PSCI: Do psci_setup() as part of std_svc_setup()
...
This patch moves the invocation of `psci_setup()` from BL31 and SP_MIN
into `std_svc_setup()` as part of ARM Standard Service initialization.
This allows us to consolidate ARM Standard Service initializations which
will be added to in the future. A new function `get_arm_std_svc_args()`
is introduced to get arguments corresponding to each standard service.
This function must be implemented by the EL3 Runtime Firmware and both
SP_MIN and BL31 implement it.

Introduce PSCI Library Interface
...
This patch introduces the PSCI Library interface. The major changes
introduced are as follows:
* Earlier BL31 was responsible for Architectural initialization during cold
boot via bl31_arch_setup() whereas PSCI was responsible for the same during
warm boot. This functionality is now consolidated by the PSCI library
and it does Architectural initialization via psci_arch_setup() during both
cold and warm boots.
* Earlier the warm boot entry point was always `psci_entrypoint()`. This was
not flexible enough as a library interface. Now PSCI expects the runtime
firmware to provide the entry point via `psci_setup()`. A new function
`bl31_warm_entrypoint` is introduced in BL31 and the previous
`psci_entrypoint()` is deprecated.
* The `smc_helpers.h` is reorganized to separate the SMC Calling Convention
defines from the Trusted Firmware SMC helpers. The former is now in a new
header file `smcc.h` and the SMC helpers are moved to Architecture specific
header.
* The CPU context is used by PSCI for context initialization and
restoration after power down (PSCI Context). It is also used by BL31 for SMC
handling and context management during Normal-Secure world switch (SMC
Context). The `psci_smc_handler()` interface is redefined to not use SMC
helper macros thus enabling to decouple the PSCI context from EL3 runtime
firmware SMC context. This enables PSCI to be integrated with other runtime
firmware using a different SMC context.
NOTE: With this patch the architectural setup done in `bl31_arch_setup()`
is done as part of `psci_setup()` and hence `bl31_platform_setup()` will be
invoked prior to architectural setup. It is highly unlikely that the platform
setup will depend on architectural setup and cause any failure. Please be
be aware of this change in sequence.

Introduce `el3_runtime` and `PSCI` libraries
...
This patch moves the PSCI services and BL31 frameworks like context
management and per-cpu data into new library components `PSCI` and
`el3_runtime` respectively. This enables PSCI to be built independently from
BL31. A new `psci_lib.mk` makefile is introduced which adds the relevant
PSCI library sources and gets included by `bl31.mk`. Other changes which
are done as part of this patch are:
* The runtime services framework is now moved to the `common/` folder to
enable reuse.
* The `asm_macros.S` and `assert_macros.S` helpers are moved to architecture
specific folder.
* The `plat_psci_common.c` is moved from the `plat/common/aarch64/` folder
to `plat/common` folder. The original file location now has a stub which
just includes the file from new location to maintain platform compatibility.
Most of the changes wouldn't affect platform builds as they just involve
changes to the generic bl1.mk and bl31.mk makefiles.
NOTE: THE `plat_psci_common.c` FILE HAS MOVED LOCATION AND THE STUB FILE AT
THE ORIGINAL LOCATION IS NOW DEPRECATED. PLATFORMS SHOULD MODIFY THEIR
MAKEFILES TO INCLUDE THE FILE FROM THE NEW LOCATION.

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.

Add optional PSCI STAT residency & count functions
...
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.

Fix PSCI CPU ON race when setting state to ON_PENDING
...
When a CPU is powered down using PSCI CPU OFF API, it disables its caches
and updates its `aff_info_state` to OFF. The corresponding cache line is
invalidated by the CPU so that the update will be observed by other CPUs
running with caches enabled. There is a possibility that another CPU
which has been trying to turn ON this CPU via PSCI CPU ON API,
has already seen the update to `aff_info_state` and proceeds to update
the state to ON_PENDING prior to the cache invalidation. This may result
in the update of the state to ON_PENDING being discarded.
This patch fixes this issue by making sure that the update of `aff_info_state`
to ON_PENDING sticks by reading back the value after the cache flush and
retrying it if not updated. The patch also adds a dsbish() to
`psci_do_cpu_off()` to ensure ordering of the update to `aff_info_state`
prior to cache line invalidation.

