Add device support for the 'lite' K3 devices. These will use modified device addresses and allow for fewer cores to save memory. Note: This family of devices are characterized by a single cluster of ARMv8 processor upto a max of 4 processors and lack of a level 3 cache. The first generation of this family is introduced with AM642. See AM64X Technical Reference Manual (SPRUIM2, Nov 2020) for further details: https://www.ti.com/lit/pdf/spruim2 Signed-off-by: Andrew F.

There are two communication scheme that have been enabled to communicate with Secure Proxy in TI. a) A full fledged prioritized communication scheme, which involves upto 5 threads from the perspective of the host software b) A much simpler "lite" version which is just a two thread scheme involving just a transmit and receive thread scheme. The (a) system is specifically useful when the SoC is massive involving multiple processor systems and where the potential for priority inversion is clearly a system usecase killer. However, this comes with the baggage of significant die area for larger number of instances of secure proxy, ring accelerator and backing memories for queued messages. Example SoCs using this scheme would be: AM654[1], J721E[2], J7200[3] etc. The (b) scheme(aka the lite scheme) is introduced on smaller SoCs where memory and area concerns are paramount. The tradeoff of priority loss is acceptable given the reduced number of processors communicating with the central system controller. This brings about a very significant area and memory usage savings while the loss of communication priority has no demonstrable impact. Example SoC using this scheme would be: AM642[4] While we can detect using JTAG ID and conceptually handle things dynamically, adding such a scheme involves a lot of unused data (cost of ATF memory footprint), pointer lookups (performance cost) and still due to follow on patches, does'nt negate the need for a different build configuration. However, (a) and (b) family of SoCs share the same scheme and addresses etc, this helps minimize our churn quite a bit Instead of introducing a complex data structure lookup scheme, lets keep things simple by first introducing the pieces necessary for an alternate communication scheme, then introduce a second platform representing the "lite" family of K3 processors. NOTE: This is only possible since ATF uses just two (secure) threads for actual communication with the central system controller. This is sufficient for the function that ATF uses. The (a) scheme and the (b) scheme also varies w.r.t the base addresses used, even though the memory window assigned for them have remained consistent. We introduce the delta as part of this change as well. This is expected to remain consistent as a standard in TI SoCs.

commit 65f7b817 ("ti: k3: common: Use coherent memory for shared data") introduced WARMBOOT_ENABLE_DCACHE_EARLY and USE_COHERENT_MEM to handle multiple clusters across L3 cache systems. This is represented by "generic" board in k3 platform. On "lite" platforms, however, system level coherency is lacking since we don't have a global monitor or an L3 cache controller. Though, at a cluster level, ARM CPU level coherency is very much possible since the max number of clusters permitted in lite platform configuration is "1". However, we need to be able to disable USE_COHERENT_MEM for the lite configuration due to the lack of system level coherency. See docs/getting_started/build-options.rst for further information.

When all cores in a cluster are powered down the parent cluster can be also powered down. When the last core has requested powering down follow by sending the cluster power down sequence to the system power controller firmware. Signed-off-by: Andrew F.

The MSMC port defines were added to help in the case when some ports are not connected and have no cores attached. We can get the same functionality by defined the number of cores on that port to zero. This simplifies several code paths, do this here. Signed-off-by: Andrew F.

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.
