      Initialise cpu ops after enabling data cache · 12e7c4ab
      Vikram Kanigiri authored
      The cpu-ops pointer was initialized before enabling the data cache in the cold
      and warm boot paths. This required a DCIVAC cache maintenance operation to
      invalidate any stale cache lines resident in other cpus.
      
      This patch moves this initialization to the bl31_arch_setup() function
      which is always called after the data cache and MMU has been enabled.
      
      This change removes the need:
       1. for the DCIVAC cache maintenance operation.
       2. to initialise the CPU ops upon resumption from a PSCI CPU_SUSPEND
          call since memory contents are always preserved in this case.

      Fix the Cortex-A57 reset handler register usage · 683f788f
      Soby Mathew authored
      The CPU specific reset handlers no longer have the freedom
      of using any general purpose register because it is being invoked
      by the BL3-1 entry point in addition to BL1. The Cortex-A57 CPU
      specific reset handler was overwriting x20 register which was being
      used by the BL3-1 entry point to save the entry point information.
      This patch fixes this bug by reworking the register allocation in the
      Cortex-A57 reset handler to avoid using x20. The patch also
      explicitly mentions the register clobber list for each of the
      callee functions invoked by the reset handler

      stdlib: add missing features to build PolarSSL · e509d057
      Juan Castillo authored
      This patch adds the missing features to the C library included
      in the Trusted Firmware to build PolarSSL:
      
        - strcasecmp() function
        - exit() function
        - sscanf()* function
        - time.h header file (and its dependencies)
      
      * NOTE: the sscanf() function is not a real implementation. It just
      returns the number of expected arguments by counting the number of
      '%' characters present in the formar string. This return value is
      good enough for PolarSSL because during the certificate parsing
      only the return value is checked. The certificate validity period
      is ignored.

      Call reset handlers upon BL3-1 entry. · 79a97b2e
      Yatharth Kochar authored
      This patch adds support to call the reset_handler() function in BL3-1 in the
      cold and warm boot paths when another Boot ROM reset_handler() has already run.
      
      This means the BL1 and BL3-1 versions of the CPU and platform specific reset
      handlers may execute different code to each other. This enables a developer to
      perform additional actions or undo actions already performed during the first
      call of the reset handlers e.g. apply additional errata workarounds.
      
      Typically, the reset handler will be first called from the BL1 Boot ROM. Any
      additional functionality can be added to the reset handler when it is called
      from BL3-1 resident in RW memory. The constant FIRST_RESET_HANDLER_CALL is used
      to identify whether this is the first version of the reset handler code to be
      executed or an overridden version of the code.
      
      The Cortex-A57 errata workarounds are applied only if they have not already been
      applied.

      Move bakery algorithm implementation out of coherent memory · 8c5fe0b5
      Soby Mathew authored
      This patch moves the bakery locks out of coherent memory to normal memory.
      This implies that the lock information needs to be placed on a separate cache
      line for each cpu. Hence the bakery_lock_info_t structure is allocated in the
      per-cpu data so as to minimize memory wastage. A similar platform per-cpu
      data is introduced for the platform locks.
      
      As a result of the above changes, the bakery lock api is completely changed.
      Earlier, a reference to the lock structure was passed to the lock implementation.
      Now a unique-id (essentially an index into the per-cpu data array) and an offset
      into the per-cpu data for bakery_info_t needs to be passed to the lock
      implementation.

      Remove the wfe() for bounded wait in bakery_lock · d4f4ad90
      Soby Mathew authored
      This patch is an optimization in the bakery_lock_get() function
      which removes the wfe() when waiting for other contenders to choose
      their ticket i.e when their `entering` flag is set. Since the time
      taken to execute bakery_get_ticket() by other contenders is bounded,
      this wait is a bounded time wait. Hence the removal of wfe() and the
      corresponding sev() and dsb() in bakery_get_ticket() may result
      in better time performance during lock acquisition.

