The system registers that are saved and restored in CPU context include
AArch32 systems registers like SPSR_ABT, SPSR_UND, SPSR_IRQ, SPSR_FIQ,
DACR32_EL2, IFSR32_EL2 and FPEXC32_EL2. Accessing these registers on an
AArch64-only (i.e. on hardware that does not implement AArch32, or at
least not at EL1 and higher ELs) platform leads to an exception. This patch
introduces the build option `CTX_INCLUDE_AARCH32_REGS` to specify whether to
include these AArch32 systems registers in the cpu context or not. By default
this build option is set to 1 to ensure compatibility. AArch64-only platforms
must set it to 0. A runtime check is added in BL1 and BL31 cold boot path to
verify this.

To get round problems encountered when building in a DOS build
environment the generation of the .o file containing build identifier
strings is modified.
The problems encounterred were:
1. DOS echo doesn't strip ' characters from the output text.
2. git is not available from CMD.EXE so the BUILD_STRING value needs
some other origin.
A BUILD_STRING value of "development build" is used for now.
MAKE_BUILD_STRINGS is used to customise build string generation in a DOS
environment. This variable is not defined in the UNIX build environment
make file helper, and so the existing build string generation behaviour
is retained in these build environments.
NOTE: This commit completes a cumulative series aimed at improving
build portability across development environments.
This enables the build to run on several new build environments,
if the relevant tools are available.
At this point the build is tested on Windows 7 Enterprise SP1,
using CMD.EXE, Cygwin and Msys (MinGW),as well as a native
Linux envionment". The Windows platform builds used
aarch64-none-elf-gcc.exe 4.9.1. CMD.EXE and Msys used Gnu
Make 3.81, cygwin used Gnu Make 4.1.

This patch adds support for non-volatile counter authentication to
the Authentication Module. This method consists of matching the
counter values provided in the certificates with the ones stored
in the platform. If the value from the certificate is lower than
the platform, the boot process is aborted. This mechanism protects
the system against rollback.
The TBBR CoT has been updated to include this method as part of the
authentication process. Two counters are used: one for the trusted
world images and another for the non trusted world images.
** NEW PLATFORM APIs (mandatory when TBB is enabled) **
int plat_get_nv_ctr(void *cookie, unsigned int *nv_ctr);
This API returns the non-volatile counter value stored
in the platform. The cookie in the first argument may be
used to select the counter in case the platform provides
more than one (i.e. TBSA compliant platforms must provide
trusted and non-trusted counters). This cookie is specified
in the CoT.
int plat_set_nv_ctr(void *cookie, unsigned int nv_ctr);
This API sets a new counter value. The cookie may be
used to select the counter to be updated.
An implementation of these new APIs for ARM platforms is also
provided. The values are obtained from the Trusted Non-Volatile
Counters peripheral. The cookie is used to pass the extension OID.
This OID may be interpreted by the platform to know which counter
must return. On Juno, The trusted and non-trusted counter values
have been tied to 31 and 223, respectively, and cannot be modified.

This patch adds an option to the ARM common platforms to load BL31 in the
TZC secured DRAM instead of the default secure SRAM.
To enable this feature, set `ARM_BL31_IN_DRAM` to 1 in build options.
If TSP is present, then setting this option also sets the TSP location
to DRAM and ignores the `ARM_TSP_RAM_LOCATION` build flag.
To use this feature, BL2 platform code must map in the DRAM used by
BL31. The macro ARM_MAP_BL31_SEC_DRAM is provided for this purpose.
Currently, only the FVP BL2 platform code maps in this DRAM.

Asynchronous abort exceptions generated by the platform during cold boot are
not taken in EL3 unless SCR_EL3.EA is set.
Therefore EA bit is set along with RES1 bits in early BL1 and BL31 architecture
initialisation. Further write accesses to SCR_EL3 preserve these bits during
cold boot.
A build flag controls SCR_EL3.EA value to keep asynchronous abort exceptions
being trapped by EL3 after cold boot or not.
For further reference SError Interrupts are also known as asynchronous external
aborts.
On Cortex-A53 revisions below r0p2, asynchronous abort exceptions are taken in
EL3 whatever the SCR_EL3.EA value is.

