      doc: De-duplicate readme and license files · 8cc36aec
      Paul Beesley authored
      
      
      The readme.rst and license.rst files in the project root overlap
      with the index.rst and license.rst files in the docs/ folder. We
      need to use the latter when building the documentation, as Sphinx
      requires all included files to be under a common root. However,
      the files in the root are currently used by the cgit and Github
      viewers.
      
      Using symlinks in Git presents some difficulties so the best
      course of action is likely to leave these files but in stub form.
      
      The license.rst file in the root will simply tell the reader to
      refer to docs/license.rst.
      
      The readme.rst file will contain a small amount of content that
      is derived from the docs/index.rst file, so that the Github main
      page will have something valid to show, but it will also contain
      a link to the full documentation on ReadTheDocs.

      doc: Convert internal links to RST format · 34760951
      Paul Beesley authored
      
      
      Currently links between documents are using the format:
      
      <path/to/><filename>.rst
      
      This was required for services like GitHub because they render each
      document in isolation - linking to another document is like linking
      to any other file, just provide the full path.
      
      However, with the new approach, the .rst files are only the raw
      source for the documents. Once the documents have been rendered
      the output is now in another format (HTML in our case) and so,
      when linking to another document, the link must point to the
      rendered version and not the .rst file.
      
      The RST spec provides a few methods for linking between content.
      The parent of this patch enabled the automatic creation of anchors
      for document titles - we will use these anchors as the targets for
      our links. Additional anchors can be added by hand if needed, on
      section and sub-section titles, for example.
      
      An example of this new format, for a document with the title
      "Firmware Design" is :ref:`Firmware Design`.
      
      One big advantage of this is that anchors are not dependent on
      paths. We can then move documents around, even between directories,
      without breaking any links between documents. Links will need to be
      updated only if the title of a document changes.

      delay: correct timeout_init_us() · 9d811b85
      Yann Gautier authored
      
      
      The function has to use read_cntpct_el0() to update the counter, and not
      read_cntfrq_el0().

      Neoverse N1 Errata Workaround 1542419 · 80942622
      laurenw-arm authored
      
      
      Coherent I-cache is causing a prefetch violation where when the core
      executes an instruction that has recently been modified, the core might
      fetch a stale instruction which violates the ordering of instruction
      fetches.
      
      The workaround includes an instruction sequence to implementation
      defined registers to trap all EL0 IC IVAU instructions to EL3 and a trap
      handler to execute a TLB inner-shareable invalidation to an arbitrary
      address followed by a DSB.

      Fix the CAS spinlock implementation · c97cba4e
      Soby Mathew authored
      
      
      Make the spinlock implementation use ARMv8.1-LSE CAS instruction based
      on a platform build option. The CAS-based implementation used to be
      unconditionally selected for all ARM8.1+ platforms.
      
      The previous CAS spinlock implementation had a bug wherein the spin_unlock()
      implementation had an `sev` after `stlr` which is not sufficient. A dsb is
      needed to ensure that the stlr completes prior to the sev. Having a dsb is
      heavyweight and a better solution would be to use load exclusive semantics
      to monitor the lock and wake up from wfe when a store happens to the lock.
      The patch implements the same.
