doc: Move documents into subdirectories
This change creates the following directories under docs/ in order to provide a grouping for the content: - components - design - getting_started - perf - process In each of these directories an index.rst file is created and this serves as an index / landing page for each of the groups when the pages are compiled. Proper layout of the top-level table of contents relies on this directory/index structure. Without this patch it is possible to build the documents correctly with Sphinx but the output looks messy because there is no overall hierarchy.

+TF-A Build Instructions
+======================
+
+This section describes how to compile the ARM Trusted Firmware (TF-A) project for Marvell's platforms.
+
+Build Instructions
+------------------
+(1) Set the cross compiler::
+
+ > export CROSS_COMPILE=/path/to/toolchain/aarch64-linux-gnu-
+
+(2) Set path for FIP images:
+
+ Set U-Boot image path (relatively to TF-A root or absolute path)::
+
+ > export BL33=path/to/u-boot.bin
+
+ For example: if U-Boot project (and its images) is located at ~/project/u-boot,
+ BL33 should be ~/project/u-boot/u-boot.bin
+
+ .. note::
+
+ u-boot.bin should be used and not u-boot-spl.bin
+
+ Set MSS/SCP image path (mandatory only for Armada80x0)::
+
+ > export SCP_BL2=path/to/mrvl_scp_bl2*.img
+
+(3) Armada-37x0 build requires WTP tools installation.
+
+ See below in the section "Tools and external components installation".
+ Install ARM 32-bit cross compiler, which is required for building WTMI image for CM3::
+
+ > sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi
+
+(4) Clean previous build residuals (if any)::
+
+ > make distclean
+
+(5) Build TF-A:
+
+ There are several build options:
+
+ - DEBUG: default is without debug information (=0). in order to enable it use DEBUG=1
+ Must be disabled when building UART recovery images due to current console driver
+ implementation that is not compatible with Xmodem protocol used for boot image download.
+
+ - LOG_LEVEL: defines the level of logging which will be purged to the default output port.
+
+ LOG_LEVEL_NONE 0
+ LOG_LEVEL_ERROR 10
+ LOG_LEVEL_NOTICE 20
+ LOG_LEVEL_WARNING 30
+ LOG_LEVEL_INFO 40
+ LOG_LEVEL_VERBOSE 50
+
+ - USE_COHERENT_MEM: This flag determines whether to include the coherent memory region in the
+ BL memory map or not.
+
+ - LLC_ENABLE: Flag defining the LLC (L3) cache state. The cache is enabled by default (LLC_ENABLE=1).
+
+ - MARVELL_SECURE_BOOT: build trusted(=1)/non trusted(=0) image, default is non trusted.
+
+ - BLE_PATH:
+ Points to BLE (Binary ROM extension) sources folder. Only required for A8K builds.
+ The parameter is optional, its default value is "plat/marvell/a8k/common/ble".
+
+ - MV_DDR_PATH:
+ For A7/8K, use this parameter to point to mv_ddr driver sources to allow BLE build. For A37x0,
+ it is used for ddr_tool build.
+ Usage example: MV_DDR_PATH=path/to/mv_ddr
+ The parameter is optional for A7/8K, when this parameter is not set, the mv_ddr
+ sources are expected to be located at: drivers/marvell/mv_ddr. However, the parameter
+ is necessary for A37x0.
+ For the mv_ddr source location, check the section "Tools and external components installation"
+
+ - DDR_TOPOLOGY: For Armada37x0 only, the DDR topology map index/name, default is 0.
+ Supported Options:
+ - DDR3 1CS (0): DB-88F3720-DDR3-Modular (512MB); EspressoBIN (512MB)
+ - DDR4 1CS (1): DB-88F3720-DDR4-Modular (512MB)
+ - DDR3 2CS (2): EspressoBIN V3-V5 (1GB)
+ - DDR4 2CS (3): DB-88F3720-DDR4-Modular (4GB)
+ - DDR3 1CS (4): DB-88F3720-DDR3-Modular (1GB)
+ - DDR4 1CS (5): EspressoBin V7 (1GB)
+ - DDR4 2CS (6): EspressoBin V7 (2GB)
+ - CUSTOMER (CUST): Customer board, DDR3 1CS 512MB
+
+ - CLOCKSPRESET: For Armada37x0 only, the clock tree configuration preset including CPU and DDR frequency,
+ default is CPU_800_DDR_800.
+ - CPU_600_DDR_600 - CPU at 600 MHz, DDR at 600 MHz
+ - CPU_800_DDR_800 - CPU at 800 MHz, DDR at 800 MHz
+ - CPU_1000_DDR_800 - CPU at 1000 MHz, DDR at 800 MHz
+ - CPU_1200_DDR_750 - CPU at 1200 MHz, DDR at 750 MHz
+
+ - BOOTDEV: For Armada37x0 only, the flash boot device, default is SPINOR,
+ Currently, Armada37x0 only supports SPINOR, SPINAND, EMMCNORM and SATA:
+
+ - SPINOR - SPI NOR flash boot
+ - SPINAND - SPI NAND flash boot
+ - EMMCNORM - eMMC Download Mode
+ Download boot loader or program code from eMMC flash into CM3 or CA53
+ Requires full initialization and command sequence
+ - SATA - SATA device boot
+
+ - PARTNUM: For Armada37x0 only, the boot partition number, default is 0. To boot from eMMC, the value
+ should be aligned with the parameter in U-Boot with name of CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART, whose
+ value by default is 1.