The Firmware Design document is meant to provide a general overview
of the Trusted Firmware code. Although it is useful to provide some
guidance around the responsibilities of the platform layer, it should
not provide too much platform specific implementation details. Right
now, some sections are too tied to the implementation on ARM
platforms. This makes the Firmware Design document harder to digest.
This patch simplifies this aspect of the Firmware Design document.
The sections relating the platform initialisations performed by the
different BL stages have been simplified and the extra details about
the ARM platforms implementation have been moved to the Porting Guide
when appropriate.
This patch also provides various documentation fixes and additions
in the Firmware Design and Platform Porting Guide. In particular:
- Update list of SMCs supported by BL1.
- Remove MMU setup from architectural inits, as it is actually
performed by platform code.
- Similarly, move runtime services initialisation, BL2 image
initialization and BL33 execution out of the platform
initialisation paragraph.
- List SError interrupt unmasking as part of BL1 architectural
initialization.
- Mention Trusted Watchdog enabling in BL1 on ARM platforms.
- Fix order of steps in "BL2 image load and execution" section.
- Refresh section about GICv3/GICv2 drivers initialisation on
ARM platforms.

The previous reset code in BL1 performed the following steps in
order:
1. Warm/Cold boot detection.
If it's a warm boot, jump to warm boot entrypoint.
2. Primary/Secondary CPU detection.
If it's a secondary CPU, jump to plat_secondary_cold_boot_setup(),
which doesn't return.
3. CPU initialisations (cache, TLB...).
4. Memory and C runtime initialization.
For a secondary CPU, steps 3 and 4 are never reached. This shouldn't
be a problem in most cases, since current implementations of
plat_secondary_cold_boot_setup() either panic or power down the
secondary CPUs.
The main concern is the lack of secondary CPU initialization when
bare metal EL3 payloads are used in case they don't take care of this
initialisation themselves.
This patch moves the detection of primary/secondary CPU after step 3
so that the CPU initialisations are performed per-CPU, while the
memory and the C runtime initialisation are only performed on the
primary CPU. The diagrams used in the ARM Trusted Firmware Reset
Design documentation file have been updated to reflect the new boot
flow.
Platforms ports might be affected by this patch depending on the
behaviour of plat_secondary_cold_boot_setup(), as the state of the
platform when entering this function will be different.

The common topology description helper funtions and macros for
ARM Standard platforms assumed a dual cluster system. This is not
flexible enough to scale to multi cluster platforms. This patch does
the following changes for more flexibility in defining topology:
1. The `plat_get_power_domain_tree_desc()` definition is moved from
`arm_topology.c` to platform specific files, that is `fvp_topology.c`
and `juno_topology.c`. Similarly the common definition of the porting
macro `PLATFORM_CORE_COUNT` in `arm_def.h` is moved to platform
specific `platform_def.h` header.
2. The ARM common layer porting macros which were dual cluster specific
are now removed and a new macro PLAT_ARM_CLUSTER_COUNT is introduced
which must be defined by each ARM standard platform.
3. A new mandatory ARM common layer porting API
`plat_arm_get_cluster_core_count()` is introduced to enable the common
implementation of `arm_check_mpidr()` to validate MPIDR.
4. For the FVP platforms, a new build option `FVP_NUM_CLUSTERS` has been
introduced which allows the user to specify the cluster count to be
used to build the topology tree within Trusted Firmare. This enables
Trusted Firmware to be built for multi cluster FVP models.

Current code mandates loading of SCP_BL2/SCP_BL2U images for all

2. Defines the base addresses of these images so that AP loads

The LDNP/STNP instructions as implemented on Cortex-A53 and
Cortex-A57 do not behave in a way most programmers expect, and will
most probably result in a significant speed degradation to any code
that employs them. The ARMv8-A architecture (see Document ARM DDI

and treat LDNP/STNP as LDP/STP instead.

been updated to 'mbed TLS'.
User guide updated to use mbed TLS 2.2.0.
NOTE: moving up to mbed TLS 2.x from 1.3.x is not backward compatible.
Applying this patch will require an mbed TLS 2.x release to be used.

The Server Base System Architecture document (ARM-DEN-0029)
specifies a generic UART device. The programmer's view of this
generic UART is a subset of the ARM PL011 UART. However, the
current PL011 driver in Trusted Firmware uses some features
that are outside the generic UART specification.
This patch modifies the PL011 driver to exclude features outside
the SBSA generic UART specification by setting the boolean build
option 'PL011_GENERIC_UART=1'. Default value is 0 (use full
PL011 features).

