If FEAT_PMUv3 is implemented and PMEVTYPER<n>(_EL0).MT bit is implemented as well, it is possible to control whether PMU counters take into account events happening on other threads. If FEAT_MTPMU is implemented, EL3 (or EL2) can override the MT bit leaving it to effective state of 0 regardless of any write to it. This patch introduces the DISABLE_MTPMU flag, which allows to diable multithread event count from EL3 (or EL2). The flag is disabled by default so the behavior is consistent with those architectures that do not implement FEAT_MTPMU.

Usually, C has no problem up-converting types to larger bit sizes. MISRA rule 10.7 requires that you not do this, or be very explicit about this. This resolves the following required rule: bl1/aarch64/bl1_context_mgmt.c:81:[MISRA C-2012 Rule 10.7 (required)]<None> The width of the composite expression "0U | ((mode & 3U) << 2U) | 1U | 0x3c0U" (32 bits) is less that the right hand operand "18446744073709547519ULL" (64 bits). This also resolves MISRA defects such as: bl2/aarch64/bl2arch_setup.c:18:[MISRA C-2012 Rule 12.2 (required)] In the expression "3U << 20", shifting more than 7 bits, the number of bits in the essential type of the left expression, "3U", is not allowed. Further, MISRA requires that all shifts don't overflow. The definition of PAGE_SIZE was (1U << 12), and 1U is 8 bits. This caused about 50 issues. This fixes the violation by changing the definition to 1UL << 12. Since this uses 32bits, it should not create any issues for aarch32. This patch also contains a fix for a build failure in the sun50i_a64 platform. Specifically, these misra fixes removed a single and instruction, 92407e73 and x19, x19, #0xffffffff from the cm_setup_context function caused a relocation in psci_cpus_on_start to require a linker-generated stub. This increased the size of the .text section and caused an alignment later on to go over a page boundary and round up to the end of RAM before placing the .data section. This sectionn is of non-zero size and therefore causes a link error. The fix included in this reorders the functions during link time without changing their ording with respect to alignment.

As per latest mailing communication [1], we decided to update AT speculative workaround implementation in order to disable page table walk for lower ELs(EL1 or EL0) immediately after context switching to EL3 from lower ELs. Previous implementation of AT speculative workaround is available here: 45aecff0 AT speculative workaround is updated as below: 1. Avoid saving and restoring of SCTLR and TCR registers for EL1 in context save and restore routine respectively. 2. On EL3 entry, save SCTLR and TCR registers for EL1. 3. On EL3 entry, update EL1 system registers to disable stage 1 page table walk for lower ELs (EL1 and EL0) and enable EL1 MMU. 4. On EL3 exit, restore SCTLR and TCR registers for EL1 which are saved in step 2.

Some platforms are extremely memory constrained and must split BL31 between multiple non-contiguous areas in SRAM. Allow the NOBITS sections (.bss, stacks, page tables, and coherent memory) to be placed in a separate region of RAM from the loaded firmware image. Because the NOBITS region may be at a lower address than the rest of BL31, __RW_{START,END}__ and __BL31_{START,END}__ cannot include this region, or el3_entrypoint_common would attempt to invalidate the dcache for the entire address space. New symbols __NOBITS_{START,END}__ are added when SEPARATE_NOBITS_REGION is enabled, and the dcached for the NOBITS region is invalidated separately.

When a Firmware is complied as Position Independent Executable it needs to request GDT fixup by passing size of the memory region to el3_entrypoint_common macro. The Global descriptor table fixup will be done early on during cold boot process of primary core. Currently only BL31 supports PIE, but in future when BL2_AT_EL3 will be compiled as PIE, it can simply pass fixup size to the common el3 entrypoint macro to fixup GDT. The reason for this patch was to overcome the bug introduced by SHA 330ead80 which called fixup routine for each core causing re-initializing of global pointers thus overwriting any changes done by the previous core.

This patch fixes an issue when secure world timing information can be leaked because Secure Cycle Counter is not disabled. For ARMv8.5 the counter gets disabled by setting MDCR_El3.SCCD bit on CPU cold/warm boot. For the earlier architectures PMCR_EL0 register is saved/restored on secure world entry/exit from/to Non-secure state, and cycle counting gets disabled by setting PMCR_EL0.DP bit. 'include\aarch64\arch.h' header file was tided up and new ARMv8.5-PMU related definitions were added.

