code which handles the timer interrupt in the TSP. This ensures that the interrupt is not acknowledged after or EOIed before it is deactivated at the peripheral. Change-Id: I1c5b51858700027ee283ac85d18e06863a27c72e

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.

This patch disables routing of external aborts from lower exception levels to EL3 and ensures that a SError interrupt generated as a result of execution in EL3 is taken locally instead of a lower exception level.

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. Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#219 Change-Id: If675a1de8e8d25122b7fef147cb238d939f90b5e

This patch uses stacks allocated in normal memory to enable the MMU early in the warm boot path thus removing the dependency on stacks allocated in coherent memory. Necessary cache and stack maintenance is performed when a cpu is being powered down and up. This avoids any coherency issues that can arise from reading speculatively fetched stale stack memory from another CPUs cache. These changes affect the warm boot path in both BL3-1 and BL3-2. The EL3 system registers responsible for preserving the MMU state are not saved and restored any longer. Static values are used to program these system registers when a cpu is powered on or resumed from suspend. Change-Id: I8357e2eb5eb6c5f448492c5094b82b8927603784

This patch reworks the cold boot path across the BL1, BL2, BL3-1 and BL3-2 boot loader stages to not use stacks allocated in coherent memory for early platform setup and enabling the MMU. Stacks allocated in normal memory are used instead. Attributes for stack memory change from nGnRnE when the MMU is disabled to Normal WBWA Inner-shareable when the MMU and data cache are enabled. It is possible for the CPU to read stale stack memory after the MMU is enabled from another CPUs cache. Hence, it is unsafe to turn on the MMU and data cache while using normal stacks when multiple CPUs are a part of the same coherency domain. It is safe to do so in the cold boot path as only the primary cpu executes it. The secondary cpus are in a quiescent state. This patch does not remove the allocation of coherent stack memory. That is done in a subsequent patch. Change-Id: I12c80b7c7ab23506d425c5b3a8a7de693498f830

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 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 plat/fvp/aarch64/fvp_common.c and remove plat/fvp/fvp_gic.c Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#182 Change-Id: Iea82fe095fad62dd33ba9efbddd48c57717edd21

Rename the ic_* platform porting functions to plat_ic_* to be consistent with the other functions in platform.h. Also rename bl31_get_next_image_info() to bl31_plat_get_next_image_ep_info() and remove the duplicate declaration in bl31.h. Change-Id: I4851842069d3cff14c0a468daacc0a891a7ede84

Previously, the enable_mmu_elX() functions were implicitly part of the platform porting layer since they were included by generic code. These functions have been placed behind 2 new platform functions, bl31_plat_enable_mmu() and bl32_plat_enable_mmu(). These are weakly defined so that they can be optionally overridden by platform ports. Also, the enable_mmu_elX() functions have been moved to lib/aarch64/xlat_tables.c for optional re-use by platform ports. These functions are tightly coupled with the translation table initialization code. Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#152 Change-Id: I0a2251ce76acfa3c27541f832a9efaa49135cc1c
