This patch adds following optional PSCI STAT functions:
- PSCI_STAT_RESIDENCY: This call returns the amount of time spent
in power_state in microseconds, by the node represented by the
`target_cpu` and the highest level of `power_state`.
- PSCI_STAT_COUNT: This call returns the number of times a
`power_state` has been used by the node represented by the
`target_cpu` and the highest power level of `power_state`.
These APIs provides residency statistics for power states that has
been used by the platform. They are implemented according to v1.0
of the PSCI specification.
By default this optional feature is disabled in the PSCI
implementation. To enable it, set the boolean flag
`ENABLE_PSCI_STAT` to 1. This also sets `ENABLE_PMF` to 1.

This patch adds Performance Measurement Framework(PMF) in the
ARM Trusted Firmware. PMF is implemented as a library and the
SMC interface is provided through ARM SiP service.
The PMF provides capturing, storing, dumping and retrieving the
time-stamps, by enabling the development of services by different
providers, that can be easily integrated into ARM Trusted Firmware.
The PMF capture and retrieval APIs can also do appropriate cache
maintenance operations to the timestamp memory when the caller
indicates so.
`pmf_main.c` consists of core functions that implement service
registration, initialization, storing, dumping and retrieving
the time-stamp.
`pmf_smc.c` consists SMC handling for registered PMF services.
`pmf.h` consists of the macros that can be used by the PMF service
providers to register service and declare time-stamp functions.
`pmf_helpers.h` consists of internal macros that are used by `pmf.h`
By default this feature is disabled in the ARM trusted firmware.
To enable it set the boolean flag `ENABLE_PMF` to 1.
NOTE: The caller is responsible for specifying the appropriate cache
maintenance flags and for acquiring/releasing appropriate locks
before/after capturing/retrieving the time-stamps.

A production ROM with TBB enabled must have the ability to boot test software
before a real ROTPK is deployed (e.g. manufacturing mode). Previously the
function plat_get_rotpk_info() must return a valid ROTPK for TBB to succeed.
This patch adds an additional bit `ROTPK_NOT_DEPLOYED` in the output `flags`
parameter from plat_get_rotpk_info(). If this bit is set, then the ROTPK
in certificate is used without verifying against the platform value.

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

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

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.

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

and treat LDNP/STNP as LDP/STP instead.

Since commit 804040d106, the Juno port has moved from per-CPU mailboxes
to a single shared one. This patch updates an out-dated reference to
the former per-CPU mailboxes mechanism in the Firmware Design.

This patch adds a brief description of 'MAX_MMAP_REGIONS' and
'ADDR_SPACE_SIZE' to the Porting Guide. These fields must be defined
by the platform in order to use the translation table library.

The fip_create tool specifies images in the command line using the
ARM TF naming convention (--bl2, --bl31, etc), while the cert_create
tool uses the TBBR convention (--tb-fw, --soc-fw, etc). This double
convention is confusing and should be aligned.
This patch updates the fip_create command line options to follow the
TBBR naming convention. Usage examples in the User Guide have been
also updated.
NOTE: users that build the FIP by calling the fip_create tool directly
from the command line must update the command line options in their
scripts. Users that build the FIP by invoking the main ARM TF Makefile
should not notice any difference.

Remove the following redundant sentence from the user guide, which
implies the user should use the TF version from the Linaro release,
which was not the intention:
"However, the rest of this document assumes that you got the
Trusted Firmware as part of the Linaro release."
Also, tidied up the grammar in this section.
