      BL31: Program Priority Mask for SMC handling · 3d732e23
      Jeenu Viswambharan authored
      
      
      On GICv3 systems, as a side effect of adding provision to handle EL3
      interrupts (unconditionally routing FIQs to EL3), pending Non-secure
      interrupts (signalled as FIQs) may preempt execution in lower Secure ELs
      [1]. This will inadvertently disrupt the semantics of Fast SMC
      (previously called Atomic SMC) calls.
      
      To retain semantics of Fast SMCs, the GIC PMR must be programmed to
      prevent Non-secure interrupts from preempting Secure execution. To that
      effect, two new functions in the Exception Handling Framework subscribe
      to events introduced in an earlier commit:
      
        - Upon 'cm_exited_normal_world', the Non-secure PMR is stashed, and
          the PMR is programmed to the highest Non-secure interrupt priority.
      
        - Upon 'cm_entering_normal_world', the previously stashed Non-secure
          PMR is restored.
      
      The above sequence however prevents Yielding SMCs from being preempted
      by Non-secure interrupts as intended. To facilitate this, the public API
      exc_allow_ns_preemption() is introduced that programs the PMR to the
      original Non-secure PMR value. Another API
      exc_is_ns_preemption_allowed() is also introduced to check if
      exc_allow_ns_preemption() had been called previously.
      
      API documentation to follow.
      
      [1] On GICv2 systems, this isn't a problem as, unlike GICv3, pending NS
          IRQs during Secure execution are signalled as IRQs, which aren't
          routed to EL3.

      BL31: Introduce Exception Handling Framework · 21b818c0
      Jeenu Viswambharan authored
      
      
      EHF is a framework that allows dispatching of EL3 interrupts to their
      respective handlers in EL3.
      
      This framework facilitates the firmware-first error handling policy in
      which asynchronous exceptions may be routed to EL3. Such exceptions may
      be handed over to respective exception handlers. Individual handlers
      might further delegate exception handling to lower ELs.
      
      The framework associates the delegated execution to lower ELs with a
      priority value. For interrupts, this corresponds to the priorities
      programmed in GIC; for other types of exceptions, viz. SErrors or
      Synchronous External Aborts, individual dispatchers shall explicitly
      associate delegation to a secure priority. In order to prevent lower
      priority interrupts from preempting higher priority execution, the
      framework provides helpers to control preemption by virtue of
      programming Priority Mask register in the interrupt controller.
      
      This commit allows for handling interrupts targeted at EL3. Exception
      handlers own interrupts by assigning them a range of secure priorities,
      and registering handlers for each priority range it owns.
      
      Support for exception handling in BL31 image is enabled by setting the
      build option EL3_EXCEPTION_HANDLING=1.
      
      Documentation to follow.
      
      NOTE: The framework assumes the priority scheme supported by platform
      interrupt controller is compliant with that of ARM GIC architecture (v2
      or later).

      GIC: Introduce API to get interrupt ID · 4ee8d0be
      Jeenu Viswambharan authored
      
      
      Acknowledging interrupt shall return a raw value from the interrupt
      controller in which the actual interrupt ID may be encoded. Add a
      platform API to extract the actual interrupt ID from the raw value
      obtained from interrupt controller.
      
      Document the new function. Also clarify the semantics of interrupt
      acknowledge.

      SPM: Introduce Secure Partition Manager · 2fccb228
      Antonio Nino Diaz authored
      
      
      A Secure Partition is a software execution environment instantiated in
      S-EL0 that can be used to implement simple management and security
      services. Since S-EL0 is an unprivileged exception level, a Secure
      Partition relies on privileged firmware e.g. ARM Trusted Firmware to be
      granted access to system and processor resources. Essentially, it is a
      software sandbox that runs under the control of privileged software in
      the Secure World and accesses the following system resources:
      
      - Memory and device regions in the system address map.
      - PE system registers.
      - A range of asynchronous exceptions e.g. interrupts.
      - A range of synchronous exceptions e.g. SMC function identifiers.
      
      A Secure Partition enables privileged firmware to implement only the
      absolutely essential secure services in EL3 and instantiate the rest in
      a partition. Since the partition executes in S-EL0, its implementation
      cannot be overly complex.
      
