      reset2: Add PSCI system_reset2 function · 36a8f8fd
      Roberto Vargas authored
      
      
      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.

      Increase PLAT_ARM_MMAP_ENTRIES and MAX_XLAT_TABLES · 2e421ad2
      David Cunado authored
      
      
      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

      xlat: Add support for EL0 and EL1 mappings · 609c9191
      Antonio Nino Diaz authored
      
      
      This patch introduces the ability of the xlat tables library to manage
      EL0 and EL1 mappings from a higher exception level.
      
      Attributes MT_USER and MT_PRIVILEGED have been added to allow the user
      specify the target EL in the translation regime EL1&0.
      
      REGISTER_XLAT_CONTEXT2 macro is introduced to allow creating a
      xlat_ctx_t that targets a given translation regime (EL1&0 or EL3).
      
      A new member is added to xlat_ctx_t to represent the translation regime
      the xlat_ctx_t manages. The execute_never mask member is removed as it
      is computed from existing information.

      xlat: Introduce function xlat_arch_tlbi_va_regime() · b4ae615b
      Douglas Raillard authored
      
      
      Introduce a variant of the TLB invalidation helper function that
      allows the targeted translation regime to be specified, rather than
      defaulting to the current one.
      
      This new function is useful in the context of EL3 software managing
      translation tables for the S-EL1&0 translation regime, as then it
      might need to invalidate S-EL1&0 TLB entries rather than EL3 ones.
      
      Define a new enumeration to be able to represent translation regimes in
      the xlat tables library.

      xlat: Introduce MAP_REGION2() macro · fdb1964c
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      
      
      The current implementation of the memory mapping API favours mapping
      memory regions using the biggest possible block size in order to
      reduce the number of translation tables needed.
      
      In some cases, this behaviour might not be desirable. When translation
      tables are edited at run-time, coarse-grain mappings like that might
      need splitting into finer-grain tables. This operation has a
      performance cost.
      
      The MAP_REGION2() macro allows to specify the granularity of
      translation tables used for the initial mapping of a memory region.
      This might increase performance for memory regions that are likely to
      be edited in the future, at the expense of a potentially increased
      memory footprint.
      
      The Translation Tables Library Design Guide has been updated to
      explain the use case for this macro. Also added a few intermediate
      titles to make the guide easier to digest.

      mem_protect: Add DRAM2 to the list of mem protected ranges · b09ba056
      Roberto Vargas authored
      
      
      On ARM platforms, the maximum size of the address space is limited
      to 32-bits as defined in arm_def.h. In order to access DRAM2, which
      is defined beyond the 32-bit address space, the maximum address space
      is increased to 36-bits in AArch64. It is possible to increase the
      virtual space for AArch32, but it is more difficult and not supported
      for now.
      
      NOTE - the actual maximum memory address space is platform dependent
      and is checked at run-time by querying the PARange field in the
      ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1 register.

      mem_protect: Add mem_protect support in Juno and FVP for DRAM1 · f145403c
      Roberto Vargas authored
      
      
      mem_protect needs some kind of non-volatile memory because it has
      to remember its state across reset and power down events.
      The most suitable electronic part for this feature is a NVRAM
      which should be only accesible from the secure world. Juno and
      FVP lack such hardware and for this reason the MEM_PROTECT
      functionality is implemented with Flash EEPROM memory on both
      boards, even though this memory is accesible from the non-secure
      world. This is done only to show a full implementation of
      these PSCI features, but an actual system shouldn't use a
      non-secure NVRAM to implement it.
      
      The EL3 runtime software will write the mem_protect flag and BL2
      will read and clear the memory ranges if enabled. It is done in
      BL2 because it reduces the time that TF needs access to the full
      non-secure memory.
      
      The memory layout of both boards is defined using macros which
      take different values in Juno and FVP platforms. Generic platform
      helpers are added that use the platform specific macros to generate
      a mem_region_t that is valid for the platform.

      Fix type of `unsigned long` constants · e47ac1fd
      Antonio Nino Diaz authored
      
      
      The type `unsigned long` is 32 bit wide in AArch32, but 64 bit wide in
      AArch64. This is inconsistent and that's why we avoid using it as per
      the Coding Guidelines. This patch changes all `UL` occurrences to `U`
      or `ULL` depending on the context so that the size of the constant is
      clear.
      
      This problem affected the macro `BIT(nr)`. As long as this macro is used
      to fill fields of registers, that's not a problem, since all registers
      are 32 bit wide in AArch32 and 64 bit wide in AArch64. However, if the
      macro is used to fill the fields of a 64-bit integer, it won't be able
      to set the upper 32 bits in AArch32.
      
