      ARMv7 may not support Virtualization Extensions · 64cc6e91
      Etienne Carriere authored
      
      
      ARMv7-A Virtualization extensions brings new instructions and resources
      that were supported by later architectures. Reference ARM ARM Issue C.c
      [DDI0406C_C].
      
      ERET and extended MSR/MRS instructions, as specified in [DDI0406C_C] in
      ID_PFR1 description of bits[15:12] (Virtualization Extensions):
       A value of 0b0001 implies implementation of the HVC, ERET, MRS
       (Banked register), and MSR (Banked register) instructions. The ID_ISARs
       do not identify whether these instructions are implemented.
      
      UDIV/SDIV were introduced with the Virtualization extensions, even if
      not strictly related to the virtualization extensions.
      
      If ARMv7 based platform does not set ARM_CORTEX_Ax=yes, platform
      shall define ARMV7_SUPPORTS_VIRTUALIZATION to enable virtualization
      extension related resources.

      Implement log framework · 7f56e9a3
      Soby Mathew authored
      
      
      This patch gives users control over logging messages printed from the C
      code using the LOG macros defined in debug.h Users now have the ability
      to reduce the log_level at run time using the tf_log_set_max_level()
      function. The default prefix string can be defined by platform by
      overriding the `plat_log_get_prefix()` platform API which is also
      introduced in this patch.
      
      The new log framework results in saving of some RO data. For example,
      when BL1 is built for FVP with LOG_LEVEL=LOG_LEVEL_VERBOSE, resulted
      in saving 384 bytes of RO data and increase of 8 bytes of RW data. The
      framework also adds about 108 bytes of code to the release build of FVP.
      
      Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#462

      Fix x30 reporting for unhandled exceptions · 4d91838b
      Julius Werner authored
      
      
      Some error paths that lead to a crash dump will overwrite the value in
      the x30 register by calling functions with the no_ret macro, which
      resolves to a BL instruction. This is not very useful and not what the
      reader would expect, since a crash dump should usually show all
      registers in the state they were in when the exception happened. This
      patch replaces the offending function calls with a B instruction to
      preserve the value in x30.

      Minor refactor of BL2 image load v2 · c2a9ee63
      Dan Handley authored
      
      
      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.

      Add the new build option `ENABLE_ASSERTIONS` that controls whether or
      not assert functions are compiled out. It defaults to 1 for debug builds
      and to 0 for release builds.
      
      Additionally, a following patch will be done to allow this build option
      to hide auxiliary code used for the checks done in an `assert()`. This
      code is is currently under the DEBUG build flag.
      
      Assert messages are now only printed if LOG_LEVEL >= LOG_LEVEL_INFO,
      which is the default for debug builds.
      
      This patch also updates the User Guide.

      Introduce unified API to zero memory · 308d359b
      Douglas Raillard authored
      
      
      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.

      Define and use no_ret macro where no return is expected · a806dad5
      Jeenu Viswambharan authored
      
      
      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.

      AArch32: Common changes needed for BL1/BL2 · 1a0a3f06
      Yatharth Kochar authored
      This patch adds common changes to support AArch32 state in
      BL1 and BL2. Following are the changes:
      
      * Added functions for disabling MMU from Secure state.
      * Added AArch32 specific SMC function.
      * Added semihosting support.
      * Added reporting of unhandled exceptions.
      * Added uniprocessor stack support.
      * Added `el3_entrypoint_common` macro that can be
        shared by BL1 and BL32 (SP_MIN) BL stages. The
        `el3_entrypoint_common` is similar to the AArch64
        counterpart with the main difference in the assembly
        instructions and the registers that are relevant to
        AArch32 execution state.
      * Enabled `LOAD_IMAGE_V2` flag in Makefile for
        `ARCH=aarch32` and added check to make sure that
        platform has not overridden to disable it.

      Add new version of image loading. · 72600226
      Yatharth Kochar authored
      This patch adds capability to load BL images based on image
      descriptors instead of hard coded way of loading BL images.
      This framework is designed such that it can be readily adapted
      by any BL stage that needs to load images.
      
      In order to provide the above capability the following new
      platform functions are introduced:
      
        bl_load_info_t *plat_get_bl_image_load_info(void);
          This function returns pointer to the list of images that the
          platform has populated to load.
      
        bl_params_t *plat_get_next_bl_params(void);
          This function returns a pointer to the shared memory that the
          platform has kept aside to pass trusted firmware related
          information that next BL image needs.
      
        void plat_flush_next_bl_params(void);
          This function flushes to main memory all the params that
          are passed to next image.
      
        int bl2_plat_handle_post_image_load(unsigned int image_id)
          This function can be used by the platforms to update/use
          image information for given `image_id`.
      