Make generic code work in presence of system caches
...
On the ARMv8 architecture, cache maintenance operations by set/way on the last
level of integrated cache do not affect the system cache. This means that such a
flush or clean operation could result in the data being pushed out to the system
cache rather than main memory. Another CPU could access this data before it
enables its data cache or MMU. Such accesses could be serviced from the main
memory instead of the system cache. If the data in the sysem cache has not yet
been flushed or evicted to main memory then there could be a loss of
coherency. The only mechanism to guarantee that the main memory will be updated
is to use cache maintenance operations to the PoC by MVA(See section D3.4.11
(System level caches) of ARMv8-A Reference Manual (Issue A.g/ARM DDI0487A.G).
This patch removes the reliance of Trusted Firmware on the flush by set/way
operation to ensure visibility of data in the main memory. Cache maintenance
operations by MVA are now used instead. The following are the broad category of
changes:
1. The RW areas of BL2/BL31/BL32 are invalidated by MVA before the C runtime is
initialised. This ensures that any stale cache lines at any level of cache
are removed.
2. Updates to global data in runtime firmware (BL31) by the primary CPU are made
visible to secondary CPUs using a cache clean operation by MVA.
3. Cache maintenance by set/way operations are only used prior to power down.
NOTE: NON-UPSTREAM TRUSTED FIRMWARE CODE SHOULD MAKE EQUIVALENT CHANGES IN
ORDER TO FUNCTION CORRECTLY ON PLATFORMS WITH SUPPORT FOR SYSTEM CACHES.

Re-design bakery lock memory allocation and algorithm
...
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.

Pass the target suspend level to SPD suspend hooks
...
In certain Trusted OS implementations it is a requirement to pass them the
highest power level which will enter a power down state during a PSCI
CPU_SUSPEND or SYSTEM_SUSPEND API invocation. This patch passes this power level
to the SPD in the "max_off_pwrlvl" parameter of the svc_suspend() hook.
Currently, the highest power level which was requested to be placed in a low
power state (retention or power down) is passed to the SPD svc_suspend_finish()
hook. This hook is called after emerging from the low power state. It is more
useful to pass the highest power level which was powered down instead. This
patch does this by changing the semantics of the parameter passed to an SPD's
svc_suspend_finish() hook. The name of the parameter has been changed from
"suspend_level" to "max_off_pwrlvl" as well. Same changes have been made to the
parameter passed to the tsp_cpu_resume_main() function.
NOTE: THIS PATCH CHANGES THE SEMANTICS OF THE EXISTING "svc_suspend_finish()"
API BETWEEN THE PSCI AND SPD/SP IMPLEMENTATIONS. THE LATTER MIGHT NEED
UPDATES TO ENSURE CORRECT BEHAVIOUR.

The default weak implementation of platform_get_core_pos() is now removed from
platform_helpers.S and is provided by the compatibility layer.
Note: The Secure Payloads and their dispatchers still use the old platform

PSCI: Implement platform compatibility layer

The new PSCI topology framework and PSCI extended State framework introduces
a breaking change in the platform port APIs. To ease the migration of the
platform ports to the new porting interface, a compatibility layer is
introduced which essentially defines the new platform API in terms of the
old API. The old PSCI helpers to retrieve the power-state, its associated
fields and the highest coordinated physical OFF affinity level of a core
are also implemented for compatibility. This allows the existing
platform ports to work with the new PSCI framework without significant
rework. This layer will be enabled by default once the switch to the new
PSCI framework is done and is controlled by the build flag ENABLE_PLAT_COMPAT.

