Fix SP804 delay timer on FVP
|
|
Add CCI-400 specific driver to deprecated driver list
|
|
Add compile time `__warn_deprecated` flag to public api's in CCI-400
specific driver so that user is aware of the driver being deprecated.
Similarly, it also adds an error message when `ERROR_DEPRECATED` is set
to prevent succesful compilation if CCI-400 specific driver is used.

This patch fixes several issues with the SP804 delay timer on FVP:
* By default, the SP804 dual timer on FVP runs at 32 KHz. In order
to run the timer at 35 MHz (as specified in the FVP user manual)
the Overwrite bit in the SP810 control register must be set.
* The CLKMULT and CLKDIV definitions are mixed up:
delta(us) = delta(ticks) * T(us) = delta(ticks) / f(MHz)
From the delay function:
delta_us = (delta * ops->clk_mult) / ops->clk_div;
Matching both expressions:
1 / f(MHz) = ops->clk_mult / ops->clk_div
And consequently:
f(MHz) = ops->clk_div / ops->clk_mult
Which, for a 35 MHz timer, translates to:
ops->clk_div = 35
ops->clk_mult = 1
* The comment in the delay timer header file has been corrected:
The ratio of the multiplier and the divider is the clock period
in microseconds, not the frequency.

Fix TZC-400 peripheral detection
|
|
The TZC-400 driver implementation incorrectly uses the component
ID registers to detect the TZC-400 peripheral. As all ARM
peripherals share the same component ID, it doesn't allow to
uniquely identify the TZC-400 peripheral. This patch fixes the
TZC-400 driver by relying on the `part_number_0` and
`part_number_1` fields in the `PID` registers instead.
The `tzc_read_component_id` function has been replaced by
`tzc_read_peripheral_id`, which reads the 'part_number' values
and compares them with the TZC-400 peripheral ID.
Also, it adds a debug assertion to detect when the TZC driver
initialisation function is called multiple times.

Based on SP805 Programmer's model (ARM DDI 0270B). This driver
provides three public APIs:
void sp805_start(uintptr_t base, unsigned long ticks);
void sp805_stop(uintptr_t base);
void sp805_refresh(uintptr_t base, unsigned long ticks);
Upon start, the watchdog starts counting down from the number of
ticks specified. When the count reaches 0 an interrupt is triggered.
The watchdog restarts counting down from the number of ticks
specified. If the count reaches 0 again, the system is reset. A
mechanism to handle the interrupt has not been implemented. Instead,
the API to refresh the watchdog should be used instead to prevent a
system reset.

This patch deprecates the legacy ARM GIC driver and related header files
(arm_gic.h, gic_v2.h, gic_v3.h). For GICv2 systems, platform ports should
use the GICv2 driver in include/drivers/arm/gicv2.h and for GICv3 systems,
platform ports should use the GICv3 driver in include/drivers/arm/gicv3.h
NOTE: The ARM Legacy GIC drivers have been deprecated with this patch.
Platform ports are encouraged to migrate to the new GIC drivers.

This patch adds a driver for ARM GICv2 systems, example GIC-400. Unlike
the existing GIC driver in `include/drivers/arm/arm_gic.h`, this driver
is optimised for GICv2 and does not support GICv3 systems in GICv2
compatibility mode. The driver interface has been implemented in
`drivers/arm/gic/v2/gicv2_main.c`. The corresponding header is in
`include/drivers/arm/gicv2.h`. Helper functions are implemented in
`drivers/arm/gic/v2/gicv2_helpers.c` and are accessible through the
`drivers/arm/gic/v2/gicv2_private.h` header.

This patch adds a driver for ARM GICv3 systems that need to run software
stacks where affinity routing is enabled across all privileged exception
levels for both security states. This driver is a partial implementation
of the ARM Generic Interrupt Controller Architecture Specification, GIC
architecture version 3.0 and version 4.0 (ARM IHI 0069A). The driver does
not cater for legacy support of interrupts and asymmetric configurations.
The existing GIC driver has been preserved unchanged. The common code for
GICv2 and GICv3 systems has been refactored into a new file,
`drivers/arm/gic/common/gic_common.c`. The corresponding header is in
`include/drivers/arm/gic_common.h`.
The driver interface is implemented in `drivers/arm/gic/v3/gicv3_main.c`.
The corresponding header is in `include/drivers/arm/gicv3.h`. Helper
functions are implemented in `drivers/arm/gic/v3/arm_gicv3_helpers.c`
and are accessible through the `drivers/arm/gic/v3/gicv3_private.h`
header.

IO_RESOURCES_EXHAUSTED to match the corresponding definitions in
errno.h:
#define IO_FAIL (-ENOENT)

#define IO_RESOURCES_EXHAUSTED (-ENOMEM)
NOTE: please note that the IO_FAIL, IO_NOT_SUPPORTED and
IO_RESOURCES_EXHAUSTED definitions are considered deprecated
and their usage should be avoided. Callers should rely on errno.h
definitions when checking the return values of IO functions.

