In the situation that EL1 is selected as the exception level for the
next image upon BL31 exit for a processor that supports EL2, the
context management code must configure all essential EL2 register
state to ensure correct execution of EL1.
VTTBR_EL2 should be part of this set of EL2 registers because:
- The ARMv8-A architecture does not define a reset value for this
register.
- Cache maintenance operations depend on VTTBR_EL2.VMID even when
non-secure EL1&0 stage 2 address translation are disabled.
This patch initializes the VTTBR_EL2 register to 0 when bypassing EL2
to address this issue. Note that this bug has not yet manifested
itself on FVP or Juno because VTTBR_EL2.VMID resets to 0 on the
Cortex-A53 and Cortex-A57.

Suport for ARM GIC v2.0 and v3.0 drivers has been reworked to create three
separate drivers instead of providing a single driver that can work on both
versions of the GIC architecture. These drivers correspond to the following
software use cases:
1. A GICv2 only driver that can run only on ARM GIC v2.0 implementations
e.g. GIC-400
2. A GICv3 only driver that can run only on ARM GIC v3.0 implementations
e.g. GIC-500 in a mode where all interrupt regimes use GICv3 features
3. A deprecated GICv3 driver that operates in legacy mode. This driver can
operate only in the GICv2 mode in the secure world. On a GICv3 system, this
driver allows normal world to run in either GICv3 mode (asymmetric mode)
or in the GICv2 mode. Both modes of operation are deprecated on GICv3
systems.
ARM platforms implement both versions of the GIC architecture. This patch adds a
layer of abstraction to help ARM platform ports chose the right GIC driver and
corresponding platform support. This is as described below:
1. A set of ARM common functions have been introduced to initialise the GIC and
the driver during cold and warm boot. These functions are prefixed as
"plat_arm_gic_". Weak definitions of these functions have been provided for
each type of driver.
2. Each platform includes the sources that implement the right functions
directly into the its makefile. The FVP can be instantiated with different
versions of the GIC architecture. It uses the FVP_USE_GIC_DRIVER build option
to specify which of the three drivers should be included in the build.
3. A list of secure interrupts has to be provided to initialise each of the
three GIC drivers. For GIC v3.0 the interrupt ids have to be further
categorised as Group 0 and Group 1 Secure interrupts. For GIC v2.0, the two
types are merged and treated as Group 0 interrupts.
The two lists of interrupts are exported from the platform_def.h. The lists
are constructed by adding a list of board specific interrupt ids to a list of
ids common to all ARM platforms and Compute sub-systems.
This patch also makes some fields of `arm_config` data structure in FVP redundant
and these unused fields are removed.

This patch adds platform helpers for the new GICv2 and GICv3 drivers in
plat_gicv2.c and plat_gicv3.c. The platforms can include the appropriate
file in their build according to the GIC driver to be used. The existing
plat_gic.c is only meant for the legacy GIC driver.
In the case of ARM platforms, the major changes are as follows:
1. The crash reporting helper macro `arm_print_gic_regs` that prints the GIC CPU
interface register values has been modified to detect the type of CPU
interface being used (System register or memory mappped interface) before
using the right interface to print the registers.
2. The power management helper function that is called after a core is powered
up has been further refactored. This is to highlight that the per-cpu
distributor interface should be initialised only when the core was originally
powered down using the CPU_OFF PSCI API and not when the CPU_SUSPEND PSCI API
was used.
3. In the case of CSS platforms, the system power domain restore helper
`arm_system_pwr_domain_resume()` is now only invoked in the `suspend_finish`
handler as the system power domain is always expected to be initialized when
the `on_finish` handler is invoked.

On a GICv2 system, interrupts that should be handled in the secure world are
typically signalled as FIQs. On a GICv3 system, these interrupts are signalled
as IRQs instead. The mechanism for handling both types of interrupts is the same
in both cases. This patch enables the TSP to run on a GICv3 system by:
1. adding support for handling IRQs in the exception handling code.
2. removing use of "fiq" in the names of data structures, macros and functions.
The build option TSPD_ROUTE_IRQ_TO_EL3 is deprecated and is replaced with a
new build flag TSP_NS_INTR_ASYNC_PREEMPT. For compatibility reasons, if the
former build flag is defined, it will be used to define the value for the
new build flag. The documentation is also updated accordingly.

