This patch is an optimization in the bakery_lock_get() function
which removes the wfe() when waiting for other contenders to choose
their ticket i.e when their `entering` flag is set. Since the time
taken to execute bakery_get_ticket() by other contenders is bounded,
this wait is a bounded time wait. Hence the removal of wfe() and the
corresponding sev() and dsb() in bakery_get_ticket() may result
in better time performance during lock acquisition.

Invalidate the dcache after initializing cpu-ops

Juno: Add support for image overlaying in Trusted SRAM

This patch fixes a crash due to corruption of cpu_ops
data structure. During the secondary CPU boot, after the
cpu_ops has been initialized in the per cpu-data, the
dcache lines need to invalidated so that the update in
memory can be seen later on when the dcaches are turned ON.
Also, after initializing the psci per cpu data, the dcache
lines are flushed so that they are written back to memory
and dirty dcache lines are avoided.

Fix reset to BL3-1 instructions in user guide, part 3

Patch 20d51cad moved the shared data page from the top of the
Trusted SRAM to the bottom, changing the load addresses of BL3-1
and BL3-2.

This patch updates BL3-1 and BL3-2 addresses in the instructions
to run the Trusted Firmware on FVP using BL3-1 as reset vector.

This patch is similar to but distinct from bfb1dd51 and 7ea4c437.

User Guide: Enable secure memory on Foundation FVP

Prevent optimisation of sysregs accessors calls

Bug fix: initialize bl30_image_info fields before use

This patch allows the BL3-1 NOBITS section to overlap the BL1 R/W
section since the former will always be used after the latter.
Similarly, the BL3-2 NOBITS section can overlay the BL2 image
when BL3-2 is loaded in Trusted SRAM.

Due to the current size of the images, there is no actual overlap.
Nevertheless, this reorganization may help to optimise the Trusted
SRAM usage when the images size grows.

Note that because BL3-1 NOBITS section is allowed to overlap the
BL1 R/W section, BL1 global variables will remain valid only until
execution reaches the BL3-1 entry point during a cold boot.

Documentation updated accordingly.

Previously, the User Guide recommended launching the Foundation
FVP with the parameter --no-secure-memory, which disabled security
control of the address map. This was due to missing support for
secure memory regions in v1 of the Foundation FVP. This is no longer
needed as secure memory is now supported on the Foundation FVP.

This patch updates the User Guide to recommend enabling secure
memory instead.

Calls to system register read accessors functions may be optimised
out by the compiler if called twice in a row for the same register.
This is because the compiler is not aware that the result from
the instruction may be modified by external agents. Therefore, if
nothing modifies the register between the 2 reads as far as the
compiler knows then it might consider that it is useless to read
it twice and emit only 1 call.

This behaviour is faulty for registers that may not have the same
value if read twice in succession. E.g.: counters, timer
control/countdown registers, GICv3 interrupt status registers and
so on.

The same problem happens for calls to system register write
accessors functions. The compiler might optimise out some calls
if it considers that it will produce the same result. Again, this
behaviour is faulty for cases where intermediate writes to these
registers make a difference in the system.

This patch fixes the problem by making these assembly register
accesses volatile.

fip_create: don't succeed if one of the passed files doesn't exist

Fix CPU_SUSPEND when invoked with affinity level higher than get_max_aff...

Remove IRQ_SEC_SGI_8 constant

This patch allows to define the name of the FIP at build time by
defining the FIP_NAME variable. If FIP_NAME is not defined, default
name 'fip.bin' is used.

Documentation updated accordingly.

Change-Id: Ic41f42aac379b0c958b3dfd02863ba8ba7108710

This patch fixes the assertion failure when CPU_SUSPEND is invoked with
an affinity level higher than supported by the platform by adding suitable
checks for affinity level within `psci_cpu_suspend`. Also added suitable
bound checks within `psci_aff_map_get_idx` to prevent indexing beyond array
limits.

