This patch enables LTO for TF-A when compiled with GCC.
LTO is disabled by default and is enabled by
ENABLE_LTO=1 build option.

LTO is enabled only for aarch64 as there seem to be
a bug in the aarch32 compiler when LTO is enabled.

The changes in the makefiles include:
- Adding -flto and associated flags to enable LTO.
- Using gcc as a wrapper at link time instead of ld.
  This is recommended when using LTO as gcc internally
  takes care of invoking the necessary plugins for LTO.
- Adding switches to pass options to ld.
- Adding a flag to disable fix for erratum cortex-a53-843419
  unless explicitly enabled. This is needed because GCC
  seem to automatically add the erratum fix when used
  as a wrapper for LD.

Additionally, this patch updates the TF-A user guide with
the new build option.

NOTE: AARCH32/AARCH64 macros are now deprecated in favor of __aarch64__.

All common C compilers pre-define the same macros to signal which
architecture the code is being compiled for: __arm__ for AArch32 (or
earlier versions) and __aarch64__ for AArch64. There's no need for TF-A
to define its own custom macros for this. In order to unify code with
the export headers (which use __aarch64__ to avoid another dependency),
let's deprecate the AARCH32 and AARCH64 macros and switch the code base
over to the pre-defined standard macro. (Since it is somewhat
unintuitive that __arm__ only means AArch32, let's standardize on only
using __aarch64__.)

NOTE: __ASSEMBLY__ macro is now deprecated in favor of __ASSEMBLER__.

All common C compilers predefine a macro called __ASSEMBLER__ when

export headers (which use __ASSEMBLER__ to avoid one extra dependency),
let's deprecate __ASSEMBLY__ and switch the code base over to the
predefined standard.

On certain platforms it does not make sense to generate
TF-A binary images. For example a platform could make use of serveral
memory areas, which are non-continuous and the resulting binary
therefore would suffer from the padding-bytes.
Typically these platforms use the ELF image.

This patch introduces a variable DISABLE_BIN_GENERATION, which
can be set to '1' in the platform makefile to prevent the binary
generation.

This patch provides support for using the scatterfile format as
the linker script with the 'armlink' linker for Tegra platforms.

In order to enable the scatterfile usage the following changes
have been made:

* provide mapping for ld.S symbols in bl_common.h
* include bl_common.h from all the affected files
* update the makefile rules to use the scatterfile and armlink
  to compile BL31
* update pubsub.h to add sections to the scatterfile

NOTE: THIS CHANGE HAS BEEN VERIFIED WITH TEGRA PLATFORMS ONLY.

Following changes are done to make DT pre-processing similar to that of
U-boot/Linux kernel.

1. Creating seperate CPPFLAGS for DT preprocessing so that compiler
options specific to it can be accommodated.
e.g: "-undef" compiler option avoids replacing "linux" string(used in
device trees) with "1" as "linux" is a pre-defined macro in gnu99
standard.

2. Replace CPP with PP for DT pre-processing, as CPP in U-boot/Linux is
exported as "${CROSS_COMPILE}gcc -E" while in TF-A it is exported as
"${CROSS_COMPILE}cpp".

"-s" is a command line option to the make tool, to suppress normal output,
something to the effect of prepending every line with '@' in the Makefile.
However with our V={0|1} support, we now print the shortened command line
output in any case (even with V=1, in addition to the long line!).
Normally -s helps to not miss non-fatal warnings, which tend to scroll out
of the window easily.

Introduce a new Makefile variable ECHO, to control the shortened output.
We only set it in the (current default) V=0 case, and replace every
occurence of "@echo" with that variable.
When the user specifies "-s", we set ECHO to some magic string which
changes the output line into a comment, so the output is suppressed.

Beside suppressing every output for "-s", we also avoid the redundant
short output when compiling with V=1.

This changes the output to:
==========
$ make -s PLAT=.... bl31

Built build/.../release/bl31.bin

==========
$ make PLAT=.... bl31

Romlib is a new image that is stored in ROM and contains the code of
several libraries that can be shared between different images. All
the functions within in the library are accessed using a jump table
which allows to update the romlib image whithout changing the binary
compatibility. This jump table can be also stored in RAM and it can
allow to patch a romlib with potential bugs fixes..

This is an add-on feature that allows processing
device tree with external includes.

"-Iinclude" is also added to INCLUDES.
It allows inclusion of dt-bindings files either in dts files or drivers,
as those files will be in include/dt-bindings/.

"-i fdts" is added to the DTC command line.
As the pre-processed files are in build directory, the DT source directory
has to be explicitely included, to manages /include/ directives.

One typical usage of the pre-tool image filter is data compression,
and GZIP is one of the most commonly used compression methods.
I guess this is generic enough to be put in the common script instead
of platform.mk.

