utils.h is included in various header files for the defines in it. Some of the other header files only contain defines. This allows the header files to be shared between host and target builds for shared defines. Recently types.h has been included in utils.h as well as some function prototypes. Because of the inclusion of types.h conflicts exist building host tools abd these header files now. To solve this problem, move the defines to utils_def.h and have this included by utils.h and change header files to only include utils_def.h and not pick up the new types.h being introduced. Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#461 Signed-off-by: Scott Branden <scott.branden@broadcom.com> Remove utils_def.h from utils.h This patch removes utils_def.h from utils.h as it is not required. And also makes a minor change to ensure Juno platform compiles. Change-Id: I10cf1fb51e44a8fa6dcec02980354eb9ecc9fa29

The build option `ENABLE_ASSERTIONS` should be used instead. That way both C and ASM assertions can be enabled or disabled together. All occurrences of `ASM_ASSERTION` in common code and ARM platforms have been replaced by `ENABLE_ASSERTIONS`. ASM_ASSERTION has been removed from the user guide.

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.

This patch re-factors the following headers to make it easier to integrate the PSCI library with an AArch32 Secure Payload : * bl_common.h : The entry point information and the param header data structures are factored out into separate headers ep_info.h and param_headers.h * psci.h : The PSCI library interfaces are factored out into the new header psci_lib.h * context_mgmt.h : The header file is modified to not include arch.h when compiled for AArch32 mode. No functional changes are introduced by this patch. Change-Id: I5e21a843c0af2ba8e47dee4e577cf95929be8cd4 Signed-off-by: Soby Mathew <soby.mathew@arm.com>

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>

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.

This patch resets EL2 and EL3 registers that have architecturally UNKNOWN values on reset and that also provide EL2/EL3 configuration and trap controls. Specifically, the EL2 physical timer is disabled to prevent timer interrups into EL2 - CNTHP_CTL_EL2 and CNTHP_CTL for AArch64 and AArch32, respectively. Additionally, for AArch64, HSTR_EL2 is reset to avoid unexpected traps of non-secure access to certain system registers at EL1 or lower. For AArch32, the patch also reverts the reset to SDCR which was incorrectly added in a previous change.

This allows the debugger to print the callstack when there is an assembly function in the callstack. It will work as long as the CFA pointer (frame pointer) location is not modified (i.e. x29 is not touched in AArch64 state). It is the case in almost all assembly functions, so this patch improves the average debugging experience. Call stacks from the debugger should still be interpreted with care. In more complex functions, one could use .cfi* directives to inform the debugger about the new location of the CFA pointer.

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.

At present the `el3_entrypoint_common` macro uses `memcpy` function defined in lib/stdlib/mem.c file, to copy data from ROM to RAM for BL1. Depending on the compiler being used the stack could potentially be used, in `memcpy`, for storing the local variables. Since the stack is initialized much later in `el3_entrypoint_common` it may result in unknown behaviour. This patch adds `memcpy4` function definition in assembly so that it can be used before the stack is initialized and it also replaces `memcpy` by `memcpy4` in `el3_entrypoint_common` macro, to copy data from ROM to RAM for BL1.

This patch introduces a `psci_lib_args_t` structure which must be passed into `psci_setup()` which is then used to initialize the PSCI library. The `psci_lib_args_t` is a versioned structure so as to enable compatibility checks during library initialization. Both BL31 and SP_MIN are modified to use the new structure. SP_MIN is also modified to add version string and build message as part of its cold boot log just like the other BLs in Trusted Firmware. NOTE: Please be aware that this patch modifies the prototype of `psci_setup()`, which breaks compatibility with EL3 Runtime Firmware (excluding BL31 and SP_MIN) integrated with the PSCI Library.

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.

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. Change-Id: Ia7b643f4817a170d5a2fbf479b9bc12e63112e79

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.

This patch introduces the PSCI Library interface. The major changes introduced are as follows: * Earlier BL31 was responsible for Architectural initialization during cold boot via bl31_arch_setup() whereas PSCI was responsible for the same during warm boot. This functionality is now consolidated by the PSCI library and it does Architectural initialization via psci_arch_setup() during both cold and warm boots. * Earlier the warm boot entry point was always `psci_entrypoint()`. This was not flexible enough as a library interface. Now PSCI expects the runtime firmware to provide the entry point via `psci_setup()`. A new function `bl31_warm_entrypoint` is introduced in BL31 and the previous `psci_entrypoint()` is deprecated. * The `smc_helpers.h` is reorganized to separate the SMC Calling Convention defines from the Trusted Firmware SMC helpers. The former is now in a new header file `smcc.h` and the SMC helpers are moved to Architecture specific header. * The CPU context is used by PSCI for context initialization and restoration after power down (PSCI Context). It is also used by BL31 for SMC handling and context management during Normal-Secure world switch (SMC Context). The `psci_smc_handler()` interface is redefined to not use SMC helper macros thus enabling to decouple the PSCI context from EL3 runtime firmware SMC context. This enables PSCI to be integrated with other runtime firmware using a different SMC context. NOTE: With this patch the architectural setup done in `bl31_arch_setup()` is done as part of `psci_setup()` and hence `bl31_platform_setup()` will be invoked prior to architectural setup. It is highly unlikely that the platform setup will depend on architectural setup and cause any failure. Please be be aware of this change in sequence.

