This patch fixes the incorrect bit width used to extract the primary cpu id from `ap_data` exported by scp at SCP_BOOT_CFG_ADDR in platform_is_primary_cpu(). Change-Id: I14abb361685f31164ecce0755fc1a145903b27aa

There has been a breaking change in the communication protocols used between the AP cores and the SCP on CSS based platforms like Juno. This means both the AP Trusted Firmware and SCP firmware must be updated at the same time. In case the user forgets to update the SCP ROM firmware, this patch detects when it still uses the previous version of the communication protocol. It will then output a comprehensive error message that helps trouble-shoot the issue. Change-Id: I7baf8f05ec0b7d8df25e0ee53df61fe7be0207c2

The communication protocol used between the AP cores and the SCP in CSS-based platforms like Juno has undergone a number of changes. This patch makes the required modifications to the SCP Boot Protocol, SCPI Protocol and MHU driver code in shared CSS platform code so that the AP cores are still able to communicate with the SCP. This patch focuses on the mandatory changes to make it work. The design of this code needs to be improved but this will come in a subsequent patch. The main changes are: - MHU communication protocol - The command ID and payload size are no longer written into the MHU registers directly. Instead, they are stored in the payload area. The MHU registers are now used only as a doorbell to kick off messages. Same goes for any command result, the AP has to pick it up from the payload area. - SCP Boot Protocol - The BL3-0 image is now expected to embed a checksum. This checksum must be passed to the SCP, which uses it to check the integrity of the image it received. - The BL3-0 image used to be transferred a block (4KB) at a time. The SCP now supports receiving up to 128KB at a time, which is more than the size of the BL3-0 image. Therefore, the image is now sent in one go. - The command IDs have changed. - SCPI Protocol - The size of the SCPI payload has been reduced down from 512 bytes to 256 bytes. This changes the base address of the AP-to-SCP payload area. - For commands that have a response, the response is the same SCPI header that was sent, except for the size and the status, which both must be updated appropriately. Success/Failure of a command is determined by looking at the updated status code. - Some command IDs have changed. NOTE: THIS PATCH BREAKS COMPATIBILITY WITH FORMER VERSIONS OF THE SCP FIRMWARE AND THUS REQUIRES AN UPDATE OF THIS BINARY. THE LATEST SCP BINARY CAN BE OBTAINED FROM THE ARM CONNECTED COMMUNITY WEBSITE. Change-Id: Ia5f6b95fe32401ee04a3805035748e8ef6718da7

This major change pulls out the common functionality from the FVP and Juno platform ports into the following categories: * (include/)plat/common. Common platform porting functionality that typically may be used by all platforms. * (include/)plat/arm/common. Common platform porting functionality that may be used by all ARM standard platforms. This includes all ARM development platforms like FVP and Juno but may also include non-ARM-owned platforms. * (include/)plat/arm/board/common. Common platform porting functionality for ARM development platforms at the board (off SoC) level. * (include/)plat/arm/css/common. Common platform porting functionality at the ARM Compute SubSystem (CSS) level. Juno is an example of a CSS-based platform. * (include/)plat/arm/soc/common. Common platform porting functionality at the ARM SoC level, which is not already defined at the ARM CSS level. No guarantees are made about the backward compatibility of functionality provided in (include/)plat/arm. Also remove any unnecessary variation between the ARM development platform ports, including: * Unify the way BL2 passes `bl31_params_t` to BL3-1. Use the Juno implementation, which copies the information from BL2 memory instead of expecting it to persist in shared memory. * Unify the TZC configuration. There is no need to add a region for SCP in Juno; it's enough to simply not allow any access to this reserved region. Also set region 0 to provide no access by default instead of assuming this is the case. * Unify the number of memory map regions required for ARM development platforms, although the actual ranges mapped for each platform may be different. For the FVP port, this reduces the mapped peripheral address space. These latter changes will only be observed when the platform ports are migrated to use the new common platform code in subsequent patches. Change-Id: Id9c269dd3dc6e74533d0e5116fdd826d53946dc8
