      PSCI: Add framework to handle composite power states · 8ee24980
      Soby Mathew authored
      The state-id field in the power-state parameter of a CPU_SUSPEND call can be
      used to describe composite power states specific to a platform. The current PSCI
      implementation does not interpret the state-id field. It relies on the target
      power level and the state type fields in the power-state parameter to perform
      state coordination and power management operations. The framework introduced
      in this patch allows the PSCI implementation to intepret generic global states
      like RUN, RETENTION or OFF from the State-ID to make global state coordination
      decisions and reduce the complexity of platform ports. It adds support to
      involve the platform in state coordination which facilitates the use of
      composite power states and improves the support for entering standby states
      at multiple power domains.
      
      The patch also includes support for extended state-id format for the power
      state parameter as specified by PSCIv1.0.
      
      The PSCI implementation now defines a generic representation of the power-state
      parameter. It depends on the platform port to convert the power-state parameter
      (possibly encoding a composite power state) passed in a CPU_SUSPEND call to this
      representation via the `validate_power_state()` plat_psci_ops handler. It is an
      array where each index corresponds to a power level. Each entry contains the
      local power state the power domain at that power level could enter.
      
      The meaning of the local power state values is platform defined, and may vary
      between levels in a single platform. The PSCI implementation constrains the
      values only so that it can classify the state as RUN, RETENTION or OFF as
      required by the specification:
         * zero means RUN
         * all OFF state values at all levels must be higher than all RETENTION
           state values at all levels
         * the platform provides PLAT_MAX_RET_STATE and PLAT_MAX_OFF_STATE values
           to the framework
      
      The platform also must define the macros PLAT_MAX_RET_STATE and
      PLAT_MAX_OFF_STATE which lets the PSCI implementation find out which power
      domains have been requested to enter a retention or power down state. The PSCI
      implementation does not interpret the local power states defined by the
      platform. The only constraint is that the PLAT_MAX_RET_STATE <
      PLAT_MAX_OFF_STATE.
      
      For a power domain tree, the generic implementation maintains an array of local
      power states. These are the states requested for each power domain by all the
      cores contained within the domain. During a request to place multiple power
      domains in a low power state, the platform is passed an array of requested
      power-states for each power domain through the plat_get_target_pwr_state()
      API. It coordinates amongst these states to determine a target local power
      state for the power domain. A default weak implementation of this API is
      provided in the platform layer which returns the minimum of the requested
      power-states back to the PSCI state coordination.
      
      Finally, the plat_psci_ops power management handlers are passed the target
      local power states for each affected power domain using the generic
      representation described above. The platform executes operations specific to
      these target states.
      
      The platform power management handler for placing a power domain in a standby
      state (plat_pm_ops_t.pwr_domain_standby()) is now only used as a fast path for
      placing a core power domain into a standby or retention state should now be
      used to only place the core power domain in a standby or retention state.
      
      The extended state-id power state format can be enabled by setting the
      build flag PSCI_EXTENDED_STATE_ID=1 and it is disabled by default.

      PSCI: Introduce new platform and CM helper APIs · 12d0d00d
      Soby Mathew authored
      This patch introduces new platform APIs and context management helper APIs
      to support the new topology framework based on linear core position. This
      framework will be introduced in the follwoing patch and it removes the
      assumption that the MPIDR based affinity levels map directly to levels
      in a power domain tree. The new platforms APIs and context management
      helpers based on core position are as described below:
      
      * plat_my_core_pos() and plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()
      
      These 2 new mandatory platform APIs are meant to replace the existing
      'platform_get_core_pos()' API. The 'plat_my_core_pos()' API returns the
      linear index of the calling core and 'plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()' returns
      the linear index of a core specified by its MPIDR. The latter API will also
      validate the MPIDR passed as an argument and will return an error code (-1)
      if an invalid MPIDR is passed as the argument. This enables the caller to
      safely convert an MPIDR of another core to its linear index without querying
      the PSCI topology tree e.g. during a call to PSCI CPU_ON.
      
      Since the 'plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()' API verifies an MPIDR, which is always
      platform specific, it is no longer possible to maintain a default implementation
      of this API. Also it might not be possible for a platform port to verify an
      MPIDR before the C runtime has been setup or the topology has been initialized.
      This would prevent 'plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()' from being callable prior to
      topology setup. As a result, the generic Trusted Firmware code does not call
      this API before the topology setup has been done.
      
      The 'plat_my_core_pos' API should be able to run without a C runtime.
      Since this API needs to return a core position which is equal to the one
      returned by 'plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()' API for the corresponding MPIDR,
      this too cannot have default implementation and is a mandatory API for
      platform ports. These APIs will be implemented by the ARM reference platform
      ports later in the patch stack.
      
      * plat_get_my_stack() and plat_set_my_stack()
      
      These APIs are the stack management APIs which set/return stack addresses
      appropriate for the calling core. These replace the 'platform_get_stack()' and
      'platform_set_stack()' APIs. A default weak MP version and a global UP version
      of these APIs are provided for the platforms.
      
      * Context management helpers based on linear core position
      
      A set of new context management(CM) helpers viz cm_get_context_by_index(),
      cm_set_context_by_index(), cm_init_my_context() and cm_init_context_by_index()
      are defined which are meant to replace the old helpers which took MPIDR
      as argument. The old CM helpers are implemented based on the new helpers to
      allow for code consolidation and will be deprecated once the switch to the new
      framework is done.