This patch overrides the default weak definition of
`bl31_plat_runtime_setup()` for ARM Standard platforms to
specify a BL31 runtime console. ARM Standard platforms are
now expected to define `PLAT_ARM_BL31_RUN_UART_BASE` and
`PLAT_ARM_BL31_RUN_UART_CLK_IN_HZ` macros which is required
by `arm_bl31_plat_runtime_setup()` to initialize the runtime
console.
The system suspend resume helper `arm_system_pwr_domain_resume()`
is fixed to initialize the runtime console rather than the boot
console on resumption from system suspend.

It is not ideal for BL31 to continue to use boot console at
runtime which could be potentially uninitialized. This patch
introduces a new optional platform porting API
`bl31_plat_runtime_setup()` which allows the platform to perform
any BL31 runtime setup just prior to BL31 exit during cold boot.
The default weak implementation of this function will invoke
`console_uninit()` which will suppress any BL31 runtime logs.
On the ARM Standard platforms, there is an anomaly that
the boot console will be reinitialized on resumption from
system suspend in `arm_system_pwr_domain_resume()`. This
will be resolved in the following patch.
NOTE: The default weak definition of `bl31_plat_runtime_setup()`
disables the BL31 console. To print the BL31 runtime
messages, platforms must override this API and initialize a
runtime console.

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.

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).

This patch introduces a new build option named COLD_BOOT_SINGLE_CPU,
which allows platforms that only release a single CPU out of reset to
slightly optimise their cold boot code, both in terms of code size
and performance.
COLD_BOOT_SINGLE_CPU defaults to 0, which assumes that the platform
may release several CPUs out of reset. In this case, the cold reset
code needs to coordinate all CPUs via the usual primary/secondary
CPU distinction.
If a platform guarantees that only a single CPU will ever be released
out of reset, there is no need to arbitrate execution ; the notion of
primary and secondary CPUs itself no longer exists. Such platforms
may set COLD_BOOT_SINGLE_CPU to 1 in order to compile out the
primary/secondary CPU identification in the cold reset code.
All ARM standard platforms can release several CPUs out of reset
so they use COLD_BOOT_SINGLE_CPU=0. However, on CSS platforms like
Juno, bringing up more than one CPU at reset should only be attempted
when booting an EL3 payload, as it is not fully supported in the
normal boot flow.
For platforms using COLD_BOOT_SINGLE_CPU=1, the following 2 platform
APIs become optional:
- plat_secondary_cold_boot_setup();
- plat_is_my_cpu_primary().
The Porting Guide has been updated to reflect that.
User Guide updated as well.

Normally, in the FVP port, secondary CPUs are immediately powered
down if they are powered on at reset. However, when booting an EL3
payload, we need to keep them powered on as the requirement is for
all CPUs to enter the EL3 payload image. This patch puts them in a
holding pen instead of powering them off.
Change-Id: I6526a88b907a0ddb820bead72f1d350a99b1692c
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.

This patch modifies the prototype of the bl1_plat_prepare_exit()
platform API to pass the address of the entry point info structure
received from BL2. The structure contains information that can be
useful, depending on the kind of clean up or bookkeeping operations

The weak implementation of this function ignores this argument to
preserve platform backwards compatibility.

This patch introduces a new build flag, SPIN_ON_BL1_EXIT, which
puts an infinite loop in BL1. It is intended to help debugging
the post-BL2 phase of the Trusted Firmware by stopping execution
in BL1 just before handing over to BL31. At this point, the
developer may take control of the target using a debugger.
This feature is disabled by default and can be enabled by
rebuilding BL1 with SPIN_ON_BL1_EXIT=1.

The IMF_READ_INTERRUPT_ID build option enables a feature where the interrupt
ID of the highest priority pending interrupt is passed as a parameter to the
interrupt handler registered for that type of interrupt. This additional read
of highest pending interrupt id from GIC is problematic as it is possible that
the original interrupt may get deasserted and another interrupt of different
type maybe become the highest pending interrupt. Hence it is safer to prevent
such behaviour by removing the IMF_READ_INTERRUPT_ID build option.
The `id` parameter of the interrupt handler `interrupt_type_handler_t` is
now made a reserved parameter with this patch. It will always contain
INTR_ID_UNAVAILABLE.