      By changing the type of this macro to `unsigned long long` the behaviour
      is always the same regardless of the architecture, as this type is
      64-bit wide in both cases.
      
      Some Tegra platform files have been modified by this patch.

      Set TCR_EL1.EPD1 bit to 1 · 3388b38d
      Antonio Nino Diaz authored
      
      
      In the S-EL1&0 translation regime we aren't using the higher VA range,
      whose translation table base address is held in TTBR1_EL1. The bit
      TCR_EL1.EPD1 can be used to disable translations using TTBR1_EL1, but
      the code wasn't setting it to 1. Additionally, other fields in TCR1_EL1
      associated with the higher VA range (TBI1, TG1, SH1, ORGN1, IRGN1 and
      A1) weren't set correctly as they were left as 0. In particular, 0 is a
      reserved value for TG1. Also, TBBR1_EL1 was not explicitly set and its
      reset value is UNKNOWN.
      
      Therefore memory accesses to the higher VA range would result in
      unpredictable behaviour as a translation table walk would be attempted
      using an UNKNOWN value in TTBR1_EL1.
      
      On the FVP and Juno platforms accessing the higher VA range resulted in
      a translation fault, but this may not always be the case on all
      platforms.
      
      This patch sets the bit TCR_EL1.EPD1 to 1 so that any kind of
      unpredictable behaviour is prevented.
      
      This bug only affects the AArch64 version of the code, the AArch32
      version sets this bit to 1 as expected.

      The value of BL31_BASE currently depends on the size of BL31. This

      Use the MAP_REGION to build the mmap_region_t argument in wrappers like

      protected against such evolution. This commit also protects users of
      mmap_add_region() and mmap_add_dynamic_region() functions against these
      evolutions.
      
      Also make the MAP_REGION macro implementation more explicit and make it
      a mmap_region_t compound literal to make it useable as a function
      parameter on its own and to prevent using it in initialization of
      variables of different type.

      This patch gives users control over logging messages printed from the C
      code using the LOG macros defined in debug.h Users now have the ability
      to reduce the log_level at run time using the tf_log_set_max_level()
      function. The default prefix string can be defined by platform by
      overriding the `plat_log_get_prefix()` platform API which is also
      introduced in this patch.
      
      The new log framework results in saving of some RO data. For example,
      when BL1 is built for FVP with LOG_LEVEL=LOG_LEVEL_VERBOSE, resulted
      in saving 384 bytes of RO data and increase of 8 bytes of RW data. The
      framework also adds about 108 bytes of code to the release build of FVP.

      cpu log buffer size depends on cache line size · 86606eb5
      Etienne Carriere authored
      
      
      Platform may use specific cache line sizes. Since CACHE_WRITEBACK_GRANULE
      defines the platform specific cache line size, it is used to define the
      size of the cpu data structure CPU_DATA_SIZE aligned on cache line size.
      
      Introduce assembly macro 'mov_imm' for AArch32 to simplify implementation
      of function '_cpu_data_by_index'.

      ARM platforms: Map TSP only when TSPD is included · 3eb2d672
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      
      
      This patch ensures that the ARM_MAP_TSP_SEC_MEM memory region is mapped
      in BL2 only if the TSPD has been included in the build. This saves one
      entry in the plat_arm_mmap[] array and avoids to map extra memory when
      it's not needed.

      Add CFI debug info to vector entries · 31823b69
      Douglas Raillard authored
      
      
      Add Call Frame Information assembler directives to vector entries so
      that debuggers display the backtrace of functions that triggered a
      synchronous exception. For example, a function triggering a data abort
      will be easier to debug if the backtrace can be displayed from a
      breakpoint at the beginning of the synchronous exception vector.
      
      DS-5 needs CFI otherwise it will not attempt to display the backtrace.
      Other debuggers might have other needs. These debug information are
      stored in the ELF file but not in the final binary.

      asm_macros: set the default assembly code alignment to 4 byte · fed18b3a
      Masahiro Yamada authored
      Assembly routines are usually defined by using "func" and "endfunc":
      
          func foo
            ...
          endfunc foo
      
      Currently, the "func" macro does not specify ".align" directive
      by default.  It causes unaligned instruction under some circumstances.
      
      As far as I tested, this problem happens for GCC 5 or older.  It did
      not happen for GCC 6 or newer.  Taking into account that GCC 4.x / 5.x
      is still used, make sure that assembly code is at least 4 byte aligned.
      
      [ How to reproduce the problem ]
      
      For example, use GCC 5.3 downloaded from Linaro:
      http://releases.linaro.org/components/toolchain/binaries/5.3-2016.05/
      aarch64-linux-gnu/gcc-linaro-5.3.1-2016.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu.tar.xz
      
      Expand mbedtls-2.4.2 to the current directory.
      
