      Correctly dimension the PSCI aff_map_node array · 6c0b45d1
      Andrew Thoelke authored
      The array of affinity nodes is currently allocated for 32 entries
      with the PSCI_NUM_AFFS value defined in psci.h. This is not enough
      for large systems, and will substantially over allocate the array
      for small systems.
      
      This patch introduces an optional platform definition
      PLATFORM_NUM_AFFS to platform_def.h. If defined this value is
      used for PSCI_NUM_AFFS, otherwise a value of two times the number
      of CPU cores is used.
      
      The FVP port defines PLATFORM_NUM_AFFS to be 10 which saves
      nearly 1.5KB of memory.
      
      Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#192

      Initialise CPU contexts from entry_point_info · 167a9357
      Andrew Thoelke authored
      Consolidate all BL3-1 CPU context initialization for cold boot, PSCI
      and SPDs into two functions:
      *  The first uses entry_point_info to initialize the relevant
         cpu_context for first entry into a lower exception level on a CPU
      *  The second populates the EL1 and EL2 system registers as needed
         from the cpu_context to ensure correct entry into the lower EL
      
      This patch alters the way that BL3-1 determines which exception level
      is used when first entering EL1 or EL2 during cold boot - this is now
      fully determined by the SPSR value in the entry_point_info for BL3-3,
      as set up by the platform code in BL2 (or otherwise provided to BL3-1).
      
      In the situation that EL1 (or svc mode) is selected for a processor
      that supports EL2, the context management code will now configure all
      essential EL2 register state to ensure correct execution of EL1. This
      allows the platform code to run non-secure EL1 payloads directly
      without requiring a small EL2 stub or OS loader.

      Provide cm_get/set_context() for current CPU · 08ab89d3
      Andrew Thoelke authored
      All callers of cm_get_context() pass the calling CPU MPIDR to the
      function. Providing a specialised version for the current
      CPU results in a reduction in code size and better readability.
      
      The current function has been renamed to cm_get_context_by_mpidr()
      and the existing name is now used for the current-CPU version.
      
      The same treatment has been done to cm_set_context(), although
      only both forms are used at present in the PSCI and TSPD code.

      Enable mapping higher physical address · f984ce84
      Lin Ma authored
      Current ATF uses a direct physical-to-virtual mapping, that is, a physical
      address is mapped to the same address in the virtual space. For example,
      physical address 0x8000_0000 is mapped to 0x8000_0000 virtual. This
      approach works fine for FVP as all its physical addresses fall into 0 to
      4GB range. But for other platform where all I/O addresses are 48-bit long,
      If we follow the same direct mapping, we would need virtual address range
      from 0 to 0x8fff_ffff_ffff, which is about 144TB. This requires a
      significant amount of memory for MMU tables and it is not necessary to use
      that much virtual space in ATF.
      
      The patch is to enable mapping a physical address range to an arbitrary
      virtual address range (instead of flat mapping)
      Changed "base" to "base_va" and added "base_pa" in mmap_region_t and
      modified functions such as mmap_add_region and init_xlation_table etc.

      Add enable mmu platform porting interfaces · dff8e47a
      Dan Handley authored
      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.

      Move BL porting functions into platform.h · dec5e0d1

      These have been moved to platform.h so that all porting functions
      are in the same place. The functions are now grouped by BL.
      Obsolete BL headers files have been removed.
      
      Also, the weak declaration of the init_bl2_mem_layout() function
      has been moved out the header file and into the source file
      (bl_common.c) using the more succinct #pragma syntax. This
      mitigates the risk of 2 weak definitions being created and the
      wrong one being picked up by the compiler.

      Use a vector table for TSP entrypoints · 399fb08f
      Andrew Thoelke authored
      The TSP has a number of entrypoints used by the TSP on different
      occasions. These were provided to the TSPD as a table of function
      pointers, and required the TSPD to read the entry in the table,
      which is in TSP memory, in order to program the exception return
      address.
      
      Ideally, the TSPD has no access to the TSP memory.
      
      This patch changes the table of function pointers into a vector
      table of single instruction entrypoints. This allows the TSPD to
      calculate the entrypoint address instead of read it.

      Introduce interrupt registration framework in BL3-1 · e1333f75
      Achin Gupta authored
      This patch introduces a framework for registering interrupts routed to
      EL3. The interrupt routing model is governed by the SCR_EL3.IRQ and
      FIQ bits and the security state an interrupt is generated in. The
      framework recognizes three type of interrupts depending upon which
      exception level and security state they should be handled in
      i.e. Secure EL1 interrupts, Non-secure interrupts and EL3
      interrupts. It provides an API and macros that allow a runtime service
      to register an handler for a type of interrupt and specify the routing
      model. The framework validates the routing model and uses the context
      management framework to ensure that it is applied to the SCR_EL3 prior
      to entry into the target security state. It saves the handler in
      internal data structures. An API is provided to retrieve the handler
      when an interrupt of a particular type is asserted. Registration is
      expected to be done once by the primary CPU. The same handler and
      routing model is used for all CPUs.
      
      Support for EL3 interrupts will be added to the framework in the
      future. A makefile flag has been added to allow the FVP port choose
      between ARM GIC v2 and v3 support in EL3. The latter version is
      currently unsupported.
      
