Even though ERET always causes a jump to another address, aarch64 CPUs
speculatively execute following instructions as if the ERET
instruction was not a jump instruction.
The speculative execution does not cross privilege-levels (to the jump
target as one would expect), but it continues on the kernel privilege
level as if the ERET instruction did not change the control flow -
thus execution anything that is accidentally linked after the ERET
instruction. Later, the results of this speculative execution are
always architecturally discarded, however they can leak data using
microarchitectural side channels. This speculative execution is very
reliable (seems to be unconditional) and it manages to complete even
relatively performance-heavy operations (e.g. multiple dependent
fetches from uncached memory).

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.

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.

The style that this project is now to use the full name of the file in

"uart_example.h", the header guard is UART_EXAMPLE_H.

The exceptions are files that are imported from other projects:

- CryptoCell driver

This patch fixes up the AArch64 assembly code to use
adrp/adr instructions instead of ldr instruction for
reference to symbols. This allows these assembly
sequences to be Position Independant. Note that the
the reference to sizes have been replaced with
calculation of size at runtime. This is because size
is a constant value and does not depend on execution
address and using PC relative instructions for loading
them makes them relative to execution address. Also
we cannot use `ldr` instruction to load size as it
generates a dynamic relocation entry which must *not*
be fixed up and it is difficult for a dynamic loader
to differentiate which entries need to be skipped.

At present, the function provided by the translation library to enable
MMU constructs appropriate values for translation library, and programs
them to the right registers. The construction of initial values,
however, is only required once as both the primary and secondaries
program the same values.

Additionally, the MMU-enabling function is written in C, which means
there's an active stack at the time of enabling MMU. On some systems,
like Arm DynamIQ, having active stack while enabling MMU during warm
boot might lead to coherency problems.

This patch addresses both the above problems by:

  - Splitting the MMU-enabling function into two: one that sets up
    values to be programmed into the registers, and another one that
    takes the pre-computed values and writes to the appropriate
    registers. With this, the primary effectively calls both functions
    to have the MMU enabled, but secondaries only need to call the
    latter.

  - Rewriting the function that enables MMU in assembly so that it
    doesn't use stack.

This patch fixes a bunch of MISRA issues on the way.

RAS extensions are mandatory for ARMv8.2 CPUs, but are also optional
extensions to base ARMv8.0 architecture.

This patch adds build system support to enable RAS features in ARM
Trusted Firmware. A boolean build option RAS_EXTENSION is introduced for
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.

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.

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.

This patch moves the PSCI services and BL31 frameworks like context

`el3_runtime` respectively. This enables PSCI to be built independently from
BL31. A new `psci_lib.mk` makefile is introduced which adds the relevant
PSCI library sources and gets included by `bl31.mk`. Other changes which
are done as part of this patch are:

* The runtime services framework is now moved to the `common/` folder to
  enable reuse.
* The `asm_macros.S` and `assert_macros.S` helpers are moved to architecture
  specific folder.
* The `plat_psci_common.c` is moved from the `plat/common/aarch64/` folder
  to `plat/common` folder. The original file location now has a stub which
  just includes the file from new location to maintain platform compatibility.

Most of the changes wouldn't affect platform builds as they just involve
changes to the generic bl1.mk and bl31.mk makefiles.

NOTE: THE `plat_psci_common.c` FILE HAS MOVED LOCATION AND THE STUB FILE AT
THE ORIGINAL LOCATION IS NOW DEPRECATED. PLATFORMS SHOULD MODIFY THEIR

The per-cpu stacks should be aligned to the cache-line size and
the `declare_stack` helper in asm_macros.S macro assumed a
cache-line size of 64 bytes. The platform defines the cache-line
size via CACHE_WRITEBACK_GRANULE macro. This patch modifies
`declare_stack` helper macro to derive stack alignment from the
platform defined macro.

The documentation of the GNU assembler specifies the following about
the .align assembler directive:
 "the padding bytes are normally zero. However, on some systems, if
 the section is marked as containing code and the fill value is
 omitted, the space is filled with no-op instructions."
(see https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/as/Align.html)

When building Trusted Firmware, the AArch64 GNU assembler uses a
mix of zero bytes and no-op instructions as the padding bytes to
align exception vectors.

This patch mandates to use zero bytes to be stored in the padding
bytes in the exception vectors. In the AArch64 instruction set, no
valid instruction encodes as zero so this effectively inserts
illegal instructions. Should this code end up being executed for
any reason, it would crash immediately. This gives us an extra
protection against misbehaving code at no extra cost.

This patch changes the build time behaviour when using deprecated API within
Trusted Firmware. Previously the use of deprecated APIs would only trigger a
build warning (which was always treated as a build error), when
WARN_DEPRECATED = 1. Now, the use of deprecated C declarations will always
trigger a build time warning. Whether this warning is treated as error or not
is determined by the build flag ERROR_DEPRECATED which is disabled by default.
When the build flag ERROR_DEPRECATED=1, the invocation of deprecated API or
inclusion of deprecated headers will result in a build error.

