When the MMU is enabled and the translation tables are mapped, data
read/writes to the translation tables are made using the attributes
specified in the translation tables themselves. However, the MMU
performs table walks with the attributes specified in TCR_ELx. They are
completely independent, so special care has to be taken to make sure
that they are the same.
This has to be done manually because it is not practical to have a test
in the code. Such a test would need to know the virtual memory region
that contains the translation tables and check that for all of the
tables the attributes match the ones in TCR_ELx. As the tables may not
even be mapped at all, this isn't a test that can be made generic.
The flags used by enable_mmu_xxx() have been moved to the same header
where the functions are.
Also, some comments in the linker scripts related to the translation
tables have been fixed.

This patch enables BL2 to execute at the highest exception level
without any dependancy on TF BL1. This enables platforms which already
have a non-TF Boot ROM to directly load and execute BL2 and subsequent BL
stages without need for BL1. This is not currently possible because
BL2 executes at S-EL1 and cannot jump straight to EL3.

A new platform define, `PLAT_SP_IMAGE_XLAT_SECTION_NAME`, has been
introduced to select the section where the translation tables used by
the S-EL1/S-EL0 are placed.
This define has been used to move the translation tables to DRAM secured
by TrustZone.
Most of the extra needed space in BL31 when SPM is enabled is due to the
large size of the translation tables. By moving them to this memory
region we can save 44 KiB.
A new argument has been added to REGISTER_XLAT_CONTEXT2() to specify the
region where the translation tables have to be placed by the linker.

This patch introduces a new API in the translation tables library
(v2), that allows to change the memory attributes of a memory
region. It may be used to change its execution permissions and
data access permissions.
As a prerequisite, the memory must be already mapped. Moreover, it
must be mapped at the finest granularity (currently 4 KB).

This patch introduces the ability of the xlat tables library to manage
EL0 and EL1 mappings from a higher exception level.
Attributes MT_USER and MT_PRIVILEGED have been added to allow the user
specify the target EL in the translation regime EL1&0.
REGISTER_XLAT_CONTEXT2 macro is introduced to allow creating a
xlat_ctx_t that targets a given translation regime (EL1&0 or EL3).
A new member is added to xlat_ctx_t to represent the translation regime
the xlat_ctx_t manages. The execute_never mask member is removed as it
is computed from existing information.

The current implementation of the memory mapping API favours mapping
memory regions using the biggest possible block size in order to
reduce the number of translation tables needed.
In some cases, this behaviour might not be desirable. When translation
tables are edited at run-time, coarse-grain mappings like that might
need splitting into finer-grain tables. This operation has a
performance cost.
The MAP_REGION2() macro allows to specify the granularity of
translation tables used for the initial mapping of a memory region.
This might increase performance for memory regions that are likely to
be edited in the future, at the expense of a potentially increased
memory footprint.
The Translation Tables Library Design Guide has been updated to
explain the use case for this macro. Also added a few intermediate
titles to make the guide easier to digest.

Use the MAP_REGION to build the mmap_region_t argument in wrappers like
mmap_add_region(). Evolution of the mmap_region_t might require adding
new members with a non-zero default value. Users of MAP_REGION are
protected against such evolution. This commit also protects users of
mmap_add_region() and mmap_add_dynamic_region() functions against these
evolutions.
Also make the MAP_REGION macro implementation more explicit and make it
a mmap_region_t compound literal to make it useable as a function
parameter on its own and to prevent using it in initialization of
variables of different type.

At the moment, various parts of the Trusted Firmware code assume
that the granule size used is 4 KB. For example, the linker scripts
enforce 4 KB alignment restrictions on some sections.
However, the ARMv8-A architecture allows 16 KB and 64 KB granule
sizes as well. Some other parts of the TF code, particularly the
architectural code and definitions, have been implemented with
this in mind and cater for all 3 cases.
This discrepancy creates some confusion as to what is effectively
supported in TF. This patch adds some code comments and clarification
in the documentation to make this limitation clearer.

In a previous patch, the xlat_ctx_t type has been made public.
This patch now makes the *_ctx() APIs public.
Each API now has a *_ctx() variant. Most of them were already implemented
and this patch just makes them public. However, some of them were missing
so this patch introduces them.
Now that all these APIs are public, there's no good reason for splitting
them accross 2 files (xlat_tables_internal.c and xlat_tables_common.c).
Therefore, this patch moves all code into xlat_tables_internal.c and
removes xlat_tables_common.c. It removes it from the library's makefile
as well.
This last change introduces a compatibility break for platform ports
that specifically include the xlat_tables_common.c file instead of
including the library's Makefile. The UniPhier platform makefile has
been updated to now omit this file from the list of source files.
The prototype of mmap_add_region_ctx() has been slightly changed. The
mmap_region_t passed in argument needs to be constant because it gets
called from map_add(), which receives a constant region. The former
implementation of mmap_add() used to cast the const qualifier away,
which is not a good practice.
Also remove init_xlation_table(), which was a sub-function of
init_xlat_tables(). Now there's just init_xlat_tables() (and
init_xlat_tables_ctx()). Both names were too similar, which was
confusing. Besides, now that all the code is in a single file,
it's no longer needed to have 2 functions for that.

