The communication protocol used between the AP cores and the SCP
in CSS-based platforms like Juno has undergone a number of changes.
This patch makes the required modifications to the SCP Boot Protocol,
SCPI Protocol and MHU driver code in shared CSS platform code so that
the AP cores are still able to communicate with the SCP.

This patch focuses on the mandatory changes to make it work. The
design of this code needs to be improved but this will come in
a subsequent patch.

The main changes are:

 - MHU communication protocol

   - The command ID and payload size are no longer written into the
     MHU registers directly. Instead, they are stored in the payload
     area. The MHU registers are now used only as a doorbell to kick
     off messages. Same goes for any command result, the AP has to
     pick it up from the payload area.

 - SCP Boot Protocol

   - The BL3-0 image is now expected to embed a checksum. This
     checksum must be passed to the SCP, which uses it to check the
     integrity of the image it received.

   - The BL3-0 image used to be transferred a block (4KB)
     at a time. The SCP now supports receiving up to 128KB at a
     time, which is more than the size of the BL3-0 image.
     Therefore, the image is now sent in one go.

   - The command IDs have changed.

 - SCPI Protocol

   - The size of the SCPI payload has been reduced down from 512
     bytes to 256 bytes. This changes the base address of the
     AP-to-SCP payload area.

   - For commands that have a response, the response is the same SCPI
     header that was sent, except for the size and the status, which
     both must be updated appropriately. Success/Failure of a command
     is determined by looking at the updated status code.

   - Some command IDs have changed.

NOTE: THIS PATCH BREAKS COMPATIBILITY WITH FORMER VERSIONS OF THE SCP
FIRMWARE AND THUS REQUIRES AN UPDATE OF THIS BINARY. THE LATEST SCP
BINARY CAN BE OBTAINED FROM THE ARM CONNECTED COMMUNITY WEBSITE.

Major update to the Juno platform port to use the common platform code
in (include/)plat/arm/* and (include/)plat/common/*. This mainly
consists of removing duplicated code but also introduces some small
behavioural changes where there was unnecessary variation between the
FVP and Juno ports. See earlier commit titled `Add common ARM and CSS
platform code` for details.

Also move the ARM SoC specific security setup (i.e. NIC-400 and PCIe
initialization) from BL1 to `plat_arm_security_setup()` in BL2,
where the other security setup is done.

consists of removing duplicated code but also introduces some small
behavioural changes where there was unnecessary variation between the
FVP and Juno ports. See earlier commit titled `Add common ARM and CSS

Also add support for Foundation FVP version 9.1 during FVP config
setup to prevent a warning being emitted in the console.

This major change pulls out the common functionality from the
FVP and Juno platform ports into the following categories:

*   (include/)plat/common. Common platform porting functionality that
typically may be used by all platforms.

*   (include/)plat/arm/common. Common platform porting functionality
that may be used by all ARM standard platforms. This includes all
ARM development platforms like FVP and Juno but may also include
non-ARM-owned platforms.

*   (include/)plat/arm/board/common. Common platform porting
functionality for ARM development platforms at the board
(off SoC) level.

*   (include/)plat/arm/css/common. Common platform porting
functionality at the ARM Compute SubSystem (CSS) level. Juno
is an example of a CSS-based platform.

*   (include/)plat/arm/soc/common. Common platform porting
functionality at the ARM SoC level, which is not already defined
at the ARM CSS level.

No guarantees are made about the backward compatibility of
functionality provided in (include/)plat/arm.

Also remove any unnecessary variation between the ARM development
platform ports, including:

*   Unify the way BL2 passes `bl31_params_t` to BL3-1. Use the
Juno implementation, which copies the information from BL2 memory
instead of expecting it to persist in shared memory.

*   Unify the TZC configuration. There is no need to add a region
for SCP in Juno; it's enough to simply not allow any access to
this reserved region. Also set region 0 to provide no access by
default instead of assuming this is the case.

*   Unify the number of memory map regions required for ARM
development platforms, although the actual ranges mapped for each
platform may be different. For the FVP port, this reduces the
mapped peripheral address space.

These latter changes will only be observed when the platform ports
are migrated to use the new common platform code in subsequent
patches.

Add extern declarations of linker symbols to bl_common.h. These are
used by platform ports to determine the memory layout of BL images.
Adding the declarations to this file facilitates removal of these
declarations from the platform porting source files in subsequent
patches.

Also remove the linker symbol declarations from common TSP source
code.

Update the top level makefile to allow platform ports to exist in
subdirectories at any level instead of one level under `plat/`. The
makefile recursively searches for all files called `platform.mk` in
all subdirectories of `plat/`. The directory containing
`platform.mk` is the platform name. Platform names must be unique
across the codebase.

Replace usage of HELP_PLATFORMS in the Makefile with PLATFORMS since
these are both used to report the same information back to the user.

Update the TSP and cert_create tool makefiles in a similar way
to support a deeper platform port directory structure.

Also add PLAT_<plat_name> as a define passed through the top level
makefile to the source files, to allow build time variation in common
platform code.

Change-Id: I213420164808c5ddb99a26144e8e3f141a7417b7

Separate out the common console functionality in
`drivers/arm/pl011/pl011_console.S` into a new source file
`drivers/console/console.S`. The former includes the latter to
provide backwards compatibility for platform make files.

Also add a skeleton console implementation for platforms that do not
want to use PL011.

