      AArch64: Disable Secure Cycle Counter · e290a8fc
      Alexei Fedorov authored
      
      
      This patch fixes an issue when secure world timing information
      can be leaked because Secure Cycle Counter is not disabled.
      For ARMv8.5 the counter gets disabled by setting MDCR_El3.SCCD
      bit on CPU cold/warm boot.
      For the earlier architectures PMCR_EL0 register is saved/restored
      on secure world entry/exit from/to Non-secure state, and cycle
      counting gets disabled by setting PMCR_EL0.DP bit.
      'include\aarch64\arch.h' header file was tided up and new
      ARMv8.5-PMU related definitions were added.

      SSBS: init SPSR register with default SSBS value · c250cc3b
      John Tsichritzis authored
      
      
      This patch introduces an additional precautionary step to further
      enhance protection against variant 4. During the context initialisation
      before we enter the various BL stages, the SPSR.SSBS bit is explicitly
      set to zero. As such, speculative loads/stores are by default disabled
      for all BL stages when they start executing. Subsequently, each BL
      stage, can choose to enable speculative loads/stores or keep them
      disabled.
      
      This change doesn't affect the initial execution context of BL33 which
      is totally platform dependent and, thus, it is intentionally left up to
      each platform to initialise.
      
      For Arm platforms, SPSR.SSBS is set to zero for BL33 too. This means
      that, for Arm platforms, all BL stages start with speculative
      loads/stores disabled.

      Add support for Branch Target Identification · 9fc59639
      Alexei Fedorov authored
      
      
      This patch adds the functionality needed for platforms to provide
      Branch Target Identification (BTI) extension, introduced to AArch64
      in Armv8.5-A by adding BTI instruction used to mark valid targets
      for indirect branches. The patch sets new GP bit [50] to the stage 1
      Translation Table Block and Page entries to denote guarded EL3 code
      pages which will cause processor to trap instructions in protected
      pages trying to perform an indirect branch to any instruction other
      than BTI.
      BTI feature is selected by BRANCH_PROTECTION option which supersedes
      the previous ENABLE_PAUTH used for Armv8.3-A Pointer Authentication
      and is disabled by default. Enabling BTI requires compiler support
      and was tested with GCC versions 9.0.0, 9.0.1 and 10.0.0.
      The assembly macros and helpers are modified to accommodate the BTI
      instruction.
      This is an experimental feature.
      Note. The previous ENABLE_PAUTH build option to enable PAuth in EL3
      is now made as an internal flag and BRANCH_PROTECTION flag should be
      used instead to enable Pointer Authentication.
      Note. USE_LIBROM=1 option is currently not supported.

      This gives each Secure Partition complete freedom on its address space.
      Previously, the memory used by the exception vectors was reserved and
      couldn't be used. Also, it always had to be mapped, forcing SPM to
      generate translation tables that included the exception vectors as well
      as the Partition memory regions. With this change, partitions can reduce
      their address space size easily.

      Add ARMv8.3-PAuth registers to CPU context · 5283962e
      Antonio Nino Diaz authored
      
      
      ARMv8.3-PAuth adds functionality that supports address authentication of
      the contents of a register before that register is used as the target of
      an indirect branch, or as a load.
      
      This feature is supported only in AArch64 state.
      
      This feature is mandatory in ARMv8.3 implementations.
      
      This feature adds several registers to EL1. A new option called
      CTX_INCLUDE_PAUTH_REGS has been added to select if the TF needs to save
      them during Non-secure <-> Secure world switches. This option must be
      enabled if the hardware has the registers or the values will be leaked
      during world switches.
      
      To prevent leaks, this patch also disables pointer authentication in the
      Secure world if CTX_INCLUDE_PAUTH_REGS is 0. Any attempt to use it will
      be trapped in EL3.

      Disable processor Cycle Counting in Secure state · ed4fc6f0
      Antonio Nino Diaz authored
      
      
      In a system with ARMv8.5-PMU implemented:
      
      - If EL3 is using AArch32, setting MDCR_EL3.SCCD to 1 disables counting
        in Secure state in PMCCNTR.
      
