Merge "Add compile-time errors for HW_ASSISTED_COHERENCY flag" into integration

Add compile-time errors for HW_ASSISTED_COHERENCY flag ...

This patch fixes this issue:
https://github.com/ARM-software/tf-issues/issues/660

The introduced changes are the following:

1) Some cores implement cache coherency maintenance operation on the
hardware level. For those cores, such as - but not only - the DynamIQ
cores, it is mandatory that TF-A is compiled with the
HW_ASSISTED_COHERENCY flag. If not, the core behaviour at runtime is
unpredictable. To prevent this, compile time checks have been added and
compilation errors are generated, if needed.

2) To enable this change for FVP, a logical separation has been done for
the core libraries. A system cannot contain cores of both groups, i.e.
cores that manage coherency on hardware and cores that don't do it. As
such, depending on the HW_ASSISTED_COHERENCY flag, FVP includes the
libraries only of the relevant cores.

3) The neoverse_e1.S file has been added to the FVP sources.

build_macros: Add mechanism to prevent bin generation. ...

On certain platforms it does not make sense to generate
TF-A binary images. For example a platform could make use of serveral
memory areas, which are non-continuous and the resulting binary
therefore would suffer from the padding-bytes.
Typically these platforms use the ELF image.

This patch introduces a variable DISABLE_BIN_GENERATION, which
can be set to '1' in the platform makefile to prevent the binary
generation.

Add support for default stack-protector flag ...

The current stack-protector support is for none, "strong" or "all".
The default use of the flag enables the stack-protection to all
functions that declare a character array of eight bytes or more in
length on their stack.
This option can be tuned with the --param=ssp-buffer-size=N option.

Tegra: Support for scatterfile for the BL31 image ...

This patch provides support for using the scatterfile format as
the linker script with the 'armlink' linker for Tegra platforms.

In order to enable the scatterfile usage the following changes
have been made:

* provide mapping for ld.S symbols in bl_common.h
* include bl_common.h from all the affected files
* update the makefile rules to use the scatterfile and armlink
  to compile BL31
* update pubsub.h to add sections to the scatterfile

NOTE: THIS CHANGE HAS BEEN VERIFIED WITH TEGRA PLATFORMS ONLY.

Add support for pointer authentication ...

The previous commit added the infrastructure to load and save
ARMv8.3-PAuth registers during Non-secure <-> Secure world switches, but
didn't actually enable pointer authentication in the firmware.

This patch adds the functionality needed for platforms to provide
authentication keys for the firmware, and a new option (ENABLE_PAUTH) to
enable pointer authentication in the firmware itself. This option is
disabled by default, and it requires CTX_INCLUDE_PAUTH_REGS to be
enabled.

Add ARMv8.3-PAuth registers to CPU context ...

ARMv8.3-PAuth adds functionality that supports address authentication of
the contents of a register before that register is used as the target of
an indirect branch, or as a load.

This feature is supported only in AArch64 state.

This feature is mandatory in ARMv8.3 implementations.

This feature adds several registers to EL1. A new option called
CTX_INCLUDE_PAUTH_REGS has been added to select if the TF needs to save
them during Non-secure <-> Secure world switches. This option must be
enabled if the hardware has the registers or the values will be leaked
during world switches.

To prevent leaks, this patch also disables pointer authentication in the
Secure world if CTX_INCLUDE_PAUTH_REGS is 0. Any attempt to use it will
be trapped in EL3.
