Various CPU drivers in ARM Trusted Firmware register functions to handle power-down operations. At present, separate functions are registered to power down individual cores and clusters. This scheme operates on the basis of core and cluster, and doesn't cater for extending the hierarchy for power-down operations. For example, future CPUs might support multiple threads which might need powering down individually. This patch therefore reworks the CPU operations framework to allow for registering power down handlers on specific level basis. Henceforth: - Generic code invokes CPU power down operations by the level required. - CPU drivers explicitly mention CPU_NO_RESET_FUNC when the CPU has no reset function. - CPU drivers register power down handlers as a list: a mandatory handler for level 0, and optional handlers for higher levels. All existing CPU drivers are adapted to the new CPU operations framework without needing any functional changes within. Also update firmware design guide.

In AArch64, depending on the granularity of the translation tables, level 0 and/or level 1 of the translation tables may not support block descriptors, only table descriptors. This patch introduces a check to make sure that, even if theoretically it could be possible to create a block descriptor to map a big memory region, a new subtable will be created to describe its mapping.

Added the definitions `PLAT_PHY_ADDR_SPACE_SIZE` and `PLAT_VIRT_ADDR_SPACE_SIZE` which specify respectively the physical and virtual address space size a platform can use. `ADDR_SPACE_SIZE` is now deprecated. To maintain compatibility, if any of the previous defines aren't present, the value of `ADDR_SPACE_SIZE` will be used instead. For AArch64, register ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1 is checked to calculate the max PA supported by the hardware and to verify that the previously mentioned definition is valid. For AArch32, a 40 bit physical address space is considered. Added asserts to check for overflows. Porting guide updated.

Each translation table level entry can only map a given virtual address onto physical addresses of the same granularity. For example, with the current configuration, a level 2 entry maps blocks of 2 MB, so the physical address must be aligned to 2 MB. If the address is not aligned, the MMU will just ignore the lower bits. This patch adds an assertion to make sure that physical addresses are always aligned to the correct boundary.

There is no guarantee on the signedness of char. It can be either signed or unsigned. On ARM it is unsigned and hence this memcmp() implementation works as intended. On other machines, char can be signed (x86 for example). In that case (and assuming a 2's complement implementation), interpreting a bit-pattern of 0xFF as signed char can yield -1. If *s1 is 0 and *s2 is 255 then the difference *s1 - *s2 should be negative. The C integer promotion rules guarantee that the unsigned chars will be converted to int before the operation takes place. The current implementation will return a positive value (0 - (-1)) instead, which is wrong. Fix it by changing the signedness to unsigned to avoid surprises for anyone using this code on non-ARM systems.

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.

This patch resets EL2 and EL3 registers that have architecturally UNKNOWN values on reset and that also provide EL2/EL3 configuration and trap controls. Specifically, the EL2 physical timer is disabled to prevent timer interrups into EL2 - CNTHP_CTL_EL2 and CNTHP_CTL for AArch64 and AArch32, respectively. Additionally, for AArch64, HSTR_EL2 is reset to avoid unexpected traps of non-secure access to certain system registers at EL1 or lower. For AArch32, the patch also reverts the reset to SDCR which was incorrectly added in a previous change.

This patch fixes an issue in the normal memory bakery lock implementation. During assertion of lock status, there is a possibility that the assertion could fail. This is because the previous update done to the lock status by the owning CPU when not participating in cache coherency could result in stale data in the cache due to cache maintenance operations not propagating to all the caches. This patch fixes this issue by doing an extra read cache maintenance operation prior to the assertion.

In order to avoid unexpected traps into EL3/MON mode, this patch resets the debug registers, MDCR_EL3 and MDCR_EL2 for AArch64, and SDCR and HDCR for AArch32. MDCR_EL3/SDCR is zero'ed when EL3/MON mode is entered, at the start of BL1 and BL31/SMP_MIN. For MDCR_EL2/HDCR, this patch zero's the bits that are architecturally UNKNOWN values on reset. This is done when exiting from EL3/MON mode but only on platforms that support EL2/HYP mode but choose to exit to EL1/SVC mode.

The values of CP15BEN, nTWI & nTWE bits in SCTLR_EL1 are architecturally unknown if EL3 is AARCH64 whereas they reset to 1 if EL3 is AArch32. This might be a compatibility break for legacy AArch32 normal world software if these bits are not set to 1 when EL3 is AArch64. This patch enables the CP15BEN, nTWI and nTWE bits in the SCTLR_EL1 if the lower non-secure EL is AArch32. This unifies the SCTLR settings for lower non-secure EL in AArch32 mode for both AArch64 and AArch32 builds of Trusted Firmware.

