From 9c1dceb106474966211a3782f8e89e195b4c079c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yatharth Kochar Date: Wed, 28 Sep 2016 11:00:05 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] AArch32: Add `memcpy4` function in assembly At present the `el3_entrypoint_common` macro uses `memcpy` function defined in lib/stdlib/mem.c file, to copy data from ROM to RAM for BL1. Depending on the compiler being used the stack could potentially be used, in `memcpy`, for storing the local variables. Since the stack is initialized much later in `el3_entrypoint_common` it may result in unknown behaviour. This patch adds `memcpy4` function definition in assembly so that it can be used before the stack is initialized and it also replaces `memcpy` by `memcpy4` in `el3_entrypoint_common` macro, to copy data from ROM to RAM for BL1.
