AArch32 only platforms can boot the OP-TEE secure firmware as a BL32 secure payload. Such configuration can be defined through AARCH32_SP=optee. The source files can rely on AARCH32_SP_OPTEE to condition OP-TEE boot specific instruction sequences. OP-TEE does not expect ARM Trusted Firmware formatted structure as boot argument. Load sequence is expected to have already loaded to OP-TEE boot arguments into the bl32 entrypoint info structure. Last, AArch32 platform can only boot AArch32 OP-TEE images.

There are cases where we need to manipulate image information before the load. For example, for decompressing data, we cannot load the compressed images to their final destination. Instead, we need to load them to the temporary buffer for the decompressor. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

This patch modifies the makefiles to avoid the definition of BL1_SOURCES and BL2_SOURCES in the tbbr makefiles, and it lets to the platform makefiles to define them if they actually need these images. In the case of BL2_AT_EL3 BL1 will not be needed usually because the Boot ROM will jump directly to BL2.

This patch enables BL2 to execute at the highest exception level without any dependancy on TF BL1. This enables platforms which already have a non-TF Boot ROM to directly load and execute BL2 and subsequent BL stages without need for BL1. This is not currently possible because BL2 executes at S-EL1 and cannot jump straight to EL3.

When defining different sections in linker scripts it is needed to align them to multiples of the page size. In most linker scripts this is done by aligning to the hardcoded value 4096 instead of PAGE_SIZE. This may be confusing when taking a look at all the codebase, as 4096 is used in some parts that aren't meant to be a multiple of the page size.

Previously, get_next_bl_params_from_mem_params_desc() populated arg0 in the EL3 runtime entrypoint with a bl_params_t pointer. This is the responsibility of the generic LOAD_IMAGE_V2 framework instead of the descriptor-based image loading utility functions. Therefore this patch moves that code to bl2_load_images(). Also, this patch moves the code that flushes the bl_params structure to flush_bl_params_desc(), together with the other descriptor-based image loading flushing code.

Introduce new build option ENABLE_STACK_PROTECTOR. It enables compilation of all BL images with one of the GCC -fstack-protector-* options. A new platform function plat_get_stack_protector_canary() is introduced. It returns a value that is used to initialize the canary for stack corruption detection. Returning a random value will prevent an attacker from predicting the value and greatly increase the effectiveness of the protection. A message is printed at the ERROR level when a stack corruption is detected. To be effective, the global data must be stored at an address lower than the base of the stacks. Failure to do so would allow an attacker to overwrite the canary as part of an attack which would void the protection. FVP implementation of plat_get_stack_protector_canary is weak as there is no real source of entropy on the FVP. It therefore relies on a timer's value, which could be predictable.

Introduce zeromem_dczva function on AArch64 that can handle unaligned addresses and make use of DC ZVA instruction to zero a whole block at a time. This zeroing takes place directly in the cache to speed it up without doing external memory access. Remove the zeromem16 function on AArch64 and replace it with an alias to zeromem. This zeromem16 function is now deprecated. Remove the 16-bytes alignment constraint on __BSS_START__ in firmware-design.md as it is now not mandatory anymore (it used to comply with zeromem16 requirements). Change the 16-bytes alignment constraints in SP min's linker script to a 8-bytes alignment constraint as the AArch32 zeromem implementation is now more efficient on 8-bytes aligned addresses. Introduce zero_normalmem and zeromem helpers in platform agnostic header that are implemented this way: * AArch32: * zero_normalmem: zero using usual data access * zeromem: alias for zero_normalmem * AArch64: * zero_normalmem: zero normal memory using DC ZVA instruction (needs MMU enabled) * zeromem: zero using usual data access Usage guidelines: in most cases, zero_normalmem should be preferred. There are 2 scenarios where zeromem (or memset) must be used instead: * Code that must run with MMU disabled (which means all memory is considered device memory for data accesses). * Code that fills device memory with null bytes. Optionally, the following rule can be applied if performance is important: * Code zeroing small areas (few bytes) that are not secrets should use memset to take advantage of compiler optimizations. Note: Code zeroing security-related critical information should use zero_normalmem/zeromem instead of memset to avoid removal by compilers' optimizations in some cases or misbehaving versions of GCC.