      `desc_image_load.c` contains utility functions which can be used
      by the platforms to generate, load and executable, image list
      based on the registered image descriptors.
      
      This patch also adds new version of `load_image/load_auth_image`
      functions in-order to achieve the above capability.
      
      Following are the changes for the new version as compared to old:
        - Refactor the signature and only keep image_id and image_info_t
          arguments. Removed image_base argument as it is already passed
          through image_info_t. Given that the BL image base addresses and
          limit/size are already provided by the platforms, the meminfo_t
          and entry_point_info arguments are not needed to provide/reserve
          the extent of free memory for the given BL image.
      
        - Added check for the image size against the defined max size.
          This is needed because the image size could come from an
          unauthenticated source (e.g. the FIP header).
          To make this check, new member is added to the image_info_t
          struct for identifying the image maximum size.
      
      New flag `LOAD_IMAGE_V2` is added in the Makefile.
      Default value is 0.
      
      NOTE: `TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT` is currently not supported when
            `LOAD_IMAGE_V2` is enabled.

      Remove looping around `plat_report_exception` · 5bbc451e
      Yatharth Kochar authored
      This patch removes the tight loop that calls `plat_report_exception`
      in unhandled exceptions in AArch64 state.
      The new behaviour is to call the `plat_report_exception` only
      once followed by call to `plat_panic_handler`.
      This allows platforms to take platform-specific action when
      there is an unhandled exception, instead of always spinning
      in a tight loop.
      
      Note: This is a subtle break in behaviour for platforms that
            expect `plat_report_exception` to be continuously executed
            when there is an unhandled exception.

      Remove dcache invalidation after image authentication · ad4494dc
      Dan Handley authored
      At the end of successful image authentication in load_auth_image(),
      the data cache for the virtual address range corresponding to the
      image is invalidated (by a call to inv_dcache_range()). The intent
      seems to be to ensure the data caches do not contain any sensitive
      data used during authentication, which subsequent code can read.
      However, this same address range is already flushed (cleaned and
      invalidated by a call to flush_dcache_range()) at the end of
      load_image(), and the subsequent invalidate has no functional
      effect.
      
      This patch removes the redundant call to inv_dcache_range(). It
      also moves the flush_dcache_range() call from the end of load_image()
      to the end of load_auth_image(), so the image data will remain in
      the caches during authentication, improving performance.
      
      This also improves the comments that explain the rationale for
      calling flush_dcache_range() after image loading/authentication.

      AArch32: Add API to invoke runtime service handler · 1ae0a49a
      Soby Mathew authored
      This patch adds an API in runtime service framework to
      invoke the registered handler corresponding to the SMC function
      identifier. This is helpful for AArch32 because the number of
      arguments required by the handler is more than registers
      available as per AArch32 program calling conventions and
      requires the use of stack. Hence this new API will do the
      necessary argument setup and invoke the appropriate
      handler. Although this API is primarily intended for AArch32,
      it can be used for AArch64 as well.

      The tf_printf library uses 64 bit division to print numbers
      in appropriate formats but AArch32 mode cannot do 64 bit division

      to handle AArch32 mode in tf_printf library. The decimal format
      printing capability is limited to 32 bit integers whereas 64 bits
      are supported in hexadecimal format. The library assumes that
      secure world is running in Little-Endian mode to do bit
      manipulations on 64 bit. Suitable assertions are present to
      enforce this assumption.

      Ensure addresses in is_mem_free() don't overflow · 7b6d330c
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      This patch adds some runtime checks to prevent some potential
      pointer overflow issues in the is_mem_free() function. The overflow
      could happen in the case where the end addresses, computed as the
      sum of a base address and a size, results in a value large enough
      to wrap around. This, in turn, could lead to unpredictable behaviour.
      
      If such an overflow is detected, the is_mem_free() function will now
      declare the memory region as not free. The overflow is detected using
      a new macro, called check_uptr_overflow().
      
      This patch also modifies all other places in the 'bl_common.c' file
      where an end address was computed as the sum of a base address and a
      size and instead keeps the two values separate. This avoids the need
      to handle pointer overflows everywhere. The code doesn't actually need
      to compute any end address before the is_mem_free() function is called
      other than to print information message to the serial output.
      
      This patch also introduces 2 slight changes to the reserve_mem()
      function:
      
       - It fixes the end addresses passed to choose_mem_pos(). It was
         incorrectly passing (base + size) instead of (base + size - 1).
      
