Add new version of image loading.
...
This patch adds capability to load BL images based on image
descriptors instead of hard coded way of loading BL images.
This framework is designed such that it can be readily adapted
by any BL stage that needs to load images.
In order to provide the above capability the following new
platform functions are introduced:
bl_load_info_t *plat_get_bl_image_load_info(void);
This function returns pointer to the list of images that the
platform has populated to load.
bl_params_t *plat_get_next_bl_params(void);
This function returns a pointer to the shared memory that the
platform has kept aside to pass trusted firmware related
information that next BL image needs.
void plat_flush_next_bl_params(void);
This function flushes to main memory all the params that
are passed to next image.
int bl2_plat_handle_post_image_load(unsigned int image_id)
This function can be used by the platforms to update/use
image information for given `image_id`.
`desc_image_load.c` contains utility functions which can be used
by the platforms to generate, load and executable, image list
based on the registered image descriptors.
This patch also adds new version of `load_image/load_auth_image`
functions in-order to achieve the above capability.
Following are the changes for the new version as compared to old:
- Refactor the signature and only keep image_id and image_info_t
arguments. Removed image_base argument as it is already passed
through image_info_t. Given that the BL image base addresses and
limit/size are already provided by the platforms, the meminfo_t
and entry_point_info arguments are not needed to provide/reserve
the extent of free memory for the given BL image.
- Added check for the image size against the defined max size.
This is needed because the image size could come from an
unauthenticated source (e.g. the FIP header).
To make this check, new member is added to the image_info_t
struct for identifying the image maximum size.
New flag `LOAD_IMAGE_V2` is added in the Makefile.
Default value is 0.
NOTE: `TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT` is currently not supported when
`LOAD_IMAGE_V2` is enabled.

Remove dcache invalidation after image authentication
...
At the end of successful image authentication in load_auth_image(),
the data cache for the virtual address range corresponding to the
image is invalidated (by a call to inv_dcache_range()). The intent
seems to be to ensure the data caches do not contain any sensitive
data used during authentication, which subsequent code can read.
However, this same address range is already flushed (cleaned and
invalidated by a call to flush_dcache_range()) at the end of
load_image(), and the subsequent invalidate has no functional
effect.
This patch removes the redundant call to inv_dcache_range(). It
also moves the flush_dcache_range() call from the end of load_image()
to the end of load_auth_image(), so the image data will remain in
the caches during authentication, improving performance.
This also improves the comments that explain the rationale for
calling flush_dcache_range() after image loading/authentication.

Ensure addresses in is_mem_free() don't overflow
...
This patch adds some runtime checks to prevent some potential
pointer overflow issues in the is_mem_free() function. The overflow
could happen in the case where the end addresses, computed as the
sum of a base address and a size, results in a value large enough
to wrap around. This, in turn, could lead to unpredictable behaviour.
If such an overflow is detected, the is_mem_free() function will now
declare the memory region as not free. The overflow is detected using
a new macro, called check_uptr_overflow().
This patch also modifies all other places in the 'bl_common.c' file
where an end address was computed as the sum of a base address and a
size and instead keeps the two values separate. This avoids the need
to handle pointer overflows everywhere. The code doesn't actually need
to compute any end address before the is_mem_free() function is called
other than to print information message to the serial output.
This patch also introduces 2 slight changes to the reserve_mem()
function:
- It fixes the end addresses passed to choose_mem_pos(). It was
incorrectly passing (base + size) instead of (base + size - 1).
- When the requested allocation size is 0, the function now exits
straight away and says so using a warning message.
Previously, it used to actually reserve some memory. A zero-byte
allocation was not considered as a special case so the function
was using the same top/bottom allocation mechanism as for any
other allocation. As a result, the smallest area of memory starting
from the requested base address within the free region was
reserved.

Rework type usage in Trusted Firmware
...
This patch reworks type usage in generic code, drivers and ARM platform files
to make it more portable. The major changes done with respect to
type usage are as listed below:
* Use uintptr_t for storing address instead of uint64_t or unsigned long.
* Review usage of unsigned long as it can no longer be assumed to be 64 bit.
* Use u_register_t for register values whose width varies depending on
whether AArch64 or AArch32.
* Use generic C types where-ever possible.
In addition to the above changes, this patch also modifies format specifiers
in print invocations so that they are AArch64/AArch32 agnostic. Only files
related to upcoming feature development have been reworked.

Refactor the xlat_tables library code
...
The AArch32 long descriptor format and the AArch64 descriptor format
correspond to each other which allows possible sharing of xlat_tables
library code between AArch64 and AArch32. This patch refactors the
xlat_tables library code to seperate the common functionality from
architecture specific code. Prior to this patch, all of the xlat_tables
library code were in `lib/aarch64/xlat_tables.c` file. The refactored code
is now in `lib/xlat_tables/` directory. The AArch64 specific programming
for xlat_tables is in `lib/xlat_tables/aarch64/xlat_tables.c` and the rest
of the code common to AArch64 and AArch32 is in
`lib/xlat_tables/xlat_tables_common.c`. Also the data types used in
xlat_tables library APIs are reworked to make it compatible between AArch64
and AArch32.
The `lib/aarch64/xlat_tables.c` file now includes the new xlat_tables
library files to retain compatibility for existing platform ports.
The macros related to xlat_tables library are also moved from
`include/lib/aarch64/arch.h` to the header `include/lib/xlat_tables.h`.
NOTE: THE `lib/aarch64/xlat_tables.c` FILE IS DEPRECATED AND PLATFORM PORTS
ARE EXPECTED TO INCLUDE THE NEW XLAT_TABLES LIBRARY FILES IN THEIR MAKEFILES.

Introduce print_entry_point_info() function
...
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.

TBB: abort boot if BL3-2 cannot be authenticated

BL3-2 image (Secure Payload) is optional. If the image cannot be
loaded a warning message is printed and the boot process continues.
According to the TBBR document, this behaviour should not apply in
case of an authentication error, where the boot process should be
aborted.
This patch modifies the load_auth_image() function to distinguish
between a load error and an authentication error. The caller uses
the return value to abort the boot process or continue.
In case of authentication error, the memory region used to store
the image is wiped clean.

TBB: switch to the new authentication framework
...
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.

Use numbers to identify images instead of names
...
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.

Skip reserving memory for non-executable and BL3-0 images
...
This patch adds support to not reserve the memory where an image is
loaded if the image is:
1. A non-executable image e.g. a certificate
2. An executable image which is not meant to run on the
application CPU (e.g. BL3-0)
Both types of images are characterized by a NULL entrypoint argument
to the load_image() function. It is used to distinguish them from
other type of images.
Important: Use this feature carefully. The caller is responsible for
providing a valid entrypoint while loading images which will execute
on the application CPU to prevent a potential overwrite of the
corresponding memory region.