There are many instances in ARM Trusted Firmware where control is transferred to functions from which return isn't expected. Such jumps are made using 'bl' instruction to provide the callee with the location from which it was jumped to. Additionally, debuggers infer the caller by examining where 'lr' register points to. If a 'bl' of the nature described above falls at the end of an assembly function, 'lr' will be left pointing to a location outside of the function range. This misleads the debugger back trace. This patch defines a 'no_ret' macro to be used when jumping to functions from which return isn't expected. The macro ensures to use 'bl' instruction for the jump, and also, for debug builds, places a 'nop' instruction immediately thereafter (unless instructed otherwise) so as to leave 'lr' pointing within the function range.

This patch adds changes in BL1 & BL2 to use new version of image loading to load the BL images. Following are the changes in BL1: -Use new version of load_auth_image() to load BL2 -Modified `bl1_init_bl2_mem_layout()` to remove using `reserve_mem()` and to calculate `bl2_mem_layout`. `bl2_mem_layout` calculation now assumes that BL1 RW data is at the top of the bl1_mem_layout, which is more restrictive than the previous BL1 behaviour. Following are the changes in BL2: -The `bl2_main.c` is refactored and all the functions for loading BLxx images are now moved to `bl2_image_load.c` `bl2_main.c` now calls a top level `bl2_load_images()` to load all the images that are applicable in BL2. -Added new file `bl2_image_load_v2.c` that uses new version of image loading to load the BL images in BL2. All the above changes are conditionally compiled using the `LOAD_IMAGE_V2` flag. Change-Id: Ic6dcde5a484495bdc05526d9121c59fa50c1bf23

At the moment, all BL images share a similar memory layout: they start with their code section, followed by their read-only data section. The two sections are contiguous in memory. Therefore, the end of the code section and the beginning of the read-only data one might share a memory page. This forces both to be mapped with the same memory attributes. As the code needs to be executable, this means that the read-only data stored on the same memory page as the code are executable as well. This could potentially be exploited as part of a security attack. This patch introduces a new build flag called SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA, which isolates the code and read-only data on separate memory pages. This in turn allows independent control of the access permissions for the code and read-only data. This has an impact on memory footprint, as padding bytes need to be introduced between the code and read-only data to ensure the segragation of the two. To limit the memory cost, the memory layout of the read-only section has been changed in this case. - When SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA=0, the layout is unchanged, i.e. the read-only section still looks like this (padding omitted): | ... | +-------------------+ | Exception vectors | +-------------------+ | Read-only data | +-------------------+ | Code | +-------------------+ BLx_BASE In this case, the linker script provides the limits of the whole read-only section. - When SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA=1, the exception vectors and read-only data are swapped, such that the code and exception vectors are contiguous, followed by the read-only data. This gives the following new layout (padding omitted): | ... | +-------------------+ | Read-only data | +-------------------+ | Exception vectors | +-------------------+ | Code | +-------------------+ BLx_BASE In this case, the linker script now exports 2 sets of addresses instead: the limits of the code and the limits of the read-only data. Refer to the Firmware Design guide for more details. This provides platform code with a finer-grained view of the image layout and allows it to map these 2 regions with the appropriate access permissions. Note that SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA applies to all BL images. Change-Id: I936cf80164f6b66b6ad52b8edacadc532c935a49

Firmware update(a.k.a FWU) feature is part of the TBB architecture. BL1 is responsible for carrying out the FWU process if platform specific code detects that it is needed. This patch adds support for FWU feature support in BL1 which is included by enabling `TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT` compile time flag. This patch adds bl1_fwu.c which contains all the core operations of FWU, which are; SMC handler, image copy, authentication, execution and resumption. It also adds bl1.h introducing #defines for all BL1 SMCs. Following platform porting functions are introduced: int bl1_plat_mem_check(uintptr_t mem_base, unsigned int mem_size, unsigned int flags); This function can be used to add platform specific memory checks for the provided base/size for the given security state. The weak definition will invoke `assert()` and return -ENOMEM. __dead2 void bl1_plat_fwu_done(void *cookie, void *reserved); This function can be used to initiate platform specific procedure to mark completion of the FWU process. The weak definition waits forever calling `wfi()`. plat_bl1_common.c contains weak definitions for above functions. FWU process starts when platform detects it and return the image_id other than BL2_IMAGE_ID by using `bl1_plat_get_next_image_id()` in `bl1_main()`. NOTE: User MUST provide platform specific real definition for bl1_plat_mem_check() in order to use it for Firmware update. Change-Id: Ice189a0885d9722d9e1dd03f76cac1aceb0e25ed

The primary usage of `RUN_IMAGE` SMC function id, used by BL2 is to make a request to BL1 to execute BL31.

