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 certain Trusted OS implementations it is a requirement to pass them the
highest power level which will enter a power down state during a PSCI
CPU_SUSPEND or SYSTEM_SUSPEND API invocation. This patch passes this power level
to the SPD in the "max_off_pwrlvl" parameter of the svc_suspend() hook.

Currently, the highest power level which was requested to be placed in a low
power state (retention or power down) is passed to the SPD svc_suspend_finish()
hook. This hook is called after emerging from the low power state. It is more
useful to pass the highest power level which was powered down instead. This
patch does this by changing the semantics of the parameter passed to an SPD's
svc_suspend_finish() hook. The name of the parameter has been changed from
"suspend_level" to "max_off_pwrlvl" as well. Same changes have been made to the
parameter passed to the tsp_cpu_resume_main() function.

NOTE: THIS PATCH CHANGES THE SEMANTICS OF THE EXISTING "svc_suspend_finish()"
      API BETWEEN THE PSCI AND SPD/SP IMPLEMENTATIONS. THE LATTER MIGHT NEED
      UPDATES TO ENSURE CORRECT BEHAVIOUR.

This patch reworks the PSCI generic implementation to conform to ARM
Trusted Firmware coding guidelines as described here:
https://github.com/ARM-software/arm-trusted-firmware/wiki

This patch also reviews the use of signed data types within PSCI
Generic code and replaces them with their unsigned counterparts wherever
they are not appropriate. The PSCI_INVALID_DATA macro which was defined
to -1 is now replaced with PSCI_INVALID_PWR_LVL macro which is defined
to PLAT_MAX_PWR_LVL + 1.

This commit does the switch to the new PSCI framework implementation replacing
the existing files in PSCI folder with the ones in PSCI1.0 folder. The
corresponding makefiles are modified as required for the new implementation.
The platform.h header file is also is switched to the new one
as required by the new frameworks. The build flag ENABLE_PLAT_COMPAT defaults
to 1 to enable compatibility layer which let the existing platform ports to
continue to build and run with minimal changes.

The default weak implementation of platform_get_core_pos() is now removed from
platform_helpers.S and is provided by the compatibility layer.

Note: The Secure Payloads and their dispatchers still use the old platform
and framework APIs and hence it is expected that the ENABLE_PLAT_COMPAT build
flag will remain enabled in subsequent patch. The compatibility for SPDs using
the older APIs on platforms migrated to the new APIs will be added in the
following patch.

There used to be 2 warm reset entry points:

 - the "on finisher", for when the core has been turned on using a
   PSCI CPU_ON call;

 - the "suspend finisher", entered upon resumption from a previous
   PSCI CPU_SUSPEND call.

The appropriate warm reset entry point used to be programmed into the
mailboxes by the power management hooks.

However, it is not required to provide this information to the PSCI
entry point code, as it can figure it out by itself. By querying affinity
info state, a core is able to determine on which execution path it is.
If the state is ON_PENDING then it means it's been turned on else
it is resuming from suspend.

This patch unifies the 2 warm reset entry points into a single one:
psci_entrypoint(). The patch also implements the necessary logic
to distinguish between the 2 types of warm resets in the power up
finisher.

The plat_setup_psci_ops() API now takes the
secure entry point as an additional parameter to enable the platforms
to configure their mailbox. The platform hooks `pwr_domain_on`
and `pwr_domain_suspend` no longer take secure entry point as
a parameter.

The state-id field in the power-state parameter of a CPU_SUSPEND call can be
used to describe composite power states specific to a platform. The current PSCI
implementation does not interpret the state-id field. It relies on the target
power level and the state type fields in the power-state parameter to perform
state coordination and power management operations. The framework introduced
in this patch allows the PSCI implementation to intepret generic global states
like RUN, RETENTION or OFF from the State-ID to make global state coordination
decisions and reduce the complexity of platform ports. It adds support to
involve the platform in state coordination which facilitates the use of
composite power states and improves the support for entering standby states
at multiple power domains.

The patch also includes support for extended state-id format for the power
state parameter as specified by PSCIv1.0.

The PSCI implementation now defines a generic representation of the power-state
parameter. It depends on the platform port to convert the power-state parameter
(possibly encoding a composite power state) passed in a CPU_SUSPEND call to this
representation via the `validate_power_state()` plat_psci_ops handler. It is an
array where each index corresponds to a power level. Each entry contains the
local power state the power domain at that power level could enter.