ARMv8.3-PAuth adds functionality that supports address authentication of the contents of a register before that register is used as the target of an indirect branch, or as a load. This feature is supported only in AArch64 state. This feature is mandatory in ARMv8.3 implementations. This feature adds several registers to EL1. A new option called CTX_INCLUDE_PAUTH_REGS has been added to select if the TF needs to save them during Non-secure <-> Secure world switches. This option must be enabled if the hardware has the registers or the values will be leaked during world switches. To prevent leaks, this patch also disables pointer authentication in the Secure world if CTX_INCLUDE_PAUTH_REGS is 0. Any attempt to use it will be trapped in EL3.

In a system with ARMv8.5-PMU implemented: - If EL3 is using AArch32, setting MDCR_EL3.SCCD to 1 disables counting in Secure state in PMCCNTR. - If EL3 is using AArch64, setting SDCR.SCCD to 1 disables counting in Secure state in PMCCNTR_EL0. So far this effect has been achieved by setting PMCR_EL0.DP (in AArch64) or PMCR.DP (in AArch32) to 1 instead, but this isn't considered secure as any EL can change that value.

The Armv8.5 extensions introduces PSTATE.SSBS (Speculation Store Bypass Safe) bit to mitigate against Variant 4 vulnerabilities. Although an Armv8.5 feature, this can be implemented by CPUs implementing earlier version of the architecture. With this patch, when both PSTATE.SSBS is implemented and DYNAMIC_WORKAROUND_CVE_2018_3639 is active, querying for SMCCC_ARCH_WORKAROUND_2 via. SMCCC_ARCH_FEATURES call would return 1 to indicate that mitigation on the PE is either permanently enabled or not required. When SSBS is implemented, SCTLR_EL3.DSSBS is initialized to 0 at reset of every BL stage. This means that EL3 always executes with mitigation applied. For Cortex A76, if the PE implements SSBS, the existing mitigation (by using a different vector table, and tweaking CPU ACTLR2) is not used.

This patch fixes up the AArch64 assembly code to use adrp/adr instructions instead of ldr instruction for reference to symbols. This allows these assembly sequences to be Position Independant. Note that the the reference to sizes have been replaced with calculation of size at runtime. This is because size is a constant value and does not depend on execution address and using PC relative instructions for loading them makes them relative to execution address. Also we cannot use `ldr` instruction to load size as it generates a dynamic relocation entry which must *not* be fixed up and it is difficult for a dynamic loader to differentiate which entries need to be skipped.

Pointer authentication is an Armv8.3 feature that introduces instructions that can be used to authenticate and verify pointers. Pointer authentication instructions are allowed to be accessed from all ELs but only when EL3 explicitly allows for it; otherwise, their usage will trap to EL3. Since EL3 doesn't have trap handling in place, this patch unconditionally disables all related traps to EL3 to avoid potential misconfiguration leading to an unhandled EL3 exception.

Invalidate the Branch Target Buffer (BTB) on entry to EL3 by disabling and enabling the MMU. To achieve this without performing any branch instruction, a per-cpu vbar is installed which executes the workaround and then branches off to the corresponding vector entry in the main vector table. A side effect of this change is that the main vbar is configured before any reset handling. This is to allow the per-cpu reset function to override the vbar setting. This workaround is enabled by default on the affected CPUs. Change-Id: I97788d38463a5840a410e3cea85ed297a1678265 Signed-off-by: Dimitris Papastamos <dimitris.papastamos@arm.com>

This patch adds a new build option, ENABLE_SVE_FOR_NS, which when set to one EL3 will check to see if the Scalable Vector Extension (SVE) is implemented when entering and exiting the Non-secure world. If SVE is implemented, EL3 will do the following: - Entry to Non-secure world: SIMD, FP and SVE functionality is enabled. - Exit from Non-secure world: SIMD, FP and SVE functionality is disabled. As SIMD and FP registers are part of the SVE Z-registers then any use of SIMD / FP functionality would corrupt the SVE registers. The build option default is 1. The SVE functionality is only supported on AArch64 and so the build option is set to zero when the target archiecture is AArch32. This build option is not compatible with the CTX_INCLUDE_FPREGS - an assert will be raised on platforms where SVE is implemented and both ENABLE_SVE_FOR_NS and CTX_INCLUDE_FPREGS are set to 1. Also note this change prevents secure world use of FP&SIMD registers on SVE-enabled platforms. Existing Secure-EL1 Payloads will not work on such platforms unless ENABLE_SVE_FOR_NS is set to 0. Additionally, on the first entry into the Non-secure world the SVE functionality is enabled and the SVE Z-register length is set to the maximum size allowed by the architecture. This includes the use case where EL2 is implemented but not used. Change-Id: Ie2d733ddaba0b9bef1d7c9765503155188fe7dae Signed-off-by: David Cunado <david.cunado@arm.com>

