This patch provides the following features and makes modifications
listed below:
- Individual APIAKey key generation for each CPU.
- New key generation on every BL31 warm boot and TSP CPU On event.
- Per-CPU storage of APIAKey added in percpu_data[]
of cpu_data structure.
- `plat_init_apiakey()` function replaced with `plat_init_apkey()`
which returns 128-bit value and uses Generic timer physical counter
value to increase the randomness of the generated key.
The new function can be used for generation of all ARMv8.3-PAuth keys
- ARMv8.3-PAuth specific code placed in `lib\extensions\pauth`.
- New `pauth_init_enable_el1()` and `pauth_init_enable_el3()` functions
generate, program and enable APIAKey_EL1 for EL1 and EL3 respectively;
pauth_disable_el1()` and `pauth_disable_el3()` functions disable
PAuth for EL1 and EL3 respectively;
`pauth_load_bl31_apiakey()` loads saved per-CPU APIAKey_EL1 from
cpu-data structure.
- Combined `save_gp_pauth_registers()` function replaces calls to
`save_gp_registers()` and `pauth_context_save()`;
`restore_gp_pauth_registers()` replaces `pauth_context_restore()`
and `restore_gp_registers()` calls.
- `restore_gp_registers_eret()` function removed with corresponding
code placed in `el3_exit()`.
- Fixed the issue when `pauth_t pauth_ctx` structure allocated space
for 12 uint64_t PAuth registers instead of 10 by removal of macro
CTX_PACGAKEY_END from `include/lib/el3_runtime/aarch64/context.h`
and assigning its value to CTX_PAUTH_REGS_END.
- Use of MODE_SP_ELX and MODE_SP_EL0 macro definitions
in `msr spsel` instruction instead of hard-coded values.
- Changes in documentation related to ARMv8.3-PAuth and ARMv8.5-BTI.

NOTE: AARCH32/AARCH64 macros are now deprecated in favor of __aarch64__.
All common C compilers pre-define the same macros to signal which
architecture the code is being compiled for: __arm__ for AArch32 (or
earlier versions) and __aarch64__ for AArch64. There's no need for TF-A
to define its own custom macros for this. In order to unify code with
the export headers (which use __aarch64__ to avoid another dependency),
let's deprecate the AARCH32 and AARCH64 macros and switch the code base
over to the pre-defined standard macro. (Since it is somewhat
unintuitive that __arm__ only means AArch32, let's standardize on only
using __aarch64__.)

This patch adds the functionality needed for platforms to provide
Branch Target Identification (BTI) extension, introduced to AArch64
in Armv8.5-A by adding BTI instruction used to mark valid targets
for indirect branches. The patch sets new GP bit [50] to the stage 1
Translation Table Block and Page entries to denote guarded EL3 code
pages which will cause processor to trap instructions in protected
pages trying to perform an indirect branch to any instruction other
than BTI.
BTI feature is selected by BRANCH_PROTECTION option which supersedes
the previous ENABLE_PAUTH used for Armv8.3-A Pointer Authentication
and is disabled by default. Enabling BTI requires compiler support
and was tested with GCC versions 9.0.0, 9.0.1 and 10.0.0.
The assembly macros and helpers are modified to accommodate the BTI
instruction.
This is an experimental feature.
Note. The previous ENABLE_PAUTH build option to enable PAuth in EL3
is now made as an internal flag and BRANCH_PROTECTION flag should be
used instead to enable Pointer Authentication.
Note. USE_LIBROM=1 option is currently not supported.

Apply stricter speculative load restriction
|
|
Prior to entry into BL32 we set the SPSR by way of msr spsr, r1.
This unfortunately only writes the bits f->[31:24] and c->[7:0].
This patch updates the bl2 exit path to write the x->[15:8] and c->[7:0]
fields of the SPSR. For the purposes of initial setup of the SPSR the x and
c fields should be sufficient and importantly will capture the necessary
lower-order control bits that f:c alone do not.
This is important to do to ensure the SPSR is set to the mode the platform
intends prior to performing an eret.

The SCTLR.DSSBS bit is zero by default thus disabling speculative loads.
However, we also explicitly set it to zero for BL2 and TSP images when
each image initialises its context. This is done to ensure that the
image environment is initialised in a safe state, regardless of the
reset value of the bit.

