      Replace __ASSEMBLY__ with compiler-builtin __ASSEMBLER__ · d5dfdeb6
      Julius Werner authored
      
      
      NOTE: __ASSEMBLY__ macro is now deprecated in favor of __ASSEMBLER__.
      
      All common C compilers predefine a macro called __ASSEMBLER__ when
      preprocessing a .S file. There is no reason for TF-A to define it's own
      __ASSEMBLY__ macro for this purpose instead. To unify code with the
      export headers (which use __ASSEMBLER__ to avoid one extra dependency),
      let's deprecate __ASSEMBLY__ and switch the code base over to the
      predefined standard.

      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.

      SPM: Deprecate the current implementation · 2d7b9e5e
      Antonio Nino Diaz authored
      
      
      The current SPM is a prototype that only supports one secure partition
      in EL0. The objective of SPM is to have multiple partitions. The current
      MM interface isn't adequate for this, so it is needed to modify heavily
      the code to add proper support for it.
      
      However, there are platforms which are already using this (like SGI) and
      removing the code would break it.  For this reason, the current SPM code
      has been duplicated in order to temporarily preserve compatibility. All
      new improvements/changes to SPM will be done in the non-deprecated copy,
      that may change without notice.
      
      The new build option SPM_DEPRECATED has been introduced to select the SPM
      implementation. It defaults to 1, that selects the deprecated SPM.

      Standardise header guards across codebase · c3cf06f1
      Antonio Nino Diaz authored
      
      
      All identifiers, regardless of use, that start with two underscores are
      reserved. This means they can't be used in header guards.
      
      The style that this project is now to use the full name of the file in
      capital letters followed by 'H'. For example, for a file called
      "uart_example.h", the header guard is UART_EXAMPLE_H.
      
      The exceptions are files that are imported from other projects:
      
      - CryptoCell driver
      - dt-bindings folders
      - zlib headers

      SPM: Introduce Secure Partition Manager · 2fccb228
      Antonio Nino Diaz authored
      
      
      A Secure Partition is a software execution environment instantiated in
      S-EL0 that can be used to implement simple management and security
      services. Since S-EL0 is an unprivileged exception level, a Secure
      Partition relies on privileged firmware e.g. ARM Trusted Firmware to be
      granted access to system and processor resources. Essentially, it is a
      software sandbox that runs under the control of privileged software in
      the Secure World and accesses the following system resources:
      
      - Memory and device regions in the system address map.
      - PE system registers.
      - A range of asynchronous exceptions e.g. interrupts.
      - A range of synchronous exceptions e.g. SMC function identifiers.
      
      A Secure Partition enables privileged firmware to implement only the
      absolutely essential secure services in EL3 and instantiate the rest in
      a partition. Since the partition executes in S-EL0, its implementation
      cannot be overly complex.
      
      The component in ARM Trusted Firmware responsible for managing a Secure
      Partition is called the Secure Partition Manager (SPM). The SPM is
      responsible for the following:
      
      - Validating and allocating resources requested by a Secure Partition.
      - Implementing a well defined interface that is used for initialising a
        Secure Partition.
      - Implementing a well defined interface that is used by the normal world
        and other secure services for accessing the services exported by a
        Secure Partition.
      - Implementing a well defined interface that is used by a Secure
        Partition to fulfil service requests.
      - Instantiating the software execution environment required by a Secure
        Partition to fulfil a service request.
