Add 'lr_svc' as a boot parameter in AArch32 bl1. This is used by Optee and Trusty to get the non-secure entry point on AArch32 platforms. This change is not ported in AArch64 mode where the BL31, not BL32, is in charge of booting the non secure image (BL33). Signed-off-by: Etienne Carriere <etienne.carriere@linaro.org>

These APIs are used by platforms that need to decompress images. image_decompress_init(): This registers a temporary buffer and a decompressor callback. This should be called from platform init code. image_decompress_prepare(): This should be called before each compressed image is loaded. The best location to call this will be bl*_plat_handle_pre_image_load(). image_decompress(): This should be called after each compressed image is loaded. The best location to call this will be bl*_plat_handle_post_image_load(). Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

This patch introduces two workarounds for ARMv7 systems. The workarounds need to be applied prior to any `branch` instruction in secure world. This is achieved using a custom vector table where each entry is an `add sp, sp, #1` instruction. On entry to monitor mode, once the sequence of `ADD` instructions is executed, the branch target buffer (BTB) is invalidated. The bottom bits of `SP` are then used to decode the exception entry type. A side effect of this change is that the exception vectors are installed before the CPU specific reset function. This is now consistent with how it is done on AArch64. Note, on AArch32 systems, the exception vectors are typically tightly integrated with the secure payload (e.g. the Trusted OS). This workaround will need porting to each secure payload that requires it. The patch to modify the AArch32 per-cpu vbar to the corresponding workaround vector table according to the CPU type will be done in a later patch.

This patch enables BL2 to execute at the highest exception level without any dependancy on TF BL1. This enables platforms which already have a non-TF Boot ROM to directly load and execute BL2 and subsequent BL stages without need for BL1. This is not currently possible because BL2 executes at S-EL1 and cannot jump straight to EL3.

Invalidate the Branch Target Buffer (BTB) on entry to EL3 by disabling and enabling the MMU. To achieve this without performing any branch instruction, a per-cpu vbar is installed which executes the workaround and then branches off to the corresponding vector entry in the main vector table. A side effect of this change is that the main vbar is configured before any reset handling. This is to allow the per-cpu reset function to override the vbar setting. This workaround is enabled by default on the affected CPUs. Change-Id: I97788d38463a5840a410e3cea85ed297a1678265 Signed-off-by: Dimitris Papastamos <dimitris.papastamos@arm.com>

This patch overhauls the console API to allow for multiple console instances of different drivers that are active at the same time. Instead of binding to well-known function names (like console_core_init), consoles now provide a register function (e.g. console_16550_register()) that will hook them into the list of active consoles. All console operations will be dispatched to all consoles currently in the list. The new API will be selected by the build-time option MULTI_CONSOLE_API, which defaults to ${ERROR_DEPRECATED} for now. The old console API code will be retained to stay backwards-compatible to older platforms, but should no longer be used for any newly added platforms and can hopefully be removed at some point in the future. The new console API is intended to be used for both normal (bootup) and crash use cases, freeing platforms of the need to set up the crash console separately. Consoles can be individually configured to be active active at boot (until first handoff to EL2), at runtime (after first handoff to EL2), and/or after a crash. Console drivers should set a sane default upon registration that can be overridden with the console_set_scope() call. Code to hook up the crash reporting mechanism to this framework will be added with a later patch. This patch only affects AArch64, but the new API could easily be ported to AArch32 as well if desired.

This patch adds a new build option, ENABLE_SVE_FOR_NS, which when set to one EL3 will check to see if the Scalable Vector Extension (SVE) is implemented when entering and exiting the Non-secure world. If SVE is implemented, EL3 will do the following: - Entry to Non-secure world: SIMD, FP and SVE functionality is enabled. - Exit from Non-secure world: SIMD, FP and SVE functionality is disabled. As SIMD and FP registers are part of the SVE Z-registers then any use of SIMD / FP functionality would corrupt the SVE registers. The build option default is 1. The SVE functionality is only supported on AArch64 and so the build option is set to zero when the target archiecture is AArch32. This build option is not compatible with the CTX_INCLUDE_FPREGS - an assert will be raised on platforms where SVE is implemented and both ENABLE_SVE_FOR_NS and CTX_INCLUDE_FPREGS are set to 1. Also note this change prevents secure world use of FP&SIMD registers on SVE-enabled platforms. Existing Secure-EL1 Payloads will not work on such platforms unless ENABLE_SVE_FOR_NS is set to 0. Additionally, on the first entry into the Non-secure world the SVE functionality is enabled and the SVE Z-register length is set to the maximum size allowed by the architecture. This includes the use case where EL2 is implemented but not used. Change-Id: Ie2d733ddaba0b9bef1d7c9765503155188fe7dae Signed-off-by: David Cunado <david.cunado@arm.com>

Factor out SPE operations in a separate file. Use the publish subscribe framework to drain the SPE buffers before entering secure world. Additionally, enable SPE before entering normal world. A side effect of this change is that the profiling buffers are now only drained when a transition from normal world to secure world happens. Previously they were drained also on return from secure world, which is unnecessary as SPE is not supported in S-EL1.

