      Fix MISRA C issues in BL1/BL2/BL31 · 3443a702
      John Powell authored
      
      
      Attempts to address MISRA compliance issues in BL1, BL2, and BL31 code.
      Mainly issues like not using boolean expressions in conditionals,
      conflicting variable names, ignoring return values without (void), adding
      explicit casts, etc.

      PIE: make call to GDT relocation fixup generalized · da90359b
      Manish Pandey authored
      When a Firmware is complied as Position Independent Executable it needs
      to request GDT fixup by passing size of the memory region to
      el3_entrypoint_common macro.
      The Global descriptor table fixup will be done early on during cold boot
      process of primary core.
      
      Currently only BL31 supports PIE, but in future when BL2_AT_EL3 will be
      compiled as PIE, it can simply pass fixup size to the common el3
      entrypoint macro to fixup GDT.
      
      The reason for this patch was to overcome the bug introduced by SHA
      330ead80
      
       which called fixup routine for each core causing
      re-initializing of global pointers thus overwriting any changes
      done by the previous core.

      Refactor ARMv8.3 Pointer Authentication support code · ed108b56
      Alexei Fedorov authored
      
      
      This patch provides the following features and makes modifications
      listed below:
      - Individual APIAKey key generation for each CPU.
      - New key generation on every BL31 warm boot and TSP CPU On event.
      - Per-CPU storage of APIAKey added in percpu_data[]
        of cpu_data structure.
      - `plat_init_apiakey()` function replaced with `plat_init_apkey()`
        which returns 128-bit value and uses Generic timer physical counter
        value to increase the randomness of the generated key.
        The new function can be used for generation of all ARMv8.3-PAuth keys
      - ARMv8.3-PAuth specific code placed in `lib\extensions\pauth`.
      - New `pauth_init_enable_el1()` and `pauth_init_enable_el3()` functions
        generate, program and enable APIAKey_EL1 for EL1 and EL3 respectively;
        pauth_disable_el1()` and `pauth_disable_el3()` functions disable
        PAuth for EL1 and EL3 respectively;
        `pauth_load_bl31_apiakey()` loads saved per-CPU APIAKey_EL1 from
        cpu-data structure.
      - Combined `save_gp_pauth_registers()` function replaces calls to
        `save_gp_registers()` and `pauth_context_save()`;
        `restore_gp_pauth_registers()` replaces `pauth_context_restore()`
        and `restore_gp_registers()` calls.
      - `restore_gp_registers_eret()` function removed with corresponding
        code placed in `el3_exit()`.
      - Fixed the issue when `pauth_t pauth_ctx` structure allocated space
        for 12 uint64_t PAuth registers instead of 10 by removal of macro
        CTX_PACGAKEY_END from `include/lib/el3_runtime/aarch64/context.h`
        and assigning its value to CTX_PAUTH_REGS_END.
      - Use of MODE_SP_ELX and MODE_SP_EL0 macro definitions
        in `msr	spsel`  instruction instead of hard-coded values.
      - Changes in documentation related to ARMv8.3-PAuth and ARMv8.5-BTI.

      AArch64: Disable Secure Cycle Counter · e290a8fc
      Alexei Fedorov authored
      
      
      This patch fixes an issue when secure world timing information
      can be leaked because Secure Cycle Counter is not disabled.
      For ARMv8.5 the counter gets disabled by setting MDCR_El3.SCCD
      bit on CPU cold/warm boot.
      For the earlier architectures PMCR_EL0 register is saved/restored
      on secure world entry/exit from/to Non-secure state, and cycle
      counting gets disabled by setting PMCR_EL0.DP bit.
      'include\aarch64\arch.h' header file was tided up and new
      ARMv8.5-PMU related definitions were added.

      Sanitise includes across codebase · 09d40e0e
      Antonio Nino Diaz authored
      Enforce full include path for includes. Deprecate old paths.
      
      The following folders inside include/lib have been left unchanged:
      
      - include/lib/cpus/${ARCH}
      - include/lib/el3_runtime/${ARCH}
      
      The reason for this change is that having a global namespace for
      includes isn't a good idea. It defeats one of the advantages of having
      folders and it introduces problems that are sometimes subtle (because
      you may not know the header you are actually including if there are two
      of them).
      
