      ARM platforms: Fixup AArch32 builds · 5744e874
      Soby Mathew authored
      
      
      This patch fixes a couple of issues for AArch32 builds on ARM reference
      platforms :
      
      1. The arm_def.h previously defined the same BL32_BASE value for AArch64 and
         AArch32 build. Since BL31 is not present in AArch32 mode, this meant that
         the BL31 memory is empty when built for AArch32. Hence this patch allocates
         BL32 to the memory region occupied by BL31 for AArch32 builds.
      
         As a side-effect of this change, the ARM_TSP_RAM_LOCATION macro cannot
         be used to control the load address of BL32 in AArch32 mode which was
         never the intention of the macro anyway.
      
      2. A static assert is added to sp_min linker script to check that the progbits
         are within the bounds expected when overlaid with other images.
      
      3. Fix specifying `SPD` when building Juno for AArch32 mode. Due to the quirks
         involved when building Juno for AArch32 mode, the build option SPD needed to
         specifed. This patch corrects this and also updates the documentation in the
         user-guide.
      
      4. Exclude BL31 from the build and FIP when building Juno for AArch32 mode. As
         a result the previous assumption that BL31 must be always present is removed
         and the certificates for BL31 is only generated if `NEED_BL31` is defined.

      Replace magic numbers in linkerscripts by PAGE_SIZE · a2aedac2
      Antonio Nino Diaz authored
      
      
      When defining different sections in linker scripts it is needed to align
      them to multiples of the page size. In most linker scripts this is done
      by aligning to the hardcoded value 4096 instead of PAGE_SIZE.
      
      This may be confusing when taking a look at all the codebase, as 4096
      is used in some parts that aren't meant to be a multiple of the page
      size.

      Implement support for the Activity Monitor Unit on Cortex A75 · 0319a977
      Dimitris Papastamos authored
      
      
      The Cortex A75 has 5 AMU counters.  The first three counters are fixed
      and the remaining two are programmable.
      
      A new build option is introduced, `ENABLE_AMU`.  When set, the fixed
      counters will be enabled for use by lower ELs.  The programmable
      counters are currently disabled.

      Move FPEXC32_EL2 to FP Context · 91089f36
      David Cunado authored
      
      
      The FPEXC32_EL2 register controls SIMD and FP functionality when the
      lower ELs are executing in AArch32 mode. It is architecturally mapped
      to AArch32 system register FPEXC.
      
      This patch removes FPEXC32_EL2 register from the System Register context
      and adds it to the floating-point context. EL3 only saves / restores the
      floating-point context if the build option CTX_INCLUDE_FPREGS is set to 1.
      
      The rationale for this change is that if the Secure world is using FP
      functionality and EL3 is not managing the FP context, then the Secure
      world will save / restore the appropriate FP registers.
      
      NOTE - this is a break in behaviour in the unlikely case that
      CTX_INCLUDE_FPREGS is set to 0 and the platform contains an AArch32
      Secure Payload that modifies FPEXC, but does not save and restore
      this register

      This allows for other EL3 components to schedule an SDEI event dispatch
      to Normal world upon the next ERET. The API usage constrains are set out
      in the SDEI dispatcher documentation.

      ARM platforms: Make arm_validate_ns_entrypoint() common · 71e7a4e5
      Jeenu Viswambharan authored
      
      
      The function arm_validate_ns_entrypoint() validates a given non-secure
      physical address. This function however specifically returns PSCI error
      codes.
      
      Non-secure physical address validation is potentially useful across ARM
      platforms, even for non-PSCI use cases. Therefore make this function
      common by returning 0 for success or -1 otherwise.
      
      Having made the function common, make arm_validate_psci_entrypoint() a
      wrapper around arm_validate_ns_entrypoint() which only translates return
      value into PSCI error codes. This wrapper is now used where
      arm_validate_ns_entrypoint() was currently used for PSCI entry point
      validation.

      BL31: Add SDEI dispatcher · b7cb133e
      Jeenu Viswambharan authored
      The implementation currently supports only interrupt-based SDEI events,
      and supports all interfaces as defined by SDEI specification version
      1.0 [1].
      
      Introduce the build option SDEI_SUPPORT to include SDEI dispatcher in
      BL31.
      
      Update user guide and porting guide. SDEI documentation to follow.

      BL31: Program Priority Mask for SMC handling · 3d732e23
      Jeenu Viswambharan authored
      
      
      On GICv3 systems, as a side effect of adding provision to handle EL3
      interrupts (unconditionally routing FIQs to EL3), pending Non-secure
      interrupts (signalled as FIQs) may preempt execution in lower Secure ELs
      [1]. This will inadvertently disrupt the semantics of Fast SMC
      (previously called Atomic SMC) calls.
      
      To retain semantics of Fast SMCs, the GIC PMR must be programmed to
      prevent Non-secure interrupts from preempting Secure execution. To that
      effect, two new functions in the Exception Handling Framework subscribe
      to events introduced in an earlier commit:
      
        - Upon 'cm_exited_normal_world', the Non-secure PMR is stashed, and
          the PMR is programmed to the highest Non-secure interrupt priority.
      
        - Upon 'cm_entering_normal_world', the previously stashed Non-secure
          PMR is restored.
      
      The above sequence however prevents Yielding SMCs from being preempted
      by Non-secure interrupts as intended. To facilitate this, the public API
      exc_allow_ns_preemption() is introduced that programs the PMR to the
      original Non-secure PMR value. Another API
      exc_is_ns_preemption_allowed() is also introduced to check if
      exc_allow_ns_preemption() had been called previously.
      
      API documentation to follow.
      
      [1] On GICv2 systems, this isn't a problem as, unlike GICv3, pending NS
          IRQs during Secure execution are signalled as IRQs, which aren't
          routed to EL3.

      BL31: Introduce Exception Handling Framework · 21b818c0
      Jeenu Viswambharan authored
      
      
      EHF is a framework that allows dispatching of EL3 interrupts to their
      respective handlers in EL3.
      
      This framework facilitates the firmware-first error handling policy in
      which asynchronous exceptions may be routed to EL3. Such exceptions may
      be handed over to respective exception handlers. Individual handlers
      might further delegate exception handling to lower ELs.
      
      The framework associates the delegated execution to lower ELs with a
      priority value. For interrupts, this corresponds to the priorities
      programmed in GIC; for other types of exceptions, viz. SErrors or
      Synchronous External Aborts, individual dispatchers shall explicitly
      associate delegation to a secure priority. In order to prevent lower
      priority interrupts from preempting higher priority execution, the
      framework provides helpers to control preemption by virtue of
      programming Priority Mask register in the interrupt controller.
      
      This commit allows for handling interrupts targeted at EL3. Exception
      handlers own interrupts by assigning them a range of secure priorities,
      and registering handlers for each priority range it owns.
      
      Support for exception handling in BL31 image is enabled by setting the
      build option EL3_EXCEPTION_HANDLING=1.
      
      Documentation to follow.
      
      NOTE: The framework assumes the priority scheme supported by platform
      interrupt controller is compliant with that of ARM GIC architecture (v2
      or later).
