To make software license auditing simpler, use SPDX[0] license identifiers instead of duplicating the license text in every file.

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 All occurrences of `ASM_ASSERTION` in common code and ARM platforms have been replaced by `ENABLE_ASSERTIONS`.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.

ge, lt, gt and le condition codes in assembly provide a signed test whereas hs, lo, hi and ls provide the unsigned counterpart. Signed tests should only be used when strictly necessary, as using them on logically unsigned values can lead to inverting the test for high enough values. All offsets, addresses and usually counters are actually unsigned values, and should be tested as such. Replace the occurrences of signed condition codes where it was unnecessary by an unsigned test as the unsigned tests allow the full range of unsigned values to be used without inverting the result with some large operands.

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.

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 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 various assembly helpers for AArch32 like : * cache management : Functions to flush, invalidate and clean cache by MVA. Also helpers to do cache operations by set-way are also added. * stack management: Macros to declare stack and get the current stack corresponding to current CPU. * Misc: Macros to access co processor registers in AArch32, macros to define functions in assembly, assert macros, generic `do_panic()` implementation and function to zero block of memory.
