      plat/arm/board/arm_fpga: Compile with additional CPU libraries · 4b5793c9
      Oliver Swede authored
      
      
      This change is part of the goal of enabling the port to be compatible
      with multiple FPGA images.
      
      BL31 behaves differently depending on whether or not the CPUs in the
      system use cache coherency, and as a result any CPU libraries that are
      compiled together must serve processors that are consistent in this
      regard.
      
      This compiles a different set of CPU libraries depending on whether or
      not the HW_ASSISTED_COHERENCY is enabled at build-time to indicate the
      CPUs support hardware-level support for cache coherency. This build
      flag is used in the makefile in the same way as the Arm FVP port.

      plat/arm/board/arm_fpga: Enable position-independent execution · 62056e4e
      Oliver Swede authored
      
      
      This allows the BL31 port to run with position-independent execution
      enabled so that it can be ran from any address in the system.
      This increases the flexibility of the image, allowing it to be ran from
      other locations rather than only its hardcoded absolute address
      (currently set to the typical DRAM base of 2GB). This may be useful for
      future images that describe system configurations with other memory
      layouts (e.g. where SRAM is included).
      
      It does this by setting ENABLE_PIE=1 and changing the absolute
      address to 0. The load address of bl31.bin can then be specified by
      the -l [load address] argument in the fpga-run command (additionally,
      this address is required by any preceding payloads that specify the
      start address. For ELF payloads this is usually extracted automatically
      by reading the entrypoint address in the header, however bl31.bin is a
      different file format so has this additional dependency).

      plat/arm/board/arm_fpga: Enable port for alternative cluster configurations · e726c758
      Oliver Swede authored
      
      
      This change is part of the goal of enabling the port to be compatible
      with multiple FPGA images.
      
      The BL31 port that is uploaded as a payload to the FPGA with an image
      should cater for a wide variety of system configurations. This patch
      makes the necessary changes to enable it to function with images whose
      cluster configurations may be larger (either by utilizing more
      clusters, more CPUs per cluster, more threads in each CPU, or a
      combination) than the initial image being used for testing.
      
      As part of this, the hard-coded values that configure the size of the
      array describing the topology of the power domain tree are increased
      to max. 8 clusters, max. 8 cores per cluster & max 4 threads per core.
      This ensures the port works with cluster configurations up to these
      sizes. When there are too many entries for the number of available PEs,
      e.g. if there is a variable number of CPUs between clusters, then there
      will be empty entries in the array. This is permitted and the PSCI
      library will still function as expected. While this increases its size,
      this shouldn't be an issue in the context of the size of BL31, and is
      worth the trade-off for the extra compatibility.

      plat/arm/board/arm_fpga: Initialize the Generic Interrupt Controller · 87762bce
      Oliver Swede authored
      
      
      This initializes the GIC using the Arm GIC drivers in TF-A.
      The initial FPGA image uses a GIC600 implementation, and so that its
      power controller is enabled, this platform port calls the corresponding
      implementation-specific routines.

      plat/arm/board/arm_fpga: Initialize the System Counter · 2d696d18
      Oliver Swede authored
      
      
      This sets the frequency of the system counter so that the Delay Timer
      driver programs the correct value to CNTCRL. This value depends on
      the FPGA image being used, and is 10MHz for the initial test image.
      Once configured, the BL31 platform setup sequence then enables the
      system counter.

      plat/arm/board/arm_fpga: Add PSCI implementation for FPGA images · 7ee4db6e
      Oliver Swede authored
      
      
      This adds a basic PSCI implementation allow secondary CPUs to be
      released from an initial state and continue through to the warm boot
      entrypoint.
      
      Each secondary CPU is kept in a holding pen, whereby it polls the value
      representing its hold state, by reading this from an array that acts as
      a table for all the PEs. The hold states are initially set to 0 for all
      cores to indicate that the executing core should continue polling.
      To prevent the secondary CPUs from interfering with the platform's
      initialization, they are only updated by the primary CPU once the cold
      boot sequence has completed and fpga_pwr_domain_on(mpidr) is called.
      The polling target CPU will then read 1 (which indicates that it should
      branch to the warm reset entrypoint) and then jump to that address
      rather than continue polling.
      
      In addition to the initial polling behaviour of the secondary CPUs
      before their warm boot reset sequence, they are also placed in a
      low-power wfe() state at the end of each poll; accordingly, the PSCI
      fpga_pwr_domain_on(mpidr) function also signals an event to all cores
      (after updating the target CPU's hold entry) to wake them from this
      state, allowing any secondary CPUs that are still polling to check
      their hold state again.
      This method is in accordance with both the PSCI and Linux kernel
      recommendations, as the lessened overhead reduces the energy
      consumption associated with the busy-loop.
      
      The table of hold entries is implemented by a global array as shared SRAM
      (which is used by other platforms in similar implementations) is not
      available on the FPGA images.

      plat/arm/board/arm_fpga: Use preloaded BL33 alternative boot flow · 5cfe699f
      Oliver Swede authored
      This makes use of the PRELOADED_BL33_BASE flag to indicate to BL31 that
      the BL33 payload (kernel) has already been loaded and resides in memory;
      BL31 will then jump to the non-secure address.
      
      For this port the BL33 payload is the Linux kernel, and in accordance
      with the pre-kernel setup requirements (as specified in the `Booting
      AArch64 Linux' documentation:
      https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/arm64/booting.txt
      
      ),
      this change also sets up the primary CPU's registers x0-x3 so they are
      the expected values, which includes the address of the DTB at x0.
      
      An external linker script is currently required to combine BL31, the
      BL33 payload, and any other software images to create an ELF file that
      can be uploaded to the FPGA board along with the bit file. It therefore
      has dependencies on the value of PRELOADED_BL33_BASE (kernel base) and
      the DTB base (plus any other relevant base addresses used to
      distinguish the different ELF sections), both of which are set in this
      patch.

      plat/arm/board/arm_fpga: Enable basic BL31 port for an FPGA image · 536d906a
      Oliver Swede authored
      
      
      This adds the minimal functions and definitions to create a basic
      BL31 port for an initial FPGA image, in order for the port to be
      uploaded to one the FPGA boards operated by an internal group within
      Arm, such that BL31 runs as a payload for an image.
      
      Future changes will enable the port for a wide range of system
      configurations running on the FPGA boards to ensure compatibility with
      multiple FPGA images.
      
      It is expected that this will replace the FPGA fork of the Linux kernel
      bootwrapper by performing similar secure-world initialization and setup
      through the use of drivers and other well-established methods, before
      passing control to the kernel, which will act as the BL33 payload and
      run in EL2NS.
      
      This change introduces a basic, loadable port with the console
      initialized by setting the baud rate and base address of the UART as
      configured by the Zeus image.
      
      It is a BL31-only port, and RESET_TO_BL31 is enabled to reflect this.