The meaning of the local power state values is platform defined, and may vary
between levels in a single platform. The PSCI implementation constrains the
values only so that it can classify the state as RUN, RETENTION or OFF as
required by the specification:
   * zero means RUN
   * all OFF state values at all levels must be higher than all RETENTION
     state values at all levels
   * the platform provides PLAT_MAX_RET_STATE and PLAT_MAX_OFF_STATE values
     to the framework

The platform also must define the macros PLAT_MAX_RET_STATE and
PLAT_MAX_OFF_STATE which lets the PSCI implementation find out which power
domains have been requested to enter a retention or power down state. The PSCI
implementation does not interpret the local power states defined by the
platform. The only constraint is that the PLAT_MAX_RET_STATE <
PLAT_MAX_OFF_STATE.

For a power domain tree, the generic implementation maintains an array of local
power states. These are the states requested for each power domain by all the
cores contained within the domain. During a request to place multiple power
domains in a low power state, the platform is passed an array of requested
power-states for each power domain through the plat_get_target_pwr_state()
API. It coordinates amongst these states to determine a target local power
state for the power domain. A default weak implementation of this API is
provided in the platform layer which returns the minimum of the requested
power-states back to the PSCI state coordination.

Finally, the plat_psci_ops power management handlers are passed the target
local power states for each affected power domain using the generic
representation described above. The platform executes operations specific to
these target states.

The platform power management handler for placing a power domain in a standby
state (plat_pm_ops_t.pwr_domain_standby()) is now only used as a fast path for
placing a core power domain into a standby or retention state should now be
used to only place the core power domain in a standby or retention state.

The extended state-id power state format can be enabled by setting the
build flag PSCI_EXTENDED_STATE_ID=1 and it is disabled by default.

This patch removes the assumption in the current PSCI implementation that MPIDR
based affinity levels map directly to levels in a power domain tree. This
enables PSCI generic code to support complex power domain topologies as
envisaged by PSCIv1.0 specification. The platform interface for querying
the power domain topology has been changed such that:

1. The generic PSCI code does not generate MPIDRs and use them to query the
   platform about the number of power domains at a particular power level. The
   platform now provides a description of the power domain tree on the SoC
   through a data structure. The existing platform APIs to provide the same
   information have been removed.

2. The linear indices returned by plat_core_pos_by_mpidr() and
   plat_my_core_pos() are used to retrieve core power domain nodes from the
   power domain tree. Power domains above the core level are accessed using a
   'parent' field in the tree node descriptors.

The platform describes the power domain tree in an array of 'unsigned
char's. The first entry in the array specifies the number of power domains at
the highest power level implemented in the system. Each susbsequent entry
corresponds to a power domain and contains the number of power domains that are
its direct children. This array is exported to the generic PSCI implementation
via the new `plat_get_power_domain_tree_desc()` platform API.

The PSCI generic code uses this array to populate its internal power domain tree
using the Breadth First Search like algorithm. The tree is split into two
arrays:

1. An array that contains all the core power domain nodes

2. An array that contains all the other power domain nodes

A separate array for core nodes allows certain core specific optimisations to
be implemented e.g. remove the bakery lock, re-use per-cpu data framework for
storing some information.

Entries in the core power domain array are allocated such that the
array index of the domain is equal to the linear index returned by
plat_core_pos_by_mpidr() and plat_my_core_pos() for the MPIDR
corresponding to that domain. This relationship is key to be able to use
an MPIDR to find the corresponding core power domain node, traverse to higher
power domain nodes and index into arrays that contain core specific
information.

An introductory document has been added to briefly describe the new interface.

Change-Id: I4b444719e8e927ba391cae48a23558308447da13

This patch introduces new platform APIs and context management helper APIs
to support the new topology framework based on linear core position. This
framework will be introduced in the follwoing patch and it removes the
assumption that the MPIDR based affinity levels map directly to levels
in a power domain tree. The new platforms APIs and context management
helpers based on core position are as described below:

* plat_my_core_pos() and plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()

These 2 new mandatory platform APIs are meant to replace the existing
'platform_get_core_pos()' API. The 'plat_my_core_pos()' API returns the
linear index of the calling core and 'plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()' returns
the linear index of a core specified by its MPIDR. The latter API will also
validate the MPIDR passed as an argument and will return an error code (-1)
if an invalid MPIDR is passed as the argument. This enables the caller to
safely convert an MPIDR of another core to its linear index without querying
the PSCI topology tree e.g. during a call to PSCI CPU_ON.

Since the 'plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()' API verifies an MPIDR, which is always
platform specific, it is no longer possible to maintain a default implementation
of this API. Also it might not be possible for a platform port to verify an
MPIDR before the C runtime has been setup or the topology has been initialized.
This would prevent 'plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()' from being callable prior to
topology setup. As a result, the generic Trusted Firmware code does not call
this API before the topology setup has been done.