      - If EL3 is using AArch64, setting SDCR.SCCD to 1 disables counting in
        Secure state in PMCCNTR_EL0.
      
      So far this effect has been achieved by setting PMCR_EL0.DP (in AArch64)
      or PMCR.DP (in AArch32) to 1 instead, but this isn't considered secure
      as any EL can change that value.

      ARMv8.4-TTST (Small Translation tables) relaxes the lower limit on the
      size of translation tables by increasing the maximum permitted value

      VSTCR_EL2.
      
      This feature is supported in AArch64 state only.
      
      This patch adds support for this feature to both versions of the
      translation tables library. It also removes the static build time
      checks for virtual address space size checks to runtime assertions.

      Sanitise includes across codebase · 09d40e0e
      Antonio Nino Diaz authored
      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.

      AArch64: Use SSBS for CVE_2018_3639 mitigation · 48e1d350
      Jeenu Viswambharan authored
      
      
      The Armv8.5 extensions introduces PSTATE.SSBS (Speculation Store Bypass
      Safe) bit to mitigate against Variant 4 vulnerabilities. Although an
      Armv8.5 feature, this can be implemented by CPUs implementing earlier
      version of the architecture.
      
      With this patch, when both PSTATE.SSBS is implemented and
      DYNAMIC_WORKAROUND_CVE_2018_3639 is active, querying for
      SMCCC_ARCH_WORKAROUND_2 via. SMCCC_ARCH_FEATURES call would return 1 to
      indicate that mitigation on the PE is either permanently enabled or not
      required.
      
      When SSBS is implemented, SCTLR_EL3.DSSBS is initialized to 0 at reset
      of every BL stage. This means that EL3 always executes with mitigation
      applied.
      
      For Cortex A76, if the PE implements SSBS, the existing mitigation (by
      using a different vector table, and tweaking CPU ACTLR2) is not used.

      AArch64: Enable lower ELs to use pointer authentication · 3ff4aaac
      Jeenu Viswambharan authored
      
      
      Pointer authentication is an Armv8.3 feature that introduces
      instructions that can be used to authenticate and verify pointers.
      
      Pointer authentication instructions are allowed to be accessed from all
      ELs but only when EL3 explicitly allows for it; otherwise, their usage
      will trap to EL3. Since EL3 doesn't have trap handling in place, this
      patch unconditionally disables all related traps to EL3 to avoid
      potential misconfiguration leading to an unhandled EL3 exception.

      Memory Partitioning And Monitoring is an Armv8.4 feature that enables
      various memory system components and resources to define partitions.
      Software running at various ELs can then assign themselves to the
      desired partition to control their performance aspects.
      
      With this patch, when ENABLE_MPAM_FOR_LOWER_ELS is set to 1, EL3 allows
      lower ELs to access their own MPAM registers without trapping to EL3.
      This patch however doesn't make use of partitioning in EL3; platform
      initialisation code should configure and use partitions in EL3 if
      required.

      Fix types of arch.h definitions · 30399885
      Antonio Nino Diaz authored
      
      
      Define the values as unsigned int or unsigned long long based on the
      actual size of the register. This prevents subtle issues caused by
      having a type that is too small. For example:
      
          #define OPTION_ENABLE 0x3
          #define OPTION_SHIFT  32
      
          uint64_t mask = OPTION_ENABLE << OPTION_SHIFT;
      
      Because OPTION_ENABLE fits in an int, the value is considered an int.
      This means that, after shifting it 32 places to the left, the final
      result is 0. The correct way to define the values is:
      
          #define OPTION_ENABLE ULL(0x3)
          #define OPTION_SHIFT  U(32)
      
      In this case, the compiler is forced to use a 64 bit value from the
      start, so shifting it 32 places to the left results in the expected
      value.

      ARM Platforms: Update CNTFRQ register in CNTCTLBase frame · 342d6220
      Soby Mathew authored
      
      
      Currently TF-A doesn't initialise CNTFRQ register in CNTCTLBase
      frame of the system timer. ARM ARM states that "The instance of
      the register in the CNTCTLBase frame must be programmed with this
      value as part of system initialization."
      
