      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.

      Introduce the new BL handover interface · a6f340fe
      Soby Mathew authored
      
      
      This patch introduces a new BL handover interface. It essentially allows
      passing 4 arguments between the different BL stages. Effort has been made
      so as to be compatible with the previous handover interface. The previous
      blx_early_platform_setup() platform API is now deprecated and the new
      blx_early_platform_setup2() variant is introduced. The weak compatiblity
      implementation for the new API is done in the `plat_bl_common.c` file.
      Some of the new arguments in the new API will be reserved for generic
      code use when dynamic configuration support is implemented. Otherwise
      the other registers are available for platform use.

      bl2-el3: Add BL2_EL3 image · b1d27b48
      Roberto Vargas authored
      
      
      This patch enables BL2 to execute at the highest exception level
      without any dependancy on TF BL1. This enables platforms which already
      have a non-TF Boot ROM to directly load and execute BL2 and subsequent BL
      stages without need for BL1.  This is not currently possible because
      BL2 executes at S-EL1 and cannot jump straight to EL3.

      Add support for GCC stack protection · 51faada7
      Douglas Raillard authored
      
      
      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.

      Define and use no_ret macro where no return is expected · a806dad5
      Jeenu Viswambharan authored
      
      
      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.

      AArch32: Add generic changes in BL2 · d48c12e9
      Yatharth Kochar authored
      This patch adds generic changes in BL2 to support AArch32 state.
      New AArch32 specific assembly/C files are introduced and
      some files are moved to AArch32/64 specific folders.
      BL2 for AArch64 is refactored but functionally identical.
      
      BL2 executes in Secure SVC mode in AArch32 state.
