This has been introduced to simplify dependencies on the FDT wrappers.
We generally want to avoid pulling in components on a file-by-file
basis, particularly as we are trying to draw conceptual boxes around
components in preparation for transitioning the build system to CMake,
where dependencies are modelled on libraries rather than files.

For convenience we let the build system generate an ELF file (named
bl31.axf), containing all the trampolines, BL31 code and the DTB in one
file. This can be fed directly into the FPGA payload tool, and it will
load the bits at the right addresses.
Since this ELF file is more used as a "container with load addresses",
there is no need for normal ELF features like alignment or a symbol
table.
Remove unnecessary sections from that output file, by doing a static
"link", dropping the NOBITS stacks section, and by adding "-n" to the
linker command line (to avoid page alignment). This trims the generated
.axf file, and makes it smaller.

The arm64 Linux kernel needed to be loaded at a certain offset within any
2MB aligned region; this value was configured at compile time and stored
in the Linux kernel image header. The default value was always 512KiB,
so this is the value we use in the TF-A build system for the kernel
load address.
However the whole scheme around the TEXT_OFFSET changed in Linux v5.8:
Linux kernels became fully relocatable, so this value is largely ignored
now, and its default value changed to 0. The only remainder is a warning
message at boot time in case there is a mismatch:
[Firmware Bug]: Kernel image misaligned at boot, please fix your bootloader!
To avoid this warning, and to make TF-A Linux kernel boot protocol
compliant, we should load newer kernels to offset 0 of a 2 MB
region. This can be done by the user at FPGA boot time, but BL31 needs
to know about this address. As we can't change the build default to 0
without breaking older kernels, we should try to make a build dealing
with both versions:
This patch introduces a small trampoline code, which gets loaded at
512KB of DRAM, and branches up to 2MB. If users load their newer
kernels at 2MB, this trampoline will cover them. In case an older kernel
is loaded at 512KB, it will overwrite this trampoline code, so it would
still work.

Up until now we relied on the GICs used in our FPGA images to be GICv3
compliant, without the "direct virtual injection" feature (aka GICv4)
enabled.
To support newer images which have GICv4 compliant GICs, enable the
newly introduced GICv4 detection code, and use that also when we adjust
the redistributor region size in the devicetree.
This allows the same BL31 image to be used with GICv3 or GICv4 FPGA
images.

For the Arm Ltd. FPGAs to run, we need to load several payloads into the
FPGA's memory:
- Some trampoline code at address 0x0, to jump to BL31's entry point.
- The actual BL31 binary at the beginning of DRAM.
- The (generic) DTB image to describe the hardware.
- The actual non-secure payloads (kernel, ramdisks, ...)
The latter is application specific, but the first three blobs are rather
generic.
Since the uploader tool supports ELF binaries, it seems helpful to
combine these three images into one .axf file, as this also simplifies
the command line.
Add a post-build linker script, that combines those three bits into one
ELF file, together with their specific load addresses.
Include a call to "ld" with this linker script in the platform Makefile,
so it will be build automatically. The result will be called "bl31.axf".

The application cores of the FPGAs used in Arm Ltd. start execution at
address 0x0. This is the location of some (emulated) ROM area (which can
be written to by the uploading tool).
Since the arm_fpga port is configured to run from DRAM, we load BL31 to
the beginning of DRAM (mapped at 2GB). This requires some small
trampoline code in the "ROM" to jump to the BL31 entry point.
To avoid some extra magic binary, add a tiny assembly file with that
trivial jump instruction to the tree, so this binary can be created
alongside BL31.

The FPGA images used in Arm Ltd. focus on CPU cores, so they share a
common platform, with a minimal set of peripherals (interconnect, GIC,
UART).
This allows to support most platforms with a single devicetree file.
The topology and number of CPU cores differ, but those will added at
runtime, in BL31. Other adjustments (GICR size, SPE node, command line)
are also done at this point.
Add the common devicetree file to TF-A's build system, so it can be
build together with BL31. At runtime, the resulting .dtb file should be
uploaded to the address given with FPGA_PRELOADED_DTB_BASE at build time.

This patch allows the system to fallback to a default CPU library
in case the MPID does not match with any of the supported ones.
This feature can be enabled by setting SUPPORT_UNKNOWN_MPID build
option to 1 (enabled by default only on arm_fpga platform).
This feature can be very dangerous on a production image and
therefore it MUST be disabled for Release images.