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 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 is a complete rework of the main Makefile. Functionality
remains the same but the code has been reorganized in sections in
order to improve readability and facilitate adding future extensions.
A new file 'build_macros.mk' has been created and will contain common
definitions (variables, macros, etc) that may be used from the main
Makefile and other platform specific makefiles.
A new macro 'FIP_ADD_IMG' has been introduced and it will allow the
platform to specify binary images and the necessary checks for a
successful build. Platforms that require a BL30 image no longer need
to specify the NEED_BL30 option. The main Makefile is now completely
unaware of additional images not built as part of Trusted Firmware,
like BL30. It is the platform responsibility to specify images using
the macro 'FIP_ADD_IMG'. Juno uses this macro to include the BL30
image in the build.
BL33 image is specified in the main Makefile to preserve backward
compatibility with the NEED_BL33 option. Otherwise, platform ports
that rely on the definition of NEED_BL33 might break.
All Trusted Board Boot related definitions have been moved to a
separate file 'tbbr_tools.mk'. The main Makefile will include this
file unless the platform indicates otherwise by setting the variable
'INCLUDE_TBBR_MK := 0' in the corresponding platform.mk file. This
will keep backward compatibility but ideally each platform should
include the corresponding TBB .mk file in platform.mk.

When a platform port does not define PLAT_PERCPU_BAKERY_LOCK_SIZE, the total
memory that should be allocated per-cpu to accommodate all bakery locks is
calculated by the linker in bl31.ld.S. The linker stores this value in the
__PERCPU_BAKERY_LOCK_SIZE__ linker symbol. The runtime value of this symbol is
different from the link time value as the symbol is relocated into the current
section (.bss). This patch fixes this issue by marking the symbol as ABSOLUTE
which allows it to retain its correct value even at runtime.
The description of PLAT_PERCPU_BAKERY_LOCK_SIZE in the porting-guide.md has been
made clearer as well.

This patch unifies the bakery lock api's across coherent and normal
memory implementation of locks by using same data type `bakery_lock_t`
and similar arguments to functions.
A separate section `bakery_lock` has been created and used to allocate
memory for bakery locks using `DEFINE_BAKERY_LOCK`. When locks are
allocated in normal memory, each lock for a core has to spread
across multiple cache lines. By using the total size allocated in a
separate cache line for a single core at compile time, the memory for
other core locks is allocated at link time by multiplying the single
core locks size with (PLATFORM_CORE_COUNT - 1). The normal memory lock
algorithm now uses lock address instead of the `id` in the per_cpu_data.
For locks allocated in coherent memory, it moves locks from
tzfw_coherent_memory to bakery_lock section.
The bakery locks are allocated as part of bss or in coherent memory
depending on usage of coherent memory. Both these regions are
initialised to zero as part of run_time_init before locks are used.
Hence, bakery_lock_init() is made an empty function as the lock memory
is already initialised to zero.
The above design lead to the removal of psci bakery locks from
non_cpu_power_pd_node to psci_locks.
NOTE: THE BAKERY LOCK API WHEN USE_COHERENT_MEM IS NOT SET HAS CHANGED.
THIS IS A BREAKING CHANGE FOR ALL PLATFORM PORTS THAT ALLOCATE BAKERY
LOCKS IN NORMAL MEMORY.

Since there is a unique warm reset entry point, the FVP and Juno

This patch adds support to the Juno and FVP ports for composite power states
with both the original and extended state-id power-state formats. Both the
platform ports use the recommended state-id encoding as specified in
Section 6.5 of the PSCI specification (ARM DEN 0022C). The platform build flag
ARM_RECOM_STATE_ID_ENC is used to include this support.
By default, to maintain backwards compatibility, the original power state
parameter format is used and the state-id field is expected to be zero.

