The Firmware Image Package (FIP) driver allows for data to be loaded
from a FIP on platform storage. The FVP supports loading bootloader
images from a FIP located in NOR FLASH.

The implemented FVP policy states that bootloader images will be
loaded from a FIP in NOR FLASH if available and fall back to loading
individual images from semi-hosting.

NOTE:
- BL3-3(e.g. UEFI) is loaded into DRAM and needs to be configured
  to run from the BL33_BASE address. This is currently set to
  DRAM_BASE+128MB for the FVP.

This tool can be used to create a Firmware Image Packages (FIP). These
FIPs store a combined set of firmware images with a Table of Contents
(ToC) that can be loaded by the firmware from platform storage.

- Add uuid.h from FreeBSD.
- Use symbolic links to shared headers otherwise unwanted headers and
  definitions are pulled in.
- A FIP is created as part of the default FVP build.
- A BL3-3 image(e.g. UEFI) must be provided.

The modified implementation uses the IO abstraction rather than
making direct semi-hosting calls.  The semi-hosting driver is now
registered for the FVP platform during initialisation of each boot
stage where it is used.  Additionally, the FVP platform includes a
straightforward implementation of 'plat_get_image_source' which
provides a generic means for the 'load_image' function to determine
how to access the image data.

This is intended primarily for use as a storage abstraction.
It allows operations such as image-loading to be implemented
in a platform-independent fashion.  Each platform registers
a set of IO drivers during initialisation.  The platform must
also provide a function that will return a device and a specifier
that can be used to access specified content.

Clients of the API will primarily use device and entity handles.
The term "entity" is deliberately vague, to allow for different
representations of content accessed using different types of
specifier, but will often be interpreted as a "file" where the
specifier will normally be its path.

This commit builds, but is intended to be paired with a sample
implementation of "load_image" using a semi-hosting driver on FVP.

The psci implementation does not track target affinity level requests
specified during cpu_suspend calls correctly as per the following
example.

1. cpu0.cluster0 calls cpu_suspend with the target affinity level as 0
2. Only the cpu0.cluster0 is powered down while cluster0 remains
   powered up
3. cpu1.cluster0 calls cpu_off to power itself down to highest
   possible affinity level
4. cluster0 will be powered off even though cpu0.cluster0 does not
   allow cluster shutdown

This patch introduces reference counts at affinity levels > 0 to track
the number of cpus which want an affinity instance at level X to
remain powered up. This instance can be turned off only if its
reference count is 0. Cpus still undergo the normal state transitions
(ON, OFF, ON_PENDING, SUSPEND) but the higher levels can only be
either ON or OFF depending upon their reference count.

The above issue is thus fixed as follows:

1. cluster0's reference count is incremented by two when cpu0 and cpu1
   are initially powered on.

2. cpu0.cluster0 calls cpu_suspend with the target affinity level as
   0. This does not affect the cluster0 reference count.

3. Only the cpu0.cluster0 is powered down while cluster0 remains
   powered up as it has a non-zero reference count.

4. cpu1.cluster0 call cpu_off to power itself down to highest possible
   affinity level. This decrements the cluster0 reference count.

5. cluster0 is still not powered off since its reference count will at
   least be 1 due to the restriction placed by cpu0.

The secure context saved and restored across a cpu_suspend operation
can be more than just the state of the secure system registers e.g. we
also need to save the affinity level till which the cpu is being
powered down. This patch creates a suspend_context data structure
which includes the system register context. This will allow other bits
to be saved and restored as well in subsequent patches.

The GICv3 distributor can have more ports than CPUs are available in
the system. Probe all re-distributors and use the matching affinity
levels as specified by each core and re-distributor to decide which
re-distributor to use with which CPU core.

If a core cannot be matched with a re-distributor, the core panics and
is placed in an endless loop.

Traps when accessing architectural features are disabled by clearing bits
in CPTR_EL3 during early boot, including accesses to floating point
registers. The value of this register was previously undetermined, causing
unwanted traps to EL3. Future EL3 code (for example, context save/restore
code) may use floating point registers, although they are not used by current
code.

Also, the '-mgeneral-regs-only' flag is enabled in the GCC settings to
prevent generation of code that uses floating point registers.

GIC setup code which used to be in bl31_plat_setup.c is now in fvp_gic.c
to simplify future changes to other bootloader stages.  This patch moves
code from bl31_plat_setup.c to fvp_gic.c, simplifies the include file
list for bl31_plat_setup.c, moves GIC declarations from the bl31.h header
file into the platform.h, and reworks files according to coding style
guide.

SPSR is a 32-bit register and so its size should be reflected in
the gp_regs structure.  This patch fixes the type of gp_regs.spsr
to use a 32-bit variable.  It also makes the size of the other
register fields more explicit.

  simplify the history as interpreted by 'git'. The split is
  between the move/rename and addition of new files.
- Remove dependency on toolchain C library headers and functions in
  order to ensure behavioural compatibility between toolchains.
- Use FreeBSD as reference for C library implementation.
- Do not let GCC use default library include paths.
- Remove unused definitions in modified headers and implementations.
- Move C library files to 'lib/stdlib' and 'include/stdlib'.
- Break std.c functions out into separate files.

ns_entry_info used to be a per-cpu array.  This is a waste of space
because it is only accessed by the primary CPU on the cold boot path.

Platform setup code has to reserve some memory for storing the
memory layout information.  It is populated in early platform setup
code.

blx_get_sec_mem_layout() functions used to return a copy of this
structure.  This patch modifies blx_get_sec_mem_layout() functions
so that they now directly return a pointer to their memory layout
structure.  It ensures that the memory layout returned by
blx_get_sec_mem_layout() is always up-to-date and also avoids a
useless copy of the meminfo structure.

Also rename blx_get_sec_mem_layout() to blx_plat_sec_mem_layout()
to make it clear those functions are platform specific.

This patch:

1. removes a duplicate assertion to check that the only error
   condition that can be returned while turning a cpu off is
   PSCI_E_DENIED. Having this assertion after calling
   psci_afflvl_off() is sufficient.

2. corrects some incorrect usage of 'its' vs 'it is'

3. removes some unwanted white spaces

This patch removes the duplicate declaration of psci_cpu_on in psci.h
and moves the constants for the system level implementation of the
generic timer from arch_helpers.h to arch.h. All other architectural
constants are defined in arch.h so there is no need to add them to
arch_helpers.h

This patch fixes the following constant values in the psci.h:

1. The affinity level shift value in the power_state parameter of the
   cpu_suspend psci call. The previous value was preventing shutdown
   of the affinity level 1.

2. The values used for affinity state constants (ON, OFF,
   ON_PENDING). They did not match the values expected to be returned
   by the affinity_info psci api as mentioned in the spec.

3. The state id shift value in the power_state parameter of the
   cpu_suspend psci call.

The runtime exception handling assembler code used magic numbers for
saving and restoring the general purpose register context on stack
memory. The memory is interpreted as a 'gp_regs' structure and the
magic numbers are offsets to members of this structure. This patch
replaces the magic number offsets with constants. It also adds compile
time assertions to prevent an incorrect assembler view of this
structure.

Any asynchronous exception caused by the firmware should be handled
in the firmware itself.  For this reason, unmask SError exceptions
(and Debug ones as well) on all boot paths.  Also route external
abort and SError interrupts to EL3, otherwise they will target EL1.