      Try the following:
      
        $ git log --oneline -1
        77544efb
      
       Merge pull request #1071 from jeenu-arm/syntax-fix
        $ aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc --version | head -1
        aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc (Linaro GCC 5.3-2016.05) 5.3.1 20160412
        $ make CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- PLAT=uniphier \
          TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT=1 MBEDTLS_DIR=mbedtls-2.4.2
          ( snip build log )
        $ aarch64-linux-gnu-nm build/uniphier/release/bl1/bl1.elf | grep handler
        00000000800088f4 T bl1_fwu_smc_handler
        00000000800084c8 T bl1_smc_handler
        000000008000a6e0 t _panic_handler
        000000008000a8e0 W plat_error_handler
        000000008000a8e8 W plat_panic_handler
        000000008000a8d8 W plat_reset_handler
        000000008000a39f T reset_handler
        000000008000a367 t smc_handler
        000000008000a2ef t smc_handler64
      
      You will notice "smc_handler64", "reset_handler", etc. are not properly
      aligned.

      ARM plat: change OP-TEE pageable load base · 04f72bae
      Jens Wiklander authored
      
      
      Changes ARM_OPTEE_PAGEABLE_LOAD_BASE to end of ARM_AP_TZC_DRAM1.
      ARM_OPTEE_PAGEABLE_LOAD_SIZE is also increased to 4MB to optimize
      translation table usage.
      
      This change makes loading of paged part easier inside OP-TEE OS as the
      previous location of ARM_OPTEE_PAGEABLE_LOAD_BASE normally isn't mapped
      if paging is enabled.

      Enable CnP bit for ARMv8.2 CPUs · 9fce2725
      Isla Mitchell authored
      
      
      This patch enables the CnP (Common not Private) bit for secure page
      tables so that multiple PEs in the same Inner Shareable domain can use
      the same translation table entries for a given stage of translation in
      a particular translation regime. This only takes effect when ARM
      Trusted Firmware is built with ARM_ARCH_MINOR >= 2.
      
      ARM Trusted Firmware Design has been updated to include a description
      of this feature usage.

      Add macro to test for minimum architecture version · f45e232a
      Jeenu Viswambharan authored
      
      
      The macro concisely expresses and requires architecture version to be at
      least as required by its arguments. This would be useful when extending
      Trusted Firmware functionality for future architecture revisions.
      
      Replace similar usage in the current code base with the new macro.

      Add new alignment parameter to func assembler macro · 64726e6d
      Julius Werner authored
      
      
      Assembler programmers are used to being able to define functions with a
      specific aligment with a pattern like this:
      
          .align X
        myfunction:
      
      However, this pattern is subtly broken when instead of a direct label
      like 'myfunction:', you use the 'func myfunction' macro that's standard
      in Trusted Firmware. Since the func macro declares a new section for the
      function, the .align directive written above it actually applies to the
      *previous* section in the assembly file, and the function it was
      supposed to apply to is linked with default alignment.
      
      An extreme case can be seen in Rockchip's plat_helpers.S which contains
      this code:
      
        [...]
        endfunc plat_crash_console_putc
      
        .align 16
        func platform_cpu_warmboot
        [...]
      
      This assembles into the following plat_helpers.o:
      
        Sections:
        Idx Name                             Size  [...]  Algn
         9 .text.plat_crash_console_putc 00010000  [...]  2**16
        10 .text.platform_cpu_warmboot   00000080  [...]  2**3
      
      As can be seen, the *previous* function actually got the alignment
      constraint, and it is also 64KB big even though it contains only two
      instructions, because the .align directive at the end of its section
      forces the assembler to insert a giant sled of NOPs. The function we
      actually wanted to align has the default constraint. This code only
      works at all because the linker just happens to put the two functions
      right behind each other when linking the final image, and since the end
      of plat_crash_console_putc is aligned the start of platform_cpu_warmboot
      will also be. But it still wastes almost 64KB of image space
      unnecessarily, and it will break under certain circumstances (e.g. if
      the plat_crash_console_putc function becomes unused and its section gets
      garbage-collected out).
      
      There's no real way to fix this with the existing func macro. Code like
      
       func myfunc
       .align X
      
      happens to do the right thing, but is still not really correct code
      (because the function label is inserted before the .align directive, so
      the assembler is technically allowed to insert padding at the beginning
      of the function which would then get executed as instructions if the
      function was called). Therefore, this patch adds a new parameter with a
      default value to the func macro that allows overriding its alignment.
      
      Also fix up all existing instances of this dangerous antipattern.