      For example, this patch had to be created because two headers were
      called the same way: e0ea0928 ("Fix gpio includes of mt8173 platform
      to avoid collision."). More recently, this patch has had similar
      problems: 46f9b2c3 ("drivers: add tzc380 support").
      
      This problem was introduced in commit 4ecca339
      
       ("Move include and
      source files to logical locations"). At that time, there weren't too
      many headers so it wasn't a real issue. However, time has shown that
      this creates problems.
      
      Platforms that want to preserve the way they include headers may add the
      removed paths to PLAT_INCLUDES, but this is discouraged.

      Check_vector_size checks if the size of the vector fits

      the Clang assembler. A new macro, end_vector_entry, is added
      and check_vector_size is deprecated.
      
      This new macro fills the current exception vector until the next
      exception vector. If the size of the current vector is bigger
      than 32 instructions then it gives an error.

      Fully initialise essential control registers · 18f2efd6
      David Cunado authored
      
      
      This patch updates the el3_arch_init_common macro so that it fully
      initialises essential control registers rather then relying on hardware
      to set the reset values.
      
      The context management functions are also updated to fully initialise
      the appropriate control registers when initialising the non-secure and
      secure context structures and when preparing to leave EL3 for a lower
      EL.
      
      This gives better alignement with the ARM ARM which states that software
      must initialise RES0 and RES1 fields with 0 / 1.
      
      This patch also corrects the following typos:
      
      "NASCR definitions" -> "NSACR definitions"

      Define and use no_ret macro where no return is expected · a806dad5
      Jeenu Viswambharan authored
      
      
      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.

      Remove looping around `plat_report_exception` · 5bbc451e
      Yatharth Kochar authored
      This patch removes the tight loop that calls `plat_report_exception`
      in unhandled exceptions in AArch64 state.
      The new behaviour is to call the `plat_report_exception` only
      once followed by call to `plat_panic_handler`.
      This allows platforms to take platform-specific action when
      there is an unhandled exception, instead of always spinning
      in a tight loop.
      
      Note: This is a subtle break in behaviour for platforms that
            expect `plat_report_exception` to be continuously executed
            when there is an unhandled exception.

      Enable asynchronous abort exceptions during boot · adb4fcfb
      Gerald Lejeune authored
      
      
      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.

      FWU: Add Generic Firmware Update framework support in BL1 · 48bfb88e
      Yatharth Kochar authored
      Firmware update(a.k.a FWU) feature is part of the TBB architecture.
      BL1 is responsible for carrying out the FWU process if platform
      specific code detects that it is needed.
      
      This patch adds support for FWU feature support in BL1 which is
      included by enabling `TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT` compile time flag.
      
      This patch adds bl1_fwu.c which contains all the core operations
      of FWU, which are; SMC handler, image copy, authentication, execution
      and resumption. It also adds bl1.h introducing #defines for all
      BL1 SMCs.
      
      Following platform porting functions are introduced:
      
      int bl1_plat_mem_check(uintptr_t mem_base, unsigned int mem_size,
      unsigned int flags);
      	This function can be used to add platform specific memory checks
      	for the provided base/size for the given security state.
      	The weak definition will invoke `assert()` and return -ENOMEM.
      
      __dead2 void bl1_plat_fwu_done(void *cookie, void *reserved);
      	This function can be used to initiate platform specific procedure
      	to mark completion of the FWU process.
      	The weak definition waits forever calling `wfi()`.
      
      plat_bl1_common.c contains weak definitions for above functions.
      
      FWU process starts when platform detects it and return the image_id
      other than BL2_IMAGE_ID by using `bl1_plat_get_next_image_id()` in
      `bl1_main()`.
      
      NOTE: User MUST provide platform specific real definition for
      bl1_plat_mem_check() in order to use it for Firmware update.

      Add descriptor based image management support in BL1 · 7baff11f
      Yatharth Kochar authored
      As of now BL1 loads and execute BL2 based on hard coded information
      provided in BL1. But due to addition of support for upcoming Firmware
      Update feature, BL1 now require more flexible approach to load and
      run different images using information provided by the platform.
      
      This patch adds new mechanism to load and execute images based on
      platform provided image id's. BL1 now queries the platform to fetch
      the image id of the next image to be loaded and executed. In order
      to achieve this, a new struct image_desc_t was added which holds the
      information about images, such as: ep_info and image_info.
      
