      Replace SP804 timer by generic delay timer on FVP · 32cd95f0
      Antonio Nino Diaz authored
      Added a build flag to select the generic delay timer on FVP instead
      of the SP804 timer. By default, the generic one will be selected. The
      user guide has been updated.

      Fix SP804 delay timer on FVP · 540a5ba8
      Juan Castillo authored
      This patch fixes several issues with the SP804 delay timer on FVP:
      
      * By default, the SP804 dual timer on FVP runs at 32 KHz. In order
        to run the timer at 35 MHz (as specified in the FVP user manual)
        the Overwrite bit in the SP810 control register must be set.
      
      * The CLKMULT and CLKDIV definitions are mixed up:
      
            delta(us) = delta(ticks) * T(us) = delta(ticks) / f(MHz)
      
        From the delay function:
      
            delta_us = (delta * ops->clk_mult) / ops->clk_div;
      
        Matching both expressions:
      
            1 / f(MHz) = ops->clk_mult / ops->clk_div
      
        And consequently:
      
            f(MHz) = ops->clk_div / ops->clk_mult
      
        Which, for a 35 MHz timer, translates to:
      
            ops->clk_div = 35
            ops->clk_mult = 1
      
      * The comment in the delay timer header file has been corrected:
        The ratio of the multiplier and the divider is the clock period
        in microseconds, not the frequency.

      FVP: Add SP804 delay timer · b49b3221
      Ryan Harkin authored
      
      
      Add SP804 delay timer support to the FVP BSP.
      
      This commit simply provides the 3 constants needed by the SP804
      delay timer driver and calls sp804_timer_init() in
      bl2_platform_setup(). The BSP does not currently use the delay
      timer functions.
      
      Note that the FVP SP804 is a normal world accessible peripheral
      and should not be used by the secure world after transition
      to the normal world.

      Major update to the FVP platform port to use the common platform code
      in (include/)plat/arm/* and (include/)plat/common/*. This mainly
      consists of removing duplicated code but also introduces some small
      behavioural changes where there was unnecessary variation between the
      FVP and Juno ports. See earlier commit titled `Add common ARM and CSS
      platform code` for details.

      Remove use of PLATFORM_CACHE_LINE_SIZE · ce4c820d
      Dan Handley authored
      The required platform constant PLATFORM_CACHE_LINE_SIZE is
      unnecessary since CACHE_WRITEBACK_GRANULE effectively provides the
      same information. CACHE_WRITEBACK_GRANULE is preferred since this
      is an architecturally defined term and allows comparison with the
      corresponding hardware register value.
      
      Replace all usage of PLATFORM_CACHE_LINE_SIZE with
      CACHE_WRITEBACK_GRANULE.
      
      Also, add a runtime assert in BL1 to check that the provided
      CACHE_WRITEBACK_GRANULE matches the value provided in CTR_EL0.

      FVP: map non-secure DRAM1 in the MMU · 6fd9eaf3
      Juan Castillo authored
      This patch maps the non-secure region of DRAM1 in the MMU. The
      non-secure region comprises the whole DRAM1 (0x80000000 -
      0xffffffff) excluding the top 16 MB (0xff000000 - 0xffffffff).
      The TrustZone controller configures this 16 MB region as secure
      memory, so it can not be accessed in non-secure mode.
      
      The number of MMU tables in BL2 has been increased to 3 because
      the new size of the non-secure region in DRAM requires an extra L2
      table.

      FVP common definitions are defined in fvp_def.h while platform_def.h
      contains exclusively (with a few exceptions) the definitions that are
      mandatory in the porting guide. Therefore, platform_def.h now includes
      fvp_def.h instead of the other way around.

      the bottom/top loading information, has been removed. Also the 'next'
      field has been removed as it wasn't used anywhere.
      
