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
the BL1, BL3-1 and PSCI entrypoints into common code.
This improves code re-use and consolidates the code flows for
different types of systems.
NOTE: THE FUNCTION plat_secondary_cold_boot() IS NOW EXPECTED TO
NEVER RETURN. THIS PATCH FORCES PLATFORM PORTS THAT RELIED ON THE
FORMER RETRY LOOP AT THE CALL SITE TO MODIFY THEIR IMPLEMENTATION.
OTHERWISE, SECONDARY CPUS WILL PANIC.

There are couple of issues with how the interrupt routing framework in BL3_1
handles spurious interrupts.
1. In the macro 'handle_interrupt_exception', if a spurious interrupt is
detected by plat_ic_get_pending_interrupt_type(), then execution jumps to
'interrupt_exit_\label'. This macro uses the el3_exit() function to return to
the original exception level. el3_exit() attempts to restore the SPSR_EL3 and
ELR_EL3 registers with values from the current CPU context. Since these
registers were not saved in this code path, it programs stale values into
these registers. This leads to unpredictable behaviour after the execution of
the ERET instruction.
2. When an interrupt is routed to EL3, it could be de-asserted before the
GICC_HPPIR is read in plat_ic_get_pending_interrupt_type(). There could be
another interrupt pending at the same time e.g. a non-secure interrupt. Its
type will be returned instead of the original interrupt. This would result in
a call to get_interrupt_type_handler(). The firmware will panic if the
handler for this type of interrupt has not been registered.
This patch fixes the first problem by saving SPSR_EL3 and ELR_EL3 early in the
'handle_interrupt_exception' macro, instead of only doing so once the validity
of the interrupt has been determined.
The second problem is fixed by returning execution back to the lower exception
level through the 'interrupt_exit_\label' label instead of treating it as an
error condition. The 'interrupt_error_\label' label has been removed since it is
no longer used.

In order for the symbol table in the ELF file to contain the size of

assembler using the .size directive.
To fulfil the above requirements, this patch introduces an 'endfunc'

a .func directive to the 'func' assembler macro.
The .func/.endfunc have been used so the assembler can fail if

The cpu-ops pointer was initialized before enabling the data cache in the cold
and warm boot paths. This required a DCIVAC cache maintenance operation to
invalidate any stale cache lines resident in other cpus.
This patch moves this initialization to the bl31_arch_setup() function
which is always called after the data cache and MMU has been enabled.
This change removes the need:
1. for the DCIVAC cache maintenance operation.
2. to initialise the CPU ops upon resumption from a PSCI CPU_SUSPEND
call since memory contents are always preserved in this case.

This patch adds support to call the reset_handler() function in BL3-1 in the
cold and warm boot paths when another Boot ROM reset_handler() has already run.
This means the BL1 and BL3-1 versions of the CPU and platform specific reset
handlers may execute different code to each other. This enables a developer to
perform additional actions or undo actions already performed during the first
call of the reset handlers e.g. apply additional errata workarounds.
Typically, the reset handler will be first called from the BL1 Boot ROM. Any
additional functionality can be added to the reset handler when it is called
from BL3-1 resident in RW memory. The constant FIRST_RESET_HANDLER_CALL is used
to identify whether this is the first version of the reset handler code to be
executed or an overridden version of the code.
The Cortex-A57 errata workarounds are applied only if they have not already been
applied.

This patch provides an option to specify a interrupt routing model
where non-secure interrupts (IRQs) are routed to EL3 instead of S-EL1.
When such an interrupt occurs, the TSPD arranges a return to
the normal world after saving any necessary context. The interrupt
routing model to route IRQs to EL3 is enabled only during STD SMC
processing. Thus the pre-emption of S-EL1 is disabled during Fast SMC
and Secure Interrupt processing.
A new build option TSPD_ROUTE_NS_INT_EL3 is introduced to change
the non secure interrupt target execution level to EL3.

This patch moves the bakery locks out of coherent memory to normal memory.
This implies that the lock information needs to be placed on a separate cache
line for each cpu. Hence the bakery_lock_info_t structure is allocated in the
per-cpu data so as to minimize memory wastage. A similar platform per-cpu
data is introduced for the platform locks.
As a result of the above changes, the bakery lock api is completely changed.
Earlier, a reference to the lock structure was passed to the lock implementation.
Now a unique-id (essentially an index into the per-cpu data array) and an offset
into the per-cpu data for bakery_info_t needs to be passed to the lock
implementation.

