There are two different implementations of Secure Partition
management in TF-A. One is based on the "Management Mode" (MM)
design, the other is based on the Secure Partition Client Interface
(SPCI) specification. Currently there is a dependency between their
build flags that shouldn't exist, making further development
harder than it should be. This patch removes that
dependency, making the two flags function independently.

Before: ENABLE_SPM=1 is required for using either implementation.
        By default, the SPCI-based implementation is enabled and
        this is overridden if SPM_MM=1.

After: ENABLE_SPM=1 enables the SPCI-based implementation.
       SPM_MM=1 enables the MM-based implementation.
       The two build flags are mutually exclusive.

Note that the name of the ENABLE_SPM flag remains a bit
ambiguous - this will be improved in a subsequent patch. For this
patch the intention was to leave the name as-is so that it is
easier to track the changes that were made.

This patch enables LTO for TF-A when compiled with GCC.
LTO is disabled by default and is enabled by
ENABLE_LTO=1 build option.

LTO is enabled only for aarch64 as there seem to be
a bug in the aarch32 compiler when LTO is enabled.

The changes in the makefiles include:
- Adding -flto and associated flags to enable LTO.
- Using gcc as a wrapper at link time instead of ld.
  This is recommended when using LTO as gcc internally
  takes care of invoking the necessary plugins for LTO.
- Adding switches to pass options to ld.
- Adding a flag to disable fix for erratum cortex-a53-843419
  unless explicitly enabled. This is needed because GCC
  seem to automatically add the erratum fix when used
  as a wrapper for LD.

Additionally, this patch updates the TF-A user guide with
the new build option.

Make the spinlock implementation use ARMv8.1-LSE CAS instruction based
on a platform build option. The CAS-based implementation used to be
unconditionally selected for all ARM8.1+ platforms.

The previous CAS spinlock implementation had a bug wherein the spin_unlock()
implementation had an `sev` after `stlr` which is not sufficient. A dsb is
needed to ensure that the stlr completes prior to the sev. Having a dsb is
heavyweight and a better solution would be to use load exclusive semantics
to monitor the lock and wake up from wfe when a store happens to the lock.
The patch implements the same.

This patch adds the functionality needed for platforms to provide
Branch Target Identification (BTI) extension, introduced to AArch64
in Armv8.5-A by adding BTI instruction used to mark valid targets
for indirect branches. The patch sets new GP bit [50] to the stage 1
Translation Table Block and Page entries to denote guarded EL3 code
pages which will cause processor to trap instructions in protected
pages trying to perform an indirect branch to any instruction other
than BTI.
BTI feature is selected by BRANCH_PROTECTION option which supersedes
the previous ENABLE_PAUTH used for Armv8.3-A Pointer Authentication
and is disabled by default. Enabling BTI requires compiler support
and was tested with GCC versions 9.0.0, 9.0.1 and 10.0.0.
The assembly macros and helpers are modified to accommodate the BTI
instruction.
This is an experimental feature.
Note. The previous ENABLE_PAUTH build option to enable PAuth in EL3
is now made as an internal flag and BRANCH_PROTECTION flag should be
used instead to enable Pointer Authentication.
Note. USE_LIBROM=1 option is currently not supported.

On certain platforms it does not make sense to generate
TF-A binary images. For example a platform could make use of serveral
memory areas, which are non-continuous and the resulting binary
therefore would suffer from the padding-bytes.
Typically these platforms use the ELF image.

This patch introduces a variable DISABLE_BIN_GENERATION, which
can be set to '1' in the platform makefile to prevent the binary
generation.

This patch adds the functionality needed for platforms to provide

ARMv8.3-PAuth adds functionality that supports address authentication of
the contents of a register before that register is used as the target of
an indirect branch, or as a load.

This feature is supported only in AArch64 state.

This feature is mandatory in ARMv8.3 implementations.

This feature adds several registers to EL1. A new option called
CTX_INCLUDE_PAUTH_REGS has been added to select if the TF needs to save
them during Non-secure <-> Secure world switches. This option must be
enabled if the hardware has the registers or the values will be leaked
during world switches.

To prevent leaks, this patch also disables pointer authentication in the
Secure world if CTX_INCLUDE_PAUTH_REGS is 0. Any attempt to use it will
be trapped in EL3.

The current SPM is a prototype that only supports one secure partition
in EL0. The objective of SPM is to have multiple partitions. The current
MM interface isn't adequate for this, so it is needed to modify heavily
the code to add proper support for it.

However, there are platforms which are already using this (like SGI) and
removing the code would break it.  For this reason, the current SPM code
has been duplicated in order to temporarily preserve compatibility. All
new improvements/changes to SPM will be done in the non-deprecated copy,
that may change without notice.