+ For details about CONFIG_SYS_MMC_ENV_PART, please refer to the U-Boot build instructions.
+
+ - WTMI_IMG: For Armada37x0 only, the path of the WTMI image can point to an image which does
+ nothing, an image which supports EFUSE or a customized CM3 firmware binary. The default image
+ is wtmi.bin that built from sources in WTP folder, which is the next option. If the default
+ image is OK, then this option should be skipped.
+
+ - WTP: For Armada37x0 only, use this parameter to point to wtptools source code directory, which
+ can be found as a3700_utils.zip in the release.
+ Usage example: WTP=/path/to/a3700_utils
+
+ For example, in order to build the image in debug mode with log level up to 'notice' level run::
+
+ > make DEBUG=1 USE_COHERENT_MEM=0 LOG_LEVEL=20 PLAT=<MARVELL_PLATFORM> all fip
+
+ And if we want to build a Armada37x0 image in debug mode with log level up to 'notice' level,
+ the image has the preset CPU at 1000 MHz, preset DDR3 at 800 MHz, the DDR topology of DDR4 2CS,
+ the image boot from SPI NOR flash partition 0, and the image is non trusted in WTP, the command
+ line is as following::
+
+ > make DEBUG=1 USE_COHERENT_MEM=0 LOG_LEVEL=20 CLOCKSPRESET=CPU_1000_DDR_800 \
+ MARVELL_SECURE_BOOT=0 DDR_TOPOLOGY=3 BOOTDEV=SPINOR PARTNUM=0 PLAT=a3700 all fip
+
+ Supported MARVELL_PLATFORM are:
+ - a3700 (for both A3720 DB and EspressoBin)
+ - a70x0
+ - a70x0_amc (for AMC board)
+ - a80x0
+ - a80x0_mcbin (for MacciatoBin)
+
+Special Build Flags
+--------------------
+ - PLAT_RECOVERY_IMAGE_ENABLE: When set this option to enable secondary recovery function when build
+ atf. In order to build UART recovery image this operation should be disabled for a70x0 and a80x0
+ because of hardware limitation (boot from secondary image can interrupt UART recovery process).
+ This MACRO definition is set in plat/marvell/a8k/common/include/platform_def.h file
+
+(for more information about build options, please refer to section 'Summary of build options' in TF-A user-guide:
+ https://github.com/ARM-software/arm-trusted-firmware/blob/master/docs/user-guide.md)
+
+
+Build output
+-------------
+Marvell's TF-A compilation generates 7 files:
+ - ble.bin - BLe image
+ - bl1.bin - BL1 image
+ - bl2.bin - BL2 image
+ - bl31.bin - BL31 image
+ - fip.bin - FIP image (contains BL2, BL31 & BL33 (U-Boot) images)
+ - boot-image.bin - TF-A image (contains BL1 and FIP images)
+ - flash-image.bin - Image which contains boot-image.bin and SPL image;
+ should be placed on the boot flash/device.
+
+
+Tools and external components installation
+==========================================
+
+Armada37x0 Builds require installation of 3 components
+-------------------------------------------------------
+
+(1) ARM cross compiler capable of building images for the service CPU (CM3).
+ This component is usually included in the Linux host packages.
+ On Debian/Ubuntu hosts the default GNU ARM tool chain can be installed
+ using the following command::
+
+ > sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi
+
+ Only if required, the default tool chain prefix "arm-linux-gnueabi-" can be
+ overwritten using the environment variable CROSS_CM3.
+ Example for BASH shell::
+
+ > export CROSS_CM3=/opt/arm-cross/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi
+
+(2) DDR initialization library sources (mv_ddr) available at the following repository
+ (use the "mv_ddr-armada-atf-mainline" branch)::
+ https://github.com/MarvellEmbeddedProcessors/mv-ddr-marvell.git
+
+(3) Armada3700 tools available at the following repository (use the latest release branch)::
+ https://github.com/MarvellEmbeddedProcessors/A3700-utils-marvell.git
+
+Armada70x0 and Armada80x0 Builds require installation of an additional component

+
+TF-A Porting Guide
+=================
+
+This section describes how to port TF-A to a customer board, assuming that the SoC being used is already supported
+in TF-A.
+
+
+Source Code Structure
+---------------------
+- The customer platform specific code shall reside under "plat/marvell/<soc family>/<soc>_cust"
+ (e.g. 'plat/marvell/a8k/a7040_cust').
+- The platform name for build purposes is called "<soc>_cust" (e.g. a7040_cust).
+- The build system will reuse all files from within the soc directory, and take only the porting
+ files from the customer platform directory.
+
+Files that require porting are located at "plat/marvell/<soc family>/<soc>_cust" directory.
