During context switching from higher EL (EL2 or higher)
to lower EL can cause incorrect translation in TLB due to
speculative execution of AT instruction using out-of-context
translation regime.

Workaround is implemented as below during EL's (EL1 or EL2)
"context_restore" operation:
1. Disable page table walk using SCTLR.M and TCR.EPD0 & EPD1
   bits for EL1 or EL2 (stage1 and stage2 disabled)
2. Save all system registers except TCR and SCTLR (for EL1 and EL2)
3. Do memory barrier operation (isb) to ensure all
   system register writes are done.
4. Restore TCR and SCTLR registers (for EL1 and EL2)

Errata details are available for various CPUs as below:
Cortex-A76: 1165522
Cortex-A72: 1319367
Cortex-A57: 1319537
Cortex-A55: 1530923
Cortex-A53: 1530924

More details can be found in mail-chain:

Currently, Workaround is implemented as build option which is default
disabled.

Merge the previously introduced arm_fconf_io_storage into arm_io_storage. This
removes the duplicate io_policies and functions definition.

This patch:
- replace arm_io_storage.c with the content of arm_fconf_io_storage.c
- rename the USE_FCONF_BASED_IO option into ARM_IO_IN_DTB.
- use the ARM_IO_IN_DTB option to compile out io_policies moved in dtb.
- propagate DEFINES when parsing dts.
- use ARM_IO_IN_DTB to include or not uuid nodes in fw_config dtb.
- set the ARM_IO_IN_DTB to 0 by default for fvp. This ensure that the behavior
  of fvp stays the same as it was before the introduction of fconf.

Following build flags have been added to support optional firmware
encryption:

- FW_ENC_STATUS: Top level firmware's encryption numeric flag, values:
    0: Encryption is done with Secret Symmetric Key (SSK) which is
       common for a class of devices.
    1: Encryption is done with Binding Secret Symmetric Key (BSSK) which
       is unique per device.

- ENC_KEY: A 32-byte (256-bit) symmetric key in hex string format. It
    could be SSK or BSSK depending on FW_ENC_STATUS flag.

- ENC_NONCE: A 12-byte (96-bit) encryption nonce or Initialization Vector
    (IV) in hex string format.

- ENCRYPT_BL31: Binary flag to enable encryption of BL31 firmware.

- ENCRYPT_BL32: Binary flag to enable encryption of Secure BL32 payload.

Similar flags can be added to encrypt other firmwares as well depending
on use-cases.

This patch introduces a build flag which allows the xlat tables
to be mapped in a read-only region within BL31 memory. It makes it
much harder for someone who has acquired the ability to write to
arbitrary secure memory addresses to gain control of the
translation tables.

The memory attributes of the descriptors describing the tables
themselves are changed to read-only secure data. This change
happens at the end of BL31 runtime setup. Until this point, the
tables have read-write permissions. This gives a window of
opportunity for changes to be made to the tables with the MMU on
(e.g. reclaiming init code). No changes can be made to the tables
with the MMU turned on from this point onwards. This change is also
enabled for sp_min and tspd.

To make all this possible, the base table was moved to .rodata. The
penalty we pay is that now .rodata must be aligned to the size of
the base table (512B alignment). Still, this is better than putting
the base table with the higher level tables in the xlat_table
section, as that would cost us a full 4KB page.

Changing the tables from read-write to read-only cannot be done with
the MMU on, as the break-before-make sequence would invalidate the
descriptor which resolves the level 3 page table where that very
descriptor is located. This would make the translation required for
writing the changes impossible, generating an MMU fault.

The caches are also flushed.

Some platforms are extremely memory constrained and must split BL31
between multiple non-contiguous areas in SRAM. Allow the NOBITS
sections (.bss, stacks, page tables, and coherent memory) to be placed
in a separate region of RAM from the loaded firmware image.

Because the NOBITS region may be at a lower address than the rest of
BL31, __RW_{START,END}__ and __BL31_{START,END}__ cannot include this
region, or el3_entrypoint_common would attempt to invalidate the dcache
for the entire address space. New symbols __NOBITS_{START,END}__ are
added when SEPARATE_NOBITS_REGION is enabled, and the dcached for the
NOBITS region is invalidated separately.

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

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()

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.

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.

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.