In order to quantify the overall time spent in the PSCI software implementation, an initial collection of PMF instrumentation points has been added. Instrumentation has been added to the following code paths: - Entry to PSCI SMC handler. The timestamp is captured as early as possible during the runtime exception and stored in memory before entering the PSCI SMC handler. - Exit from PSCI SMC handler. The timestamp is captured after normal return from the PSCI SMC handler or if a low power state was requested it is captured in the bl31 warm boot path before return to normal world. - Entry to low power state. The timestamp is captured before entry to a low power state which implies either standby or power down. As these power states are mutually exclusive, only one timestamp is defined to describe both. It is possible to differentiate between the two power states using the PSCI STAT interface. - Exit from low power state. The timestamp is captured after a standby or power up operation has completed. To calculate the number of cycles spent running code in Trusted Firmware one can perform the following calculation: (exit_psci - enter_psci) - (exit_low_pwr - enter_low_pwr). The resulting number of cycles can be converted to time given the frequency of the counter. Change-Id: Ie3b8f3d16409b6703747093b3a2d5c7429ad0166 Signed-off-by: dp-arm <dimitris.papastamos@arm.com>

At present the `el3_entrypoint_common` macro uses `memcpy` function defined in lib/stdlib/mem.c file, to copy data from ROM to RAM for BL1. Depending on the compiler being used the stack could potentially be used, in `memcpy`, for storing the local variables. Since the stack is initialized much later in `el3_entrypoint_common` it may result in unknown behaviour. This patch adds `memcpy4` function definition in assembly so that it can be used before the stack is initialized and it also replaces `memcpy` by `memcpy4` in `el3_entrypoint_common` macro, to copy data from ROM to RAM for BL1.

This patch introduces a `psci_lib_args_t` structure which must be passed into `psci_setup()` which is then used to initialize the PSCI library. The `psci_lib_args_t` is a versioned structure so as to enable compatibility checks during library initialization. Both BL31 and SP_MIN are modified to use the new structure. SP_MIN is also modified to add version string and build message as part of its cold boot log just like the other BLs in Trusted Firmware. NOTE: Please be aware that this patch modifies the prototype of `psci_setup()`, which breaks compatibility with EL3 Runtime Firmware (excluding BL31 and SP_MIN) integrated with the PSCI Library.

This patch adds common changes to support AArch32 state in BL1 and BL2. Following are the changes: * Added functions for disabling MMU from Secure state. * Added AArch32 specific SMC function. * Added semihosting support. * Added reporting of unhandled exceptions. * Added uniprocessor stack support. * Added `el3_entrypoint_common` macro that can be shared by BL1 and BL32 (SP_MIN) BL stages. The `el3_entrypoint_common` is similar to the AArch64 counterpart with the main difference in the assembly instructions and the registers that are relevant to AArch32 execution state. * Enabled `LOAD_IMAGE_V2` flag in Makefile for `ARCH=aarch32` and added check to make sure that platform has not overridden to disable it.

This patch fixes a bug in context management library when writing SCTLR register during context initialization. The write happened prior to initialization of the register context pointer. This resulted in the compiler optimizing the write sequence from the final binary and hence SCTLR remains uninitialized when entering normal world. The bug is fixed by doing the initialization of the register context pointer earlier in the sequence. Change-Id: Ic7465593a74534046b79f40446ffa1165c52ed76

Instead of hardcoding a level 1 table as the base translation level table, let the code decide which level is the most appropriate given the virtual address space size. As the table granularity is 4 KB, this allows the code to select level 0, 1 or 2 as base level for AArch64. This way, instead of limiting the virtual address space width to 39-31 bits, widths of 48-25 bit can be used. For AArch32, this change allows the code to select level 1 or 2 as the base translation level table and use virtual address space width of 32-25 bits. Also removed some unused definitions related to translation tables. Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#362 Change-Id: Ie3bb5d6d1a4730a26700b09827c79f37ca3cdb65

This patch adds AArch32 support to PSCI library, as follows : * The `psci_helpers.S` is implemented for AArch32. * AArch32 version of internal helper function `psci_get_ns_ep_info()` is defined. * The PSCI Library is responsible for the Non Secure context initialization. Hence a library interface `psci_prepare_next_non_secure_ctx()` is introduced to enable EL3 runtime firmware to initialize the non secure context without invoking context management library APIs.

A PSCI CPU_SUSPEND request to place a CPU in retention states at power levels higher than the CPU power level is subject to the same state coordination as a power down state. A CPU could implement multiple retention states at a particular power level. When exiting WFI, the non-CPU power levels may be in a different retention state to what was initially requested, therefore each CPU should refresh its view of the states of all power levels. Previously, a CPU re-used the state of the power levels when it entered the retention state. This patch fixes this issue by ensuring that a CPU upon exit from retention reads the state of each power level afresh. Change-Id: I93b5f5065c63400c6fd2598dbaafac385748f989

This patch adds a runtime check that psci_find_target_suspend_lvl() returns a valid value back to psci_cpu_suspend() and psci_get_stat(). If it is invalid, BL31 will now panic. Note that on the PSCI CPU suspend path there is already a debug assertion checking the validity of the target composite power state, which effectively also checks the validity of the target suspend level. Therefore, the error condition would already be caught in debug builds, but in a release build this assertion would be compiled out. On the PSCI stat path, there is currently no debug assertion checking the validity of the power state before using it as an index into the power domain state array. Although BL31 platforms ports are responsible for validating the power state parameter, the security impact (i.e. an out-of-bounds array access) of a potential platform port bug in this code would be quite high, given that this parameter comes from an untrusted source. The cost of checking this in runtime generic code is low. Change-Id: Icea85b8020e39928ac03ec0cd49805b5857b3906