A Secure Partition is a software execution environment instantiated in S-EL0 that can be used to implement simple management and security services. Since S-EL0 is an unprivileged exception level, a Secure Partition relies on privileged firmware e.g. ARM Trusted Firmware to be granted access to system and processor resources. Essentially, it is a software sandbox that runs under the control of privileged software in the Secure World and accesses the following system resources: - Memory and device regions in the system address map. - PE system registers. - A range of asynchronous exceptions e.g. interrupts. - A range of synchronous exceptions e.g. SMC function identifiers. A Secure Partition enables privileged firmware to implement only the absolutely essential secure services in EL3 and instantiate the rest in a partition. Since the partition executes in S-EL0, its implementation cannot be overly complex. The component in ARM Trusted Firmware responsible for managing a Secure Partition is called the Secure Partition Manager (SPM). The SPM is responsible for the following: - Validating and allocating resources requested by a Secure Partition. - Implementing a well defined interface that is used for initialising a Secure Partition. - Implementing a well defined interface that is used by the normal world and other secure services for accessing the services exported by a Secure Partition. - Implementing a well defined interface that is used by a Secure Partition to fulfil service requests. - Instantiating the software execution environment required by a Secure Partition to fulfil a service request.

The GIC driver initialization currently allows an array of interrupts to be configured as secure. Future use cases would require more interrupt configuration other than just security, such as priority. This patch introduces a new interrupt property array as part of both GICv2 and GICv3 driver data. The platform can populate the array with interrupt numbers and respective properties. The corresponding driver initialization iterates through the array, and applies interrupt configuration as required. This capability, and the current way of supplying array (or arrays, in case of GICv3) of secure interrupts, are however mutually exclusive. Henceforth, the platform should supply either: - A list of interrupts to be mapped as secure (the current way). Platforms that do this will continue working as they were. With this patch, this scheme is deprecated. - A list of interrupt properties (properties include interrupt group). Individual interrupt properties are specified via. descriptors of type 'interrupt_prop_desc_t', which can be populated with the macro INTR_PROP_DESC(). A run time assert checks that the platform doesn't specify both. Henceforth the old scheme of providing list of secure interrupts is deprecated. When built with ERROR_DEPRECATED=1, GIC drivers will require that the interrupt properties are supplied instead of an array of secure interrupts. Add a section to firmware design about configuring secure interrupts.

This patch gives users control over logging messages printed from the C code using the LOG macros defined in debug.h Users now have the ability to reduce the log_level at run time using the tf_log_set_max_level() function. The default prefix string can be defined by platform by overriding the `plat_log_get_prefix()` platform API which is also introduced in this patch. The new log framework results in saving of some RO data. For example, when BL1 is built for FVP with LOG_LEVEL=LOG_LEVEL_VERBOSE, resulted in saving 384 bytes of RO data and increase of 8 bytes of RW data. The framework also adds about 108 bytes of code to the release build of FVP.

Add Call Frame Information assembler directives to vector entries so that debuggers display the backtrace of functions that triggered a synchronous exception. For example, a function triggering a data abort will be easier to debug if the backtrace can be displayed from a breakpoint at the beginning of the synchronous exception vector. DS-5 needs CFI otherwise it will not attempt to display the backtrace. Other debuggers might have other needs. These debug information are stored in the ELF file but not in the final binary.

Assembly routines are usually defined by using "func" and "endfunc": func foo ... endfunc foo Currently, the "func" macro does not specify ".align" directive by default. It causes unaligned instruction under some circumstances. As far as I tested, this problem happens for GCC 5 or older. It did not happen for GCC 6 or newer. Taking into account that GCC 4.x / 5.x is still used, make sure that assembly code is at least 4 byte aligned. [ How to reproduce the problem ] For example, use GCC 5.3 downloaded from Linaro: http://releases.linaro.org/components/toolchain/binaries/5.3-2016.05/ aarch64-linux-gnu/gcc-linaro-5.3.1-2016.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu.tar.xz Expand mbedtls-2.4.2 to the current directory.

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.

This patch updates the el3_arch_init_common macro so that it fully initialises essential control registers rather then relying on hardware to set the reset values. The context management functions are also updated to fully initialise the appropriate control registers when initialising the non-secure and secure context structures and when preparing to leave EL3 for a lower EL. This gives better alignement with the ARM ARM which states that software must initialise RES0 and RES1 fields with 0 / 1.