Enforce full include path for includes. Deprecate old paths.
The following folders inside include/lib have been left unchanged:
- include/lib/cpus/${ARCH}
- include/lib/el3_runtime/${ARCH}
The reason for this change is that having a global namespace for
includes isn't a good idea. It defeats one of the advantages of having
folders and it introduces problems that are sometimes subtle (because
you may not know the header you are actually including if there are two
of them).
For example, this patch had to be created because two headers were
called the same way: e0ea0928d5b7 ("Fix gpio includes of mt8173 platform
to avoid collision."). More recently, this patch has had similar
problems: 46f9b2c3a282 ("drivers: add tzc380 support").
This problem was introduced in commit 4ecca33988b9 ("Move include and
source files to logical locations"). At that time, there weren't too
many headers so it wasn't a real issue. However, time has shown that
this creates problems.
Platforms that want to preserve the way they include headers may add the
removed paths to PLAT_INCLUDES, but this is discouraged.

All identifiers, regardless of use, that start with two underscores are
reserved. This means they can't be used in header guards.
The style that this project is now to use the full name of the file in
capital letters followed by 'H'. For example, for a file called
"uart_example.h", the header guard is UART_EXAMPLE_H.
The exceptions are files that are imported from other projects:
- CryptoCell driver
- dt-bindings folders
- zlib headers

This patch fixes up the AArch64 assembly code to use
adrp/adr instructions instead of ldr instruction for
reference to symbols. This allows these assembly
sequences to be Position Independant. Note that the
the reference to sizes have been replaced with
calculation of size at runtime. This is because size
is a constant value and does not depend on execution
address and using PC relative instructions for loading
them makes them relative to execution address. Also
we cannot use `ldr` instruction to load size as it
generates a dynamic relocation entry which must *not*
be fixed up and it is difficult for a dynamic loader
to differentiate which entries need to be skipped.

If the system is in near idle conditions, this erratum could cause a
deadlock or data corruption. This patch applies the workaround that
prevents this.
This DSU erratum affects only the DSUs that contain the ACP interface
and it was fixed in r2p0. The workaround is applied only to the DSUs
that are actually affected.

This new macro fills the current exception vector until the next
exception vector. If the size of the current vector is bigger
than 32 instructions then it gives an error.

Clarify comments in xlat tables lib and fixes related to the TLB
|
|
When the MMU is enabled and the translation tables are mapped, data
read/writes to the translation tables are made using the attributes
specified in the translation tables themselves. However, the MMU
performs table walks with the attributes specified in TCR_ELx. They are
completely independent, so special care has to be taken to make sure
that they are the same.
This has to be done manually because it is not practical to have a test
in the code. Such a test would need to know the virtual memory region
that contains the translation tables and check that for all of the
tables the attributes match the ones in TCR_ELx. As the tables may not
even be mapped at all, this isn't a test that can be made generic.
The flags used by enable_mmu_xxx() have been moved to the same header
where the functions are.
Also, some comments in the linker scripts related to the translation
tables have been fixed.

This patch introduces a new BL handover interface. It essentially allows
passing 4 arguments between the different BL stages. Effort has been made
so as to be compatible with the previous handover interface. The previous
blx_early_platform_setup() platform API is now deprecated and the new
blx_early_platform_setup2() variant is introduced. The weak compatiblity
implementation for the new API is done in the `plat_bl_common.c` file.
Some of the new arguments in the new API will be reserved for generic
code use when dynamic configuration support is implemented. Otherwise
the other registers are available for platform use.

This patch adds an argument to bl1_plat_post/pre_image_load() APIs
to make it more future proof. The default implementation of
these are moved to `plat_bl1_common.c` file.
These APIs are now invoked appropriately in the FWU code path prior
to or post image loading by BL1 and are not restricted
to LOAD_IMAGE_V2.
The patch also reorganizes some common platform files. The previous
`plat_bl2_el3_common.c` and `platform_helpers_default.c` files are
merged into a new `plat_bl_common.c` file.
NOTE: The addition of an argument to the above mentioned platform APIs
is not expected to have a great impact because these APIs were only
recently added and are unlikely to be used.

Implement console_flush()
|
|
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 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

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.

This patch adds generic changes in BL2 to support AArch32 state.
New AArch32 specific assembly/C files are introduced and
some files are moved to AArch32/64 specific folders.
BL2 for AArch64 is refactored but functionally identical.
BL2 executes in Secure SVC mode in AArch32 state.
