      Initialise CPU contexts from entry_point_info · 167a9357
      Andrew Thoelke authored
      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.

      Move BL porting functions into platform.h · dec5e0d1
      Dan Handley authored
      Some platform porting functions were in BL specific header files.
      These have been moved to platform.h so that all porting functions
      are in the same place. The functions are now grouped by BL.
      Obsolete BL headers files have been removed.
      
      Also, the weak declaration of the init_bl2_mem_layout() function
      has been moved out the header file and into the source file
      (bl_common.c) using the more succinct #pragma syntax. This
      mitigates the risk of 2 weak definitions being created and the
      wrong one being picked up by the compiler.

      Split platform.h into separate headers · 5f0cdb05
      Dan Handley authored
      Previously, platform.h contained many declarations and definitions
      used for different purposes. This file has been split so that:
      
      * Platform definitions used by common code that must be defined
        by the platform are now in platform_def.h. The exact include
        path is exported through $PLAT_INCLUDES in the platform makefile.
      
      * Platform definitions specific to the FVP platform are now in
        /plat/fvp/fvp_def.h.
      
      * Platform API declarations specific to the FVP platform are now
        in /plat/fvp/fvp_private.h.
      
      * The remaining platform API declarations that must be ported by
        each platform are still in platform.h but this file has been
        moved to /include/plat/common since this can be shared by all
        platforms.

      Make the memory layout more flexible · a37255a2
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      Currently the platform code gets to define the base address of each
      boot loader image. However, the linker scripts couteract this
      flexibility by enforcing a fixed overall layout of the different
      images. For example, they require that the BL3-1 image sits below
      the BL2 image. Choosing BL3-1 and BL2 base addresses in such a way
      that it violates this constraint makes the build fail at link-time.
      
      This patch requires the platform code to now define a limit address
      for each image. The linker scripts check that the image fits within
      these bounds so they don't rely anymore on the position of a given
      image in regard to the others.

      Add support for BL3-1 as a reset vector · dbad1bac
      Vikram Kanigiri authored
      This change adds optional reset vector support to BL3-1
      which means BL3-1 entry point can detect cold/warm boot,
      initialise primary cpu, set up cci and mail box.
      
      When using BL3-1 as a reset vector it is assumed that
      the BL3-1 platform code can determine the location of
      the BL3-2 images, or load them as there are no parameters
      that can be passed to BL3-1 at reset.
      
      It also fixes the incorrect initialisation of mailbox
      registers on the FVP platform
      
      This feature can be enabled by building the code with
      make variable RESET_TO_BL31 set as 1

      Rework handover interface between BL stages · 29fb905d
      Vikram Kanigiri authored
      This patch reworks the handover interface from: BL1 to BL2 and
      BL2 to BL3-1. It removes the raise_el(), change_el(), drop_el()
      and run_image() functions as they catered for code paths that were
      never exercised.
      BL1 calls bl1_run_bl2() to jump into BL2 instead of doing the same
      by calling run_image(). Similarly, BL2 issues the SMC to transfer
      execution to BL3-1 through BL1 directly. Only x0 and x1 are used
      to pass arguments to BL31. These arguments and parameters for
      running BL3-1 are passed through a reference to a
      'el_change_info_t' structure. They were being passed value in
      general purpose registers earlier.

      Correct usage of data and instruction barriers · 8cec598b
      Andrew Thoelke authored
      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.

      Define frequency of system counter in platform code · 9e86490f
      Sandrine Bailleux authored
      BL3-1 architecture setup code programs the system counter frequency
      into the CNTFRQ_EL0 register. This frequency is defined by the
      platform, though. This patch introduces a new platform hook that
      the architecture setup code can call to retrieve this information.
      In the ARM FVP port, this returns the first entry of the frequency
      modes table from the memory mapped generic timer.
      
      All system counter setup code has been removed from BL1 as some
      platforms may not have initialized the system counters at this stage.
      The platform specific settings done exclusively in BL1 have been moved
      to BL3-1. In the ARM FVP port, this consists in enabling and
      initializing the System level generic timer. Also, the frequency change
      request in the counter control register has been set to 0 to make it
      explicit it's using the base frequency. The CNTCR_FCREQ() macro has been
      fixed in this context to give an entry number rather than a bitmask.
      