Some header files need to be shared between TF and host programs. For fiptool, two headers are copied to the tools/fiptool directory, but it looks clumsy. This commit introduces a new directory, include/tools_share, which collects headers that should be shared between TF and host programs. This will clarify the interface exposed to host tools. We should add new headers to this directory only when we really need to do so. For clarification, I inserted a blank line between headers from the include/ directory (#include <...>) and ones from a local directory (#include "..." ).

Introduce new build option ENABLE_STACK_PROTECTOR. It enables compilation of all BL images with one of the GCC -fstack-protector-* options. A new platform function plat_get_stack_protector_canary() is introduced. It returns a value that is used to initialize the canary for stack corruption detection. Returning a random value will prevent an attacker from predicting the value and greatly increase the effectiveness of the protection. A message is printed at the ERROR level when a stack corruption is detected. To be effective, the global data must be stored at an address lower than the base of the stacks. Failure to do so would allow an attacker to overwrite the canary as part of an attack which would void the protection. FVP implementation of plat_get_stack_protector_canary is weak as there is no real source of entropy on the FVP. It therefore relies on a timer's value, which could be predictable.

Introduce zeromem_dczva function on AArch64 that can handle unaligned addresses and make use of DC ZVA instruction to zero a whole block at a time. This zeroing takes place directly in the cache to speed it up without doing external memory access. Remove the zeromem16 function on AArch64 and replace it with an alias to zeromem. This zeromem16 function is now deprecated. Remove the 16-bytes alignment constraint on __BSS_START__ in firmware-design.md as it is now not mandatory anymore (it used to comply with zeromem16 requirements). Change the 16-bytes alignment constraints in SP min's linker script to a 8-bytes alignment constraint as the AArch32 zeromem implementation is now more efficient on 8-bytes aligned addresses. Introduce zero_normalmem and zeromem helpers in platform agnostic header that are implemented this way: * AArch32: * zero_normalmem: zero using usual data access * zeromem: alias for zero_normalmem * AArch64: * zero_normalmem: zero normal memory using DC ZVA instruction (needs MMU enabled) * zeromem: zero using usual data access Usage guidelines: in most cases, zero_normalmem should be preferred. There are 2 scenarios where zeromem (or memset) must be used instead: * Code that must run with MMU disabled (which means all memory is considered device memory for data accesses). * Code that fills device memory with null bytes. Optionally, the following rule can be applied if performance is important: * Code zeroing small areas (few bytes) that are not secrets should use memset to take advantage of compiler optimizations. Note: Code zeroing security-related critical information should use zero_normalmem/zeromem instead of memset to avoid removal by compilers' optimizations in some cases or misbehaving versions of GCC.

At present, spin locks can only defined from C files. Add some macros such that they can be defined from assembly files too. Change-Id: I64f0c214062f5c15b3c8b412c7f25c908e87d970 Signed-off-by: Jeenu Viswambharan <jeenu.viswambharan@arm.com>

One nasty part of ATF is some of boolean macros are always defined as 1 or 0, and the rest of them are only defined under certain conditions. For the former group, "#if FOO" or "#if !FOO" must be used because "#ifdef FOO" is always true. (Options passed by $(call add_define,) are the cases.) For the latter, "#ifdef FOO" or "#ifndef FOO" should be used because checking the value of an undefined macro is strange. Here, IMAGE_BL* is handled by make_helpers/build_macro.mk like follows: $(eval IMAGE := IMAGE_BL$(call uppercase,$(3))) $(OBJ): $(2) @echo " CC $$<" $$(Q)$$(CC) $$(TF_CFLAGS) $$(CFLAGS) -D$(IMAGE) -c $$< -o $$@ This means, IMAGE_BL* is defined when building the corresponding image, but *undefined* for the other images. So, IMAGE_BL* belongs to the latter group where we should use #ifdef or #ifndef. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

The is_mem_free() function used to be local to bl_common.c. This patch exports it so that it can be used outside of bl_common.c. Change-Id: I01dcb4229f3a36f56a4724b567c5e6c416dc5e98 Signed-off-by: Sandrine Bailleux <sandrine.bailleux@arm.com>

ASM_ASSERT failure and panic messages are suppressed at present. This patch enables printing the PC location for panic messages, and file name and line number upon assembly assert failure.

There are many instances in ARM Trusted Firmware where control is transferred to functions from which return isn't expected. Such jumps are made using 'bl' instruction to provide the callee with the location from which it was jumped to. Additionally, debuggers infer the caller by examining where 'lr' register points to. If a 'bl' of the nature described above falls at the end of an assembly function, 'lr' will be left pointing to a location outside of the function range. This misleads the debugger back trace. This patch defines a 'no_ret' macro to be used when jumping to functions from which return isn't expected. The macro ensures to use 'bl' instruction for the jump, and also, for debug builds, places a 'nop' instruction immediately thereafter (unless instructed otherwise) so as to leave 'lr' pointing within the function range.