      The 'init_bl2_mem_layout()' function has been moved out of common

      has been moved out the header file and into the source file
      (bl_common.c) using the more succinct #pragma syntax. This

      fvp: Move TSP from Secure DRAM to Secure SRAM · 53514b29
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      The TSP used to execute from secure DRAM on the FVPs because there was
      not enough space in Trusted SRAM to fit it in. Thanks to recent RAM
      usage enhancements being implemented, we have made enough savings for
      the TSP to execute in SRAM.
      
      However, there is no contiguous free chunk of SRAM big enough to hold
      the TSP. Therefore, the different bootloader images need to be moved
      around to reduce memory fragmentation. This patch keeps the overall
      memory layout (i.e. keeping BL1 R/W at the bottom, BL2 at the top and
      BL3-1 in between) but moves the base addresses of all the bootloader
      images in such a way that:
       - memory fragmentation is reduced enough to fit BL3-2 in;
       - new base addresses are suitable for release builds as well as debug
         ones;
       - each image has a few extra kilobytes for future growth.
         BL3-1 and BL3-2 are the images which received the biggest slice
         of the cake since they will most probably grow the most.
      
      A few useful numbers for reference (valid at the time of this patch):
              |-----------------------|-------------------------------
              |  image size (debug)   |  extra space for the future

      TSP: Let the platform decide which secure memory to use · 2467f70f
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      The TSP's linker script used to assume that the TSP would
      execute from secure DRAM. Although it is currently the case
      on FVPs, platforms are free to use any secure memory they wish.
      
      This patch introduces the flexibility to load the TSP into any
      secure memory. The platform code gets to specify the extents of
      this memory in the platform header file, as well as the BL3-2 image
      limit address. The latter definition allows to check in a generic way
      that the BL3-2 image fits in its bounds.

      Add support for BL3-1 as a reset vector · dbad1bac

      This change adds optional reset vector support to BL3-1
      which means BL3-1 entry point can detect cold/warm boot,

      When using BL3-1 as a reset vector it is assumed that
      the BL3-1 platform code can determine the location of
      the BL3-2 images, or load them as there are no parameters
      that can be passed to BL3-1 at reset.
      
      It also fixes the incorrect initialisation of mailbox
      registers on the FVP platform

      Rework handover interface between BL stages · 29fb905d
      Vikram Kanigiri authored
      This patch reworks the handover interface from: BL1 to BL2 and
      BL2 to BL3-1. It removes the raise_el(), change_el(), drop_el()
      and run_image() functions as they catered for code paths that were
      never exercised.
      BL1 calls bl1_run_bl2() to jump into BL2 instead of doing the same
      by calling run_image(). Similarly, BL2 issues the SMC to transfer
      execution to BL3-1 through BL1 directly. Only x0 and x1 are used
      to pass arguments to BL31. These arguments and parameters for
      running BL3-1 are passed through a reference to a
      'el_change_info_t' structure. They were being passed value in
      general purpose registers earlier.

      fvp: Provide per-EL MMU setup functions · b793e431
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      Instead of having a single version of the MMU setup functions for all
      bootloader images that can execute either in EL3 or in EL1, provide
      separate functions for EL1 and EL3. Each bootloader image can then
      call the appropriate version of these functions. The aim is to reduce
      the amount of code compiled in each BL image by embedding only what's
      needed (e.g. BL1 to embed only EL3 variants).

      Ensure a console is initialized before it is used · 770de65f
      Vikram Kanigiri authored
      This patch moves console_init() to bl32_early_platform_setup(). It
      also ensures that console_init() is called in each
      blX_early_platform_setup() function before the console is used
      e.g. through a printf call in an assert() statement.

      Reduce deep nesting of header files · 97043ac9
      Dan Handley authored
      Reduce the number of header files included from other header
      files as much as possible without splitting the files. Use forward
      declarations where possible. This allows removal of some unnecessary
      "#ifndef __ASSEMBLY__" statements.
      
      Also, review the .c and .S files for which header files really need
      including and reorder the #include statements alphabetically.

      Always use named structs in header files · fb037bfb
      Dan Handley authored
      Add tag names to all unnamed structs in header files. This
      allows forward declaration of structs, which is necessary to
      reduce header file nesting (to be implemented in a subsequent
      commit).
      