This patch adds support for booting EL3 payloads on CSS platforms, for example Juno. In this scenario, the Trusted Firmware follows its normal boot flow up to the point where it would normally pass control to the BL31 image. At this point, it jumps to the EL3 payload entry point address instead. Before handing over to the EL3 payload, the data SCP writes for AP at the beginning of the Trusted SRAM is restored, i.e. we zero the first 128 bytes and restore the SCP Boot configuration. The latter is saved before transferring the BL30 image to SCP and is restored just after the transfer (in BL2). The goal is to make it appear that the EL3 payload is the first piece of software to run on the target. The BL31 entrypoint info structure is updated to make the primary CPU jump to the EL3 payload instead of the BL31 image. The mailbox is populated with the EL3 payload entrypoint address, which releases the secondary CPUs out of their holding pen (if the SCP has powered them on). The arm_program_trusted_mailbox() function has been exported for this purpose. The TZC-400 configuration in BL2 is simplified: it grants secure access only to the whole DRAM. Other security initialization is unchanged. This alternative boot flow is disabled by default. A new build option EL3_PAYLOAD_BASE has been introduced to enable it and provide the EL3 payload's entry point address. The build system has been modified such that BL31 and BL33 are not compiled and/or not put in the FIP in this case, as those images are not used in this boot flow.

This patch adds an optional API to the platform port: void plat_error_handler(int err) __dead2; The platform error handler is called when there is a specific error condition after which Trusted Firmware cannot continue. While panic() simply prints the crash report (if enabled) and spins, the platform error handler can be used to hand control over to the platform port so it can perform specific bookeeping or post-error actions (for example, reset the system). This function must not return. The parameter indicates the type of error using standard codes from errno.h. Possible errors reported by the generic code are: -EAUTH : a certificate or image could not be authenticated (when Trusted Board Boot is enabled) -ENOENT : the requested image or certificate could not be found or an IO error was detected -ENOMEM : resources exhausted. Trusted Firmware does not use dynamic memory, so this error is usually an indication of an incorrect array size A default weak implementation of this function has been provided. It simply implements an infinite loop. Change-Id: Iffaf9eee82d037da6caa43b3aed51df555e597a3

On the ARMv8 architecture, cache maintenance operations by set/way on the last level of integrated cache do not affect the system cache. This means that such a flush or clean operation could result in the data being pushed out to the system cache rather than main memory. Another CPU could access this data before it enables its data cache or MMU. Such accesses could be serviced from the main memory instead of the system cache. If the data in the sysem cache has not yet been flushed or evicted to main memory then there could be a loss of coherency. The only mechanism to guarantee that the main memory will be updated is to use cache maintenance operations to the PoC by MVA(See section D3.4.11 (System level caches) of ARMv8-A Reference Manual (Issue A.g/ARM DDI0487A.G). This patch removes the reliance of Trusted Firmware on the flush by set/way operation to ensure visibility of data in the main memory. Cache maintenance operations by MVA are now used instead. The following are the broad category of changes: 1. The RW areas of BL2/BL31/BL32 are invalidated by MVA before the C runtime is initialised. This ensures that any stale cache lines at any level of cache are removed. 2. Updates to global data in runtime firmware (BL31) by the primary CPU are made visible to secondary CPUs using a cache clean operation by MVA. 3. Cache maintenance by set/way operations are only used prior to power down. NOTE: NON-UPSTREAM TRUSTED FIRMWARE CODE SHOULD MAKE EQUIVALENT CHANGES IN ORDER TO FUNCTION CORRECTLY ON PLATFORMS WITH SUPPORT FOR SYSTEM CACHES.

BL3-2 image (Secure Payload) is optional. If the image cannot be loaded a warning message is printed and the boot process continues. According to the TBBR document, this behaviour should not apply in case of an authentication error, where the boot process should be aborted. This patch modifies the load_auth_image() function to distinguish between a load error and an authentication error. The caller uses the return value to abort the boot process or continue. In case of authentication error, the memory region used to store the image is wiped clean. Change-Id: I534391d526d514b2a85981c3dda00de67e0e7992

