PSCI uses different function IDs for CPU_SUSPEND and CPU_ON, depending on the architecture used (AArch64 or AArch32). For recent PSCI versions the client will determine the right version, but for PSCI v0.1 we need to put some ID in the DT node. At the moment we always add the 64-bit IDs, which is not correct if TF-A is built for AArch32. Use the function IDs matching the TF-A build architecture, for the two IDs where this differs. This only affects legacy OSes using PSCI v0.1. On the way remove the sys_poweroff and sys_reset properties, which were never described in the official PSCI DT binding.

Since we moved some functions that amend a DT blob in memory to common code, let's add proper function documentation. This covers the three exported functions in common/fdt_fixup.c. Change-Id: I67d7d27344e62172c789d308662f78d54903cf57 Signed-off-by: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@arm.com>

If a firmware component like TF-A reserves special memory regions for its own or secure payload services, it should announce the location and size of those regions to the non-secure world. This will avoid disappointment when some rich OS tries to acccess this memory, which will likely end in a crash. The traditional way of advertising reserved memory using device tree is using the special memreserve feature of the device tree blob (DTB). However by definition those regions mentioned there do not prevent the rich OS to map this memory, which may lead to speculative accesses to this memory and hence spurious bus errors. A safer way of carving out memory is to use the /reserved-memory node as part of the normal DT structure. Besides being easier to setup, this also defines an explicit "no-map" property to signify the secure-only nature of certain memory regions, which avoids the rich OS to accidentally step on it. Add a helper function to allow platform ports to easily add a region. Change-Id: I2b92676cf48fd3bdacda05b5c6b1c7952ebed68c Signed-off-by: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@arm.com>

The QEMU platform port scans its device tree to advertise PSCI as the CPU enable method. It does this by scanning *every* node in the DT and check whether its compatible string starts with "arm,cortex-a". Then it sets the enable-method to PSCI, if it doesn't already have one. Other platforms might want to use this functionality as well, so let's move it out of the QEMU platform directory and make it more robust by fixing some shortcomings: - A compatible string starting with a certain prefix is not a good way to find the CPU nodes. For instance a "arm,cortex-a72-pmu" node will match as well and is in turn favoured with an enable-method. - If the DT already has an enable-method, we won't change this to PSCI. Those two issues will for instance fail on the Raspberry Pi 4 DT. To fix those problems, we adjust the scanning method: The DT spec says that all CPU nodes are subnodes of the mandatory /cpus node, which is a subnode of the root node. Also each CPU node has to have a device_type = "cpu" property. So we find the /cpus node, then scan for a subnode with the proper device_type, forcing the enable-method to "psci". We have to restart this search after a property has been patched, as the node offsets might have changed meanwhile. This allows this routine to be reused for the Raspberry Pi 4 later.