Bug fix in the SP804 dual timer driver
|
|
The generic delay timer driver expects a pointer to a timer_ops_t
structure containing the specific timer driver information. It
doesn't make a copy of the structure, instead it just keeps the
pointer. Therefore, this pointer must remain valid over time.
The SP804 driver doesn't satisfy this requirement. The
sp804_timer_init() macro creates a temporary instanciation of the
timer_ops_t structure on the fly and passes it to the generic
delay timer. When this temporary instanciation gets deallocated,
the generic delay timer is left with a pointer to invalid data.
This patch fixes this bug by statically allocating the SP804
timer_ops_t structure.

Currently, on ARM platforms(ex. Juno) non-secure access to specific
peripheral regions, config registers which are inside and outside CSS
is done in the soc_css_security_setup(). This patch separates the CSS
security setup from the SOC security setup in the css_security_setup().
The CSS security setup involves programming of the internal NIC to
provide access to regions inside the CSS. This is needed only in
Juno, hence Juno implements it in its board files as css_init_nic400().

This patch changes the type of the base address parameter in the
ARM device driver APIs to uintptr_t (GIC, CCI, TZC400, PL011). The
uintptr_t type allows coverage of the whole memory space and to
perform arithmetic operations on the addresses. ARM platform code
has also been updated to use uintptr_t as GIC base address in the
configuration.

This patch adds the following mbedTLS based libraries:
* Cryptographic library
It is used by the crypto module to verify a digital signature
and a hash. This library relies on mbedTLS to perform the
cryptographic operations. mbedTLS sources must be obtained
separately.
Two key algorithms are currently supported:
* RSA-2048
* ECDSA-SECP256R1
The platform is responsible for picking up the required
algorithm by defining the 'MBEDTLS_KEY_ALG' variable in the
platform makefile. Available options are:
* 'rsa' (for RSA-2048) (default option)
* 'ecdsa' (for ECDSA-SECP256R1)
Hash algorithm currently supported is SHA-256.
* Image parser library
Used by the image parser module to extract the authentication
parameters stored in X509v3 certificates.

This patch adds the authentication framework that will be used as
the base to implement Trusted Board Boot in the Trusted Firmware.
The framework comprises the following modules:
- Image Parser Module (IPM)
This module is responsible for interpreting images, check
their integrity and extract authentication information from
them during Trusted Board Boot.
The module currently supports three types of images i.e.
raw binaries, X509v3 certificates and any type specific to
a platform. An image parser library must be registered for
each image type (the only exception is the raw image parser,
which is included in the main module by default).
Each parser library (if used) must export a structure in a
specific linker section which contains function pointers to:
1. Initialize the library
2. Check the integrity of the image type supported by
the library
3. Extract authentication information from the image
- Cryptographic Module (CM)
This module is responsible for verifying digital signatures
and hashes. It relies on an external cryptographic library
to perform the cryptographic operations.
To register a cryptographic library, the library must use the
REGISTER_CRYPTO_LIB macro, passing function pointers to:
1. Initialize the library
2. Verify a digital signature
3. Verify a hash
Failing to register a cryptographic library will generate
a build time error.
- Authentication Module (AM)
This module provides methods to authenticate an image, like
hash comparison or digital signatures. It uses the image parser
module to extract authentication parameters, the crypto module
to perform cryptographic operations and the Chain of Trust to
authenticate the images.
The Chain of Trust (CoT) is a data structure that defines the
dependencies between images and the authentication methods
that must be followed to authenticate an image.
The Chain of Trust, when added, must provide a header file named
cot_def.h with the following definitions:
- COT_MAX_VERIFIED_PARAMS
Integer value indicating the maximum number of authentication
parameters an image can present. This value will be used by the
authentication module to allocate the memory required to load
the parameters in the image descriptor.

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.

Add a delay timer driver for the ARM SP804 dual timer.
This driver only uses the first timer, called timer 1 in the
SP804 Technical Reference Manual (ARM DDI 0271D).
To use this driver, the BSP must provide three constants:
* The base address of the SP804 dual timer
* The clock multiplier
* The clock divider
The BSP is responsible for calling sp804_timer_init(). The SP804
driver instantiates a constant timer_ops_t and calls the generic
timer_init().

The API is simple. The BSP or specific timer driver creates an
instance of timer_ops_t, fills in the timer specific data, then calls
timer_init(). The timer specific data includes a function pointer
to return the timer value and a clock multiplier/divider. The ratio
of the multiplier and the divider is the clock frequency in MHz.
After that, mdelay() or udelay() can be called to delay execution for
the specified time (milliseconds or microseconds, respectively).

The ARM GIC driver treats the entire contents of the GICC_HPPIR as the interrupt
ID instead of just bits[9:0]. This could result in an SGI being treated as a
Group 1 interrupt on a GICv2 system.
This patch introduces a mask to retrieve only the ID from a read of GICC_HPPIR,
GICC_IAR and similar registers. The value read from these registers is masked
with this constant prior to use as an interrupt ID.