This patch adds CPU core and cluster power down sequences to the CPU specific
operations framework introduced in a earlier patch. Cortex-A53, Cortex-A57 and
generic AEM sequences have been added. The latter is suitable for the
Foundation and Base AEM FVPs. A pointer to each CPU's operations structure is
saved in the per-cpu data so that it can be easily accessed during power down
seqeunces.
An optional platform API has been introduced to allow a platform to disable the
Accelerator Coherency Port (ACP) during a cluster power down sequence. The weak
definition of this function (plat_disable_acp()) does not take any action. It
should be overriden with a strong definition if the ACP is present on a

This patch adds support for SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET PSCI
operations. A platform should export handlers to complete the
requested operation. The FVP port exports fvp_system_off() and
fvp_system_reset() as an example.
If the SPD provides a power management hook for system off and
system reset, then the SPD is notified about the corresponding
operation so it can do some bookkeeping. The TSPD exports
tspd_system_off() and tspd_system_reset() for that purpose.
Versatile Express shutdown and reset methods have been removed
from the FDT as new PSCI sys_poweroff and sys_reset services
have been added. For those kernels that do not support yet these
PSCI services (i.e. GICv3 kernel), the original dtsi files have

The purpose of platform_is_primary_cpu() is to determine after reset
(BL1 or BL3-1 with reset handler) if the current CPU must follow the
cold boot path (primary CPU), or wait in a safe state (secondary CPU)
until the primary CPU has finished the system initialization.
This patch removes redundant calls to platform_is_primary_cpu() in
subsequent bootloader entrypoints since the reset handler already
guarantees that code is executed exclusively on the primary CPU.
Additionally, this patch removes the weak definition of
platform_is_primary_cpu(), so the implementation of this function
becomes mandatory. Removing the weak symbol avoids other
bootloaders accidentally picking up an invalid definition in case the
porting layer makes the real function available only to BL1.
The define PRIMARY_CPU is no longer mandatory in the platform porting
because platform_is_primary_cpu() hides the implementation details
(for instance, there may be platforms that report the primary CPU in
a system register). The primary CPU definition in FVP has been moved
to fvp_def.h.
The porting guide has been updated accordingly.

* cptr_el3 controls access to Trace, Floating-point, and Advanced

This patch uses stacks allocated in normal memory to enable the MMU early in the

memory. Necessary cache and stack maintenance is performed when a cpu is being

reading speculatively fetched stale stack memory from another CPUs cache. These
changes affect the warm boot path in both BL3-1 and BL3-2.

and restored any longer. Static values are used to program these system
registers when a cpu is powered on or resumed from suspend.

This patch reworks the cold boot path across the BL1, BL2, BL3-1 and BL3-2 boot
loader stages to not use stacks allocated in coherent memory for early platform
setup and enabling the MMU. Stacks allocated in normal memory are used instead.
Attributes for stack memory change from nGnRnE when the MMU is disabled to
Normal WBWA Inner-shareable when the MMU and data cache are enabled. It is
possible for the CPU to read stale stack memory after the MMU is enabled from
another CPUs cache. Hence, it is unsafe to turn on the MMU and data cache while
using normal stacks when multiple CPUs are a part of the same coherency
domain. It is safe to do so in the cold boot path as only the primary cpu
executes it. The secondary cpus are in a quiescent state.
This patch does not remove the allocation of coherent stack memory. That is done
in a subsequent patch.

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.

Consolidate all BL3-1 CPU context initialization for cold boot, PSCI
and SPDs into two functions:
* The first uses entry_point_info to initialize the relevant
cpu_context for first entry into a lower exception level on a CPU
* The second populates the EL1 and EL2 system registers as needed
from the cpu_context to ensure correct entry into the lower EL
This patch alters the way that BL3-1 determines which exception level
is used when first entering EL1 or EL2 during cold boot - this is now
fully determined by the SPSR value in the entry_point_info for BL3-3,
as set up by the platform code in BL2 (or otherwise provided to BL3-1).
In the situation that EL1 (or svc mode) is selected for a processor
that supports EL2, the context management code will now configure all
essential EL2 register state to ensure correct execution of EL1. This
allows the platform code to run non-secure EL1 payloads directly
without requiring a small EL2 stub or OS loader.

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.

Implements support for Non Secure Interrupts preempting the
Standard SMC call in EL1. Whenever an IRQ is trapped in the
Secure world we securely handover to the Normal world
to process the interrupt. The normal world then issues
"resume" smc call to resume the previous interrupted SMC call.