This patch introduces the PSCI Library interface. The major changes introduced are as follows: * Earlier BL31 was responsible for Architectural initialization during cold boot via bl31_arch_setup() whereas PSCI was responsible for the same during warm boot. This functionality is now consolidated by the PSCI library and it does Architectural initialization via psci_arch_setup() during both cold and warm boots. * Earlier the warm boot entry point was always `psci_entrypoint()`. This was not flexible enough as a library interface. Now PSCI expects the runtime firmware to provide the entry point via `psci_setup()`. A new function `bl31_warm_entrypoint` is introduced in BL31 and the previous `psci_entrypoint()` is deprecated. * The `smc_helpers.h` is reorganized to separate the SMC Calling Convention defines from the Trusted Firmware SMC helpers. The former is now in a new header file `smcc.h` and the SMC helpers are moved to Architecture specific header. * The CPU context is used by PSCI for context initialization and restoration after power down (PSCI Context). It is also used by BL31 for SMC handling and context management during Normal-Secure world switch (SMC Context). The `psci_smc_handler()` interface is redefined to not use SMC helper macros thus enabling to decouple the PSCI context from EL3 runtime firmware SMC context. This enables PSCI to be integrated with other runtime firmware using a different SMC context. NOTE: With this patch the architectural setup done in `bl31_arch_setup()` is done as part of `psci_setup()` and hence `bl31_platform_setup()` will be invoked prior to architectural setup. It is highly unlikely that the platform setup will depend on architectural setup and cause any failure. Please be be aware of this change in sequence.

This patch moves the PSCI services and BL31 frameworks like context management and per-cpu data into new library components `PSCI` and `el3_runtime` respectively. This enables PSCI to be built independently from BL31. A new `psci_lib.mk` makefile is introduced which adds the relevant PSCI library sources and gets included by `bl31.mk`. Other changes which are done as part of this patch are: * The runtime services framework is now moved to the `common/` folder to enable reuse. * The `asm_macros.S` and `assert_macros.S` helpers are moved to architecture specific folder. * The `plat_psci_common.c` is moved from the `plat/common/aarch64/` folder to `plat/common` folder. The original file location now has a stub which just includes the file from new location to maintain platform compatibility. Most of the changes wouldn't affect platform builds as they just involve changes to the generic bl1.mk and bl31.mk makefiles. NOTE: THE `plat_psci_common.c` FILE HAS MOVED LOCATION AND THE STUB FILE AT THE ORIGINAL LOCATION IS NOW DEPRECATED. PLATFORMS SHOULD MODIFY THEIR MAKEFILES TO INCLUDE THE FILE FROM THE NEW LOCATION.

This patch reworks type usage in generic code, drivers and ARM platform files to make it more portable. The major changes done with respect to type usage are as listed below: * Use uintptr_t for storing address instead of uint64_t or unsigned long. * Review usage of unsigned long as it can no longer be assumed to be 64 bit. * Use u_register_t for register values whose width varies depending on whether AArch64 or AArch32. * Use generic C types where-ever possible. In addition to the above changes, this patch also modifies format specifiers in print invocations so that they are AArch64/AArch32 agnostic. Only files related to upcoming feature development have been reworked. Change-Id: I9f8c78347c5a52ba7027ff389791f1dad63ee5f8

This patch introduces a new header file: include/lib/utils.h. Its purpose is to provide generic macros and helper functions that are independent of any BL image, architecture, platform and even not specific to Trusted Firmware. For now, it contains only 2 macros: ARRAY_SIZE() and IS_POWER_OF_TWO(). These were previously defined in bl_common.h and xlat_tables.c respectively. bl_common.h includes utils.h to retain compatibility for platforms that relied on bl_common.h for the ARRAY_SIZE() macro. Upstream platform ports that use this macro have been updated to include utils.h. Change-Id: I960450f54134f25d1710bfbdc4184f12c049a9a9

These new attributes should be used only for normal, read-only memory regions.

This patch adds Performance Measurement Framework(PMF) in the ARM Trusted Firmware. PMF is implemented as a library and the SMC interface is provided through ARM SiP service. The PMF provides capturing, storing, dumping and retrieving the time-stamps, by enabling the development of services by different providers, that can be easily integrated into ARM Trusted Firmware. The PMF capture and retrieval APIs can also do appropriate cache maintenance operations to the timestamp memory when the caller indicates so. `pmf_main.c` consists of core functions that implement service registration, initialization, storing, dumping and retrieving the time-stamp. `pmf_smc.c` consists SMC handling for registered PMF services. `pmf.h` consists of the macros that can be used by the PMF service providers to register service and declare time-stamp functions. `pmf_helpers.h` consists of internal macros that are used by `pmf.h` By default this feature is disabled in the ARM trusted firmware. To enable it set the boolean flag `ENABLE_PMF` to 1. NOTE: The caller is responsible for specifying the appropriate cache maintenance flags and for acquiring/releasing appropriate locks before/after capturing/retrieving the time-stamps.
