Build: Correct Unix specific echo commands
...
Some recent changes have added direct use of the echo command without
parameters. This fails on a Windows shell, because echo without
parameters reports the mode ("ECHO is on").
This is corrected using the ECHO_BLANK_LINE macro already provided
for that purpose.

Build: Fix parallel build
...
2 problems were found, but are in one change to avoid submitting a patch
that might fail to build. The problems were:
1. The macro MAKE_PREREQ_DIR has a minor bug, in that it is capable of
generating recursive dependencies.
2. The inclusion of BUILD_DIR in TEMP_OBJ_DIRS left no explicit
dependency, BUILD_DIR might not exist when subdirectories are
created by a thread on another CPU.
This fix corrects these with the following changes:
1. MAKE_PREREQ_DIR does nothing for a direct self dependency.
2. BUILD_DIR is built using MAKE_PREREQ_DIR.
3. BUILD_DIR is an explicit prerequisite of all OBJ_DIRS.

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.

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.

Introduce locking primitives using CAS instruction
...
The ARMv8v.1 architecture extension has introduced support for far
atomics, which includes compare-and-swap. Compare and Swap instruction
is only available for AArch64.
Introduce build options to choose the architecture versions to target
ARM Trusted Firmware:
- ARM_ARCH_MAJOR: selects the major version of target ARM
Architecture. Default value is 8.
- ARM_ARCH_MINOR: selects the minor version of target ARM
Architecture. Default value is 0.
When:
(ARM_ARCH_MAJOR > 8) || ((ARM_ARCH_MAJOR == 8) && (ARM_ARCH_MINOR >= 1)),
for AArch64, Compare and Swap instruction is used to implement spin
locks. Otherwise, the implementation falls back to using
load-/store-exclusive instructions.
Update user guide, and introduce a section in Firmware Design guide to
summarize support for features introduced in ARMv8 Architecture
Extensions.

fiptool: support --align option to add desired alignment to image offset
...
The current fiptool packs all the images without any padding between
them. So, the offset to each image has no alignment. This is not
efficient, for example, when the FIP is read from a block-oriented
device.
For example, (e)MMC is accessed by block-addressing. The block size
is 512 byte. So, the best case is each image is aligned by 512 byte
since the DMA engine can transfer the whole of the image to its load
address directly. The worst case is the offset does not have even
DMA-capable alignment (this is where we stand now). In this case,
we need to transfer every block to a bounce buffer, then do memcpy()
from the bounce buffer to our final destination. At least, this
should work with the abstraction by the block I/O layer, but the
CPU-intervention for the whole data transfer makes it really slow.
This commit adds a new option --align to the fiptool. This option,
if given, requests the tool to align each component in the FIP file
by the specified byte. Also, add a new Make option FIP_ALIGN for
easier access to this feature; users can give something like
FIP_ALIGN=512 from the command line, or add "FIP_ALIGN := 512" to
their platform.mk file.

Build: Fix parallel building

Building fvp
make: *** No rule to make target 'build/fvp/release/bl1/',

make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
The cause of the failure is that $(dir ) leaves a trailing / on the
directory names. It must be ripped off to let Make create the
directory.
There are some ways to fix the issue. Here, I chose to make MAKE_LD
look like MAKE_C and MAKE_S because bl*_dirs seems the central place
of making directories.

Build: generate .d file at the same time as object is created
...
Currently, .d files are generated before any objects are built.
So, IS_ANYTHING_TO_BUILD flag is needed to avoid such processing for
non-build targets.
There is a cleverer way; just create a .d file simultaneously when
the corresponding object is created. No need to have separate rules
for .d files.
This commit will also fix a bug; -D$(IMAGE) is defined for $(OBJ),
but not for $(PREREQUISITES). So, .d files are generated with
different macro sets from those for .o files, then wrong .d files
are generated.
For example, in lib/cpus/aarch64/cpu_helpers.S
#if IMAGE_BL31
#include <cpu_data.h>
#endif
<cpu_data.h> is parsed for the object when built for BL31, but the
.d file does not pick up that dependency.
With this commit, the compiler will generate .o and .d at the same
time, guaranteeing they are generated under the same circumstances.

Replace fip_create with fiptool
...
fiptool provides a more consistent and intuitive interface compared to
the fip_create program. It serves as a better base to build on more
features in the future.
fiptool supports various subcommands. Below are the currently
supported subcommands:
1) info - List the images contained in a FIP file.
2) create - Create a new FIP file with the given images.
3) update - Update an existing FIP with the given images.
4) unpack - Extract a selected set or all the images from a FIP file.
5) remove - Remove images from a FIP file. This is a new command that
was not present in fip_create.
To create a new FIP file, replace "fip_create" with "fiptool create".
To update a FIP file, replace "fip_create" with "fiptool update".
To dump the contents of a FIP file, replace "fip_create --dump" with
"fiptool info".
A compatibility script that emulates the basic functionality of
fip_create is provided. Existing scripts might or might not work with
the compatibility script. Users are strongly encouraged to migrate to
fiptool.

Give user's compiler flags precedence over default ones
...
The user can provide additional CFLAGS to use when building TF.
However, these custom CFLAGS are currently prepended to the
standard CFLAGS that are hardcoded in the TF build system. This
is an issue because when providing conflicting compiler flags
(e.g. different optimisations levels like -O1 and -O0), the last
one on the command line usually takes precedence. This means that
the user flags get overriden.
To address this problem, this patch separates the TF CFLAGS from
the user CFLAGS. The former are now stored in the TF_CFLAGS make
variable, whereas the CFLAGS make variable is untouched and reserved
for the user. The order of the 2 sets of flags is enforced when
invoking the compiler.

Make:Improve version string generation portability
...
To get round problems encountered when building in a DOS build
environment the generation of the .o file containing build identifier
strings is modified.
The problems encounterred were:
1. DOS echo doesn't strip ' characters from the output text.
2. git is not available from CMD.EXE so the BUILD_STRING value needs
some other origin.
A BUILD_STRING value of "development build" is used for now.
MAKE_BUILD_STRINGS is used to customise build string generation in a DOS
environment. This variable is not defined in the UNIX build environment
make file helper, and so the existing build string generation behaviour
is retained in these build environments.
NOTE: This commit completes a cumulative series aimed at improving
build portability across development environments.
This enables the build to run on several new build environments,
if the relevant tools are available.
At this point the build is tested on Windows 7 Enterprise SP1,
using CMD.EXE, Cygwin and Msys (MinGW),as well as a native
Linux envionment". The Windows platform builds used
aarch64-none-elf-gcc.exe 4.9.1. CMD.EXE and Msys used Gnu
Make 3.81, cygwin used Gnu Make 4.1.
CAVEAT: The cert_create tool build is not tested on the Windows
platforms (openssl-for-windows has a GPL license).

Because of command differences in some build environments the "inline"
method of generating the build directory structure is not portable.
(e.g. in DOS environments the mkdir shell command fails if a directory
already exists, whereas in UNIX environments it succeeds.)
To improve portability we generate the directories needed using make,
but use the "order-only prerequisites" feature of make to prevent writes
of files into the directories generating re-builds, as suggested in the
GNU make Manual (Version 4.1 September 2014).

This patch updates the fip_create command line options to follow the

NOTE: users that build the FIP by calling the fip_create tool directly
from the command line must update the command line options in their
scripts. Users that build the FIP by invoking the main ARM TF Makefile
should not notice any difference.