This patch modifies the Trusted Board Boot implementation to use the new authentication framework, making use of the authentication module, the cryto module and the image parser module to authenticate the images in the Chain of Trust. A new function 'load_auth_image()' has been implemented. When TBB is enabled, this function will call the authentication module to authenticate parent images following the CoT up to the root of trust to finally load and authenticate the requested image. The platform is responsible for picking up the right makefiles to build the corresponding cryptographic and image parser libraries. ARM platforms use the mbedTLS based libraries. The platform may also specify what key algorithm should be used to sign the certificates. This is done by declaring the 'KEY_ALG' variable in the platform makefile. FVP and Juno use ECDSA keys. On ARM platforms, BL2 and BL1-RW regions have been increased 4KB each to accommodate the ECDSA code. REMOVED BUILD OPTIONS: * 'AUTH_MOD' Change-Id: I47d436589fc213a39edf5f5297bbd955f15ae867

This patch adds the authentication framework that will be used as the base to implement Trusted Board Boot in the Trusted Firmware. The framework comprises the following modules: - Image Parser Module (IPM) This module is responsible for interpreting images, check their integrity and extract authentication information from them during Trusted Board Boot. The module currently supports three types of images i.e. raw binaries, X509v3 certificates and any type specific to a platform. An image parser library must be registered for each image type (the only exception is the raw image parser, which is included in the main module by default). Each parser library (if used) must export a structure in a specific linker section which contains function pointers to: 1. Initialize the library 2. Check the integrity of the image type supported by the library 3. Extract authentication information from the image - Cryptographic Module (CM) This module is responsible for verifying digital signatures and hashes. It relies on an external cryptographic library to perform the cryptographic operations. To register a cryptographic library, the library must use the REGISTER_CRYPTO_LIB macro, passing function pointers to: 1. Initialize the library 2. Verify a digital signature 3. Verify a hash Failing to register a cryptographic library will generate a build time error. - Authentication Module (AM) This module provides methods to authenticate an image, like hash comparison or digital signatures. It uses the image parser module to extract authentication parameters, the crypto module to perform cryptographic operations and the Chain of Trust to authenticate the images. The Chain of Trust (CoT) is a data structure that defines the dependencies between images and the authentication methods that must be followed to authenticate an image. The Chain of Trust, when added, must provide a header file named cot_def.h with the following definitions: - COT_MAX_VERIFIED_PARAMS Integer value indicating the maximum number of authentication parameters an image can present. This value will be used by the authentication module to allocate the memory required to load the parameters in the image descriptor. Change-Id: Ied11bd5cd410e1df8767a1df23bb720ce7e58178

The Trusted firmware code identifies BL images by name. The platform port defines a name for each image e.g. the IO framework uses this mechanism in the platform function plat_get_image_source(). For a given image name, it returns the handle to the image file which involves comparing images names. In addition, if the image is packaged in a FIP, a name comparison is required to find the UUID for the image. This method is not optimal. This patch changes the interface between the generic and platform code with regard to identifying images. The platform port must now allocate a unique number (ID) for every image. The generic code will use the image ID instead of the name to access its attributes. As a result, the plat_get_image_source() function now takes an image ID as an input parameter. The organisation of data structures within the IO framework has been rationalised to use an image ID as an index into an array which contains attributes of the image such as UUID and name. This prevents the name comparisons. A new type 'io_uuid_spec_t' has been introduced in the IO framework to specify images identified by UUID (i.e. when the image is contained in a FIP file). There is no longer need to maintain a look-up table [iname_name --> uuid] in the io_fip driver code. Because image names are no longer mandatory in the platform port, the debug messages in the generic code will show the image identifier instead of the file name. The platforms that support semihosting to load images (i.e. FVP) must provide the file names as definitions private to the platform. The ARM platform ports and documentation have been updated accordingly. All ARM platforms reuse the image IDs defined in the platform common code. These IDs will be used to access other attributes of an image in subsequent patches. IMPORTANT: applying this patch breaks compatibility for platforms that use TF BL1 or BL2 images or the image loading code. The platform port must be updated to match the new interface.

The return value of bl2_plat_handle_bl30() used to be ignored. This patch modifies the function load_bl30() so that it now checks this return value and returns it to bl2_main(). This patch also unifies the error handling code across the load_blx() functions so that they return a status code in all cases and bl2_main() has the sole responsibility of panicking if appropriate.

In order for the symbol table in the ELF file to contain the size of functions written in assembly, it is necessary to report it to the assembler using the .size directive. To fulfil the above requirements, this patch introduces an 'endfunc' macro which contains the .endfunc and .size directives. It also adds a .func directive to the 'func' assembler macro. The .func/.endfunc have been used so the assembler can fail if endfunc is omitted. Fixes ARM-Software/tf-issues#295 Change-Id: If8cb331b03d7f38fe7e3694d4de26f1075b278fc Signed-off-by: Kévin Petit <kevin.petit@arm.com>