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 state-id field in the power-state parameter of a CPU_SUSPEND call can be
used to describe composite power states specific to a platform. The current PSCI
implementation does not interpret the state-id field. It relies on the target
power level and the state type fields in the power-state parameter to perform
state coordination and power management operations. The framework introduced
in this patch allows the PSCI implementation to intepret generic global states
like RUN, RETENTION or OFF from the State-ID to make global state coordination
decisions and reduce the complexity of platform ports. It adds support to
involve the platform in state coordination which facilitates the use of
composite power states and improves the support for entering standby states
at multiple power domains.
The patch also includes support for extended state-id format for the power
state parameter as specified by PSCIv1.0.
The PSCI implementation now defines a generic representation of the power-state
parameter. It depends on the platform port to convert the power-state parameter
(possibly encoding a composite power state) passed in a CPU_SUSPEND call to this
representation via the `validate_power_state()` plat_psci_ops handler. It is an
array where each index corresponds to a power level. Each entry contains the
local power state the power domain at that power level could enter.
The meaning of the local power state values is platform defined, and may vary
between levels in a single platform. The PSCI implementation constrains the
values only so that it can classify the state as RUN, RETENTION or OFF as
required by the specification:
* zero means RUN
* all OFF state values at all levels must be higher than all RETENTION
state values at all levels
* the platform provides PLAT_MAX_RET_STATE and PLAT_MAX_OFF_STATE values
to the framework
The platform also must define the macros PLAT_MAX_RET_STATE and
PLAT_MAX_OFF_STATE which lets the PSCI implementation find out which power
domains have been requested to enter a retention or power down state. The PSCI
implementation does not interpret the local power states defined by the
platform. The only constraint is that the PLAT_MAX_RET_STATE <
PLAT_MAX_OFF_STATE.
For a power domain tree, the generic implementation maintains an array of local
power states. These are the states requested for each power domain by all the
cores contained within the domain. During a request to place multiple power
domains in a low power state, the platform is passed an array of requested
power-states for each power domain through the plat_get_target_pwr_state()
API. It coordinates amongst these states to determine a target local power
state for the power domain. A default weak implementation of this API is
provided in the platform layer which returns the minimum of the requested
power-states back to the PSCI state coordination.
Finally, the plat_psci_ops power management handlers are passed the target
local power states for each affected power domain using the generic
representation described above. The platform executes operations specific to
these target states.
The platform power management handler for placing a power domain in a standby
state (plat_pm_ops_t.pwr_domain_standby()) is now only used as a fast path for
placing a core power domain into a standby or retention state should now be
used to only place the core power domain in a standby or retention state.
The extended state-id power state format can be enabled by setting the
build flag PSCI_EXTENDED_STATE_ID=1 and it is disabled by default.

This patch removes the assumption in the current PSCI implementation that MPIDR
based affinity levels map directly to levels in a power domain tree. This
enables PSCI generic code to support complex power domain topologies as
envisaged by PSCIv1.0 specification. The platform interface for querying
the power domain topology has been changed such that:
1. The generic PSCI code does not generate MPIDRs and use them to query the
platform about the number of power domains at a particular power level. The
platform now provides a description of the power domain tree on the SoC
through a data structure. The existing platform APIs to provide the same
information have been removed.
2. The linear indices returned by plat_core_pos_by_mpidr() and
plat_my_core_pos() are used to retrieve core power domain nodes from the
power domain tree. Power domains above the core level are accessed using a
'parent' field in the tree node descriptors.
The platform describes the power domain tree in an array of 'unsigned
char's. The first entry in the array specifies the number of power domains at
the highest power level implemented in the system. Each susbsequent entry
corresponds to a power domain and contains the number of power domains that are
its direct children. This array is exported to the generic PSCI implementation
via the new `plat_get_power_domain_tree_desc()` platform API.
The PSCI generic code uses this array to populate its internal power domain tree
using the Breadth First Search like algorithm. The tree is split into two
arrays:
1. An array that contains all the core power domain nodes
2. An array that contains all the other power domain nodes
A separate array for core nodes allows certain core specific optimisations to
be implemented e.g. remove the bakery lock, re-use per-cpu data framework for
storing some information.
Entries in the core power domain array are allocated such that the
array index of the domain is equal to the linear index returned by
plat_core_pos_by_mpidr() and plat_my_core_pos() for the MPIDR
corresponding to that domain. This relationship is key to be able to use
an MPIDR to find the corresponding core power domain node, traverse to higher
power domain nodes and index into arrays that contain core specific
information.
An introductory document has been added to briefly describe the new interface.