The TSP is expected to pass control back to EL3 if it gets preempted due to
an interrupt while handling a Standard SMC in the following scenarios:
1. An FIQ preempts Standard SMC execution and that FIQ is not a TSP Secure
timer interrupt or is preempted by a higher priority interrupt by the time
the TSP acknowledges it. In this case, the TSP issues an SMC with the ID
as `TSP_EL3_FIQ`. Currently this case is never expected to happen as only
the TSP Secure Timer is expected to generate FIQ.
2. An IRQ preempts Standard SMC execution and in this case the TSP issues
an SMC with the ID as `TSP_PREEMPTED`.
In both the cases, the TSPD hands control back to the normal world and returns
returns an error code to the normal world to indicate that the standard SMC it
had issued has been preempted but not completed.
This patch unifies the handling of these two cases in the TSPD and ensures that
the TSP only uses TSP_PREEMPTED instead of separate SMC IDs. Also instead of 2
separate error codes, SMC_PREEMPTED and TSP_EL3_FIQ, only SMC_PREEMPTED is
returned as error code back to the normal world.
Background information: On a GICv3 system, when the secure world has affinity
routing enabled, in 2. an FIQ will preempt TSP execution instead of an IRQ. The
FIQ could be a result of a Group 0 or a Group 1 NS interrupt. In both case, the
TSPD passes control back to the normal world upon receipt of the TSP_PREEMPTED
SMC. A Group 0 interrupt will immediately preempt execution to EL3 where it
will be handled. This allows for unified interrupt handling in TSP for both
GICv3 and GICv2 systems.

This patch fixes several issues with the SP804 delay timer on FVP:
* By default, the SP804 dual timer on FVP runs at 32 KHz. In order
to run the timer at 35 MHz (as specified in the FVP user manual)
the Overwrite bit in the SP810 control register must be set.
* The CLKMULT and CLKDIV definitions are mixed up:
delta(us) = delta(ticks) * T(us) = delta(ticks) / f(MHz)
From the delay function:
delta_us = (delta * ops->clk_mult) / ops->clk_div;
Matching both expressions:
1 / f(MHz) = ops->clk_mult / ops->clk_div
And consequently:
f(MHz) = ops->clk_div / ops->clk_mult
Which, for a 35 MHz timer, translates to:
ops->clk_div = 35
ops->clk_mult = 1
* The comment in the delay timer header file has been corrected:
The ratio of the multiplier and the divider is the clock period
in microseconds, not the frequency.

This patch adds watchdog support on ARM platforms (FVP and Juno).
A secure instance of SP805 is used as Trusted Watchdog. It is
entirely managed in BL1, being enabled in the early platform setup
hook and disabled in the exit hook. By default, the watchdog is
enabled in every build (even when TBB is disabled).
A new ARM platform specific build option `ARM_DISABLE_TRUSTED_WDOG`
has been introduced to allow the user to disable the watchdog at
build time. This feature may be used for testing or debugging
purposes.
Specific error handlers for Juno and FVP are also provided in this
patch. These handlers will be called after an image load or
authentication error. On FVP, the Table of Contents (ToC) in the FIP
is erased. On Juno, the corresponding error code is stored in the
V2M Non-Volatile flags register. In both cases, the CPU spins until
a watchdog reset is generated after 256 seconds (as specified in
the TBBR document).

The TZC-400 driver implementation incorrectly uses the component
ID registers to detect the TZC-400 peripheral. As all ARM
peripherals share the same component ID, it doesn't allow to
uniquely identify the TZC-400 peripheral. This patch fixes the
TZC-400 driver by relying on the `part_number_0` and
`part_number_1` fields in the `PID` registers instead.
The `tzc_read_component_id` function has been replaced by
`tzc_read_peripheral_id`, which reads the 'part_number' values
and compares them with the TZC-400 peripheral ID.
Also, it adds a debug assertion to detect when the TZC driver
initialisation function is called multiple times.

Based on SP805 Programmer's model (ARM DDI 0270B). This driver
provides three public APIs:
void sp805_start(uintptr_t base, unsigned long ticks);
void sp805_stop(uintptr_t base);
void sp805_refresh(uintptr_t base, unsigned long ticks);
Upon start, the watchdog starts counting down from the number of
ticks specified. When the count reaches 0 an interrupt is triggered.
The watchdog restarts counting down from the number of ticks
specified. If the count reaches 0 again, the system is reset. A
mechanism to handle the interrupt has not been implemented. Instead,
the API to refresh the watchdog should be used instead to prevent a
system reset.