      A framework for handling interrupts in BL3-1 will be introduced in
      subsequent patches. The default routing model in the absence of any
      handlers expects no interrupts to be routed to EL3.

      execution to BL3-1 through BL1 directly. Only x0 and x1 are used
      to pass arguments to BL31. These arguments and parameters for
      running BL3-1 are passed through a reference to a
      'el_change_info_t' structure. They were being passed value in
      general purpose registers earlier.

      Introduce macros to manipulate the SPSR · 23ff9baa
      Vikram Kanigiri authored
      This patch introduces macros (SPSR_64 and SPSR_32) to
      create a SPSR for both aarch32 and aarch64 execution
      states. These macros allow the user to set fields
      in the SPSR depending upon its format.
      The make_spsr() function which did not allow
      manipulation of all the fields in the aarch32 SPSR
      has been replaced by these new macros.

      Add build configuration for timer save/restore · 2da8d8bf
      Jeenu Viswambharan authored
      At present, non-secure timer register contents are saved and restored as
      part of world switch by BL3-1. This effectively means that the
      non-secure timer stops, and non-secure timer interrupts are prevented
      from asserting until BL3-1 switches back, introducing latency for
      non-secure services. Often, secure world might depend on alternate
      sources for secure interrupts (secure timer or platform timer) instead
      of non-secure timers, in which case this save and restore is
      unnecessary.
      
      This patch introduces a boolean build-time configuration NS_TIMER_SWITCH
      to choose whether or not to save and restore non-secure timer registers
      upon world switch. The default choice is made not to save and restore
      them.

      Rework BL3-1 unhandled exception handling and reporting · a43d431b
      Soby Mathew authored
      This patch implements the register reporting when unhandled exceptions are
      taken in BL3-1. Unhandled exceptions will result in a dump of registers
      to the console, before halting execution by that CPU. The Crash Stack,
      previously called the Exception Stack, is used for this activity.
      This stack is used to preserve the CPU context and runtime stack
      contents for debugging and analysis.
      
      This also introduces the per_cpu_ptr_cache, referenced by tpidr_el3,
      to provide easy access to some of BL3-1 per-cpu data structures.
      Initially, this is used to provide a pointer to the Crash stack.
      
      panic() now prints the the error file and line number in Debug mode
      and prints the PC value in release mode.
      
      The Exception Stack is renamed to Crash Stack with this patch.
      The original intention of exception stack is no longer valid
      since we intend to support several valid exceptions like IRQ
      and FIQ in the trusted firmware context. This stack is now
      utilized for dumping and reporting the system state when a
      crash happens and hence the rename.

      Fix broken standby state implementation in PSCI · 317ba090
      Achin Gupta authored
      This patch fixes the broken support for entry into standby states
      introduced under commit-id 'd118f9f8' (tf-issues#94). Upon exit from
      the platform defined standby state instead of returning to the caller
      of the SMC, execution would get stuck in the wfi instruction meant for
      entering a power down state. This patch ensures that exit from a
      standby state and entry into a power down state do not interfere with
      each other.

      Preserve x19-x29 across world switch for exception handling · c3260f9b
      Soby Mathew authored
      Previously exception handlers in BL3-1, X19-X29 were not saved
      and restored on every SMC/trap into EL3. Instead these registers
      were 'saved as needed' as a side effect of the A64 ABI used by the C
      compiler.
      
      That approach failed when world switching but was not visible
      with the TSP/TSPD code because the TSP is 64-bit, did not
      clobber these registers when running and did not support pre-emption
      by normal world interrupts. These scenarios showed
      that the values in these registers can be passed through a world
      switch, which broke the normal and trusted world assumptions
      about these registers being preserved.
      
      The Ideal solution saves and restores these registers when a
      world switch occurs - but that type of implementation is more complex.
      So this patch always saves and restores these registers on entry and
      exit of EL3.

      Optimise data cache clean/invalidate operation · 5f6032a8
      Andrew Thoelke authored
      The data cache clean and invalidate operations dcsw_op_all()
      and dcsw_op_loius() were implemented to invoke a DSB and ISB
      barrier for every set/way operation. This adds a substantial
      performance penalty to an already expensive operation.
      
      These functions have been reworked to provide an optimised
      implementation derived from the code in section D3.4 of the
      ARMv8 ARM. The helper macro setup_dcsw_op_args has been moved
      and reworked alongside the implementation.

      Access system registers directly in assembler · 7935d0a5
      Andrew Thoelke authored
      Instead of using the system register helper functions to read
      or write system registers, assembler coded functions should
      use MRS/MSR instructions. This results in faster and more
      compact code.
      
      This change replaces all usage of the helper functions with
      direct register accesses.

      Replace disable_mmu with assembler version · 2f5dcfef
      Andrew Thoelke authored
      disable_mmu() cannot work as a C function as there is no control
      over data accesses generated by the compiler between disabling and
      cleaning the data cache. This results in reading stale data from
      main memory.
      
      As assembler version is provided for EL3, and a variant that also
      disables the instruction cache which is now used by the BL1
      exception handling function.