The 'plat_my_core_pos' API should be able to run without a C runtime.
Since this API needs to return a core position which is equal to the one
returned by 'plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()' API for the corresponding MPIDR,
this too cannot have default implementation and is a mandatory API for
platform ports. These APIs will be implemented by the ARM reference platform
ports later in the patch stack.

* plat_get_my_stack() and plat_set_my_stack()

These APIs are the stack management APIs which set/return stack addresses
appropriate for the calling core. These replace the 'platform_get_stack()' and
'platform_set_stack()' APIs. A default weak MP version and a global UP version
of these APIs are provided for the platforms.

* Context management helpers based on linear core position

A set of new context management(CM) helpers viz cm_get_context_by_index(),
cm_set_context_by_index(), cm_init_my_context() and cm_init_context_by_index()
are defined which are meant to replace the old helpers which took MPIDR
as argument. The old CM helpers are implemented based on the new helpers to
allow for code consolidation and will be deprecated once the switch to the new
framework is done.

As per Section 4.2.2. in the PSCI specification, the term "affinity"
is used in the context of describing the hierarchical arrangement
of cores. This often, but not always, maps directly to the processor
power domain topology of the system. The current PSCI implementation
assumes that this is always the case i.e. MPIDR based levels of
affinity always map to levels in a power domain topology tree.

This patch is the first in a series of patches which remove this
assumption. It removes all occurences of the terms "affinity
instances and levels" when used to describe the power domain
topology. Only the terminology is changed in this patch. Subsequent
patches will implement functional changes to remove the above
mentioned assumption.

This patch optimizes the invocation of the platform power management hooks for
ON, OFF and SUSPEND such that they are called only for the highest affinity
level which will be powered off/on. Earlier, the hooks were being invoked for
all the intermediate levels as well.

This patch requires that the platforms migrate to the new semantics of the PM
hooks.  It also removes the `state` parameter from the pm hooks as the `afflvl`
parameter now indicates the highest affinity level for which power management
operations are required.

This patch creates a copy of the existing PSCI files and related psci.h and
platform.h header files in a new `PSCI1.0` directory. The changes for the
new PSCI power domain topology and extended state-ID frameworks will be
added incrementally to these files. This incremental approach will
aid in review and in understanding the changes better. Once all the
changes have been introduced, these files will replace the existing PSCI
files.

All coding style violations have been fixed in a previous patch and

This patch implements conditional checks in psci_smc_handler() to verify
that the psci function invoked by the caller is supported by the platform
or SPD implementation. The level of support is saved in the 'psci_caps'
variable. This check allows the PSCI implementation to return an error
early.

As a result of the above verification, the checks performed within the psci
handlers for the pm hooks are now removed and replaced with assertions.

Change-Id: I9b5b646a01d8566dc28c4d77dd3aa54e9bf3981a

This patch adds support to return SUCCESS if a pending interrupt is
detected during a CPU_SUSPEND call to a power down state. The check
is performed as late as possible without losing the ability to return
to the caller. This reduces the overhead incurred by a CPU in
undergoing a complete power cycle when a wakeup interrupt is already
pending.

This patch allows the platform to validate the power_state and
entrypoint information from the normal world early on in PSCI
calls so that we can return the error safely. New optional
pm_ops hooks `validate_power_state` and `validate_ns_entrypoint`
are introduced to do this.

As a result of these changes, all the other pm_ops handlers except
the PSCI_ON handler are expected to be successful. Also, the PSCI
implementation will now assert if a PSCI API is invoked without the
corresponding pm_ops handler being registered by the platform.

NOTE : PLATFORM PORTS WILL BREAK ON MERGE OF THIS COMMIT. The
pm hooks have 2 additional optional callbacks and the return type
of the other hooks have changed.

This patch adds support to save the "power state" parameter before the
affinity level specific handlers are called in a CPU_SUSPEND call.
This avoids the need to pass the power_state as a parameter to the
handlers and Secure Payload Dispatcher (SPD) suspend spd_pm_ops.
The power_state arguments in the spd_pm_ops operations are now reserved
and must not be used. The SPD can query the relevant power_state fields
by using the psci_get_suspend_afflvl() & psci_get_suspend_stateid() APIs.

NOTE: THIS PATCH WILL BREAK THE SPD_PM_OPS INTERFACE. HENCE THE SECURE
PAYLOAD DISPATCHERS WILL NEED TO BE REWORKED TO USE THE NEW INTERFACE.