This patch adds a common handler for FIQ and IRQ exceptions in the
BL3-1 runtime exception vector table. This function determines the
interrupt type and calls its handler. A crash is reported if an
inconsistency in the interrupt management framework is detected. In
the event of a spurious interrupt, execution resumes from the
instruction where the interrupt was generated.
This patch also removes 'cm_macros.S' as its contents have been moved
to 'runtime_exceptions.S'
Change-Id: I3c85ecf8eaf43a3fac429b119ed0bd706d2e2093
This patch introduces a framework for registering interrupts routed to
EL3. The interrupt routing model is governed by the SCR_EL3.IRQ and
FIQ bits and the security state an interrupt is generated in. The
framework recognizes three type of interrupts depending upon which
exception level and security state they should be handled in
i.e. Secure EL1 interrupts, Non-secure interrupts and EL3
interrupts. It provides an API and macros that allow a runtime service
to register an handler for a type of interrupt and specify the routing
model. The framework validates the routing model and uses the context
management framework to ensure that it is applied to the SCR_EL3 prior
to entry into the target security state. It saves the handler in
internal data structures. An API is provided to retrieve the handler
when an interrupt of a particular type is asserted. Registration is
expected to be done once by the primary CPU. The same handler and
routing model is used for all CPUs.
Support for EL3 interrupts will be added to the framework in the
future. A makefile flag has been added to allow the FVP port choose
between ARM GIC v2 and v3 support in EL3. The latter version is
currently unsupported.
A framework for handling interrupts in BL3-1 will be introduced in
subsequent patches. The default routing model in the absence of any
handlers expects no interrupts to be routed to EL3.

This patch adds an API to write to any bit in the SCR_EL3 member of
the 'cpu_context' structure of the current CPU for a specified
security state. This API will be used in subsequent patches which
introduce interrupt management in EL3 to specify the interrupt routing
model when execution is not in EL3.
It also renames the cm_set_el3_elr() function to cm_set_elr_el3()
which is more in line with the system register name being targeted by
the API.

This change adds optional reset vector support to BL3-1
which means BL3-1 entry point can detect cold/warm boot,
initialise primary cpu, set up cci and mail box.
When using BL3-1 as a reset vector it is assumed that
the BL3-1 platform code can determine the location of
the BL3-2 images, or load them as there are no parameters
that can be passed to BL3-1 at reset.
It also fixes the incorrect initialisation of mailbox
registers on the FVP platform

to determine the memory extents in these images and provide
it to the BL3-x images.
2. Remove meminfo_t and bl31_plat_params_t from all FVP BL3-x

This patch reworks the handover interface from: BL1 to BL2 and
BL2 to BL3-1. It removes the raise_el(), change_el(), drop_el()
and run_image() functions as they catered for code paths that were
never exercised.
BL1 calls bl1_run_bl2() to jump into BL2 instead of doing the same
by calling run_image(). Similarly, BL2 issues the SMC to transfer
execution to BL3-1 through BL1 directly. Only x0 and x1 are used
to pass arguments to BL31. These arguments and parameters for
running BL3-1 are passed through a reference to a
'el_change_info_t' structure. They were being passed value in
general purpose registers earlier.

At present, non-secure timer register contents are saved and restored as
part of world switch by BL3-1. This effectively means that the
non-secure timer stops, and non-secure timer interrupts are prevented
from asserting until BL3-1 switches back, introducing latency for
non-secure services. Often, secure world might depend on alternate
sources for secure interrupts (secure timer or platform timer) instead
of non-secure timers, in which case this save and restore is
unnecessary.
This patch introduces a boolean build-time configuration NS_TIMER_SWITCH
to choose whether or not to save and restore non-secure timer registers
upon world switch. The default choice is made not to save and restore
them.

This patch implements the register reporting when unhandled exceptions are
taken in BL3-1. Unhandled exceptions will result in a dump of registers
to the console, before halting execution by that CPU. The Crash Stack,
previously called the Exception Stack, is used for this activity.
This stack is used to preserve the CPU context and runtime stack
contents for debugging and analysis.
This also introduces the per_cpu_ptr_cache, referenced by tpidr_el3,
to provide easy access to some of BL3-1 per-cpu data structures.
Initially, this is used to provide a pointer to the Crash stack.
panic() now prints the the error file and line number in Debug mode
and prints the PC value in release mode.
The Exception Stack is renamed to Crash Stack with this patch.
The original intention of exception stack is no longer valid
since we intend to support several valid exceptions like IRQ
and FIQ in the trusted firmware context. This stack is now
utilized for dumping and reporting the system state when a
crash happens and hence the rename.

