PSCI: Build option to enable D-Caches early in warmboot
...
This patch introduces a build option to enable D-cache early on the CPU
after warm boot. This is applicable for platforms which do not require
interconnect programming to enable cache coherency (eg: single cluster
platforms). If this option is enabled, then warm boot path enables
D-caches immediately after enabling MMU.
Fixes ARM-Software/tf-issues#456

Add support for GCC stack protection
...
Introduce new build option ENABLE_STACK_PROTECTOR. It enables
compilation of all BL images with one of the GCC -fstack-protector-*
options.
A new platform function plat_get_stack_protector_canary() is introduced.
It returns a value that is used to initialize the canary for stack
corruption detection. Returning a random value will prevent an attacker
from predicting the value and greatly increase the effectiveness of the
protection.
A message is printed at the ERROR level when a stack corruption is
detected.
To be effective, the global data must be stored at an address
lower than the base of the stacks. Failure to do so would allow an
attacker to overwrite the canary as part of an attack which would void
the protection.
FVP implementation of plat_get_stack_protector_canary is weak as
there is no real source of entropy on the FVP. It therefore relies on a
timer's value, which could be predictable.

Replace some memset call by zeromem
...
Replace all use of memset by zeromem when zeroing moderately-sized
structure by applying the following transformation:
memset(x, 0, sizeof(x)) => zeromem(x, sizeof(x))
As the Trusted Firmware is compiled with -ffreestanding, it forbids the
compiler from using __builtin_memset and forces it to generate calls to
the slow memset implementation. Zeromem is a near drop in replacement
for this use case, with a more efficient implementation on both AArch32
and AArch64.

Introduce unified API to zero memory
...
Introduce zeromem_dczva function on AArch64 that can handle unaligned
addresses and make use of DC ZVA instruction to zero a whole block at a
time. This zeroing takes place directly in the cache to speed it up
without doing external memory access.
Remove the zeromem16 function on AArch64 and replace it with an alias to
zeromem. This zeromem16 function is now deprecated.
Remove the 16-bytes alignment constraint on __BSS_START__ in
firmware-design.md as it is now not mandatory anymore (it used to comply
with zeromem16 requirements).
Change the 16-bytes alignment constraints in SP min's linker script to a
8-bytes alignment constraint as the AArch32 zeromem implementation is now
more efficient on 8-bytes aligned addresses.
Introduce zero_normalmem and zeromem helpers in platform agnostic header
that are implemented this way:
* AArch32:
* zero_normalmem: zero using usual data access
* zeromem: alias for zero_normalmem
* AArch64:
* zero_normalmem: zero normal memory using DC ZVA instruction
(needs MMU enabled)
* zeromem: zero using usual data access
Usage guidelines: in most cases, zero_normalmem should be preferred.
There are 2 scenarios where zeromem (or memset) must be used instead:
* Code that must run with MMU disabled (which means all memory is
considered device memory for data accesses).
* Code that fills device memory with null bytes.
Optionally, the following rule can be applied if performance is
important:
* Code zeroing small areas (few bytes) that are not secrets should use
memset to take advantage of compiler optimizations.
Note: Code zeroing security-related critical information should use
zero_normalmem/zeromem instead of memset to avoid removal by
compilers' optimizations in some cases or misbehaving versions of GCC.

Abort preempted TSP STD SMC after PSCI CPU suspend
...
Standard SMC requests that are handled in the secure-world by the Secure
Payload can be preempted by interrupts that must be handled in the
normal world. When the TSP is preempted the secure context is stored and
control is passed to the normal world to handle the non-secure
interrupt. Once completed the preempted secure context is restored. When
restoring the preempted context, the dispatcher assumes that the TSP
preempted context is still stored as the SECURE context by the context
management library.
However, PSCI power management operations causes synchronous entry into
TSP. This overwrites the preempted SECURE context in the context
management library. When restoring back the SECURE context, the Secure
Payload crashes because this context is not the preempted context
anymore.
This patch avoids corruption of the preempted SECURE context by aborting
any preempted SMC during PSCI power management calls. The
abort_std_smc_entry hook of the TSP is called when aborting the SMC
request.
It also exposes this feature as a FAST SMC callable from normal world to
abort preempted SMC with FID TSP_FID_ABORT.

Define and use no_ret macro where no return is expected
...
There are many instances in ARM Trusted Firmware where control is
transferred to functions from which return isn't expected. Such jumps
are made using 'bl' instruction to provide the callee with the location
from which it was jumped to. Additionally, debuggers infer the caller by
examining where 'lr' register points to. If a 'bl' of the nature
described above falls at the end of an assembly function, 'lr' will be
left pointing to a location outside of the function range. This misleads
the debugger back trace.
This patch defines a 'no_ret' macro to be used when jumping to functions
from which return isn't expected. The macro ensures to use 'bl'
instruction for the jump, and also, for debug builds, places a 'nop'
instruction immediately thereafter (unless instructed otherwise) so as
to leave 'lr' pointing within the function range.

to be independent of the linker symbols defined in the linker script
as well as the layout and order of the sections.