If you want to use this, you can add something like follows to your
platform.mk:

    BL32_PRE_TOOL_FILTER := GZIP
    BL33_PRE_TOOL_FILTER := GZIP
Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

There are cases where we want to process images before they are
passed to cert_create / fiptool.

My main motivation is data compression.  By compressing images, we can
save data storage, and possibly speed up loading images.  The image
verification will also get faster because certificates are generated
based on compressed images.

Other image transformation filters (for ex. encryption), and their
combinations would be possible.  So, our build system should support
transformation filters in a generic manner.

The choice of applied filters is up to platforms (so specified in
platform.mk)

To define a new filter, <FILTER_NAME>_RULE and <FILTER_NAME>_SUFFIX
are needed.

For example, the GZIP compression filter can be implemented as follows:

------------------------>8------------------------
define GZIP_RULE
$(1): $(2)
        @echo "  GZIP    $$@"
        $(Q)gzip -n -f -9 $$< --stdout > $$@
endef

GZIP_SUFFIX := .gz
------------------------>8------------------------

The _RULE defines how to create the target $(1) from the source $(2).
The _SUFFIX defines the extension appended to the processed image path.
The suffix is not so important because the file name information is not
propagated to FIP, but adding a sensible suffix will be good to classify
the data file.

Platforms can specify which filter is applied to which BL image, like
this:

------------------------>8------------------------
BL32_PRE_TOOL_FILTER := GZIP
BL33_PRE_TOOL_FILTER := GZIP
------------------------>8------------------------

<IMAGE_NAME>_PRE_TOOL_FILTER specifies per-image filter.  With this,
different images can be transformed differently.  For the case above,
only BL32 and BL33 are GZIP-compressed.  Nothing is done for other
images.

In the next commit, I need the image name in lowercase because
output files are generally named in lowercase.

Unfortunately, TOOL_ADD_IMG takes the first argument in uppercase
since we generally use uppercase Make variables.

make_helpers/build_macros.mk provides 'uppercase' macro to convert
a string into uppercase, but 'lowercase' does not exist.  We can
implement it if we like, but it would be more straightforward to
change the argument of TOOL_ADD_IMG.

The fiptool and cert_create use the same command options for images.
It is pretty easy to handle both in the same, symmetrical way.

Move CRT_ARGS and CRT_DEPS to FIP_ADD_PAYLOAD.  This refactoring makes
sense because FIP_ADD_PAYLOAD is called from MAKE_BL (when building
images from source), and from FIP_ADD_IMG (when including external
images).  (FIP_ADD_PAYLOAD will be renamed later on since it now
caters to both fiptool and cert_create).

We can delete CERT_ADD_CMD_OPT for images in tbbr.mk.  It still
needs to call CERT_ADD_CMD_OPT directly for certificates.

The build system supports generating two FIP images, fip and fwu_fip.
Accordingly, we have similar build macros.

   FIP_ADD_PAYLOAD   <-->  FWU_FIP_ADD_PAYLOAD
   CERT_ADD_CMD_OPT  <-->  FWU_CERT_ADD_CMD_OPT
   FIP_ADD_IMG       <-->  FWU_FIP_ADD_IMG

The duplicated code increases the maintenance burden.  Also, the build
rule of BL2U looks clumsy - we want to call MAKE_BL to compile it from
source files, but we want to put it in fwu_fip.  We can not do it in a
single macro call since the current MAKE_BL does not support fwu_fip.

To refactor those in a clean way is to support one more argument to
specify the FIP prefix.  If it is empty, the images are targeted to
fip, whereas if the argument is "FWU_", targeted to fwu_fip.

The build macros prefixed with FWU_ go away.

This is a revamp of the original approach in:
https://github.com/ARM-software/arm-trusted-firmware/pull/747



Current build system has no means to automatically generate dtbs from
dts, instead, stores the dtbs in the fdts/ folder. While this makes
perfect sense for many reference platforms, this becomes a minor
breakage in development flow for newer platforms.

However, this can be solved by providing a rule for the dtbs while
building the ATF binaries by purely describing which dts sources we
need.

For example, with this change, we will now be able to describe the
dtbs we need for the platform in the corresponding platform.mk file:
FDT_SOURCES += fdts/abc.dts

This should be able to generate the abc.dtb appropriately.

Since device trees are specification of hardware, we don't tie the rule
to any specific BL, instead a generic rule is introduced.

Further, this approach allows us to generate appropriate dtbs which may be
need to be regenerated when a common dtsi gets updated, by just
restricting changes to the dtsi alone, instead of synchronizing all the
dtbs as well.

If dtc is not available in default paths, but is available in an
alternate location, it can be chosen by overriding the DTC variable
such as 'make DTC=~/dtc/dtc ....`

NOTE: dtbs are built only with the explicit make dtbs command. The rule
is only available if the platform defines a FDT_SOURCES variable.