The new build option SPM_DEPRECATED has been introduced to select the SPM
implementation. It defaults to 1, that selects the deprecated SPM.

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.

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

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.

At present, any External Abort routed to EL3 is reported as an unhandled

With this patch, when an External Abort is received at EL3, its handling

In order to support handling External Aborts at EL3, the build option
HANDLE_EA_EL3_FIRST must be set to 1.

Before this patch, HANDLE_EA_EL3_FIRST wasn't passed down to

For platforms that have not migrated to MULTI_CONSOLE_API == 1, there
are a lot of confusing deprecated declaration warnings relating to
use of console_init() and console_uninit(). Some of these relate to use
by the generic code, not the platform code. These functions are not really
deprecated but *removed* when MULTI_CONSOLE_API == 1.

This patch consolidates these warnings into a single preprocessor warning.
The __deprecated attribute is removed from the console_init() and
console_uninit() declarations.

For preprocessor warnings like this to not cause fatal build errors,
this patch adds -Wno-error=cpp to the build flags when
ERROR_DEPRECATED == 0.
This option (and -Wno-error=deprecated-declarations) is now added to
CPPFLAGS instead of TF_CFLAGS to ensure the build flags are used in the
assembler as well as the compiler.

This patch also disentangles the MULTI_CONSOLE_API and ERROR_DEPRECATED
build flags by defaulting MULTI_CONSOLE_API to 0 instead of
ERROR_DEPRECATED. This allows platforms that have not migrated to
MULTI_CONSOLE_API to use ERROR_DEPRECATED == 1 to emit a more meaningful
build error.

Finally, this patch bans use of MULTI_CONSOLE_API == 1 and AARCH32, since
the AArch32 console implementation does not support
MULTI_CONSOLE_API == 1.

This patch adds the foundation for a platform-independent coreboot
support library that can be shared by all platforms that boot BL31 from
coreboot (acting as BL2). It adds code to parse the "coreboot table", a
data structure that coreboot uses to communicate different kinds of
information to later-stage firmware and certain OS drivers.

As a first small use case for this information, allow platforms to
access the serial console configuration used by coreboot, removing the
need to hardcode base address and divisors and allowing Trusted Firmware
to benefit from coreboot's user configuration (e.g. which UART to pick
and which baud rate to use).

This patch overhauls the console API to allow for multiple console
instances of different drivers that are active at the same time. Instead
of binding to well-known function names (like console_core_init),
consoles now provide a register function (e.g. console_16550_register())
that will hook them into the list of active consoles. All console
operations will be dispatched to all consoles currently in the list.

The new API will be selected by the build-time option MULTI_CONSOLE_API,
which defaults to ${ERROR_DEPRECATED} for now. The old console API code
will be retained to stay backwards-compatible to older platforms, but
should no longer be used for any newly added platforms and can hopefully
be removed at some point in the future.

The new console API is intended to be used for both normal (bootup) and
crash use cases, freeing platforms of the need to set up the crash
console separately. Consoles can be individually configured to be active
active at boot (until first handoff to EL2), at runtime (after first
handoff to EL2), and/or after a crash. Console drivers should set a sane
default upon registration that can be overridden with the
console_set_scope() call. Code to hook up the crash reporting mechanism
to this framework will be added with a later patch.

This patch only affects AArch64, but the new API could easily be ported
to AArch32 as well if desired.

This patch adds a new build option, ENABLE_SVE_FOR_NS, which when set
to one EL3 will check to see if the Scalable Vector Extension (SVE) is
implemented when entering and exiting the Non-secure world.

If SVE is implemented, EL3 will do the following:

- Entry to Non-secure world: SIMD, FP and SVE functionality is enabled.

- Exit from Non-secure world: SIMD, FP and SVE functionality is
  disabled. As SIMD and FP registers are part of the SVE Z-registers
  then any use of SIMD / FP functionality would corrupt the SVE
  registers.

The build option default is 1. The SVE functionality is only supported
on AArch64 and so the build option is set to zero when the target
archiecture is AArch32.

This build option is not compatible with the CTX_INCLUDE_FPREGS - an
assert will be raised on platforms where SVE is implemented and both
ENABLE_SVE_FOR_NS and CTX_INCLUDE_FPREGS are set to 1.

Also note this change prevents secure world use of FP&SIMD registers on
SVE-enabled platforms. Existing Secure-EL1 Payloads will not work on
such platforms unless ENABLE_SVE_FOR_NS is set to 0.

Additionally, on the first entry into the Non-secure world the SVE
functionality is enabled and the SVE Z-register length is set to the
maximum size allowed by the architecture. This includes the use case
where EL2 is implemented but not used.