Even though both CCI-400 and CCI-500 IPs have different configurations
with respect to the number and types of supported interfaces, their
register offsets and programming sequences are similar. This patch
creates a common driver for enabling and disabling snoop transactions
and DVMs with both the IPs.
New platform ports which implement one of these IPs should use this
common driver. Existing platform ports which implement CCI-400 should
migrate to the common driver as the standalone CCI-400 will be
deprecated in the future.

Improvements to ARM GIC driver
Juno: Use the generic ARM GIC driver
|
|
This patch introduces several improvements to the ARM GIC driver:
* In function gicd_set_itargetsr(), target CPU is specified using
the same bit mask detailed in the GICD_ITARGETSRn register instead
of the CPU linear ID, removing the dependency between bit position
and linear ID in the platform porting. The current CPU bit mask
may be obtained by reading GICD_ITARGETSR0.
* PPIs and SGIs are initialized in arm_gic_pcpu_distif_setup().
SPIs are initialized in arm_gic_distif_setup().
* By default, non secure interrupts are assigned the maximum
priority allowed to a non secure interrupt (defined by
GIC_HIGHEST_NS_PRIORITY).
* GICR base address is allowed to be NULL for GICv1 and GICv2.

This patch configures the TrustZone Controller in Juno to split
the 2GB DDR-DRAM memory at 0x80000000 into Secure and Non-Secure
regions:
- Secure DDR-DRAM: top 16 MB, except for the last 2 MB which are
used by the SCP for DDR retraining
- Non-Secure DDR-DRAM: remaining DRAM starting at base address
Build option PLAT_TSP_LOCATION selects the location of the secure
payload (BL3-2):
- 'tsram' : Trusted SRAM (default option)
- 'dram' : Secure region in the DDR-DRAM (set by the TrustZone
controller)
The MMU memory map has been updated to give BL2 permission to load
BL3-2 into the DDR-DRAM secure region.

The TZC-400 driver previously allowed the possibility of multiple
controller instances to be present in the same executable. This
was unnecessary since there will only ever be one instance.
This change simplifies the tzc_init() function to only take the
base address argument needed by implementation, conforming to the
driver initialization model of other drivers. It also hides some
of the implementation details that were previously exposed by the
API.

The intent of io_init() was to allow platform ports to provide
a data object (io_plat_data_t) to the IO storage framework to
allocate into. The abstraction was incomplete because io_plat_data_t
uses a platform defined constant and the IO storage framework
internally allocates other arrays using platform defined constants.
This change simplifies the implementation by instantiating the
supporting objects in the IO storage framework itself. There is now
no need for the platform to call io_init().
The FVP port has been updated accordingly.
THIS CHANGE REQUIRES ALL PLATFORM PORTS THAT USE THE IO STORAGE
FRAMEWORK TO BE UDPATED.

This patch introduces a set of functions which allow generic firmware
code e.g. the interrupt management framework to access the platform
interrupt controller. APIs for finding the type and id of the highest
pending interrupt, acknowledging and EOIing an interrupt and finding
the security state of an interrupt have been added. It is assumed that
the platform interrupt controller implements the v2.0 of the ARM GIC
architecture specification. Support for v3.0 of the specification for
managing interrupts in EL3 and the platform port will be added in the
future.

This patch introduces a framework for registering interrupts routed to
EL3. The interrupt routing model is governed by the SCR_EL3.IRQ and
FIQ bits and the security state an interrupt is generated in. The
framework recognizes three type of interrupts depending upon which
exception level and security state they should be handled in
i.e. Secure EL1 interrupts, Non-secure interrupts and EL3
interrupts. It provides an API and macros that allow a runtime service
to register an handler for a type of interrupt and specify the routing
model. The framework validates the routing model and uses the context
management framework to ensure that it is applied to the SCR_EL3 prior
to entry into the target security state. It saves the handler in
internal data structures. An API is provided to retrieve the handler
when an interrupt of a particular type is asserted. Registration is
expected to be done once by the primary CPU. The same handler and
routing model is used for all CPUs.
Support for EL3 interrupts will be added to the framework in the
future. A makefile flag has been added to allow the FVP port choose
between ARM GIC v2 and v3 support in EL3. The latter version is
currently unsupported.
A framework for handling interrupts in BL3-1 will be introduced in
subsequent patches. The default routing model in the absence of any
handlers expects no interrupts to be routed to EL3.

Update code base to remove variables from the .data section,
mainly by using const static data where possible and adding
the const specifier as required. Most changes are to the IO
subsystem, including the framework APIs. The FVP power
management code is also affected.
Delay initialization of the global static variable,
next_image_type in bl31_main.c, until it is realy needed.
Doing this moves the variable from the .data to the .bss
section.
Also review the IO interface for inconsistencies, using
uintptr_t where possible instead of void *. Remove the
io_handle and io_dev_handle typedefs, which were
unnecessary, replacing instances with uintptr_t.
Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#107.