      This patch introduces following platform porting functions:
      
      unsigned int bl1_plat_get_next_image_id(void);
      	This is used to identify the next image to be loaded
      	and executed by BL1.
      
      struct image_desc *bl1_plat_get_image_desc(unsigned int image_id);
      	This is used to retrieve the image_desc for given image_id.
      
      void bl1_plat_set_ep_info(unsigned int image_id,
      struct entry_point_info *ep_info);
      	This function allows platforms to update ep_info for given
      	image_id.
      
      The plat_bl1_common.c file provides default weak implementations of
      all above functions, the `bl1_plat_get_image_desc()` always return
      BL2 image descriptor, the `bl1_plat_get_next_image_id()` always return
      BL2 image ID and `bl1_plat_set_ep_info()` is empty and just returns.
      These functions gets compiled into all BL1 platforms by default.
      
      Platform setup in BL1, using `bl1_platform_setup()`, is now done
      _after_ the initialization of authentication module. This change
      provides the opportunity to use authentication while doing the
      platform setup in BL1.
      
      In order to store secure/non-secure context, BL31 uses percpu_data[]
      to store context pointer for each core. In case of BL1 only the
      primary CPU will be active hence percpu_data[] is not required to
      store the context pointer.
      
      This patch introduce bl1_cpu_context[] and bl1_cpu_context_ptr[] to
      store the context and context pointers respectively. It also also
      re-defines cm_get_context() and cm_set_context() for BL1 in
      bl1/bl1_context_mgmt.c.
      
      BL1 now follows the BL31 pattern of using SP_EL0 for the C runtime
      environment, to support resuming execution from a previously saved
      context.
      
      NOTE: THE `bl1_plat_set_bl2_ep_info()` PLATFORM PORTING FUNCTION IS
            NO LONGER CALLED BY BL1 COMMON CODE. PLATFORMS THAT OVERRIDE
            THIS FUNCTION MAY NEED TO IMPLEMENT `bl1_plat_set_ep_info()`
            INSTEAD TO MAINTAIN EXISTING BEHAVIOUR.

      Move context management code to common location · bbf8f6f9
      Yatharth Kochar authored
      The upcoming Firmware Update feature needs transitioning across
      Secure/Normal worlds to complete the FWU process and hence requires
      context management code to perform this task.
      
      Currently context management code is part of BL31 stage only.
      This patch moves the code from (include)/bl31 to (include)/common.
      Some function declarations/definitions and macros have also moved
      to different files to help code sharing.

      Introduce COLD_BOOT_SINGLE_CPU build option · a9bec67d
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      This patch introduces a new build option named COLD_BOOT_SINGLE_CPU,
      which allows platforms that only release a single CPU out of reset to
      slightly optimise their cold boot code, both in terms of code size
      and performance.
      
      COLD_BOOT_SINGLE_CPU defaults to 0, which assumes that the platform
      may release several CPUs out of reset. In this case, the cold reset
      code needs to coordinate all CPUs via the usual primary/secondary
      CPU distinction.
      
      If a platform guarantees that only a single CPU will ever be released
      out of reset, there is no need to arbitrate execution ; the notion of
      primary and secondary CPUs itself no longer exists. Such platforms
      may set COLD_BOOT_SINGLE_CPU to 1 in order to compile out the
      primary/secondary CPU identification in the cold reset code.
      
      All ARM standard platforms can release several CPUs out of reset
      so they use COLD_BOOT_SINGLE_CPU=0. However, on CSS platforms like
      Juno, bringing up more than one CPU at reset should only be attempted
      when booting an EL3 payload, as it is not fully supported in the
      normal boot flow.
      
      For platforms using COLD_BOOT_SINGLE_CPU=1, the following 2 platform
      APIs become optional:
        - plat_secondary_cold_boot_setup();
        - plat_is_my_cpu_primary().
      The Porting Guide has been updated to reflect that.
      
      User Guide updated as well.

      Pass the entry point info to bl1_plat_prepare_exit() · 862b5dc2
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      This patch modifies the prototype of the bl1_plat_prepare_exit()
      platform API to pass the address of the entry point info structure
      received from BL2. The structure contains information that can be
      useful, depending on the kind of clean up or bookkeeping operations
      to perform.
      