      The component in ARM Trusted Firmware responsible for managing a Secure
      Partition is called the Secure Partition Manager (SPM). The SPM is
      responsible for the following:
      
      - Validating and allocating resources requested by a Secure Partition.
      - Implementing a well defined interface that is used for initialising a
        Secure Partition.
      - Implementing a well defined interface that is used by the normal world
        and other secure services for accessing the services exported by a
        Secure Partition.
      - Implementing a well defined interface that is used by a Secure
        Partition to fulfil service requests.
      - Instantiating the software execution environment required by a Secure
        Partition to fulfil a service request.

      xlat: Make function to calculate TCR PA bits public · ad02a759
      Antonio Nino Diaz authored
      
      
      This function can be useful to setup TCR_ELx by callers that don't use
      the translation tables library to setup the system registers related
      to them. By making it common, it can be reused whenever it is needed
      without duplicating code.

      Init and save / restore of PMCR_EL0 / PMCR · 3e61b2b5
      David Cunado authored
      
      
      Currently TF does not initialise the PMCR_EL0 register in
      the secure context or save/restore the register.
      
      In particular, the DP field may not be set to one to prohibit
      cycle counting in the secure state, even though event counting
      generally is prohibited via the default setting of MDCR_EL3.SMPE
      to 0.
      
      This patch initialises PMCR_EL0.DP to one in the secure state
      to prohibit cycle counting and also initialises other fields
      that have an architectually UNKNOWN reset value.
      
      Additionally, PMCR_EL0 is added to the list of registers that are
      saved and restored during a world switch.
      
      Similar changes are made for PMCR for the AArch32 execution state.
      
      NOTE: secure world code at lower ELs that assume other values in PMCR_EL0
      will be impacted.

      This patch implements PSCI_SYSTEM_RESET2 API as defined in PSCI
      v1.1 specification. The specification allows architectural and
      vendor-specific resets via this API. In the current specification,
      there is only one architectural reset, the warm reset. This reset is
      intended to provide a fast reboot path that guarantees not to reset
      system main memory.

      ARM platforms: Add support for EL3 TZC memory region · a22dffc6
      Soby Mathew authored
      
      
      Some recent enhancements to EL3 runtime firmware like support for
      save and restoring GICv3 register context during system_suspend
      necessitates additional data memory for the firmware. This patch
      introduces support for creating a TZC secured DDR carveout for use
      by ARM reference platforms. A new linker section `el3_tzc_dram` is
      created using platform supplied linker script and data marked with
      the attribute `arm_el3_tzc_dram` will be placed in this section.
      The FVP makefile now defines the `PLAT_EXTRA_LD_SCRIPT` variable to
      allow inclusion of the platform linker script by the top level BL31
      linker script.

      The MEM_PROTECT support adds a MMAP region for DRAM2, which when
      building with TBBR support and OP-TEE tsp requires an additional
      entry in the MMAP region array in BL2 - PLAT_ARM_MMAP_ENTRIES is
      increased.
      
      The MEM_PROTECT support also adds a new region in BL31, and when
      BL31 is placed in DRAM, the memory mappings require an additional
      translation table - MAX_XLAT_TABLES is increased.

      GICv3: ITS architectural save and restore helpers · b258278e
      Soby Mathew authored
      
      
      This patch adds functions to save and restore GICv3 ITS registers during
      system suspend. Please note that the power management of GIC ITS is
      implementation defined. These functions only implements the
      architectural part of the ITS power management and they do not restore
      memory structures or register content required to support ITS. Even if
      the ITS implementation stores structures in memory, an implementation
      defined power down sequence is likely to be required to flush some
      internal ITS caches to memory. If such implementation defined sequence
      is not followed, the platform must ensure that the ITS is not power
      gated during system suspend.

      GICv3: add functions for save and restore · ebf1ca10
      Soby Mathew authored
      
      
      During system suspend, the GICv3 Distributor and Redistributor context
      can be lost due to power gating of the system power domain. This means
      that the GICv3 context needs to be saved prior to system suspend and
      restored on wakeup. Currently the consensus is that the Firmware should
      be in charge of this. See tf-issues#464 for more details.
      
      This patch introduces helper APIs in the GICv3 driver to save and
      restore the Distributor and Redistributor contexts. The GICv3 ITS
      context is not considered in this patch because the specification says
      that the details of ITS power management is implementation-defined.
      These APIs are expected to be appropriately invoked by the platform
      layer during system suspend.
      
      Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#464