This patch replaces the internal psci_save_ns_entry() API with a
psci_get_ns_ep_info() API. The new function splits the work done by the
previous one such that it populates and returns an 'entry_point_info_t'
structure with the information to enter the normal world upon completion
of the CPU_SUSPEND or CPU_ON call. This information is used to populate
the non-secure context structure separately.

This allows the new internal API `psci_get_ns_ep_info` to return error
and enable the code to return safely.

This patch implements the following cleanups in PSCI generic code:

1. It reworks the affinity level specific handlers in the PSCI implementation
   such that.

   a. Usage of the 'rc' local variable is restricted to only where it is
      absolutely needed

   b. 'plat_state' local variable is defined only when a direct invocation of
      plat_get_phys_state() does not suffice.

   c. If a platform handler is not registered then the level specific handler
      returns early.

2. It limits the use of the mpidr_aff_map_nodes_t typedef to declaration of
   arrays of the type instead of using it in function prototypes as well.

3. It removes dangling declarations of __psci_cpu_off() and
   __psci_cpu_suspend(). The definitions of these functions were removed in
   earlier patches.

Change-Id: I51e851967c148be9c2eeda3a3c41878f7b4d6978

This patch adds APIs to find, save and retrieve the highest affinity level which
will enter or exit from the physical OFF state during a PSCI power management
operation. The level is stored in per-cpu data.

It then reworks the PSCI implementation to perform cache maintenance only
when the handler for the highest affinity level to enter/exit the OFF state is
called.

For example. during a CPU_SUSPEND operation, state management is done prior to
calling the affinity level specific handlers. The highest affinity level which
will be turned off is determined using the psci_find_max_phys_off_afflvl()
API. This level is saved using the psci_set_max_phys_off_afflvl() API. In the
code that does generic handling for each level, prior to performing cache
maintenance it is first determined if the current affinity level matches the
value returned by psci_get_max_phys_off_afflvl(). Cache maintenance is done if
the values match.

This change allows the last CPU in a cluster to perform cache maintenance
independently. Earlier, cache maintenance was started in the level 0 handler and
finished in the level 1 handler. This change in approach will facilitate
implementation of tf-issues#98.

Change-Id: I57233f0a27b3ddd6ddca6deb6a88b234525b0ae6

This patch pulls out state management from the affinity level specific handlers
into the top level functions specific to the operation
i.e. psci_afflvl_suspend(), psci_afflvl_on() etc.

In the power down path this patch will allow an affinity instance at level X to
determine the state that an affinity instance at level X+1 will enter before the
level specific handlers are called. This will be useful to determine whether a
CPU is the last in the cluster during a suspend/off request and so on.

Similarly, in the power up path this patch will allow an affinity instance at
level X to determine the state that an affinity instance at level X+1 has
emerged from, even after the level specific handlers have been called. This will
be useful in determining whether a CPU is the first in the cluster during a
on/resume request and so on.

As before, while powering down, state is updated before the level specific
handlers are invoked so that they can perform actions based upon their target
state. While powering up, state is updated after the level specific handlers have
been invoked so that they can perform actions based upon the state they emerged
from.

This patch adds a structure defined by the PSCI service to the per-CPU data
array. The structure is used to save the 'power_state' parameter specified
during a 'cpu_suspend' call on the current CPU. This parameter was being saved
in the cpu node in the PSCI topology tree earlier.

The existing API to return the state id specified during a PSCI CPU_SUSPEND call
i.e. psci_get_suspend_stateid(mpidr) has been renamed to
psci_get_suspend_stateid_by_mpidr(mpidr). The new psci_get_suspend_stateid() API
returns the state id of the current cpu.

The psci_get_suspend_afflvl() API has been changed to return the target affinity
level of the current CPU. This was specified using the 'mpidr' parameter in the
old implementation.

The behaviour of the get_power_on_target_afflvl() has been tweaked such that
traversal of the PSCI topology tree to locate the affinity instance node for the
current CPU is done only in the debug build as it is an expensive operation.

This patch further optimizes the EL3 register state stored in
cpu_context. The 2 registers which are removed from cpu_context are:

  * cntfrq_el0 is the system timer register which is writable
    only in EL3 and it can be programmed during cold/warm boot. Hence
    it need not be saved to cpu_context.

  * cptr_el3 controls access to Trace, Floating-point, and Advanced
    SIMD functionality and it is programmed every time during cold
    and warm boot. The current BL3-1 implementation does not need to
    modify the access controls during normal execution and hence
    they are expected to remain static.

