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.

This patch fixes up the AArch64 assembly code to use adrp/adr instructions instead of ldr instruction for reference to symbols. This allows these assembly sequences to be Position Independant. Note that the the reference to sizes have been replaced with calculation of size at runtime. This is because size is a constant value and does not depend on execution address and using PC relative instructions for loading them makes them relative to execution address. Also we cannot use `ldr` instruction to load size as it generates a dynamic relocation entry which must *not* be fixed up and it is difficult for a dynamic loader to differentiate which entries need to be skipped.

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.

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.

Introduce zeromem_dczva function on AArch64 that can handle unaligned addresses and make use of DC ZVA instruction to zero a whole block at a time. This zeroing takes place directly in the cache to speed it up without doing external memory access. Remove the zeromem16 function on AArch64 and replace it with an alias to zeromem. This zeromem16 function is now deprecated. Remove the 16-bytes alignment constraint on __BSS_START__ in firmware-design.md as it is now not mandatory anymore (it used to comply with zeromem16 requirements). Change the 16-bytes alignment constraints in SP min's linker script to a 8-bytes alignment constraint as the AArch32 zeromem implementation is now more efficient on 8-bytes aligned addresses. Introduce zero_normalmem and zeromem helpers in platform agnostic header that are implemented this way: * AArch32: * zero_normalmem: zero using usual data access * zeromem: alias for zero_normalmem * AArch64: * zero_normalmem: zero normal memory using DC ZVA instruction (needs MMU enabled) * zeromem: zero using usual data access Usage guidelines: in most cases, zero_normalmem should be preferred. There are 2 scenarios where zeromem (or memset) must be used instead: * Code that must run with MMU disabled (which means all memory is considered device memory for data accesses). * Code that fills device memory with null bytes. Optionally, the following rule can be applied if performance is important: * Code zeroing small areas (few bytes) that are not secrets should use memset to take advantage of compiler optimizations. Note: Code zeroing security-related critical information should use zero_normalmem/zeromem instead of memset to avoid removal by compilers' optimizations in some cases or misbehaving versions of GCC.

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.

Added a new platform porting function plat_panic_handler, to allow platforms to handle unexpected error situations. It must be implemented in assembly as it may be called before the C environment is initialized. A default implementation is provided, which simply spins. Corrected all dead loops in generic code to call this function instead. This includes the dead loop that occurs at the end of the call to panic(). All unnecesary wfis from bl32/tsp/aarch64/tsp_exceptions.S have been removed. Change-Id: I67cb85f6112fa8e77bd62f5718efcef4173d8134

The primary usage of `RUN_IMAGE` SMC function id, used by BL2 is to make a request to BL1 to execute BL31. But BL2 also uses it as opcode to check if it is allowed to execute which is not the intended usage of `RUN_IMAGE` SMC. This patch removes the usage of `RUN_IMAGE` as opcode passed to next EL to check if it is allowed to execute. Change-Id: I6aebe0415ade3f43401a4c8a323457f032673657

On the ARMv8 architecture, cache maintenance operations by set/way on the last level of integrated cache do not affect the system cache. This means that such a flush or clean operation could result in the data being pushed out to the system cache rather than main memory. Another CPU could access this data before it enables its data cache or MMU. Such accesses could be serviced from the main memory instead of the system cache. If the data in the sysem cache has not yet been flushed or evicted to main memory then there could be a loss of coherency. The only mechanism to guarantee that the main memory will be updated is to use cache maintenance operations to the PoC by MVA(See section D3.4.11 (System level caches) of ARMv8-A Reference Manual (Issue A.g/ARM DDI0487A.G). This patch removes the reliance of Trusted Firmware on the flush by set/way operation to ensure visibility of data in the main memory. Cache maintenance operations by MVA are now used instead. The following are the broad category of changes: 1. The RW areas of BL2/BL31/BL32 are invalidated by MVA before the C runtime is initialised. This ensures that any stale cache lines at any level of cache are removed. 2. Updates to global data in runtime firmware (BL31) by the primary CPU are made visible to secondary CPUs using a cache clean operation by MVA. 3. Cache maintenance by set/way operations are only used prior to power down. NOTE: NON-UPSTREAM TRUSTED FIRMWARE CODE SHOULD MAKE EQUIVALENT CHANGES IN ORDER TO FUNCTION CORRECTLY ON PLATFORMS WITH SUPPORT FOR SYSTEM CACHES.

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.

This patch disables routing of external aborts from lower exception levels to EL3 and ensures that a SError interrupt generated as a result of execution in EL3 is taken locally instead of a lower exception level. The SError interrupt is enabled in the TSP code only when the operation has not been directly initiated by the normal world. This is to prevent the possibility of an asynchronous external abort which originated in normal world from being taken when execution is in S-EL1.

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. Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#219 Change-Id: If675a1de8e8d25122b7fef147cb238d939f90b5e

This patch reworks the manner in which the M,A, C, SA, I, WXN & EE bits of SCTLR_EL3 & SCTLR_EL1 are managed. The EE bit is cleared immediately after reset in EL3. The I, A and SA bits are set next in EL3 and immediately upon entry in S-EL1. These bits are no longer managed in the blX_arch_setup() functions. They do not have to be saved and restored either. The M, WXN and optionally the C bit are set in the enable_mmu_elX() function. This is done during both the warm and cold boot paths.

This patch reworks the cold boot path across the BL1, BL2, BL3-1 and BL3-2 boot loader stages to not use stacks allocated in coherent memory for early platform setup and enabling the MMU. Stacks allocated in normal memory are used instead. Attributes for stack memory change from nGnRnE when the MMU is disabled to Normal WBWA Inner-shareable when the MMU and data cache are enabled. It is possible for the CPU to read stale stack memory after the MMU is enabled from another CPUs cache. Hence, it is unsafe to turn on the MMU and data cache while using normal stacks when multiple CPUs are a part of the same coherency domain. It is safe to do so in the cold boot path as only the primary cpu executes it. The secondary cpus are in a quiescent state. This patch does not remove the allocation of coherent stack memory. That is done in a subsequent patch. Change-Id: I12c80b7c7ab23506d425c5b3a8a7de693498f830

This patch reworks the handover interface from: BL1 to BL2 and BL2 to BL3-1. It removes the raise_el(), change_el(), drop_el() and run_image() functions as they catered for code paths that were never exercised. BL1 calls bl1_run_bl2() to jump into BL2 instead of doing the same by calling run_image(). Similarly, BL2 issues the SMC to transfer execution to BL3-1 through BL1 directly. Only x0 and x1 are used to pass arguments to BL31. These arguments and parameters for running BL3-1 are passed through a reference to a 'el_change_info_t' structure. They were being passed value in general purpose registers earlier. Change-Id: Id4fd019a19a9595de063766d4a66295a2c9307e1

The current code does not always use data and instruction barriers as required by the architecture and frequently uses barriers excessively due to their inclusion in all of the write_*() helper functions. Barriers should be used explicitly in assembler or C code when modifying processor state that requires the barriers in order to enable review of correctness of the code. This patch removes the barriers from the helper functions and introduces them as necessary elsewhere in the code. PORTING NOTE: check any port of Trusted Firmware for use of system register helper functions for reliance on the previous barrier behaviour and add explicit barriers as necessary.
