      Cortex-Axx: Unconditionally apply CPU reset operations · c66fad93
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      In the Cortex-A35/A53/A57 CPUs library code, some of the CPU specific
      reset operations are skipped if they have already been applied in a
      previous invocation of the reset handler. This precaution is not
      required, as all these operations can be reapplied safely.
      
      This patch removes the unneeded test-before-set instructions in
      the reset handler for these CPUs.

      Disable non-temporal hint on Cortex-A53/57 · 54035fc4
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      The LDNP/STNP instructions as implemented on Cortex-A53 and
      Cortex-A57 do not behave in a way most programmers expect, and will
      most probably result in a significant speed degradation to any code
      that employs them. The ARMv8-A architecture (see Document ARM DDI
      0487A.h, section D3.4.3) allows cores to ignore the non-temporal hint
      and treat LDNP/STNP as LDP/STP instead.
      
      This patch introduces 2 new build flags:
      A53_DISABLE_NON_TEMPORAL_HINT and A57_DISABLE_NON_TEMPORAL_HINT
      to enforce this behaviour on Cortex-A53 and Cortex-A57. They are
      enabled by default.
      
      The string printed in debug builds when a specific CPU errata
      workaround is compiled in but skipped at runtime has been
      generalised, so that it can be reused for the non-temporal hint use
      case as well.

      Fix PSCI CPU ON race when setting state to ON_PENDING · 203cdfe2
      Soby Mathew authored
      When a CPU is powered down using PSCI CPU OFF API, it disables its caches
      and updates its `aff_info_state` to OFF. The corresponding cache line is
      invalidated by the CPU so that the update will be observed by other CPUs
      running with caches enabled. There is a possibility that another CPU
      which has been trying to turn ON this CPU via PSCI CPU ON API,
      has already seen the update to `aff_info_state` and proceeds to update
      the state to ON_PENDING prior to the cache invalidation. This may result
      in the update of the state to ON_PENDING being discarded.
      
      This patch fixes this issue by making sure that the update of `aff_info_state`
      to ON_PENDING sticks by reading back the value after the cache flush and
      retrying it if not updated. The patch also adds a dsbish() to
      `psci_do_cpu_off()` to ensure ordering of the update to `aff_info_state`
      prior to cache line invalidation.
      
      Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#349

      Use tf_printf() for debug logs from xlat_tables.c · d30ac1c3
      Soby Mathew authored
      The debug prints used to debug translation table setup in xlat_tables.c
      used the `printf()` standard library function instead of the stack
      optimized `tf_printf()` API. DEBUG_XLAT_TABLE option was used to enable
      debug logs within xlat_tables.c and it configured a much larger stack
      size for the platform in case it was enabled. This patch modifies these
      debug prints within xlat_tables.c to use tf_printf() and modifies the format
      specifiers to be compatible with tf_printf(). The debug prints are now enabled
      if the VERBOSE prints are enabled in Trusted Firmware via LOG_LEVEL build
      option.
      
      The much larger stack size definition when DEBUG_XLAT_TABLE is defined
      is no longer required and the platform ports are modified to remove this
      stack size definition.

      Porting Guide: Clarify identity-mapping requirement · ef7fb9e4
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      The memory translation library in Trusted Firmware supports
      non-identity mappings for Physical to Virtual addresses since commit
      f984ce84. However, the porting guide hasn't been updated
      accordingly and still mandates the platform ports to use
      identity-mapped page tables for all addresses.
      
      This patch removes this out-dated information from the Porting Guide
      and clarifies in which circumstances non-identity mapping may safely
      be used.

      This patch reworks the section about booting an EL3 payload in the
      User Guide:
      
       - Centralize all EL3 payload related information in the same
         section.
      
       - Mention the possibility to program the EL3 payload in flash memory
         and execute it in place.
      
       - Provide model parameters for both the Base and Foundation FVPs.
      
       - Provide some guidance to boot an EL3 payload on Juno.

      Disable PL011 UART before configuring it · 9400b40e
      Juan Castillo authored
      The PL011 TRM (ARM DDI 0183G) specifies that the UART must be
      disabled before any of the control registers are programmed. The
      PL011 driver included in TF does not disable the UART, so the
      initialization in BL2 and BL31 is violating this requirement
      (and potentially in BL1 if the UART is enabled after reset).
      
      This patch modifies the initialization function in the PL011
      console driver to disable the UART before programming the
      control registers.
      
      Register clobber list and documentation updated.