This patch uses stacks allocated in normal memory to enable the MMU early in the
warm boot path thus removing the dependency on stacks allocated in coherent
memory. Necessary cache and stack maintenance is performed when a cpu is being
powered down and up. This avoids any coherency issues that can arise from
reading speculatively fetched stale stack memory from another CPUs cache. These
changes affect the warm boot path in both BL3-1 and BL3-2.

The EL3 system registers responsible for preserving the MMU state are not saved
and restored any longer. Static values are used to program these system
registers when a cpu is powered on or resumed from suspend.

Many of the interfaces internal to PSCI pass the current CPU

psci_suspend_context is an array of cache-line aligned structures

the only structure indexed by the aff_map_node.data integer.

This patch saves 2KB of BL3-1 memory by placing the CPU
power_state value directly in the aff_map_node structure. As a
result, this value is now never cached and the cache clean when
writing the value is no longer required.

Consolidate all BL3-1 CPU context initialization for cold boot, PSCI
and SPDs into two functions:
*  The first uses entry_point_info to initialize the relevant
   cpu_context for first entry into a lower exception level on a CPU
*  The second populates the EL1 and EL2 system registers as needed
   from the cpu_context to ensure correct entry into the lower EL

This patch alters the way that BL3-1 determines which exception level
is used when first entering EL1 or EL2 during cold boot - this is now
fully determined by the SPSR value in the entry_point_info for BL3-3,
as set up by the platform code in BL2 (or otherwise provided to BL3-1).

In the situation that EL1 (or svc mode) is selected for a processor
that supports EL2, the context management code will now configure all
essential EL2 register state to ensure correct execution of EL1. This
allows the platform code to run non-secure EL1 payloads directly
without requiring a small EL2 stub or OS loader.

function. Providing a specialised version for the current
CPU results in a reduction in code size and better readability.

The current function has been renamed to cm_get_context_by_mpidr()
and the existing name is now used for the current-CPU version.

The same treatment has been done to cm_set_context(), although
only both forms are used at present in the PSCI and TSPD code.

This patch implements the register reporting when unhandled exceptions are
taken in BL3-1. Unhandled exceptions will result in a dump of registers
to the console, before halting execution by that CPU. The Crash Stack,
previously called the Exception Stack, is used for this activity.
This stack is used to preserve the CPU context and runtime stack
contents for debugging and analysis.

This also introduces the per_cpu_ptr_cache, referenced by tpidr_el3,
to provide easy access to some of BL3-1 per-cpu data structures.
Initially, this is used to provide a pointer to the Crash stack.

panic() now prints the the error file and line number in Debug mode
and prints the PC value in release mode.

The Exception Stack is renamed to Crash Stack with this patch.
The original intention of exception stack is no longer valid
since we intend to support several valid exceptions like IRQ
and FIQ in the trusted firmware context. This stack is now
utilized for dumping and reporting the system state when a
crash happens and hence the rename.

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.

Reduce the number of header files included from other header
files as much as possible without splitting the files. Use forward
declarations where possible. This allows removal of some unnecessary
"#ifndef __ASSEMBLY__" statements.

Also, review the .c and .S files for which header files really need
including and reorder the #include statements alphabetically.

Add tag names to all unnamed structs in header files. This
allows forward declaration of structs, which is necessary to
reduce header file nesting (to be implemented in a subsequent
commit).

Also change the typedef names across the codebase to use the _t
suffix to be more conformant with the Linux coding style. The
coding style actually prefers us not to use typedefs at all but
this is considered a step too far for Trusted Firmware.

Also change the IO framework structs defintions to use typedef'd
structs to be consistent with the rest of the codebase.

Move the BL function prototypes out of arch.h and into the
appropriate header files to allow more efficient header file
inclusion. Create new BL private header files where there is no
sensible existing header file.

Make codebase consistent in its use of #include "" syntax for
user includes and #include <> syntax for system includes.

This patch saves the 'power_state' parameter prior to suspending
a cpu and invalidates it upon its resumption. The 'affinity level'
and 'state id' fields of this parameter can be read using a set of
public and private apis. Validation of power state parameter is
introduced which checks for SBZ bits are zero.
This change also takes care of flushing the parameter from the cache
to main memory. This ensures that it is available after cpu reset
when the caches and mmu are turned off. The earlier support for
saving only the 'affinity level' field of the 'power_state' parameter
has also been reworked.

Each ARM Trusted Firmware image should know in which EL it is running
and it should use the corresponding register directly instead of reading
currentEL and knowing which asm register to read/write