PSCI: Unify warm reset entry points
...
There used to be 2 warm reset entry points:
- the "on finisher", for when the core has been turned on using a
PSCI CPU_ON call;
- the "suspend finisher", entered upon resumption from a previous
PSCI CPU_SUSPEND call.
The appropriate warm reset entry point used to be programmed into the
mailboxes by the power management hooks.
However, it is not required to provide this information to the PSCI
entry point code, as it can figure it out by itself. By querying affinity
info state, a core is able to determine on which execution path it is.
If the state is ON_PENDING then it means it's been turned on else
it is resuming from suspend.
This patch unifies the 2 warm reset entry points into a single one:
psci_entrypoint(). The patch also implements the necessary logic
to distinguish between the 2 types of warm resets in the power up
finisher.
The plat_setup_psci_ops() API now takes the
secure entry point as an additional parameter to enable the platforms
to configure their mailbox. The platform hooks `pwr_domain_on`
and `pwr_domain_suspend` no longer take secure entry point as
a parameter.

PSCI: Add framework to handle composite power states
...
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.

PSCI: Introduce new platform interface to describe topology
...
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.

assumption that the MPIDR based affinity levels map directly to levels
in a power domain tree. The new platforms APIs and context management
helpers based on core position are as described below:
* plat_my_core_pos() and plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()
These 2 new mandatory platform APIs are meant to replace the existing
'platform_get_core_pos()' API. The 'plat_my_core_pos()' API returns the
linear index of the calling core and 'plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()' returns
the linear index of a core specified by its MPIDR. The latter API will also
validate the MPIDR passed as an argument and will return an error code (-1)
if an invalid MPIDR is passed as the argument. This enables the caller to
safely convert an MPIDR of another core to its linear index without querying
the PSCI topology tree e.g. during a call to PSCI CPU_ON.
Since the 'plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()' API verifies an MPIDR, which is always
platform specific, it is no longer possible to maintain a default implementation
of this API. Also it might not be possible for a platform port to verify an
MPIDR before the C runtime has been setup or the topology has been initialized.
This would prevent 'plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()' from being callable prior to
topology setup. As a result, the generic Trusted Firmware code does not call
this API before the topology setup has been done.
The 'plat_my_core_pos' API should be able to run without a C runtime.
Since this API needs to return a core position which is equal to the one
returned by 'plat_core_pos_by_mpidr()' API for the corresponding MPIDR,
this too cannot have default implementation and is a mandatory API for
platform ports. These APIs will be implemented by the ARM reference platform
ports later in the patch stack.
* plat_get_my_stack() and plat_set_my_stack()
These APIs are the stack management APIs which set/return stack addresses
appropriate for the calling core. These replace the 'platform_get_stack()' and
'platform_set_stack()' APIs. A default weak MP version and a global UP version
of these APIs are provided for the platforms.
* Context management helpers based on linear core position
A set of new context management(CM) helpers viz cm_get_context_by_index(),
cm_set_context_by_index(), cm_init_my_context() and cm_init_context_by_index()
are defined which are meant to replace the old helpers which took MPIDR
as argument. The old CM helpers are implemented based on the new helpers to
allow for code consolidation and will be deprecated once the switch to the new
framework is done.

PSCI: Remove references to affinity based power management
...
As per Section 4.2.2. in the PSCI specification, the term "affinity"
is used in the context of describing the hierarchical arrangement
of cores. This often, but not always, maps directly to the processor
power domain topology of the system. The current PSCI implementation
assumes that this is always the case i.e. MPIDR based levels of
affinity always map to levels in a power domain topology tree.
This patch is the first in a series of patches which remove this
assumption. It removes all occurences of the terms "affinity
instances and levels" when used to describe the power domain
topology. Only the terminology is changed in this patch. Subsequent
patches will implement functional changes to remove the above
mentioned assumption.

PSCI: Invoke PM hooks only for the highest level
...
This patch optimizes the invocation of the platform power management hooks for
ON, OFF and SUSPEND such that they are called only for the highest affinity
level which will be powered off/on. Earlier, the hooks were being invoked for
all the intermediate levels as well.
This patch requires that the platforms migrate to the new semantics of the PM
hooks. It also removes the `state` parameter from the pm hooks as the `afflvl`
parameter now indicates the highest affinity level for which power management
operations are required.
