      Add cache flush after BL1 writes heap info to DTB · 63cc2658
      John Tsichritzis authored
      
      
      A cache flush is added in BL1, in Mbed TLS shared heap code. Thus, we
      ensure that the heap info written to the DTB always gets written back to
      memory.  Hence, sharing this info with other images is guaranteed.

      Additional runtime check for DTB presence in BL2 · a606031e
      John Tsichritzis authored
      
      
      In Mbed TLS shared heap code, an additional sanity check is introduced
      in BL2. Currently, when BL2 shares heap with BL1, it expects the heap
      info to be found in the DTB. If for any reason the DTB is missing, BL2
      cannot have the heap address and, hence, Mbed TLS cannot proceed. So,
      BL2 cannot continue executing and it will eventually crash.  With this
      change we ensure that if the DTB is missing BL2 will panic() instead of
      having an unpredictable crash.

      Support shared Mbed TLS heap for FVP · ba597da7
      John Tsichritzis authored
      
      
      This patch introduces the shared Mbed TLS heap optimisation for Arm
      platforms. The objective is the Mbed TLS heap to be shared between BL1
      and BL2 so as to not allocate the heap memory twice. To achieve that,
      the patch introduces all the necessary helpers for implementing this
      optimisation. It also applies it for FVP.

      Panic in BL1 when TB_FW_CONFIG is invalid · 355e0967
      John Tsichritzis authored
      
      
      In Arm platforms, when using dynamic configuration, the necessary
      parameters are made available as a DTB. The DTB is loaded by BL1 and,
      later on, is parsed by BL1, BL2 or even both, depending on when
      information from the DTB is needed.
      
      When the DTB is going to be parsed, it must be validated first, to
      ensure that it is properly structured. If an invalid DTB is detected
      then:
        - BL1 prints a diagnostic but allows execution to continue,
        - BL2 prints a diagnostic and panics.
      
      Now the behaviour of BL1 is changed so for it also to panic. Thus, the
      behaviour of BL1 and BL2 is now similar.
      
      Keep in mind that if BL1 only loads the DTB but it doesn't need to
      read/write it, then it doesn't validate it. The validation is done only
      when the DTB is actually going to be accessed.

      ARM platforms: Move BL31 below BL2 to enable BL2 overlay · c099cd39
      Soby Mathew authored
      
      
      The patch changes the layout of BL images in memory to enable
      more efficient use of available space. Previously BL31 was loaded
      with the expectation that BL2 memory would be reclaimed by BL32
      loaded in SRAM. But with increasing memory requirements in the
      firmware, we can no longer fit BL32 in SRAM anymore which means the
      BL2 memory is not reclaimed by any runtime image. Positioning BL2
      below BL1-RW and above BL31 means that the BL31 NOBITS can be
      overlaid on BL2 and BL1-RW.
      
      This patch also propogates the same memory layout to BL32 for AArch32
      mode. The reset addresses for the following configurations are also
      changed :
         * When RESET_TO_SP_MIN=1 for BL32 in AArch32 mode
         * When BL2_AT_EL3=1 for BL2
      
      The restriction on BL31 to be only in DRAM when SPM is enabled
      is now removed with this change. The update to the firmware design
      guide for the BL memory layout is done in the following patch.

      FVP: Add dummy configs for BL31, BL32 and BL33 · 1d71ba14
      Soby Mathew authored
      
      
      This patch adds soc_fw_config, tos_fw_config and nt_fw_config to the FVP.
      The config files are placeholders and do not have any useful bindings
      defined. The tos_fw_config is packaged in FIP and loaded by BL2 only
      if SPD=tspd. The load address of these configs are specified in tb_fw_config
      via new bindings defined for these configs. Currently, in FVP, the
      soc_fw_config and tos_fw_config is loaded in the page between BL2_BASE
      and ARM_SHARED_RAM. This memory was typically used for BL32 when
      ARM_TSP_RAM_LOCATION=tsram but since we cannot fit BL32 in that
      space anymore, it should be safe to use this memory for these configs.
      There is also a runtime check in arm_bl2_dyn_cfg_init() which ensures
      that this overlap doesn't happen.
      
      The previous arm_dyn_get_hwconfig_info() is modified to accept configs
      other than hw_config and hence renamed to arm_dyn_get_config_load_info().
      The patch also corrects the definition of ARM_TB_FW_CONFIG_LIMIT to be
      BL2_BASE.

      FVP: Enable capability to disable auth via dynamic config · 6e79f9fd
      Soby Mathew authored
      
      
      This patch adds capability to FVP to disable authentication dynamically
      via the `disable_auth` property in TB_FW_CONFIG. Both BL1 and BL2 parses
      the TB_FW_CONFIG for the `disable_auth` property and invokes the
      `load_dyn_disable_auth()` API to disable authentication if the
      property is set to 1. The DYN_DISABLE_AUTH is enabled by default for
      FVP as it is a development platform. Note that the TB_FW_CONFIG has to
      be authenticated by BL1 irrespective of these settings.
      
      The arm_bl2_dyn_cfg_init() is now earlier in bl2_plat_preload_setup()
      rather than in bl2_platform_setup() as we need to get the value of
      `disable_auth` property prior to authentication of any image by BL2.

      ARM Platforms: Load HW_CONFIG in BL2 · cab0b5b0
      Soby Mathew authored
      
      
      The patch adds the necessary changes to load HW_CONFIG in BL2 for
      ARM Platforms :
      
      1. The load address of HW_CONFIG is specified via the `hw_config_addr`
      property in TB_FW_CONFIG is loaded by BL1. The `hw_config_max_size`
      property defines the maximum size to be expected for the HW_CONFIG.
      The `arm_dyn_cfg_helpers.c` and corresponding header implements
      utility functions to parse these DT properties defined.
      The `arm_dyn_cfg.c` implements wrappers to these helpers to enable
      them to be invoked from ARM platform layer.
      
      2. `HW_CONFIG` is added to the `bl2_mem_params_descs[]` array which is
      the list of images to be loaded by BL2.
      
      3. The `libfdt` sources are now included when BL2 is built
      
      4. A new helper `populate_next_bl_params_config()` is introduced in
      desc_image_load.c to populate the subsequent executable BL images
      with the `hw_config` and the corresponding `fw_config` if available.
      The `plat_get_next_bl_params()` API for ARM platforms is modified to
      invoke this new helper.
      
      5. The implementation of `bl2_early_platform_setup2()` is modified to
      consider `arg0` as well in addition to `arg1` passed from BL1.
      
      6. Bump up the BL2 size for Juno to accommodate the inclusion of libfdt.

      ARM Platorms: Load TB_FW_CONFIG in BL1 · c228956a
      Soby Mathew authored
      
      
      This patch modifies the bl1_platform_setup() API to load and authenticate
      TB_FW_CONFIG in BL1. The load address of the same is passed on to BL2 in
      `arg0` of entrypoint info. The fvp_io_storage.c and arm_io_storage.c also
      adds entries corresponding to TB_FW_CONFIG. A helper function
      `arm_load_tb_fw_config()` is added to load and authenticate TB_FW_CONFIG
      if present.