This patch adds support for booting EL3 payloads on CSS platforms,
for example Juno. In this scenario, the Trusted Firmware follows
its normal boot flow up to the point where it would normally pass
control to the BL31 image. At this point, it jumps to the EL3
payload entry point address instead.
Before handing over to the EL3 payload, the data SCP writes for AP
at the beginning of the Trusted SRAM is restored, i.e. we zero the
first 128 bytes and restore the SCP Boot configuration. The latter
is saved before transferring the BL30 image to SCP and is restored
just after the transfer (in BL2). The goal is to make it appear that
the EL3 payload is the first piece of software to run on the target.
The BL31 entrypoint info structure is updated to make the primary
CPU jump to the EL3 payload instead of the BL31 image.
The mailbox is populated with the EL3 payload entrypoint address,
which releases the secondary CPUs out of their holding pen (if the
SCP has powered them on). The arm_program_trusted_mailbox() function
has been exported for this purpose.
The TZC-400 configuration in BL2 is simplified: it grants secure
access only to the whole DRAM. Other security initialization is
unchanged.
This alternative boot flow is disabled by default. A new build option
EL3_PAYLOAD_BASE has been introduced to enable it and provide the EL3
payload's entry point address. The build system has been modified
such that BL31 and BL33 are not compiled and/or not put in the FIP in
this case, as those images are not used in this boot flow.

not cater for legacy support of interrupts and asymmetric configurations.
The existing GIC driver has been preserved unchanged. The common code for

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 introduces a new function called 'print_entry_point_info'
that prints an entry_point_t structure for debugging purposes.
As such, it can be used to display the entry point address, SPSR and
arguments passed from a firmware image to the next one.
This function is now called in the following images transitions:
- BL1 to BL2
- BL1 to BL31
- BL31 to the next image (typically BL32 or BL33)
The following changes have been introduced:
- Fix the output format of the SPSR value : SPSR is a 32-bit value,
not a 64-bit one.
- Print all arguments values.
The entry_point_info_t structure allows to pass up to 8 arguments.
In most cases, only the first 2 arguments were printed.
print_entry_point_info() now prints all of them as 'VERBOSE'
traces.

This patch adds the capability to power down at system power domain level
on Juno via the PSCI SYSTEM SUSPEND API. The CSS power management helpers
are modified to add support for power management operations at system
power domain level. A new helper for populating `get_sys_suspend_power_state`
handler in plat_psci_ops is defined. On entering the system suspend state,
the SCP powers down the SYSTOP power domain on the SoC and puts the memory
into retention mode. On wakeup from the power down, the system components
on the CSS will be reinitialized by the platform layer and the PSCI client
is responsible for restoring the context of these system components.
According to PSCI Specification, interrupts targeted to cores in PSCI CPU
SUSPEND should be able to resume it. On Juno, when the system power domain
is suspended, the GIC is also powered down. The SCP resumes the final core
to be suspend when an external wake-up event is received. But the other
cores cannot be woken up by a targeted interrupt, because GIC doesn't
forward these interrupts to the SCP. Due to this hardware limitation,
we down-grade PSCI CPU SUSPEND requests targeted to the system power domain
level to cluster power domain level in `juno_validate_power_state()`
and the CSS default `plat_arm_psci_ops` is overridden in juno_pm.c.
A system power domain resume helper `arm_system_pwr_domain_resume()` is
defined for ARM standard platforms which resumes/re-initializes the
system components on wakeup from system suspend. The security setup also
needs to be done on resume from system suspend, which means
`plat_arm_security_setup()` must now be included in the BL3-1 image in
addition to previous BL images if system suspend need to be supported.

`arm_pm_idle_states[]` are modified to support the system power domain
at level 2. With this patch, even though the power management operations
involving the system power domain will not return any error, the platform
layer will silently ignore any operations to the power domain. The actual
power management support for the system power domain will be added later.

This patch adds an optional API to the platform port:
void plat_error_handler(int err) __dead2;
The platform error handler is called when there is a specific error
condition after which Trusted Firmware cannot continue. While panic()
simply prints the crash report (if enabled) and spins, the platform
error handler can be used to hand control over to the platform port
so it can perform specific bookeeping or post-error actions (for
example, reset the system). This function must not return.
The parameter indicates the type of error using standard codes from
errno.h. Possible errors reported by the generic code are:
-EAUTH : a certificate or image could not be authenticated
(when Trusted Board Boot is enabled)
-ENOENT : the requested image or certificate could not be found
or an IO error was detected
-ENOMEM : resources exhausted. Trusted Firmware does not use
dynamic memory, so this error is usually an indication
of an incorrect array size
A default weak implementation of this function has been provided.
It simply implements an infinite loop.