Some assembly files containing macros are included like header files
into other assembly files. This will cause assembler errors if they
are included multiple times.

Add header guards to assembly macro files to avoid assembler errors.

The required platform constant PLATFORM_CACHE_LINE_SIZE is
unnecessary since CACHE_WRITEBACK_GRANULE effectively provides the
same information. CACHE_WRITEBACK_GRANULE is preferred since this
is an architecturally defined term and allows comparison with the
corresponding hardware register value.

Replace all usage of PLATFORM_CACHE_LINE_SIZE with
CACHE_WRITEBACK_GRANULE.

Also, add a runtime assert in BL1 to check that the provided
CACHE_WRITEBACK_GRANULE matches the value provided in CTR_EL0.

at that time.

Fix the type mismatches in the verbose logging statements.

Region 0 is special in TZC-400. It is possible to set the access
permissions for this but not the address range or filters to which
the permissions apply. Add a function for setting the region 0
access permissions.

Also add some VERBOSE logging and allow assembly files to include
the TZC header.

Pass arguments/results between EL3/S-EL1 via CPU registers (x0-x7) v4

Remove the ARCH build configuration from the Makefile v2

Panic if platform specific BL3-0 handling fails v2

This patch removes the need for a shared buffer between the EL3 and S-EL1
levels. We now use the CPU registers, x0-x7, while passing data between
the two levels. Since TLK is a 32-bit Trusted OS, tlkd has to unpack the
arguments in the x0-x7 registers. TLK in turn gets these values via r0-r7.

The ARCH variable, which defaults to 'aarch64', gives the wrong
impression that the Trusted Firmware can be built for other
architectures. This patch removes it. This doesn't have any
consequence on the rest of the build system because the variable
was unused.

The return value of bl2_plat_handle_bl30() used to be ignored.
This patch modifies the function load_bl30() so that it now
checks this return value and returns it to bl2_main().

This patch also unifies the error handling code across the
load_blx() functions so that they return a status code in all
cases and bl2_main() has the sole responsibility of panicking
if appropriate.

Add support to indicate size and end of assembly functions

In order for the symbol table in the ELF file to contain the size of
functions written in assembly, it is necessary to report it to the
assembler using the .size directive.

To fulfil the above requirements, this patch introduces an 'endfunc'
macro which contains the .endfunc and .size directives. It also adds
a .func directive to the 'func' assembler macro.

The .func/.endfunc have been used so the assembler can fail if
endfunc is omitted.

This patch registers NS memory buffer with the secure payload using
two different functions IDs - REGISTER_LOGBUF, REGISTER_REQBUF.

a. The SP uses the log-buffer to store its activity logs, in a
pre-decided format. This helps in debugging secure payload's issues.
b. The SP uses the req-buffer to get the parameters required by
sessions with Trusted Applications.

This patch removes the `owner` field in bakery_lock_t structure which
is the data structure used in the bakery lock implementation that uses
coherent memory. The assertions to protect against recursive lock
acquisition were based on the 'owner' field. They are now done based
on the bakery lock ticket number. These assertions are also added
to the bakery lock implementation that uses normal memory as well.

Change-Id: If4850a00dffd3977e218c0f0a8d145808f36b470

This patch optimizes the data structure used with the bakery lock
implementation for coherent memory to save memory and minimize memory
accesses. These optimizations were already part of the bakery lock
implementation for normal memory and this patch now implements
it for the coherent memory implementation as well. Also
included in the patch is a cleanup to use the do-while loop while
waiting for other contenders to finish choosing their tickets.

Add support for Juno r1 in the platform reset handler

Set group status of PPIs and SGIs correctly on GICv3 systems

For Juno r0, the platform reset handler needs to:
 - Implement the workaround for defect #831273
 - Increase the L2 Data and Tag RAM latencies for Cortex-A57.

Defect #831273 does not affect Juno r1. Also, the default value
for the L2 Tag RAM latency for Cortex-A57 is suitable on Juno r1.
The L2 Data RAM latency for Cortex-A57 still needs to be
increased, though.

This patch modifies the Juno platform reset handler to detect
the board revision and skip the unnecessary steps on Juno r1.
The behaviour on Juno r0 is unchanged.

Change-Id: I27542917223e680ef923ee860900806ffcd0357b

On a GICv2 system, the group status of PPIs and SGIs is set in the GICD_IGROUPR0
register. On a GICv3 system, if affinity routing is enabled for the non-secure
state, then the group status of PPIs and SGIs should be set in the GICR_IGROUPR0
register. ARM Trusted firmware sets the group status using the GICv2
sequence. On a GICv3 system, if the group status of an interrupt is set to Group
1 through a write to the GICD_IGROUPR0, then the GICR_IGROUPR0 is updated as
well.

The current sequence is incorrect since it first marks all PPIs and SGIs as
Group 1. It then clears the bits in GICD_IGROUPR0 corresponding to secure
interrupts to set their group status to Group 0. This operation is a no-op. It
leaves the secure generic timer interrupt (#29) used by the TSP marked as Group
1. This causes the interrupt to interfere with the execution of non-secure
software. Once an interrupt has been marked as Group 1, the GICR_IGROUPR0 should
be programmed to change its group status.

This patch rectifies this issue by setting the group status of only the
non-secure PPI and SGIs to Group 1 in the first place. GICD_IGROUPR0 resets to
0. So secure interrupts are marked as Group 0 by default.