+
+
+Armada-70x0/Armada-80x0 Porting
+-------------------------------
+
+ - SoC Physical Address Map (marvell_plat_config.c):
+ - This file describes the SoC physical memory mapping to be used for the CCU, IOWIN, AXI-MBUS and IOB
+ address decode units (Refer to the functional spec for more details).
+ - In most cases, using the default address decode windows should work OK.
+ - In cases where a special physical address map is needed (e.g. Special size for PCIe MEM windows,
+ large memory mapped SPI flash...), then porting of the SoC memory map is required.
+ - Note: For a detailed information on how CCU, IOWIN, AXI-MBUS & IOB work, please refer to the SoC functional spec,
+ and under "docs/marvell/misc/mvebu-[ccu/iob/amb/io-win].txt" files.
+
+ - boot loader recovery (marvell_plat_config.c):
+ - Background:
+ boot rom can skip the current image and choose to boot from next position if a specific value
+ (0xDEADB002) is returned by the ble main function. This feature is used for boot loader recovery
+ by booting from a valid flash-image saved in next position on flash (e.g. address 2M in SPI flash).
+
+ Supported options to implement the skip request are:
+ - GPIO
+ - I2C
+ - User defined
+
+ - Porting:
+ Under marvell_plat_config.c, implement struct skip_image that includes specific board parameters.
+ .. warning:: to disable this feature make sure the struct skip_image is not implemented.
+
+ - Example:
+ In A7040-DB specific implementation (plat/marvell/a8k/a70x0/board/marvell_plat_config.c),
+ the image skip is implemented using GPIO: mpp 33 (SW5).
+
+ Before resetting the board make sure there is a valid image on the next flash address:
+ -tftp [valid address] flash-image.bin
+ -sf update [valid address] 0x2000000 [size]
+
+ Press reset and keep pressing the button connected to the chosen GPIO pin. A skip image request
+ message is printed on the screen and boot rom boots from the saved image at the next position.
+
+ - DDR Porting (dram_port.c):
+ - This file defines the dram topology and parameters of the target board.
+ - The DDR code is part of the BLE component, which is an extension of ARM Trusted Firmware (TF-A).
+ - The DDR driver called mv_ddr is released separately apart from TF-A sources.
+ - The BLE and consequently, the DDR init code is executed at the early stage of the boot process.
+ - Each supported platform of the TF-A has its own DDR porting file called dram_port.c located at
+ ``atf/plat/marvell/a8k/<platform>/board`` directory.
+ - Please refer to '<path_to_mv_ddr_sources>/doc/porting_guide.txt' for detailed porting description.
+ - The build target directory is "build/<platform>/release/ble".
+
+ - Comphy Porting (phy-porting-layer.h or phy-default-porting-layer.h)
+ - Background:
+ Some of the comphy's parameters value depend on the HW connection between the SoC and the PHY. Every
+ board type has specific HW characteristics like wire length. Due to those differences some comphy
+ parameters vary between board types. Therefore each board type can have its own list of values for
+ all relevant comphy parameters. The PHY porting layer specifies which parameters need to be suited and
+ the board designer should provide relevant values.
+
+ .. seealso::
+ For XFI/SFI comphy type there is procedure "rx_training" which eases process of suiting some of
+ the parameters. Please see :ref:`uboot_cmd` section: rx_training.
+
+ The PHY porting layer simplifies updating static values per board type, which are now grouped in one place.
+
+ .. note::
+ The parameters for the same type of comphy may vary even for the same board type, it is because
+ the lanes from comphy-x to some PHY may have different HW characteristic than lanes from
+ comphy-y to the same (multiplexed) or other PHY.
+
+ - Porting:
+ The porting layer for PHY was introduced in TF-A. There is one file
+ ``drivers/marvell/comphy/phy-default-porting-layer.h`` which contains the defaults. Those default
+ parameters are used only if there is no appropriate phy-porting-layer.h file under:
+ ``plat/marvell/<soc family>/<platform>/board/phy-porting-layer.h``. If the phy-porting-layer.h exists,
+ the phy-default-porting-layer.h is not going to be included.
+
+ .. warning::
+ Not all comphy types are already reworked to support the PHY porting layer, currently the porting
+ layer is supported for XFI/SFI and SATA comphy types.
+
+ The easiest way to prepare the PHY porting layer for custom board is to copy existing example to a new
+ platform:
+
+ - cp ``plat/marvell/a8k/a80x0/board/phy-porting-layer.h`` "plat/marvell/<soc family>/<platform>/board/phy-porting-layer.h"
+ - adjust relevant parameters or
+ - if different comphy index is used for specific feature, move it to proper table entry and then adjust.
+
+ .. note::
+ The final table size with comphy parameters can be different, depending on the CP module count for
+ given SoC type.
+
+ - Example:
+ Example porting layer for armada-8040-db is under: ``plat/marvell/a8k/a80x0/board/phy-porting-layer.h``
+
+ .. note::
+ If there is no PHY porting layer for new platform (missing phy-porting-layer.h), the default
+ values are used (drivers/marvell/comphy/phy-default-porting-layer.h) and the user is warned:
+
+ .. warning::
+ "Using default comphy parameters - it may be required to suit them for your board".