       - When the requested allocation size is 0, the function now exits
         straight away and says so using a warning message.
         Previously, it used to actually reserve some memory. A zero-byte
         allocation was not considered as a special case so the function
         was using the same top/bottom allocation mechanism as for any
         other allocation. As a result, the smallest area of memory starting
         from the requested base address within the free region was
         reserved.

      Make runtime_svc_init() function more robust · 3a26a28c
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
       - Added some debug assertions checking that the runtime services
         indexes computed by get_unique_oen() are sane.
      
       - Do not print the name of the service when its descriptor is
         invalid. If the descriptor is corrupted then its name field
         could be corrupted as well and we would end up reading an
         arbitrary amount of invalid memory.

      Improvements to runtime service init code · 9d24d353
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      Light refactoring of the code in runtime_svc.c file.
      
       - Declare validate_rt_svc_desc()'s argument as const.
      
       - Remove 'goto' path in runtime_svc_init(). It was used in one
         place only.
      
       - Improve code readability by declaring a local variable holding the
         service pointer.

      Introduce `el3_runtime` and `PSCI` libraries · 532ed618
      Soby Mathew authored
      This patch moves the PSCI services and BL31 frameworks like context
      management and per-cpu data into new library components `PSCI` and
      `el3_runtime` respectively. This enables PSCI to be built independently from
      BL31. A new `psci_lib.mk` makefile is introduced which adds the relevant
      PSCI library sources and gets included by `bl31.mk`. Other changes which
      are done as part of this patch are:
      
      * The runtime services framework is now moved to the `common/` folder to
        enable reuse.
      * The `asm_macros.S` and `assert_macros.S` helpers are moved to architecture
        specific folder.
      * The `plat_psci_common.c` is moved from the `plat/common/aarch64/` folder
        to `plat/common` folder. The original file location now has a stub which
        just includes the file from new location to maintain platform compatibility.
      
      Most of the changes wouldn't affect platform builds as they just involve
      changes to the generic bl1.mk and bl31.mk makefiles.
      
      NOTE: THE `plat_psci_common.c` FILE HAS MOVED LOCATION AND THE STUB FILE AT
      THE ORIGINAL LOCATION IS NOW DEPRECATED. PLATFORMS SHOULD MODIFY THEIR
      MAKEFILES TO INCLUDE THE FILE FROM THE NEW LOCATION.

      Rework type usage in Trusted Firmware · 4c0d0390
      Soby Mathew authored
      This patch reworks type usage in generic code, drivers and ARM platform files
      to make it more portable. The major changes done with respect to
      type usage are as listed below:
      
      * Use uintptr_t for storing address instead of uint64_t or unsigned long.
      * Review usage of unsigned long as it can no longer be assumed to be 64 bit.
      * Use u_register_t for register values whose width varies depending on
        whether AArch64 or AArch32.
      * Use generic C types where-ever possible.
      
      In addition to the above changes, this patch also modifies format specifiers
      in print invocations so that they are AArch64/AArch32 agnostic. Only files
      related to upcoming feature development have been reworked.

      Update comments in load_image() · a6b995fb
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      - Fix the function documentation.
        Since commit 16948ae1, load_image() uses image IDs rather than image
        names.
      
      - Clarify the consequences of a null entry point argument.
      
      - Slightly reorganize the code to remove an unnecessary 'if' statement.

      Build option to include AArch32 registers in cpu context · 8cd16e6b
      Soby Mathew authored
      The system registers that are saved and restored in CPU context include
      AArch32 systems registers like SPSR_ABT, SPSR_UND, SPSR_IRQ, SPSR_FIQ,
      DACR32_EL2, IFSR32_EL2 and FPEXC32_EL2. Accessing these registers on an
      AArch64-only (i.e. on hardware that does not implement AArch32, or at
      least not at EL1 and higher ELs) platform leads to an exception. This patch
      introduces the build option `CTX_INCLUDE_AARCH32_REGS` to specify whether to
      include these AArch32 systems registers in the cpu context or not. By default
      this build option is set to 1 to ensure compatibility. AArch64-only platforms
      must set it to 0. A runtime check is added in BL1 and BL31 cold boot path to
      verify this.
      
      Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#386

      Introduce some helper macros for exception vectors · e0ae9fab
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      This patch introduces some assembler macros to simplify the
      declaration of the exception vectors. It abstracts the section
      the exception code is put into as well as the alignments
      constraints mandated by the ARMv8 architecture. For all TF images,
      the exception code has been updated to make use of these macros.
      
      This patch also updates some invalid comments in the exception
      vector code.