      Invalidate the dcache after initializing cpu-ops · 09997346
      Soby Mathew authored
      This patch fixes a crash due to corruption of cpu_ops
      data structure. During the secondary CPU boot, after the
      cpu_ops has been initialized in the per cpu-data, the
      dcache lines need to invalidated so that the update in
      memory can be seen later on when the dcaches are turned ON.
      Also, after initializing the psci per cpu data, the dcache
      lines are flushed so that they are written back to memory
      and dirty dcache lines are avoided.

      Optimize Cortex-A57 cluster power down sequence on Juno · 5541bb3f
      Soby Mathew authored
      This patch optimizes the Cortex-A57 cluster power down sequence by not
      flushing the Level1 data cache. The L1 data cache and the L2 unified
      cache are inclusive. A flush of the L2 by set/way flushes any dirty
      lines from the L1 as well. This is a known safe deviation from the
      Cortex-A57 TRM defined power down sequence. This optimization can be
      enabled by the platform through the 'SKIP_A57_L1_FLUSH_PWR_DWN' build
      flag. Each Cortex-A57 based platform must make its own decision on
      whether to use the optimization.
      
      This patch also renames the cpu-errata-workarounds.md to
      cpu-specific-build-macros.md as this facilitates documentation
      of both CPU Specific errata and CPU Specific Optimization
      build macros.

      Apply errata workarounds only when major/minor revisions match. · 7395a725
      Soby Mathew authored
      Prior to this patch, the errata workarounds were applied for any version
      of the CPU in the release build and in the debug build an assert
      failure resulted when the revision did not match. This patch applies
      errata workarounds in the Cortex-A57 reset handler only if the 'variant'
      and 'revision' fields read from the MIDR_EL1 match. In the debug build,
      a warning message is printed for each errata workaround which is not
      applied.

      This patch adds CPU core and cluster power down sequences to the CPU specific
      operations framework introduced in a earlier patch. Cortex-A53, Cortex-A57 and
      generic AEM sequences have been added. The latter is suitable for the

      saved in the per-cpu data so that it can be easily accessed during power down
      seqeunces.
      
      An optional platform API has been introduced to allow a platform to disable the
      Accelerator Coherency Port (ACP) during a cluster power down sequence. The weak
      definition of this function (plat_disable_acp()) does not take any action. It
      should be overriden with a strong definition if the ACP is present on a
      platform.

      Remove redundant io_init() function · 6d16ce0b
      Dan Handley authored
      The intent of io_init() was to allow platform ports to provide
      a data object (io_plat_data_t) to the IO storage framework to
      allocate into. The abstraction was incomplete because io_plat_data_t
      uses a platform defined constant and the IO storage framework
      internally allocates other arrays using platform defined constants.
      
      This change simplifies the implementation by instantiating the
      supporting objects in the IO storage framework itself. There is now
      no need for the platform to call io_init().
      
      The FVP port has been updated accordingly.
      
      THIS CHANGE REQUIRES ALL PLATFORM PORTS THAT USE THE IO STORAGE
      FRAMEWORK TO BE UDPATED.

      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.

      Split platform.h into separate headers · 5f0cdb05
      Dan Handley authored
      Previously, platform.h contained many declarations and definitions
      used for different purposes. This file has been split so that:
      
      * Platform definitions used by common code that must be defined
        by the platform are now in platform_def.h. The exact include
        path is exported through $PLAT_INCLUDES in the platform makefile.
      
      * Platform definitions specific to the FVP platform are now in
        /plat/fvp/fvp_def.h.
      
      * Platform API declarations specific to the FVP platform are now
        in /plat/fvp/fvp_private.h.
      
      * The remaining platform API declarations that must be ported by
        each platform are still in platform.h but this file has been
        moved to /include/plat/common since this can be shared by all
        platforms.

      Use secure timer to generate S-EL1 interrupts · fa9c08b7
      Achin Gupta authored
      This patch adds support in the TSP to program the secure physical
      generic timer to generate a EL-1 interrupt every half second. It also
      adds support for maintaining the timer state across power management
      operations. The TSPD ensures that S-EL1 can access the timer by
      programming the SCR_EL3.ST bit.
      
      This patch does not actually enable the timer. This will be done in a
      subsequent patch once the complete framework for handling S-EL1
      interrupts is in place.

      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.
      
      Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#79 Improve reporting of unhandled exception

      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.