      Also change the typedef names across the codebase to use the _t
      suffix to be more conformant with the Linux coding style. The
      coding style actually prefers us not to use typedefs at all but
      this is considered a step too far for Trusted Firmware.
      
      Also change the IO framework structs defintions to use typedef'd
      structs to be consistent with the rest of the codebase.

      Enable secure memory support for FVPs · f2199d95
      Harry Liebel authored
      - Use the TrustZone controller on Base FVP to program DRAM access
        permissions. By default no access to DRAM is allowed if
        'secure memory' is enabled on the Base FVP.
      - The Foundation FVP does not have a TrustZone controller but instead
        has fixed access permissions.
      - Update FDTs for Linux to use timers at the correct security level.
      - Starting the FVPs with 'secure memory' disabled is also supported.
      
      Limitations:
      Virtio currently uses a reserved NSAID. This will be corrected in
      future FVP releases.

      Initialise UART console in all bootloader stages · 0796fe01

      This patch reworks the console driver to ensure that each bootloader stage
      initializes it independently. As a result, both BL3-1 and BL2 platform code
      now calls console_init() instead of relying on BL1 to perform console setup

      Add support for BL3-2 in BL2 · a3050ed5
      Achin Gupta authored
      
      
      This patch adds support for loading a BL3-2 image in BL2. In case a
      BL3-2 image is found, it also passes information to BL3-1 about where it
      is located and the extents of memory available to it. Information about
      memory extents is populated by platform specific code.
      
      The documentation has also been updated to reflect the above changes.

      Rework BL2 to BL3-1 hand over interface · e4d084ea
      Achin Gupta authored
      This patch reworks BL2 to BL3-1 hand over interface by introducing a
      composite structure (bl31_args) that holds the superset of information
      that needs to be passed from BL2 to BL3-1.
      
        - The extents of secure memory available to BL3-1
        - The extents of memory available to BL3-2 (not yet implemented) and
          BL3-3
        - Information to execute BL3-2 (not yet implemented) and BL3-3 images
      
      This patch also introduces a new platform API (bl2_get_bl31_args_ptr)
      that needs to be implemented by the platform code to export reference to
      bl31_args structure which has been allocated in platform-defined memory.
      
      The platform will initialize the extents of memory available to BL3-3
      during early platform setup in bl31_args structure. This obviates the
      need for bl2_get_ns_mem_layout platform API.
      
      BL2 calls the bl2_get_bl31_args_ptr function to get a reference to
      bl31_args structure. It uses the 'bl33_meminfo' field of this structure
      to load the BL3-3 image. It sets the entry point information for the
      BL3-3 image in the 'bl33_image_info' field of this structure. The
      reference to this structure is passed to the BL3-1 image.
      
      Also fixes issue ARM-software/tf-issues#25

      Add Firmware Image Package (FIP) driver · 561cd33e
      Harry Liebel authored
      The Firmware Image Package (FIP) driver allows for data to be loaded
      from a FIP on platform storage. The FVP supports loading bootloader
      images from a FIP located in NOR FLASH.
      
      The implemented FVP policy states that bootloader images will be
      loaded from a FIP in NOR FLASH if available and fall back to loading
      individual images from semi-hosting.
      
      NOTE:
      - BL3-3(e.g. UEFI) is loaded into DRAM and needs to be configured
        to run from the BL33_BASE address. This is currently set to
        DRAM_BASE+128MB for the FVP.

      Implement load_image in terms of IO abstraction · 9d72b4ea
      James Morrissey authored
      The modified implementation uses the IO abstraction rather than
      making direct semi-hosting calls.  The semi-hosting driver is now
      registered for the FVP platform during initialisation of each boot
      stage where it is used.  Additionally, the FVP platform includes a
      straightforward implementation of 'plat_get_image_source' which
      provides a generic means for the 'load_image' function to determine
      how to access the image data.