      In future, when support for firmware update is implemented, there
      is a case where BL1 platform specific code will need to program
      the counter frequency. This should be implemented at that time.
      
      This patch also updates the relevant documentation.

      Update Makefiles to get proper dependency checking working. · 6d55d109
      Jon Medhurst authored
      
      
      This change requires all platforms to now specify a list of source files
      rather than object files.
      
      New source files should preferably be specified by using the path as
      well and we should add this in the future for all files so we can remove
      use of vpath. This is desirable because vpath hides issues like the fact
      that BL2 currently pulls in a BL1 file bl1/aarch64/early_exceptions.S
      and if in the future we added bl2/aarch64/early_exceptions.S then it's
      likely only one of the two version would be used for both bootloaders.
      
      This change also removes the 'dump' build target and simply gets
      bootloaders to always generate a dump file. At the same time the -x
      option is added so the section headers and symbols table are listed.

      Factor out translation table setup in ARM FVP port · a0cd989d
      Achin Gupta authored
      This patch factors out the ARM FVP specific code to create MMU
      translation tables so that it is possible for a boot loader stage to
      create a different set of tables instead of using the default ones.
      The default translation tables are created with the assumption that
      the calling boot loader stage executes out of secure SRAM. This might
      not be true for the BL3_2 stage in the future.
      
      A boot loader stage can define the `fill_xlation_tables()` function as
      per its requirements. It returns a reference to the level 1
      translation table which is used by the common platform code to setup
      the TTBR_EL3.
      
      This patch is a temporary solution before a larger rework of
      translation table creation logic is introduced.

      Rework BL2 to BL3-1 hand over interface · e4d084ea
      Achin Gupta authored
      This patch reworks BL2 to BL3-1 hand over interface by introducing a
      composite structure (bl31_args) that holds the superset of information
      that needs to be passed from BL2 to BL3-1.
      
        - The extents of secure memory available to BL3-1
        - The extents of memory available to BL3-2 (not yet implemented) and
          BL3-3
        - Information to execute BL3-2 (not yet implemented) and BL3-3 images
      
      This patch also introduces a new platform API (bl2_get_bl31_args_ptr)
      that needs to be implemented by the platform code to export reference to
      bl31_args structure which has been allocated in platform-defined memory.
      
      The platform will initialize the extents of memory available to BL3-3
      during early platform setup in bl31_args structure. This obviates the
      need for bl2_get_ns_mem_layout platform API.
      
      BL2 calls the bl2_get_bl31_args_ptr function to get a reference to
      bl31_args structure. It uses the 'bl33_meminfo' field of this structure
      to load the BL3-3 image. It sets the entry point information for the
      BL3-3 image in the 'bl33_image_info' field of this structure. The
      reference to this structure is passed to the BL3-1 image.
      
      Also fixes issue ARM-software/tf-issues#25

      Add exception vector guards · a7934d69
      Jeenu Viswambharan authored
      This patch adds guards so that an exception vector exceeding 32
      instructions will generate a compile-time error. This keeps the
      exception handlers in check from spilling over.

      Setup VBAR_EL3 incrementally · b739f22a
      Achin Gupta authored
      This patch ensures that VBAR_EL3 points to the simple stack-less
      'early_exceptions' when the C runtime stack is not correctly setup to
      use the more complex 'runtime_exceptions'. It is initialised to
      'runtime_exceptions' once this is done.
      
      This patch also moves all exception vectors into a '.vectors' section
      and modifies linker scripts to place all such sections together. This
      will minimize space wastage from alignment restrictions.

      The SynchronousExceptionA64 vector has gone beyond the 32-instruction

      Move translation tables into separate section · 74cbb839
      Jeenu Viswambharan authored
      This patch moves the translation tables into their own section. This
      saves space that would otherwise have been lost in padding due to page
      table alignment constraints. The BL31 and BL32 bases have been
      consequently adjusted.