      The psci_arch_setup() updates the CNTFRQ system register but
      according to the ARM ARM, this instance of the register is
      independent of the memory mapped instance. This is only an issue
      for Normal world software which relies on the memory mapped
      instance rather than the system register one.
      
      This patch resolves the issue for ARM platforms.
      
      The patch also solves a related issue on Juno, wherein
      CNTBaseN.CNTFRQ can be written and does not reflect the value of
      the register in CNTCTLBase frame. Hence this patch additionally
      updates CNTFRQ register in the Non Secure frame of the CNTBaseN.

      this.
      
      With RAS_EXTENSION, an Exception Synchronization Barrier (ESB) is
      inserted at all EL3 vector entry and exit. ESBs will synchronize pending
      external aborts before entering EL3, and therefore will contain and
      attribute errors to lower EL execution. Any errors thus synchronized are
      detected via. DISR_EL1 register.
      
      When RAS_EXTENSION is set to 1, HANDLE_EL3_EA_FIRST must also be set to 1.

      AArch64: Introduce External Abort handling · 76454abf
      Jeenu Viswambharan authored
      
      
      At present, any External Abort routed to EL3 is reported as an unhandled
      exception and cause a panic. This patch enables ARM Trusted Firmware to
      handle External Aborts routed to EL3.
      
      With this patch, when an External Abort is received at EL3, its handling
      is delegated to plat_ea_handler() function. Platforms can provide their
      own implementation of this function. This patch adds a weak definition
      of the said function that prints out a message and just panics.
      
      In order to support handling External Aborts at EL3, the build option
      HANDLE_EA_EL3_FIRST must be set to 1.
      
      Before this patch, HANDLE_EA_EL3_FIRST wasn't passed down to
      compilation; this patch fixes that too.

      Use PFR0 to identify need for mitigation of CVE-2017-5915 · 780edd86
      Dimitris Papastamos authored
      
      
      If the CSV2 field reads as 1 then branch targets trained in one
      context cannot affect speculative execution in a different context.
      In that case skip the workaround on Cortex A75.

      Workaround for CVE-2017-5715 on Cortex A73 and A75 · a1781a21
      Dimitris Papastamos authored
      
      
      Invalidate the Branch Target Buffer (BTB) on entry to EL3 by
      temporarily dropping into AArch32 Secure-EL1 and executing the
      `BPIALL` instruction.
      
      This is achieved by using 3 vector tables.  There is the runtime
      vector table which is used to handle exceptions and 2 additional
      tables which are required to implement this workaround.  The
      additional tables are `vbar0` and `vbar1`.
      
      The sequence of events for handling a single exception is
      as follows:
      
      1) Install vector table `vbar0` which saves the CPU context on entry
         to EL3 and sets up the Secure-EL1 context to execute in AArch32 mode
         with the MMU disabled and I$ enabled.  This is the default vector table.
      
      2) Before doing an ERET into Secure-EL1, switch vbar to point to
         another vector table `vbar1`.  This is required to restore EL3 state
         when returning from the workaround, before proceeding with normal EL3
         exception handling.
      
      3) While in Secure-EL1, the `BPIALL` instruction is executed and an
         SMC call back to EL3 is performed.
      
      4) On entry to EL3 from Secure-EL1, the saved context from step 1) is
         restored.  The vbar is switched to point to `vbar0` in preparation to
         handle further exceptions.  Finally a branch to the runtime vector
         table entry is taken to complete the handling of the original
         exception.
      
      This workaround is enabled by default on the affected CPUs.
      
      NOTE
      ====
      
      There are 4 different stubs in Secure-EL1.  Each stub corresponds to
      an exception type such as Sync/IRQ/FIQ/SError.  Each stub will move a
      different value in `R0` before doing an SMC call back into EL3.
      Without this piece of information it would not be possible to know
      what the original exception type was as we cannot use `ESR_EL3` to
      distinguish between IRQs and FIQs.

      Enable SVE for Non-secure world · 1a853370
      David Cunado authored
      
      
      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.