Previously exception handlers in BL3-1, X19-X29 were not saved
and restored on every SMC/trap into EL3. Instead these registers
were 'saved as needed' as a side effect of the A64 ABI used by the C
compiler.
That approach failed when world switching but was not visible
with the TSP/TSPD code because the TSP is 64-bit, did not
clobber these registers when running and did not support pre-emption
by normal world interrupts. These scenarios showed
that the values in these registers can be passed through a world
switch, which broke the normal and trusted world assumptions
about these registers being preserved.
The Ideal solution saves and restores these registers when a
world switch occurs - but that type of implementation is more complex.
So this patch always saves and restores these registers on entry and
exit of EL3.

Instead of using the system register helper functions to read
or write system registers, assembler coded functions should
use MRS/MSR instructions. This results in faster and more
compact code.

The BL images share common stack management code which provides
one coherent and one cacheable stack for every CPU. BL1 and BL2
just execute on the primary CPU during boot and do not require

This patch also provides macros for declaring stacks and
calculating stack base addresses to improve consistency where

BL3-1 architecture setup code programs the system counter frequency
into the CNTFRQ_EL0 register. This frequency is defined by the
platform, though. This patch introduces a new platform hook that
the architecture setup code can call to retrieve this information.
In the ARM FVP port, this returns the first entry of the frequency
modes table from the memory mapped generic timer.
All system counter setup code has been removed from BL1 as some
platforms may not have initialized the system counters at this stage.
The platform specific settings done exclusively in BL1 have been moved
to BL3-1. In the ARM FVP port, this consists in enabling and
initializing the System level generic timer. Also, the frequency change
request in the counter control register has been set to 0 to make it
explicit it's using the base frequency. The CNTCR_FCREQ() macro has been
fixed in this context to give an entry number rather than a bitmask.
In future, when support for firmware update is implemented, there
is a case where BL1 platform specific code will need to program
the counter frequency. This should be implemented at that time.

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

This patch adds the following support to the BL3-1 stage:
1. BL3-1 allows runtime services to specify and determine the security
state of the next image after BL3-1. This has been done by adding
the `bl31_set_next_image_type()` & `bl31_get_next_image_type()`
apis. The default security state is non-secure. The platform api
`bl31_get_next_image_info()` has been modified to let the platform
decide which is the next image in the desired security state.
2. BL3-1 exports the `bl31_prepare_next_image_entry()` function to
program entry into the target security state. It uses the apis
introduced in 1. to do so.
3. BL3-1 reads the information populated by BL2 about the BL3-2 image
into its internal data structures.
4. BL3-1 introduces a weakly defined reference `bl32_init()` to allow
initialisation of a BL3-2 image. A runtime service like the Secure
payload dispatcher will define this function if present.

This patch reworks BL2 to BL3-1 hand over interface by introducing a

that needs to be passed from BL2 to BL3-1.
- The extents of secure memory available to BL3-1
- The extents of memory available to BL3-2 (not yet implemented) and
BL3-3
- Information to execute BL3-2 (not yet implemented) and BL3-3 images
This patch also introduces a new platform API (bl2_get_bl31_args_ptr)
that needs to be implemented by the platform code to export reference to
bl31_args structure which has been allocated in platform-defined memory.
The platform will initialize the extents of memory available to BL3-3
during early platform setup in bl31_args structure. This obviates the
need for bl2_get_ns_mem_layout platform API.
BL2 calls the bl2_get_bl31_args_ptr function to get a reference to
bl31_args structure. It uses the 'bl33_meminfo' field of this structure
to load the BL3-3 image. It sets the entry point information for the
BL3-3 image in the 'bl33_image_info' field of this structure. The
reference to this structure is passed to the BL3-1 image.