Remove the 'NEED_BL32' flag from the makefile. TLK compiles using a
completely different build system and is present on the device as a
binary blob. The NEED_BL32 flag does not influence the TLK load/boot
sequence at all. Moreover, it expects that TLK binary be present on
the host before we can compile BL31 support for Tegra.
This patch removes the flag from the makefile and thus decouples both

Linaro produce monthly software releases for the Juno and AEMv8-FVP
platforms. These provide an integrated set of software components
that have been tested together on these platforms.
From now on, it is recommend that Trusted Firmware developers use the
Linaro releases (currently 15.06) as a baseline for the dependent
software components: normal world firmware, Linux kernel and device
tree, file system as well as any additional micro-controller firmware
required by the platform.
This patch updates the user guide to document this new process. It
changes the instructions to get the source code of the full software
stack (including Trusted Firmware) and updates the dependency build
instructions to make use of the build scripts that the Linaro releases
provide.

This patch modifies the Trusted Board Boot implementation to use
the new authentication framework, making use of the authentication
module, the cryto module and the image parser module to
authenticate the images in the Chain of Trust.
A new function 'load_auth_image()' has been implemented. When TBB
is enabled, this function will call the authentication module to
authenticate parent images following the CoT up to the root of
trust to finally load and authenticate the requested image.
The platform is responsible for picking up the right makefiles to
build the corresponding cryptographic and image parser libraries.
ARM platforms use the mbedTLS based libraries.
The platform may also specify what key algorithm should be used
to sign the certificates. This is done by declaring the 'KEY_ALG'
variable in the platform makefile. FVP and Juno use ECDSA keys.
On ARM platforms, BL2 and BL1-RW regions have been increased 4KB
each to accommodate the ECDSA code.

This patch extends the platform port by adding an API that returns
either the Root of Trust public key (ROTPK) or its hash. This is
usually stored in ROM or eFUSE memory. The ROTPK returned must be
encoded in DER format according to the following ASN.1 structure:
SubjectPublicKeyInfo ::= SEQUENCE {
algorithm AlgorithmIdentifier,
subjectPublicKey BIT STRING
}
In case the platform returns a hash of the key:
DigestInfo ::= SEQUENCE {
digestAlgorithm AlgorithmIdentifier,
keyDigest OCTET STRING
}
An implementation for ARM development platforms is provided in this
patch. When TBB is enabled, the ROTPK hash location must be specified
using the build option 'ARM_ROTPK_LOCATION'. Available options are:
- 'regs' : return the ROTPK hash stored in the Trusted
root-key storage registers.
- 'devel_rsa' : return a ROTPK hash embedded in the BL1 and
BL2 binaries. This hash has been obtained from the development
RSA public key located in 'plat/arm/board/common/rotpk'.
On FVP, the number of MMU tables has been increased to map and
access the ROTPK registers.
A new file 'board_common.mk' has been added to improve code sharing
in the ARM develelopment platforms.

The Trusted firmware code identifies BL images by name. The platform
port defines a name for each image e.g. the IO framework uses this
mechanism in the platform function plat_get_image_source(). For
a given image name, it returns the handle to the image file which
involves comparing images names. In addition, if the image is
packaged in a FIP, a name comparison is required to find the UUID
for the image. This method is not optimal.
This patch changes the interface between the generic and platform
code with regard to identifying images. The platform port must now
allocate a unique number (ID) for every image. The generic code will
use the image ID instead of the name to access its attributes.
As a result, the plat_get_image_source() function now takes an image
ID as an input parameter. The organisation of data structures within
the IO framework has been rationalised to use an image ID as an index
into an array which contains attributes of the image such as UUID and
name. This prevents the name comparisons.
A new type 'io_uuid_spec_t' has been introduced in the IO framework
to specify images identified by UUID (i.e. when the image is contained
in a FIP file). There is no longer need to maintain a look-up table
[iname_name --> uuid] in the io_fip driver code.
Because image names are no longer mandatory in the platform port, the
debug messages in the generic code will show the image identifier
instead of the file name. The platforms that support semihosting to
load images (i.e. FVP) must provide the file names as definitions
private to the platform.
The ARM platform ports and documentation have been updated accordingly.
All ARM platforms reuse the image IDs defined in the platform common
code. These IDs will be used to access other attributes of an image in
subsequent patches.
IMPORTANT: applying this patch breaks compatibility for platforms that
use TF BL1 or BL2 images or the image loading code. The platform port
must be updated to match the new interface.