At the moment BL31 dynamically discovers the CPU topology of an FPGA
system at runtime, but does not export it to the non-secure world.
Any BL33 user would typically looks at the devicetree to learn about
existing CPUs.
This patch exports a minimum /cpus node in a devicetree to satisfy
the binding. This means that no cpumaps or caches are described.
This could be added later if needed.
An existing /cpus node in the DT will make the code bail out with a
message.

The command line for BL33 payloads is typically taken from the DTB. On
"normal" systems the bootloader will put the right version in there, but
we typically don't use one on the FPGAs.
To avoid editing (and possibly re-packaging) the DTB for every change in
the command line, try to read it from some "magic" memory location
instead. It can be easily placed there by the tool that uploads the
other payloads to the FPGA's memory. BL31 will then replace the existing
command line in the DTB with that new string.
To avoid reading garbage, check the memory location for containing a
magic value. This is conveniently chosen to be a simple ASCII string, so
it can just preceed the actual command line in a text file:
--------------------------------
CMD:console=ttyAMA0,38400n8 debug loglevel=8

The memory layout for the FPGA is fairly uniform for most of the FPGA
images, and we already assume that DRAM starts at 2GB by default.
Prepopulate PRELOADED_BL33_BASE and FPGA_PRELOADED_DTB_BASE to some
sane default values, to simplify building some stock image.
If people want to deviate from that, they can always override those
addresses on the make command line.

The only difference between GIC-500 and GIC-600 relevant to TF-A is the
differing power management sequence.
A certain GIC implementation is detectable at runtime, for instance by
checking the IIDR register. Let's add that test before initiating the
GIC-600 specific sequence, so the code can be used on both GIC-600 and
GIC-500 chips alike, without deciding on a GIC chip at compile time.
This means that the GIC-500 "driver" is now redundant. To allow minimal
platform support, add a switch to disable GIC-600 support.

The ARM Generic Timer DT binding describes an (optional) property to
declare the counter frequency. Its usage is normally discouraged, as the
value should be read from the CNTFRQ_EL0 system register.
However in our case we can use it to program this register in the first
place, which avoids us to hard code a counter frequency into the code.
We keep some default value in, if the DT lacks that property for
whatever reason.

This change is part of the goal of enabling the port to be compatible
with multiple FPGA images.
BL31 behaves differently depending on whether or not the CPUs in the
system use cache coherency, and as a result any CPU libraries that are
compiled together must serve processors that are consistent in this
regard.
This compiles a different set of CPU libraries depending on whether or
not the HW_ASSISTED_COHERENCY is enabled at build-time to indicate the
CPUs support hardware-level support for cache coherency. This build
flag is used in the makefile in the same way as the Arm FVP port.

This change is part of the goal of enabling the port to be compatible
with multiple FPGA images.
The BL31 port that is uploaded as a payload to the FPGA with an image
should cater for a wide variety of system configurations. This patch
makes the necessary changes to enable it to function with images whose
cluster configurations may be larger (either by utilizing more
clusters, more CPUs per cluster, more threads in each CPU, or a
combination) than the initial image being used for testing.
As part of this, the hard-coded values that configure the size of the
array describing the topology of the power domain tree are increased
to max. 8 clusters, max. 8 cores per cluster & max 4 threads per core.
This ensures the port works with cluster configurations up to these
sizes. When there are too many entries for the number of available PEs,
e.g. if there is a variable number of CPUs between clusters, then there
will be empty entries in the array. This is permitted and the PSCI
library will still function as expected. While this increases its size,
this shouldn't be an issue in the context of the size of BL31, and is
worth the trade-off for the extra compatibility.

This adds the minimal functions and definitions to create a basic
BL31 port for an initial FPGA image, in order for the port to be
uploaded to one the FPGA boards operated by an internal group within
Arm, such that BL31 runs as a payload for an image.
Future changes will enable the port for a wide range of system
configurations running on the FPGA boards to ensure compatibility with
multiple FPGA images.
It is expected that this will replace the FPGA fork of the Linux kernel
bootwrapper by performing similar secure-world initialization and setup
through the use of drivers and other well-established methods, before
passing control to the kernel, which will act as the BL33 payload and
run in EL2NS.
This change introduces a basic, loadable port with the console
initialized by setting the baud rate and base address of the UART as
configured by the Zeus image.
It is a BL31-only port, and RESET_TO_BL31 is enabled to reflect this.