      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.

      Add CPU specific power management operations · add40351
      Soby Mathew authored
      This patch adds CPU core and cluster power down sequences to the CPU specific
      operations framework introduced in a earlier patch. Cortex-A53, Cortex-A57 and
      generic AEM sequences have been added. The latter is suitable for the
      Foundation and Base AEM FVPs. A pointer to each CPU's operations structure is
      saved in the per-cpu data so that it can be easily accessed during power down
      seqeunces.
      
      An optional platform API has been introduced to allow a platform to disable the
      Accelerator Coherency Port (ACP) during a cluster power down sequence. The weak
      definition of this function (plat_disable_acp()) does not take any action. It
      should be overriden with a strong definition if the ACP is present on a
      platform.

      Add platform API for reset handling · 24fb838f
      Soby Mathew authored
      This patch adds an optional platform API (plat_reset_handler) which allows the
      platform to perform any actions immediately after a cold or warm reset
      e.g. implement errata workarounds. The function is called with MMU and caches
      turned off. This API is weakly defined and does nothing by default but can be
      overriden by a platform with a strong definition.

      Call platform_is_primary_cpu() only from reset handler · 53fdcebd
      Juan Castillo authored
      The purpose of platform_is_primary_cpu() is to determine after reset
      (BL1 or BL3-1 with reset handler) if the current CPU must follow the
      cold boot path (primary CPU), or wait in a safe state (secondary CPU)
      until the primary CPU has finished the system initialization.
      
      This patch removes redundant calls to platform_is_primary_cpu() in
      subsequent bootloader entrypoints since the reset handler already
      guarantees that code is executed exclusively on the primary CPU.
      
      Additionally, this patch removes the weak definition of
      platform_is_primary_cpu(), so the implementation of this function
      becomes mandatory. Removing the weak symbol avoids other
      bootloaders accidentally picking up an invalid definition in case the
      porting layer makes the real function available only to BL1.
      
      The define PRIMARY_CPU is no longer mandatory in the platform porting
      because platform_is_primary_cpu() hides the implementation details
      (for instance, there may be platforms that report the primary CPU in
      a system register). The primary CPU definition in FVP has been moved
      to fvp_def.h.
      
      The porting guide has been updated accordingly.

      Add enable mmu platform porting interfaces · dff8e47a
      Dan Handley authored
      Previously, the enable_mmu_elX() functions were implicitly part of
      the platform porting layer since they were included by generic
      code. These functions have been placed behind 2 new platform
      functions, bl31_plat_enable_mmu() and bl32_plat_enable_mmu().
      These are weakly defined so that they can be optionally overridden
      by platform ports.
      
      Also, the enable_mmu_elX() functions have been moved to
      lib/aarch64/xlat_tables.c for optional re-use by platform ports.
      These functions are tightly coupled with the translation table
      initialization code.

      Split platform.h into separate headers · 5f0cdb05
      Dan Handley authored
      Previously, platform.h contained many declarations and definitions
      used for different purposes. This file has been split so that:
      
      * Platform definitions used by common code that must be defined
        by the platform are now in platform_def.h. The exact include
        path is exported through $PLAT_INCLUDES in the platform makefile.
      
      * Platform definitions specific to the FVP platform are now in
        /plat/fvp/fvp_def.h.
      
      * Platform API declarations specific to the FVP platform are now
        in /plat/fvp/fvp_private.h.
      
      * The remaining platform API declarations that must be ported by
        each platform are still in platform.h but this file has been
        moved to /include/plat/common since this can be shared by all
        platforms.

      Allocate single stacks for BL1 and BL2 · 2bf28e62
      Andrew Thoelke authored
      The BL images share common stack management code which provides
      one coherent and one cacheable stack for every CPU. BL1 and BL2
      just execute on the primary CPU during boot and do not require
      the additional CPU stacks. This patch provides separate stack
      support code for UP and MP images, substantially reducing the
      RAM usage for BL1 and BL2 for the FVP platform.
      
      This patch also provides macros for declaring stacks and
      calculating stack base addresses to improve consistency where
      this has to be done in the firmware.
      
      The stack allocation source files are now included via
      platform.mk rather than the common BLx makefiles. This allows
      each platform to select the appropriate MP/UP stack support
      for each BL image.
      
      Each platform makefile must be updated when including this
      commit.

      psci: fix error due to a non zero context id · c8afc789
      Achin Gupta authored
      In the previous psci implementation, the psci_afflvl_power_on_finish()
      function would run into an error condition if the value of the context
      id parameter in the cpu_on and cpu_suspend psci calls was != 0. The
      parameter was being restored as the return value of the affinity level
      0 finisher function. A non zero context id would be treated as an
      error condition. This would prevent successful wake up of the cpu from
      a power down state. Also, the contents of the general purpose
      registers were not being cleared upon return to the non-secure world
      after a cpu power up. This could potentially allow the non-secure
      world to view secure data.
      
      This patch ensures that all general purpose registers are set to ~0
      prior to the final eret that drops the execution to the non-secure
      world. The context id is used to initialize the general purpose
      register x0 prior to re-entry into the non-secure world and is no
      longer restored as a function return value. A platform helper
      (platform_get_stack()) has been introduced to facilitate this change.