This patch introduces the reworked exception handling logic which lays
the foundation for accessing runtime services in later patches. The
type of an exception has a greater say in the way it is
handled. SP_EL3 is used as the stack pointer for:
1. Determining the type of exception and handling the unexpected ones
on the exception stack
2. Saving and restoring the essential general purpose and system
register state after exception entry and prior to exception exit.
SP_EL0 is used as the stack pointer for handling runtime service
requests e.g. SMCs. A new structure for preserving general purpose
register state has been added to the 'cpu_context' structure. All
assembler ensures that it does not use callee saved registers
(x19-x29). The C runtime preserves them across functions calls. Hence
EL3 code does not have to save and restore them explicitly.
Since the exception handling framework has undergone substantial change,
the changes have been kept in separate files to aid readability. These
files will replace the existing ones in subsequent patches.

This patch adds support for a cpu context management library. This
library will be used to:
1. Share pointers to secure and non-secure state cpu contexts between
runtime services e.g. PSCI and Secure Payload Dispatcher services
2. Set SP_EL3 to a context structure which will be used for
programming an ERET into a lower EL
3. Provide wrapper functions to save and restore EL3 & EL1
state. These functions will in turn use the helper functions in
context.S

This patch introduces functions for saving and restoring shared system
registers between secure and non-secure EL1 exception levels, VFP
registers and essential EL3 system register and other state. It also
defines the 'cpu_context' data structure which will used for saving and
restoring execution context for a given security state. These functions
will allow runtime services like PSCI and Secure payload dispatcher to
implement logic for switching between the secure and non-secure states.
The save and restore functions follow AArch64 PCS and only use
caller-saved temporary registers.

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.

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.

Tidy up the spacing of variable definitions within the makefiles to make
them more consistent, easier to read and amend.

Ctags seem to have a problem with generating tags for assembler symbols
when a comment immediately follows an assembly label.
This patch inserts a single space character between the label
definition and the following comments to help ctags.
The patch is generated by the command:
git ls-files -- \*.S | xargs sed -i 's/^\([^:]\+\):;/\1: ;/1'

The GICv3 distributor can have more ports than CPUs are available in
the system. Probe all re-distributors and use the matching affinity
levels as specified by each core and re-distributor to decide which
re-distributor to use with which CPU core.
If a core cannot be matched with a re-distributor, the core panics and
is placed in an endless loop.

Traps when accessing architectural features are disabled by clearing bits
in CPTR_EL3 during early boot, including accesses to floating point
registers. The value of this register was previously undetermined, causing
unwanted traps to EL3. Future EL3 code (for example, context save/restore
code) may use floating point registers, although they are not used by current
code.
Also, the '-mgeneral-regs-only' flag is enabled in the GCC settings to
prevent generation of code that uses floating point registers.

GIC setup code which used to be in bl31_plat_setup.c is now in fvp_gic.c
to simplify future changes to other bootloader stages. This patch moves
code from bl31_plat_setup.c to fvp_gic.c, simplifies the include file
list for bl31_plat_setup.c, moves GIC declarations from the bl31.h header
file into the platform.h, and reworks files according to coding style
guide.

- This change is split into two separate patches in order to
simplify the history as interpreted by 'git'. The split is
between the move/rename and addition of new files.
- Remove dependency on toolchain C library headers and functions in
order to ensure behavioural compatibility between toolchains.
- Use FreeBSD as reference for C library implementation.
- Do not let GCC use default library include paths.
- Remove unused definitions in modified headers and implementations.
- Move C library files to 'lib/stdlib' and 'include/stdlib'.
- Break std.c functions out into separate files.

ns_entry_info used to be a per-cpu array. This is a waste of space
because it is only accessed by the primary CPU on the cold boot path.
This patch reduces ns_entry_info to a single-cpu area.

The runtime exception handling assembler code used magic numbers for
saving and restoring the general purpose register context on stack
memory. The memory is interpreted as a 'gp_regs' structure and the
magic numbers are offsets to members of this structure. This patch
replaces the magic number offsets with constants. It also adds compile
time assertions to prevent an incorrect assembler view of this
structure.

- Check at link-time that bootloader images will fit in memory
at run time and that they won't overlap each other.
- Remove text and rodata orphan sections.
- Define new linker symbols to remove the need for platform setup
code to know the order of sections.
- Reduce the size of the raw binary images by cutting some sections
out of the disk image and allocating them at load time, whenever
possible.
- Rework alignment constraints on sections.
- Remove unused linker symbols.
- Homogenize linker symbols names across all BLs.
- Add some comments in the linker scripts.

Any asynchronous exception caused by the firmware should be handled
in the firmware itself. For this reason, unmask SError exceptions
(and Debug ones as well) on all boot paths. Also route external
abort and SError interrupts to EL3, otherwise they will target EL1.
