      Add plat_crash_console_flush to platforms without it · 9c675b37
      Antonio Nino Diaz authored 
      

Even though at this point plat_crash_console_flush is optional, it will
stop being optional in a following patch.

The console driver of warp7 doesn't support flush, so the implementation
is a placeholder.

TI had ``plat_crash_console_init`` and ``plat_crash_console_putc``, but
they weren't global so they weren't actually used. Also, they were
calling the wrong functions.

imx8_helpers.S only has placeholders for all of the functions.

      Add new alignment parameter to func assembler macro · 64726e6d
      Julius Werner authored 
      

Assembler programmers are used to being able to define functions with a
specific aligment with a pattern like this:

    .align X
  myfunction:

However, this pattern is subtly broken when instead of a direct label
like 'myfunction:', you use the 'func myfunction' macro that's standard
in Trusted Firmware. Since the func macro declares a new section for the
function, the .align directive written above it actually applies to the
*previous* section in the assembly file, and the function it was
supposed to apply to is linked with default alignment.

An extreme case can be seen in Rockchip's plat_helpers.S which contains
this code:

  [...]
  endfunc plat_crash_console_putc

  .align 16
  func platform_cpu_warmboot
  [...]

This assembles into the following plat_helpers.o:

  Sections:
  Idx Name                             Size  [...]  Algn
   9 .text.plat_crash_console_putc 00010000  [...]  2**16
  10 .text.platform_cpu_warmboot   00000080  [...]  2**3

As can be seen, the *previous* function actually got the alignment
constraint, and it is also 64KB big even though it contains only two
instructions, because the .align directive at the end of its section
forces the assembler to insert a giant sled of NOPs. The function we
actually wanted to align has the default constraint. This code only
works at all because the linker just happens to put the two functions
right behind each other when linking the final image, and since the end
of plat_crash_console_putc is aligned the start of platform_cpu_warmboot
will also be. But it still wastes almost 64KB of image space
unnecessarily, and it will break under certain circumstances (e.g. if
the plat_crash_console_putc function becomes unused and its section gets
garbage-collected out).

There's no real way to fix this with the existing func macro. Code like

 func myfunc
 .align X

happens to do the right thing, but is still not really correct code
(because the function label is inserted before the .align directive, so
the assembler is technically allowed to insert padding at the beginning
of the function which would then get executed as instructions if the
function was called). Therefore, this patch adds a new parameter with a
default value to the func macro that allows overriding its alignment.

Also fix up all existing instances of this dangerous antipattern.

      Disable PL011 UART before configuring it · 9400b40e
      Juan Castillo authored 
      The PL011 TRM (ARM DDI 0183G) specifies that the UART must be
disabled before any of the control registers are programmed. The
PL011 driver included in TF does not disable the UART, so the
initialization in BL2 and BL31 is violating this requirement
(and potentially in BL1 if the UART is enabled after reset).

This patch modifies the initialization function in the PL011
console driver to disable the UART before programming the
control registers.

Register clobber list and documentation updated.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#300

      Tegra210: wait for 512 timer ticks before retention entry · b42192bc
      Varun Wadekar authored 
      

This patch programs the CPUECTLR_EL1 and L2ECTLR_EL1 registers,
so that the core waits for 512 generic timer CNTVALUEB ticks before
entering retention state, after executing a WFI instruction.

This functionality is configurable and can be enabled for platforms
by setting the newly defined 'ENABLE_L2_DYNAMIC_RETENTION' and
'ENABLE_CPU_DYNAMIC_RETENTION' flag.

      Support for NVIDIA's Tegra T210 SoCs · 08438e24
      Varun Wadekar authored 
      

T210 is the latest chip in the Tegra family of SoCs from NVIDIA. It is an
ARM v8 dual-cluster (A57/A53) SoC, with any one of the clusters being active
at a given point in time.

This patch adds support to boot the Trusted Firmware on T210 SoCs. The patch
also adds support to boot secondary CPUs, enter/exit core power states for
all CPUs in the slow/fast clusters. The support to switch between clusters
is still not available in this patch and would be available later.