This patch does the following reorganization to psci power management (PM)
handler setup for ARM standard platform ports :
1. The mailbox programming required during `plat_setup_psci_ops()` is identical
for all ARM platforms. Hence the implementation of this API is now moved
to the common `arm_pm.c` file. Each ARM platform now must define the
PLAT_ARM_TRUSTED_MAILBOX_BASE macro, which in current platforms is the same
as ARM_SHARED_RAM_BASE.
2. The PSCI PM handler callback structure, `plat_psci_ops`, must now be
exported via `plat_arm_psci_pm_ops`. This allows the common implementation
of `plat_setup_psci_ops()` to return a platform specific `plat_psci_ops`.
In the case of CSS platforms, a default weak implementation of the same is
provided in `css_pm.c` which can be overridden by each CSS platform.
3. For CSS platforms, the PSCI PM handlers defined in `css_pm.c` are now
made library functions and a new header file `css_pm.h` is added to export
these generic PM handlers. This allows the platform to reuse the
adequate CSS PM handlers and redefine others which need to be customized
when overriding the default `plat_arm_psci_pm_ops` in `css_pm.c`.

The CASSERT() macro introduces a typedef for the sole purpose of
triggering a compilation error if the condition to check is false.
This typedef is not used afterwards. As a consequence, when the
CASSERT() macro is called from withing a function block, the compiler
complains and outputs the following error message:
error: typedef 'msg' locally defined but not used [-Werror=unused-local-typedefs]
This patch adds the "unused" attribute for the aforementioned
typedef. This silences the compiler warning and thus makes the
CASSERT() macro callable from within function blocks as well.

context before passing the PM event via register 'x0'. On completion
of the PM event, TLK sends a completion SMC and TLKD then moves on
with the PM process.

The generic delay timer driver expects a pointer to a timer_ops_t
structure containing the specific timer driver information. It
doesn't make a copy of the structure, instead it just keeps the
pointer. Therefore, this pointer must remain valid over time.
The SP804 driver doesn't satisfy this requirement. The
sp804_timer_init() macro creates a temporary instanciation of the
timer_ops_t structure on the fly and passes it to the generic
delay timer. When this temporary instanciation gets deallocated,
the generic delay timer is left with a pointer to invalid data.
This patch fixes this bug by statically allocating the SP804
timer_ops_t structure.

On the ARMv8 architecture, cache maintenance operations by set/way on the last
level of integrated cache do not affect the system cache. This means that such a
flush or clean operation could result in the data being pushed out to the system
cache rather than main memory. Another CPU could access this data before it
enables its data cache or MMU. Such accesses could be serviced from the main
memory instead of the system cache. If the data in the sysem cache has not yet
been flushed or evicted to main memory then there could be a loss of
coherency. The only mechanism to guarantee that the main memory will be updated
is to use cache maintenance operations to the PoC by MVA(See section D3.4.11
(System level caches) of ARMv8-A Reference Manual (Issue A.g/ARM DDI0487A.G).
This patch removes the reliance of Trusted Firmware on the flush by set/way
operation to ensure visibility of data in the main memory. Cache maintenance
operations by MVA are now used instead. The following are the broad category of
changes:
1. The RW areas of BL2/BL31/BL32 are invalidated by MVA before the C runtime is
initialised. This ensures that any stale cache lines at any level of cache
are removed.
2. Updates to global data in runtime firmware (BL31) by the primary CPU are made
visible to secondary CPUs using a cache clean operation by MVA.
3. Cache maintenance by set/way operations are only used prior to power down.
NOTE: NON-UPSTREAM TRUSTED FIRMWARE CODE SHOULD MAKE EQUIVALENT CHANGES IN
ORDER TO FUNCTION CORRECTLY ON PLATFORMS WITH SUPPORT FOR SYSTEM CACHES.

This patch updates ARM platform ports to use the new unified bakery locks
API. The caller does not have to use a different bakery lock API depending upon
the value of the USE_COHERENT_MEM build option.
NOTE: THIS PATCH CAN BE USED AS A REFERENCE TO UPDATE OTHER PLATFORM PORTS.