Introduce SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA build flag
...
At the moment, all BL images share a similar memory layout: they start
with their code section, followed by their read-only data section.
The two sections are contiguous in memory. Therefore, the end of the
code section and the beginning of the read-only data one might share
a memory page. This forces both to be mapped with the same memory
attributes. As the code needs to be executable, this means that the
read-only data stored on the same memory page as the code are
executable as well. This could potentially be exploited as part of
a security attack.
This patch introduces a new build flag called
SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA, which isolates the code and read-only data
on separate memory pages. This in turn allows independent control of
the access permissions for the code and read-only data.
This has an impact on memory footprint, as padding bytes need to be
introduced between the code and read-only data to ensure the
segragation of the two. To limit the memory cost, the memory layout
of the read-only section has been changed in this case.
- When SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA=0, the layout is unchanged, i.e.
the read-only section still looks like this (padding omitted):
| ... |
+-------------------+
| Exception vectors |
+-------------------+
| Read-only data |
+-------------------+
| Code |
+-------------------+ BLx_BASE
In this case, the linker script provides the limits of the whole
read-only section.
- When SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA=1, the exception vectors and
read-only data are swapped, such that the code and exception
vectors are contiguous, followed by the read-only data. This
gives the following new layout (padding omitted):
| ... |
+-------------------+
| Read-only data |
+-------------------+
| Exception vectors |
+-------------------+
| Code |
+-------------------+ BLx_BASE
In this case, the linker script now exports 2 sets of addresses
instead: the limits of the code and the limits of the read-only
data. Refer to the Firmware Design guide for more details. This
provides platform code with a finer-grained view of the image
layout and allows it to map these 2 regions with the appropriate
access permissions.
Note that SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA applies to all BL images.

TSP: Allow preemption of synchronous S-EL1 interrupt handling
...
Earlier the TSP only ever expected to be preempted during Standard SMC
processing. If a S-EL1 interrupt triggered while in the normal world, it
will routed to S-EL1 `synchronously` for handling. The `synchronous` S-EL1
interrupt handler `tsp_sel1_intr_entry` used to panic if this S-EL1 interrupt
was preempted by another higher priority pending interrupt which should be
handled in EL3 e.g. Group0 interrupt in GICv3.
With this patch, the `tsp_sel1_intr_entry` now expects `TSP_PREEMPTED` as the
return code from the `tsp_common_int_handler` in addition to 0 (interrupt
successfully handled) and in both cases it issues an SMC with id
`TSP_HANDLED_S_EL1_INTR`. The TSPD switches the context and returns back
to normal world. In case a higher priority EL3 interrupt was pending, the
execution will be routed to EL3 where interrupt will be handled. On return
back to normal world, the pending S-EL1 interrupt which was preempted will
get routed to S-EL1 to be handled `synchronously` via `tsp_sel1_intr_entry`.

Enable use of FIQs and IRQs as TSP interrupts

typically signalled as FIQs. On a GICv3 system, these interrupts are signalled
as IRQs instead. The mechanism for handling both types of interrupts is the same

1. adding support for handling IRQs in the exception handling code.
2. removing use of "fiq" in the names of data structures, macros and functions.
The build option TSPD_ROUTE_IRQ_TO_EL3 is deprecated and is replaced with a

former build flag is defined, it will be used to define the value for the
new build flag. The documentation is also updated accordingly.

Unify interrupt return paths from TSP into the TSPD
...
The TSP is expected to pass control back to EL3 if it gets preempted due to
an interrupt while handling a Standard SMC in the following scenarios:
1. An FIQ preempts Standard SMC execution and that FIQ is not a TSP Secure
timer interrupt or is preempted by a higher priority interrupt by the time
the TSP acknowledges it. In this case, the TSP issues an SMC with the ID
as `TSP_EL3_FIQ`. Currently this case is never expected to happen as only
the TSP Secure Timer is expected to generate FIQ.
2. An IRQ preempts Standard SMC execution and in this case the TSP issues
an SMC with the ID as `TSP_PREEMPTED`.
In both the cases, the TSPD hands control back to the normal world and returns
returns an error code to the normal world to indicate that the standard SMC it
had issued has been preempted but not completed.
This patch unifies the handling of these two cases in the TSPD and ensures that
the TSP only uses TSP_PREEMPTED instead of separate SMC IDs. Also instead of 2
separate error codes, SMC_PREEMPTED and TSP_EL3_FIQ, only SMC_PREEMPTED is
returned as error code back to the normal world.
Background information: On a GICv3 system, when the secure world has affinity
routing enabled, in 2. an FIQ will preempt TSP execution instead of an IRQ. The
FIQ could be a result of a Group 0 or a Group 1 NS interrupt. In both case, the
TSPD passes control back to the normal world upon receipt of the TSP_PREEMPTED
SMC. A Group 0 interrupt will immediately preempt execution to EL3 where it
will be handled. This allows for unified interrupt handling in TSP for both
GICv3 and GICv2 systems.

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.

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