Also the deprecated context management helpers in context_mgmt.c are now
conditionally compiled depending on the value of ERROR_DEPRECATED flag
so that the APIs themselves do not result in a build error when the
ERROR_DEPRECATED flag is set.

NOTE: Build systems that use the macro WARN_DEPRECATED must migrate to
using ERROR_DEPRECATED, otherwise deprecated API usage will no longer
trigger a build error.

This patch defines deprecated platform APIs to enable Trusted
Firmware components like Secure Payload and their dispatchers(SPD)
to continue to build and run when platform compatibility is disabled.
This decouples the migration of platform ports to the new platform API
from SPD and enables them to be migrated independently. The deprecated
platform APIs defined in this patch are : platform_get_core_pos(),
platform_get_stack() and platform_set_stack().

The patch also deprecates MPIDR based context management helpers like
cm_get_context_by_mpidr(), cm_set_context_by_mpidr() and cm_init_context().
A mechanism to deprecate APIs and identify callers of these APIs during
build is introduced, which is controlled by the build flag WARN_DEPRECATED.
If WARN_DEPRECATED is defined to 1, the users of the deprecated APIs will be
flagged either as a link error for assembly files or compile time warning
for C files during build.

The default weak implementation of platform_get_core_pos() is now removed from

Note: The Secure Payloads and their dispatchers still use the old platform

flag will remain enabled in subsequent patch. The compatibility for SPDs using
the older APIs on platforms migrated to the new APIs will be added in the

This patch introduces new platform APIs and context management helper APIs
to support the new topology framework based on linear core position. This
framework will be introduced in the follwoing patch and it removes the
assumption that the MPIDR based affinity levels map directly to levels
in a power domain tree. The new platforms APIs and context management
helpers based on core position are as described below:

* plat_my_core_pos() and plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()

These 2 new mandatory platform APIs are meant to replace the existing
'platform_get_core_pos()' API. The 'plat_my_core_pos()' API returns the
linear index of the calling core and 'plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()' returns
the linear index of a core specified by its MPIDR. The latter API will also
validate the MPIDR passed as an argument and will return an error code (-1)
if an invalid MPIDR is passed as the argument. This enables the caller to
safely convert an MPIDR of another core to its linear index without querying
the PSCI topology tree e.g. during a call to PSCI CPU_ON.

Since the 'plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()' API verifies an MPIDR, which is always
platform specific, it is no longer possible to maintain a default implementation
of this API. Also it might not be possible for a platform port to verify an
MPIDR before the C runtime has been setup or the topology has been initialized.
This would prevent 'plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()' from being callable prior to
topology setup. As a result, the generic Trusted Firmware code does not call
this API before the topology setup has been done.

The 'plat_my_core_pos' API should be able to run without a C runtime.
Since this API needs to return a core position which is equal to the one
returned by 'plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()' API for the corresponding MPIDR,
this too cannot have default implementation and is a mandatory API for
platform ports. These APIs will be implemented by the ARM reference platform
ports later in the patch stack.

* plat_get_my_stack() and plat_set_my_stack()

These APIs are the stack management APIs which set/return stack addresses
appropriate for the calling core. These replace the 'platform_get_stack()' and
'platform_set_stack()' APIs. A default weak MP version and a global UP version
of these APIs are provided for the platforms.

* Context management helpers based on linear core position

A set of new context management(CM) helpers viz cm_get_context_by_index(),
cm_set_context_by_index(), cm_init_my_context() and cm_init_context_by_index()
are defined which are meant to replace the old helpers which took MPIDR
as argument. The old CM helpers are implemented based on the new helpers to
allow for code consolidation and will be deprecated once the switch to the new
framework is done.

The attempt to run the CPU reset code as soon as possible after reset
results in highly complex conditional code relating to the
RESET_TO_BL31 option.

This patch relaxes this requirement a little. In the BL1, BL3-1 and
PSCI entrypoints code, the sequence of operations is now as follows:
 1) Detect whether it is a cold or warm boot;
 2) For cold boot, detect whether it is the primary or a secondary
    CPU. This is needed to handle multiple CPUs entering cold reset
    simultaneously;
 3) Run the CPU init code.

This patch also abstracts the EL3 registers initialisation done by

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#76

Change-Id: Ia251f61b8148ffa73eae3f3711f57b1ffebfa632

This extends the --gc-sections behaviour to the many assembler
support functions in the firmware images by placing each function
into its own code section. This is achieved by creating a 'func'
macro used to declare each function label.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#80

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.

This patch uses the reworked exception handling support to handle
runtime service requests through SMCs following the SMC calling
convention. This is a giant commit since all the changes are
inter-related. It does the following:

1. Replace the old exception handling mechanism with the new one
2. Enforce that SP_EL0 is used C runtime stacks.
3. Ensures that the cold and warm boot paths use the 'cpu_context'
   structure to program an ERET into the next lower EL.
4. Ensures that SP_EL3 always points to the next 'cpu_context'
   structure prior to an ERET into the next lower EL
5. Introduces a PSCI SMC handler which completes the use of PSCI as a
   runtime service
