Each ARM Trusted Firmware image should know in which EL it is running
and it should use the corresponding register directly instead of reading
currentEL and knowing which asm register to read/write

The Test Secure-EL1 Payload implementation should always have a
platform-specific component.  Therefore, there should always
be a platform-specific sub-makefile for the TSP.  If there is
none then assume TSP is not supported on this specific platform
and throw an error at build time if the user tries to compile it.

This patch fixes a bug in the 'file_to_uuid()' function: it used
to cause an exception by dereferencing a null pointer when
a given UUID was not found in the UUID array. The fix is to delete
the final null entry in the UUID array, which is not needed because
the array is statically declared so its size is known at build time.

Previously to this path, the FIP tool used to print the following,
misleading error message when called without any argument or with
'--help' option:

  ERROR: Too many arguments

This patch fixes this behavior by printing the following error
message instead:

  ERROR: Missing FIP filename

If called with '--help', no error message is printed and only the
help message is displayed.

Also improve the help message printed by the FIP tool.

This patch makes use of different values for '--dump' and other
command-line options. This makes the code simpler and also
optimises it a bit (because it avoids a string comparison).

Current implementation of Bakery Lock does tight-loop waiting upon lock
contention.

This commit reworks the implementation to use WFE instruction for
waiting, and SEV to signal lock availability. It also adds the rationale
for choosing Bakery Locks instead of exclusion primitives, and more
comments for the lock algorithm.

At present, the entry point for each BL image is specified via the
Makefiles and provided on the command line to the linker. When using a
link script the entry point should rather be specified via the ENTRY()
directive in the link script.

This patch updates linker scripts of all BL images to specify the entry
point using the ENTRY() directive. It also removes the --entry flag
passed to the linker through Makefile.

This patch adds call count, UID and version information SMC calls for
the Trusted OS, as specified by the SMC calling convention.

Change-Id: I9a3e84ac1bb046051db975d853dcbe9612aba6a9

This patch implements ARM Standard Service as a runtime service and adds
support for call count, UID and revision information SMCs. The existing
PSCI implementation is subsumed by the Standard Service calls and all
PSCI calls are therefore dispatched by the Standard Service to the PSCI
handler.

At present, PSCI is the only specification under Standard Service. Thus
call count returns the number of PSCI calls implemented. As this is the
initial implementation, a revision number of 0.1 is returned for call
revision.

At present, bl1_arch_setup() and bl31_arch_setup() program the counter
frequency using a value from the memory mapped generic timer. The
generic timer however is not necessarily present on all ARM systems
(although it is architected to be present on all server systems).

This patch moves the timer setup to platform-specific code and updates
the relevant documentation. Also, CNTR.FCREQ is set as the specification
requires the bit corresponding to the counter's frequency to be set when
enabling. Since we intend to use the base frequency, set bit 8.

The policy functions for each file to be loaded were implemented by
copy/pasting one method and then varying the data checked.

This patch creates a generic function to check the policy based on the
data stored in a table.

This removes the amount of duplicated code but also makes the code
simpler and more efficient.

This change requires all platforms to now specify a list of source files
rather than object files.

New source files should preferably be specified by using the path as
well and we should add this in the future for all files so we can remove
use of vpath. This is desirable because vpath hides issues like the fact
that BL2 currently pulls in a BL1 file bl1/aarch64/early_exceptions.S
and if in the future we added bl2/aarch64/early_exceptions.S then it's
likely only one of the two version would be used for both bootloaders.

This change also removes the 'dump' build target and simply gets
bootloaders to always generate a dump file. At the same time the -x
option is added so the section headers and symbols table are listed.

Make gicd_set_ipriorityr() actually write to the priority register.

Also correct callers of this function which want the highest priority
to use the value zero as this is the highest priority value according
to the ARM Generic Interrupt Controller Architecture Specification.

To make this easier to get right, we introduce defines for the lowest
and highest priorities for secure and non-secure interrupts.

bakery_lock_release() expects an mpidr as the first argument however
bakery_lock_release() is calling it with the 'entry' argument it has
calculated. Rather than fixing this to pass the mpidr value it would be
much more efficient to just replace the call with

   assert(bakery->owner == entry)

As this leaves no remaining users of bakery_lock_held(), we might as
well delete it.

At present, the firmware panics if a runtime service fails to
initialize. An earlier patch had implemented late binding for all
runtime service handlers.

With that in place, this patch allows the firmware to proceed even when
a service fails to initialize.

Change-Id: I6cf4de2cecea9719f4cd48272a77cf459b080d4e

At present SPD power management hooks and BL3-2 entry are implemented
using weak references. This would have the handlers bound and registered
with the core framework at build time, but leaves them dangling if a
service fails to initialize at runtime.

This patch replaces implementation by requiring runtime handlers to
register power management and deferred initialization hooks with the
core framework at runtime. The runtime services are to register the
hooks only as the last step, after having all states successfully
initialized.

This patch reworks the service provided by the TSP to perform common
arithmetic operations on a set of arguments provided by the non-secure
world. For a addition, division, subtraction & multiplication operation
requested on two arguments in x0 and x1 the steps are:

1. TSPD saves the non-secure context and passes the operation and its
   arguments to the TSP.

2. TSP asks the TSPD to return the same arguments once again. This
   exercises an additional SMC path.

3. TSP now has two copies of both x0 and x1. It performs the operation
   on the corresponding copies i.e. in case of addition it returns x0+x0
   and x1+x1.

4. TSPD receives the result, saves the secure context, restores the
   non-secure context and passes the result back to the non-secure
   client.
