When the MMU is enabled and the translation tables are mapped, data read/writes to the translation tables are made using the attributes specified in the translation tables themselves. However, the MMU performs table walks with the attributes specified in TCR_ELx. They are completely independent, so special care has to be taken to make sure that they are the same. This has to be done manually because it is not practical to have a test in the code. Such a test would need to know the virtual memory region that contains the translation tables and check that for all of the tables the attributes match the ones in TCR_ELx. As the tables may not even be mapped at all, this isn't a test that can be made generic. The flags used by enable_mmu_xxx() have been moved to the same header where the functions are. Also, some comments in the linker scripts related to the translation tables have been fixed.

After executing a TLBI a DSB is needed to ensure completion of the TLBI. rk3328: The MMU is allowed to load TLB entries for as long as it is enabled. Because of this, the correct place to execute a TLBI is right after disabling the MMU. Change-Id: I8280f248d10b49a8c354a4ccbdc8f8345ac4c170 Signed-off-by: Antonio Nino Diaz <antonio.ninodiaz@arm.com>

Add 'lr_svc' as a boot parameter in AArch32 bl1. This is used by Optee and Trusty to get the non-secure entry point on AArch32 platforms. This change is not ported in AArch64 mode where the BL31, not BL32, is in charge of booting the non secure image (BL33). Signed-off-by: Etienne Carriere <etienne.carriere@linaro.org>

This patch modifies the makefiles to avoid the definition of BL1_SOURCES and BL2_SOURCES in the tbbr makefiles, and it lets to the platform makefiles to define them if they actually need these images. In the case of BL2_AT_EL3 BL1 will not be needed usually because the Boot ROM will jump directly to BL2.

When defining different sections in linker scripts it is needed to align them to multiples of the page size. In most linker scripts this is done by aligning to the hardcoded value 4096 instead of PAGE_SIZE. This may be confusing when taking a look at all the codebase, as 4096 is used in some parts that aren't meant to be a multiple of the page size.

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" Change-Id: Ia8940b8351dc27bc09e2138b011e249655041cfc Signed-off-by: David Cunado <david.cunado@arm.com>

This patch fixes the following issues in Firmware Update (FWU) code: 1. The FWU layer maintains a list of loaded image ids and while checking for image overlaps, INVALID_IMAGE_IDs were not skipped. The patch now adds code to skip INVALID_IMAGE_IDs. 2. While resetting the state corresponding to an image, the code now resets the memory used by the image only if the image were copied previously via IMAGE_COPY smc. This prevents the invalid zeroing of image memory which are not copied but are directly authenticated via IMAGE_AUTH smc.

Added checks to FWU_SMC_IMAGE_COPY to prevent loading data into a memory region where another image data is already loaded. Without this check, if two images are configured to be loaded in overlapping memory regions, one of them can be loaded and authenticated and the copy function is still able to load data from the second image on top of the first one. Since the first image is still in authenticated state, it can be executed, which could lead to the execution of unauthenticated arbitrary code of the second image. Firmware update documentation updated. Change-Id: Ib6871e569794c8e610a5ea59fe162ff5dcec526c Signed-off-by: Antonio Nino Diaz <antonio.ninodiaz@arm.com>

This patch adds `TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT` support for AArch32 mode. To build this patch the "mbedtls/include/mbedtls/bignum.h" needs to be modified to remove `#define MBEDTLS_HAVE_UDBL` when `MBEDTLS_HAVE_INT32` is defined. This is a workaround for "https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/issues/708 " NOTE: TBBR support on Juno AArch32 is not currently supported.

The current SMC context data structure `smc_ctx_t` and related helpers are optimized for case when SMC call does not result in world switch. This was the case for SP_MIN and BL1 cold boot flow. But the firmware update usecase requires world switch as a result of SMC and the current SMC context helpers were not helping very much in this regard. Therefore this patch does the following changes to improve this: 1. Add monitor stack pointer, `spmon` to `smc_ctx_t` The C Runtime stack pointer in monitor mode, `sp_mon` is added to the SMC context, and the `smc_ctx_t` pointer is cached in `sp_mon` prior to exit from Monitor mode. This makes is easier to retrieve the context when the next SMC call happens. As a result of this change, the SMC context helpers no longer depend on the stack to save and restore the register. This aligns it with the context save and restore mechanism in AArch64. 2. Add SCR in `smc_ctx_t` Adding the SCR register to `smc_ctx_t` makes it easier to manage this register state when switching between non secure and secure world as a result of an SMC call.

SMC_RET0 should only be used when the SMC code works as a function that returns void. If the code of the SMC uses SMC_RET1 to return a value to signify success and doesn't return anything in case of an error (or the other way around) SMC_RET1 should always be used to return clearly identifiable values. This patch fixes two cases in which the code used SMC_RET0 instead of SMC_RET1. It also introduces the define SMC_OK to use when an SMC must return a value to tell that it succeeded, the same way as SMC_UNK is used in case of failure.

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.

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.

The errata reporting policy is as follows: - If an errata workaround is enabled: - If it applies (i.e. the CPU is affected by the errata), an INFO message is printed, confirming that the errata workaround has been applied. - If it does not apply, a VERBOSE message is printed, confirming that the errata workaround has been skipped. - If an errata workaround is not enabled, but would have applied had it been, a WARN message is printed, alerting that errata workaround is missing.

Before adding a base address and a size to compute the end address of an image to copy or authenticate, check this won't result in an integer overflow. If it does then consider the input arguments are invalid. As a result, bl1_plat_mem_check() can now safely assume the end address (computed as the sum of the base address and size of the memory region) doesn't overflow, as the validation is done upfront in bl1_fwu_image_copy/auth(). A debug assertion has been added nonetheless in the ARM implementation in order to help catching such problems, should bl1_plat_mem_check() be called in a different context in the future.

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 adds changes in BL1 & BL2 to use new version of image loading to load the BL images. Following are the changes in BL1: -Use new version of load_auth_image() to load BL2 -Modified `bl1_init_bl2_mem_layout()` to remove using `reserve_mem()` and to calculate `bl2_mem_layout`. `bl2_mem_layout` calculation now assumes that BL1 RW data is at the top of the bl1_mem_layout, which is more restrictive than the previous BL1 behaviour. Following are the changes in BL2: -The `bl2_main.c` is refactored and all the functions for loading BLxx images are now moved to `bl2_image_load.c` `bl2_main.c` now calls a top level `bl2_load_images()` to load all the images that are applicable in BL2. -Added new file `bl2_image_load_v2.c` that uses new version of image loading to load the BL images in BL2. All the above changes are conditionally compiled using the `LOAD_IMAGE_V2` flag. Change-Id: Ic6dcde5a484495bdc05526d9121c59fa50c1bf23

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.

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 adds a new linker symbol in BL1's linker script named '__BL1_ROM_END__', which marks the end of BL1's ROM content. This covers BL1's code, read-only data and read-write data to relocate in Trusted SRAM. The address of this new linker symbol is exported to C code through the 'BL1_ROM_END' macro. The section related to linker symbols in the Firmware Design guide has been updated and improved. Change-Id: I5c442ff497c78d865ffba1d7d044511c134e11c7

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. Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#386 Change-Id: I720cdbd7ed7f7d8516635a2ec80d025f478b95ee