This patch updates the el3_arch_init_common macro so that it fully initialises essential control registers rather then relying on hardware to set the reset values. The context management functions are also updated to fully initialise the appropriate control registers when initialising the non-secure and secure context structures and when preparing to leave EL3 for a lower EL. This gives better alignement with the ARM ARM which states that software must initialise RES0 and RES1 fields with 0 / 1.

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.

One nasty part of ATF is some of boolean macros are always defined as 1 or 0, and the rest of them are only defined under certain conditions. For the former group, "#if FOO" or "#if !FOO" must be used because "#ifdef FOO" is always true. (Options passed by $(call add_define,) are the cases.) For the latter, "#ifdef FOO" or "#ifndef FOO" should be used because checking the value of an undefined macro is strange. Here, IMAGE_BL* is handled by make_helpers/build_macro.mk like follows: $(eval IMAGE := IMAGE_BL$(call uppercase,$(3))) $(OBJ): $(2) @echo " CC $$<" $$(Q)$$(CC) $$(TF_CFLAGS) $$(CFLAGS) -D$(IMAGE) -c $$< -o $$@ This means, IMAGE_BL* is defined when building the corresponding image, but *undefined* for the other images. So, IMAGE_BL* belongs to the latter group where we should use #ifdef or #ifndef. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

In order to avoid unexpected traps into EL3/MON mode, this patch resets the debug registers, MDCR_EL3 and MDCR_EL2 for AArch64, and SDCR and HDCR for AArch32. MDCR_EL3/SDCR is zero'ed when EL3/MON mode is entered, at the start of BL1 and BL31/SMP_MIN. For MDCR_EL2/HDCR, this patch zero's the bits that are architecturally UNKNOWN values on reset. This is done when exiting from EL3/MON mode but only on platforms that support EL2/HYP mode but choose to exit to EL1/SVC mode.

Asynchronous abort exceptions generated by the platform during cold boot are not taken in EL3 unless SCR_EL3.EA is set. Therefore EA bit is set along with RES1 bits in early BL1 and BL31 architecture initialisation. Further write accesses to SCR_EL3 preserve these bits during cold boot. A build flag controls SCR_EL3.EA value to keep asynchronous abort exceptions being trapped by EL3 after cold boot or not. For further reference SError Interrupts are also known as asynchronous external aborts. On Cortex-A53 revisions below r0p2, asynchronous abort exceptions are taken in EL3 whatever the SCR_EL3.EA value is.

Added a new platform porting function plat_panic_handler, to allow platforms to handle unexpected error situations. It must be implemented in assembly as it may be called before the C environment is initialized. A default implementation is provided, which simply spins. Corrected all dead loops in generic code to call this function instead. This includes the dead loop that occurs at the end of the call to panic(). All unnecesary wfis from bl32/tsp/aarch64/tsp_exceptions.S have been removed. Change-Id: I67cb85f6112fa8e77bd62f5718efcef4173d8134

The previous reset code in BL1 performed the following steps in order: 1. Warm/Cold boot detection. If it's a warm boot, jump to warm boot entrypoint. 2. Primary/Secondary CPU detection. If it's a secondary CPU, jump to plat_secondary_cold_boot_setup(), which doesn't return. 3. CPU initialisations (cache, TLB...). 4. Memory and C runtime initialization. For a secondary CPU, steps 3 and 4 are never reached. This shouldn't be a problem in most cases, since current implementations of plat_secondary_cold_boot_setup() either panic or power down the secondary CPUs. The main concern is the lack of secondary CPU initialization when bare metal EL3 payloads are used in case they don't take care of this initialisation themselves. This patch moves the detection of primary/secondary CPU after step 3 so that the CPU initialisations are performed per-CPU, while the memory and the C runtime initialisation are only performed on the primary CPU. The diagrams used in the ARM Trusted Firmware Reset Design documentation file have been updated to reflect the new boot flow. Platforms ports might be affected by this patch depending on the behaviour of plat_secondary_cold_boot_setup(), as the state of the platform when entering this function will be different.