If one of the files passed to fip_create on the command line doesn't
exist, it will print an error message but produce an incomplete
fip.bin file and report success. This behaviour could potentially
hide errors made in the command line arguments.

This patch addresses the issue by having the tool bail out if one of
the supplied files can't be processed.

Fix problem of dependencies on the fiptool makefile target

The 'fiptool' target doesn't depend on fip_create's source files,
neither directly nor indirectly. As a result, the FIP tool is not
rebuilt whenever its source files change.

This patch makes the ${FIPTOOL} target into a phony target so that the
FIP tool's sub-makefile is always called. The sub-makefile correctly
handles the dependencies. It also moves the completion message into
the sub-makefile so that it is only displayed when the tool is
actually recompiled.

Precede a 'sev' with a 'dsb' in bakery lock code

This patch fixes a bug in the bakery lock implementation where a data
synchronisation barrier instruction is not issued before sending an event as
mandated by the ARMv8 ARM. This can cause a event to be signalled before the
related memory accesses have completed resulting in erroneous execution.

UART1.

Improvements to ARM GIC driver
Juno: Use the generic ARM GIC driver

This patch replaces the usage of the GIC private driver in Juno with
the generic ARM GIC driver. The private driver is no longer necessary
and has been removed from the Juno port.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#253

Change-Id: I6aaabc252e5e6fb5fcf44ab6d0febd9b38791056

This patch introduces several improvements to the ARM GIC driver:

* In function gicd_set_itargetsr(), target CPU is specified using
  the same bit mask detailed in the GICD_ITARGETSRn register instead
  of the CPU linear ID, removing the dependency between bit position
  and linear ID in the platform porting. The current CPU bit mask
  may be obtained by reading GICD_ITARGETSR0.

* PPIs and SGIs are initialized in arm_gic_pcpu_distif_setup().
  SPIs are initialized in arm_gic_distif_setup().

* By default, non secure interrupts are assigned the maximum
  priority allowed to a non secure interrupt (defined by
  GIC_HIGHEST_NS_PRIORITY).

* GICR base address is allowed to be NULL for GICv1 and GICv2.

Add level specific cache operations and changes to errata workaround mechanism

This patch optimizes the Cortex-A57 cluster power down sequence by not
flushing the Level1 data cache. The L1 data cache and the L2 unified
cache are inclusive. A flush of the L2 by set/way flushes any dirty
lines from the L1 as well. This is a known safe deviation from the
Cortex-A57 TRM defined power down sequence. This optimization can be
enabled by the platform through the 'SKIP_A57_L1_FLUSH_PWR_DWN' build
flag. Each Cortex-A57 based platform must make its own decision on
whether to use the optimization.

This patch also renames the cpu-errata-workarounds.md to
cpu-specific-build-macros.md as this facilitates documentation
of both CPU Specific errata and CPU Specific Optimization
build macros.

power down sequence.

Change-Id: I048d12d830c1b974b161224eff079fb9f8ecf52d

Prior to this patch, the errata workarounds were applied for any version
of the CPU in the release build and in the debug build an assert
failure resulted when the revision did not match. This patch applies
errata workarounds in the Cortex-A57 reset handler only if the 'variant'
and 'revision' fields read from the MIDR_EL1 match. In the debug build,
a warning message is printed for each errata workaround which is not
applied.

The patch modifies the register usage in 'reset_handler` so
as to adhere to ARM procedure calling standards.

This patch adds level specific cache maintenance functions
to cache_helpers.S. The new functions 'dcsw_op_levelx',
where '1 <= x <= 3', allow to perform cache maintenance by
set/way for that particular level of cache.  With this patch,
functions to support cache maintenance upto level 3 have
been implemented since it is the highest cache level for
most ARM SoCs.

These functions are now utilized in CPU specific power down
sequences to implement them as mandated by processor specific
technical reference manual.