This patch adds a boolean build option 'SAVE_KEYS' to indicate the
certificate generation tool that it must save the private keys used
to establish the chain of trust. This option depends on 'CREATE_KEYS'

Because the same filenames are used as outputs to save the keys,
they are no longer a dependency to the cert_tool. This dependency
has been removed from the Makefile.
Documentation updated accordingly.

This patch adds support for SYSTEM_SUSPEND API as mentioned in the PSCI 1.0
specification. This API, on being invoked on the last running core on a
supported platform, will put the system into a low power mode with memory
retention.
The psci_afflvl_suspend() internal API has been reused as most of the actions
to suspend a system are the same as invoking the PSCI CPU_SUSPEND API with the
target affinity level as 'system'. This API needs the 'power state' parameter
for the target low power state. This parameter is not passed by the caller of
the SYSTEM_SUSPEND API. Hence, the platform needs to implement the
get_sys_suspend_power_state() platform function to provide this information.
Also, the platform also needs to add support for suspending the system to the
existing 'plat_pm_ops' functions: affinst_suspend() and
affinst_suspend_finish().

This patch introduces a new platform build option, called
PROGRAMMABLE_RESET_ADDRESS, which tells whether the platform has
a programmable or fixed reset vector address.
If the reset vector address is fixed then the code relies on the
platform_get_entrypoint() mailbox mechanism to figure out where
it is supposed to jump. On the other hand, if it is programmable
then it is assumed that the platform code will program directly
the right address into the RVBAR register (instead of using the
mailbox redirection) so the mailbox is ignored in this case.

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.

This patch removes the FIRST_RESET_HANDLER_CALL build flag and its
use in ARM development platforms. If a different reset handling
behavior is required between the first and subsequent invocations
of the reset handling code, this should be detected at runtime.
On Juno, the platform reset handler is now always compiled in.
This means it is now executed twice on the cold boot path, first in
BL1 then in BL3-1, and it has the same behavior in both cases. It is
also executed twice on the warm boot path, first in BL1 then in the
PSCI entrypoint code.
Also update the documentation to reflect this change.
NOTE: THIS PATCH MAY FORCE PLATFORM PORTS THAT USE THE
FIRST_RESET_HANDLER_CALL BUILD OPTION TO FIX THEIR RESET HANDLER.

On ARM standard platforms, snoop and DVM requests used to be enabled
for the primary CPU's cluster only in the first EL3 bootloader.
In other words, if the platform reset into BL1 then CCI coherency
would be enabled by BL1 only, and not by BL3-1 again.
However, this doesn't cater for platforms that use BL3-1 along with
a non-TF ROM bootloader that doesn't enable snoop and DVM requests.
In this case, CCI coherency is never enabled.
This patch modifies the function bl31_early_platform_setup() on
ARM standard platforms so that it always enables snoop and DVM
requests regardless of whether earlier bootloader stages have
already done it. There is no harm in executing this code twice.

The CPU specific reset handlers no longer have the freedom
of using any general purpose register because it is being invoked
by the BL3-1 entry point in addition to BL1. The Cortex-A57 CPU

This patch adds the function plat_match_rotpk() to the platform
porting layer to provide a Root Of Trust Public key (ROTPK)
verification mechanism. This function is called during the
Trusted Board Boot process and receives a supposed valid copy
of the ROTPK as a parameter, usually obtained from an external
source (for instance, a certificate). It returns 0 (success) if
that key matches the actual ROTPK stored in the system or any
other value otherwise.
The mechanism to access the actual ROTPK stored in the system
is platform specific and should be implemented as part of this
function. The format of the ROTPK is also platform specific
(to save memory, some platforms might store a hash of the key
instead of the whole key).
TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT build option has been added to allow the user
to enable the Trusted Board Boot features. The implementation of
the plat_match_rotpk() funtion is mandatory when Trusted Board
Boot is enabled.
For development purposes, FVP and Juno ports provide a dummy
function that returns always success (valid key). A safe trusted
boot implementation should provide a proper matching function.

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.
