This patch unifies the bakery lock api's across coherent and normal memory implementation of locks by using same data type `bakery_lock_t` and similar arguments to functions. A separate section `bakery_lock` has been created and used to allocate memory for bakery locks using `DEFINE_BAKERY_LOCK`. When locks are allocated in normal memory, each lock for a core has to spread across multiple cache lines. By using the total size allocated in a separate cache line for a single core at compile time, the memory for other core locks is allocated at link time by multiplying the single core locks size with (PLATFORM_CORE_COUNT - 1). The normal memory lock algorithm now uses lock address instead of the `id` in the per_cpu_data. For locks allocated in coherent memory, it moves locks from tzfw_coherent_memory to bakery_lock section. The bakery locks are allocated as part of bss or in coherent memory depending on usage of coherent memory. Both these regions are initialised to zero as part of run_time_init before locks are used. Hence, bakery_lock_init() is made an empty function as the lock memory is already initialised to zero. The above design lead to the removal of psci bakery locks from non_cpu_power_pd_node to psci_locks. NOTE: THE BAKERY LOCK API WHEN USE_COHERENT_MEM IS NOT SET HAS CHANGED. THIS IS A BREAKING CHANGE FOR ALL PLATFORM PORTS THAT ALLOCATE BAKERY LOCKS IN NORMAL MEMORY. Change-Id: Ic3751c0066b8032dcbf9d88f1d4dc73d15f61d8b

This patch extends the build option `USE_COHERENT_MEMORY` to conditionally remove coherent memory from the memory maps of all boot loader stages. The patch also adds necessary documentation for coherent memory removal in firmware-design, porting and user guides. Fixes ARM-Software/tf-issues#106 Change-Id: I260e8768c6a5c2efc402f5804a80657d8ce38773

This patch fixes the incorrect value of the LENGTH attribute in the linker scripts. This attribute must define the memory size, not the limit address. Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#252 Change-Id: I328c38b9ec502debe12046a8912d7dfc54610c46

This patch introduces a framework which will allow CPUs to perform implementation defined actions after a CPU reset, during a CPU or cluster power down, and when a crash occurs. CPU specific reset handlers have been implemented in this patch. Other handlers will be implemented in subsequent patches. Also moved cpu_helpers.S to the new directory lib/cpus/aarch64/.

Secure ROM at address 0x0000_0000 is defined as FVP_TRUSTED_ROM Secure RAM at address 0x0400_0000 is defined as FVP_TRUSTED_SRAM Secure RAM at address 0x0600_0000 is defined as FVP_TRUSTED_DRAM BLn_BASE and BLn_LIMIT definitions have been updated and are based on these new memory regions. The available memory for each bootloader in the linker script is defined by BLn_BASE and BLn_LIMIT, instead of the complete memory region. TZROM_BASE/SIZE and TZRAM_BASE/SIZE are no longer required as part of the platform porting. FVP common definitions are defined in fvp_def.h while platform_def.h contains exclusively (with a few exceptions) the definitions that are mandatory in the porting guide. Therefore, platform_def.h now includes fvp_def.h instead of the other way around. Porting guide has been updated to reflect these changes. Change-Id: I39a6088eb611fc4a347db0db4b8f1f0417dbab05

This patch re-organizes the memory layout on FVP as to give the BL3-2 image as much memory as possible. Considering these two facts: - not all images need to live in memory at the same time. Once in BL3-1, the memory used by BL1 and BL2 can be reclaimed. - when BL2 loads the BL3-1 and BL3-2 images, it only considers the PROGBITS sections of those 2 images. The memory occupied by the NOBITS sections will be touched only at execution of the BL3-x images; Then it is possible to choose the different base addresses such that the NOBITS sections of BL3-1 and BL3-2 overlay BL1 and BL2. On FVP we choose to put: - BL1 and BL3-1 at the top of the Trusted RAM, with BL3-1 NOBITS sections overlaying BL1; - BL3-2 at the bottom of the Trusted RAM, with its NOBITS sections overlaying BL2; This is illustrated by the following diagram: 0x0404_0000 ------------ ------------------ | BL1 | <= | BL3-1 NOBITS | ------------ <= ------------------ | | <= | BL3-1 PROGBITS | ------------ ------------------ | BL2 | <= | BL3-2 NOBITS | ------------ <= ------------------ | | <= | BL3-2 PROGBITS | 0x0400_0000 ------------ ------------------ New platform-specific constants have been introduced to easily check at link time that BL3-1 and BL3-2 PROGBITS sections don't overwrite BL1 and BL2. These are optional and the platform code is free to define them or not. If not defined, the linker won't attempt to check image overlaying.

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.

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. Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#163 Change-Id: I8c108646825da19a6a8dfb091b613e1dd4ae133c

All common functions are being built into all binary images, whether or not they are actually used. This change enables the use of -ffunction-sections, -fdata-sections and --gc-sections in the compiler and linker to remove unused code and data from the images.

At present, the entry point for each BL image is specified via the Makefiles and provided on the command line to the linker. When using a link script the entry point should rather be specified via the ENTRY() directive in the link script. This patch updates linker scripts of all BL images to specify the entry point using the ENTRY() directive. It also removes the --entry flag passed to the linker through Makefile. Fixes issue ARM-software/tf-issues#66 Change-Id: I1369493ebbacea31885b51185441f6b628cf8da0

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. Change-Id: I09a075d5da16822ee32a411a9dbe284718fb4ff6

This patch introduces the framework to enable registration and initialisation of runtime services. PSCI is registered and initialised as a runtime service. Handling of runtime service requests will be implemented in subsequent patches. Change-Id: Id21e7ddc5a33d42b7d6e455b41155fc5441a9547

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. Change-Id: I8c3e596ea3412c8bd582af9e8d622bb1cb2e049d

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. Change-Id: Ibd65ae8a5ce4c4ea9a71a794c95bbff40dc63e65