At the moment, the translation context type (xlat_ctx_t) is a private
type reserved for the internal usage of the translation table library.
All exported APIs (implemented in xlat_tables_common.c) are wrappers
over the internal implementations that use such a translation context.
These wrappers unconditionally pass the current translation context
representing the memory mappings of the executing BL image. This means
that the caller has no control over which translation context the
library functions act on.
As a first step to make this code more flexible, this patch exports
the 'xlat_ctx_t' type. Note that, although the declaration of this type
is now public, its definition stays private. A macro is introduced to
statically allocate and initialize such a translation context.
The library now internally uses this macro to allocate the default
translation context for the running BL image.

Move the header files that provide translation tables architectural
definitions from the library v2 source files to the library include
directory. This allows to share these definitions between both
versions (v1 and v2) of the library.
Create a new header file that includes the AArch32 or AArch64
definitions based on the AARCH32 build flag, so that the library user
doesn't have to worry about handling it on their side.
Also repurpose some of the definitions the header files provide to
concentrate on the things that differ between AArch32 and AArch64.
As a result they now contain the following information:
- the first table level that allows block descriptors;
- the architectural limits of the virtual address space;
- the initial lookup level to cover the entire address space.
Additionally, move the XLAT_TABLE_LEVEL_MIN macro from
xlat_tables_defs.h to the AArch32/AArch64 architectural definitions.
This new organisation eliminates duplicated information in the AArch32
and AArch64 versions. It also decouples these architectural files from
any platform-specific information. Previously, they were dependent on
the address space size, which is platform-specific.
Finally, for the v2 of the library, move the compatibility code for
ADDR_SPACE_SIZE into a C file as it is not needed outside of this
file. For v1, this code hasn't been changed and stays in a header
file because it's needed by several files.

Translation regimes that only support one virtual address space (such as
the ones for EL2 and EL3) can flag memory regions as execute-never by
setting to 1 the XN bit in the Upper Attributes field in the translation
tables descriptors. Translation regimes that support two different
virtual address spaces (such as the one shared by EL1 and EL0) use bits
PXN and UXN instead.
The Trusted Firmware runs at EL3 and EL1, it has to handle translation
tables of both translation regimes, but the previous code handled both
regimes the same way, as if both had only 1 VA range.
When trying to set a descriptor as execute-never it would set the XN
bit correctly in EL3, but it would set the XN bit in EL1 as well. XN is
at the same bit position as UXN, which means that EL0 was being
prevented from executing code at this region, not EL1 as the code
intended. Therefore, the PXN bit was unset to 0 all the time. The result
is that, in AArch64 mode, read-only data sections of BL2 weren't
protected from being executed.
This patch adds support of translation regimes with two virtual address
spaces to both versions of the translation tables library, fixing the
execute-never permissions for translation tables in EL1.
The library currently does not support initializing translation tables
for EL0 software, therefore it does not set/unset the UXN bit. If EL1
software needs to initialize translation tables for EL0 software, it
should use a different library instead.

This patch modifies both versions of the translation table library
to use the mmap_attr_t type consistently wherever it is manipulating
MT_* attributes variables. It used to use mmap_attr_t or plain integer

incorrect.
This patch removes this assumption by using the abstract type

The folder lib/xlat_tables_v2 has been created to store a new version
of the translation tables library for further modifications in patches
to follow. At the moment it only contains a basic implementation that
supports static regions.
This library allows different translation tables to be modified by
using different 'contexts'. For now, the implementation defaults to
the translation tables used by the current image, but it is possible
to modify other tables than the ones in use.
Added a new API to print debug information for the current state of
the translation tables, rather than printing the information while
the tables are being created. This allows subsequent debug printing
of the xlat tables after they have been changed, which will be useful
when dynamic regions are implemented in a patch to follow.
The common definitions stored in `xlat_tables.h` header have been moved
to a new file common to both versions, `xlat_tables_defs.h`.
All headers related to the translation tables library have been moved to
a the subfolder `xlat_tables`.