      The weak implementation of this function ignores this argument to
      preserve platform backwards compatibility.
      
      NOTE: THIS PATCH MAY BREAK PLATFORM PORTS THAT ARE RELYING ON THE
      FORMER PROTOTYPE OF THE BL1_PLAT_PREPARE_EXIT() API.

      Introduce SPIN_ON_BL1_EXIT build flag · 35e8c766
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      This patch introduces a new build flag, SPIN_ON_BL1_EXIT, which
      puts an infinite loop in BL1. It is intended to help debugging
      the post-BL2 phase of the Trusted Firmware by stopping execution
      in BL1 just before handing over to BL31. At this point, the
      developer may take control of the target using a debugger.
      
      This feature is disabled by default and can be enabled by
      rebuilding BL1 with SPIN_ON_BL1_EXIT=1.
      
      User Guide updated accordingly.

      Add optional bl1_plat_prepare_exit() API · e3f67124
      Juan Castillo authored
      This patch adds an optional API to the platform port:
      
          void bl1_plat_prepare_exit(void);
      
      This function is called prior to exiting BL1 in response to the
      RUN_IMAGE_SMC request raised by BL2. It should be used to perform
      platform specific clean up or bookkeeping operations before
      transferring control to the next image.
      
      A weak empty definition of this function has been provided to
      preserve platform backwards compatibility.

      Break down BL1 AArch64 synchronous exception handler · 1fe4d453
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      The AArch64 synchronous exception vector code in BL1 is almost
      reaching its architectural limit of 32 instructions. This means
      there is very little space for this code to grow.
      
      This patch reduces the size of the exception vector code by
      moving most of its code in a function to which we branch from
      SynchronousExceptionA64.

      Introduce PROGRAMMABLE_RESET_ADDRESS build option · bf031bba
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      This patch introduces a new platform build option, called
      PROGRAMMABLE_RESET_ADDRESS, which tells whether the platform has
      a programmable or fixed reset vector address.
      
      If the reset vector address is fixed then the code relies on the
      platform_get_entrypoint() mailbox mechanism to figure out where
      it is supposed to jump. On the other hand, if it is programmable
      then it is assumed that the platform code will program directly
      the right address into the RVBAR register (instead of using the
      mailbox redirection) so the mailbox is ignored in this case.

      Rationalize reset handling code · 52010cc7
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      The attempt to run the CPU reset code as soon as possible after reset
      results in highly complex conditional code relating to the
      RESET_TO_BL31 option.
      
      This patch relaxes this requirement a little. In the BL1, BL3-1 and
      PSCI entrypoints code, the sequence of operations is now as follows:
       1) Detect whether it is a cold or warm boot;
       2) For cold boot, detect whether it is the primary or a secondary
          CPU. This is needed to handle multiple CPUs entering cold reset
          simultaneously;
       3) Run the CPU init code.
      
      This patch also abstracts the EL3 registers initialisation done by
      the BL1, BL3-1 and PSCI entrypoints into common code.
      
      This improves code re-use and consolidates the code flows for
      different types of systems.
      
      NOTE: THE FUNCTION plat_secondary_cold_boot() IS NOW EXPECTED TO
      NEVER RETURN. THIS PATCH FORCES PLATFORM PORTS THAT RELIED ON THE
      FORMER RETRY LOOP AT THE CALL SITE TO MODIFY THEIR IMPLEMENTATION.
      OTHERWISE, SECONDARY CPUS WILL PANIC.

      Add support to indicate size and end of assembly functions · 8b779620
      Kévin Petit authored
      
      
      In order for the symbol table in the ELF file to contain the size of
      functions written in assembly, it is necessary to report it to the
      assembler using the .size directive.
      
      To fulfil the above requirements, this patch introduces an 'endfunc'
      macro which contains the .endfunc and .size directives. It also adds
      a .func directive to the 'func' assembler macro.
      
      The .func/.endfunc have been used so the assembler can fail if
      endfunc is omitted.

      This patch introduces a framework which will allow CPUs to perform
      implementation defined actions after a CPU reset, during a CPU or cluster power

      in this patch. Other handlers will be implemented in subsequent patches.
      
      Also moved cpu_helpers.S to the new directory lib/cpus/aarch64/.