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.

At the moment, all BL images share a similar memory layout: they start with their code section, followed by their read-only data section. The two sections are contiguous in memory. Therefore, the end of the code section and the beginning of the read-only data one might share a memory page. This forces both to be mapped with the same memory attributes. As the code needs to be executable, this means that the read-only data stored on the same memory page as the code are executable as well. This could potentially be exploited as part of a security attack. This patch introduces a new build flag called SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA, which isolates the code and read-only data on separate memory pages. This in turn allows independent control of the access permissions for the code and read-only data. This has an impact on memory footprint, as padding bytes need to be introduced between the code and read-only data to ensure the segragation of the two. To limit the memory cost, the memory layout of the read-only section has been changed in this case. - When SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA=0, the layout is unchanged, i.e. the read-only section still looks like this (padding omitted): | ... | +-------------------+ | Exception vectors | +-------------------+ | Read-only data | +-------------------+ | Code | +-------------------+ BLx_BASE In this case, the linker script provides the limits of the whole read-only section. - When SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA=1, the exception vectors and read-only data are swapped, such that the code and exception vectors are contiguous, followed by the read-only data. This gives the following new layout (padding omitted): | ... | +-------------------+ | Read-only data | +-------------------+ | Exception vectors | +-------------------+ | Code | +-------------------+ BLx_BASE In this case, the linker script now exports 2 sets of addresses instead: the limits of the code and the limits of the read-only data. Refer to the Firmware Design guide for more details. This provides platform code with a finer-grained view of the image layout and allows it to map these 2 regions with the appropriate access permissions. Note that SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA applies to all BL images. Change-Id: I936cf80164f6b66b6ad52b8edacadc532c935a49

This patch introduces a new header file: include/lib/utils.h. Its purpose is to provide generic macros and helper functions that are independent of any BL image, architecture, platform and even not specific to Trusted Firmware. For now, it contains only 2 macros: ARRAY_SIZE() and IS_POWER_OF_TWO(). These were previously defined in bl_common.h and xlat_tables.c respectively. bl_common.h includes utils.h to retain compatibility for platforms that relied on bl_common.h for the ARRAY_SIZE() macro. Upstream platform ports that use this macro have been updated to include utils.h. Change-Id: I960450f54134f25d1710bfbdc4184f12c049a9a9

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.

The documentation of the GNU assembler specifies the following about the .align assembler directive: "the padding bytes are normally zero. However, on some systems, if the section is marked as containing code and the fill value is omitted, the space is filled with no-op instructions." (see https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/as/Align.html) When building Trusted Firmware, the AArch64 GNU assembler uses a mix of zero bytes and no-op instructions as the padding bytes to align exception vectors. This patch mandates to use zero bytes to be stored in the padding bytes in the exception vectors. In the AArch64 instruction set, no valid instruction encodes as zero so this effectively inserts illegal instructions. Should this code end up being executed for any reason, it would crash immediately. This gives us an extra protection against misbehaving code at no extra cost.

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.

If Trusted Firmware is built with optimizations disabled (-O0), the linker throws the following error: undefined reference to 'xxx' Where 'xxx' is a raw inline function defined in a header file. The reason is that, with optimizations disabled, GCC may decide to skip the inlining. If that is the case, an external definition to the compilation unit must be provided. Because no external definition is present, the linker throws the error. This patch fixes the problem by declaring the following inline functions static, so the internal definition is used: - cm_set_next_context() - bakery_lock_init() Note that building the TF with optimizations disabled when Trusted Board Boot is enabled is currently unsupported, as this makes the BL2 image too big to fit in memory without any adjustment of its base address. Similarly, disabling optimizations for debug builds on FVP is unsupported at the moment. Change-Id: I284a9f84cc8df96a0c1a52dfe05c9e8544c0cefe

This patch enables the SCR_EL3.SIF (Secure Instruction Fetch) bit in BL1 and BL31 common architectural setup code. When in secure state, this disables instruction fetches from Non-secure memory. NOTE: THIS COULD BREAK PLATFORMS THAT HAVE SECURE WORLD CODE EXECUTING FROM NON-SECURE MEMORY, BUT THIS IS CONSIDERED UNLIKELY AND IS A SERIOUS SECURITY RISK. Fixes ARM-Software/tf-issues#372 Change-Id: I684e84b8d523c3b246e9a5fabfa085b6405df319

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.

The assembler helper function `print_revision_warning` is used when a CPU specific operation is enabled in the debug build (e.g. an errata workaround) but doesn't apply to the executing CPU's revision/part number. However, in some cases the system integrator may want a single binary to support multiple platforms with different IP versions, only some of which contain a specific erratum. In this case, the warning can be emitted very frequently when CPUs are being powered on/off. This patch modifies this warning print behaviour so that it is emitted only when LOG_LEVEL >= LOG_LEVEL_VERBOSE. The `debug.h` header file now contains guard macros so that it can be included in assembly code. Change-Id: Ic6e7a07f128dcdb8498a5bfdae920a8feeea1345

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.
