2016-07-19Introduce PSCI Library InterfaceSoby Mathew
This patch introduces the PSCI Library interface. The major changes introduced are as follows: * Earlier BL31 was responsible for Architectural initialization during cold boot via bl31_arch_setup() whereas PSCI was responsible for the same during warm boot. This functionality is now consolidated by the PSCI library and it does Architectural initialization via psci_arch_setup() during both cold and warm boots. * Earlier the warm boot entry point was always `psci_entrypoint()`. This was not flexible enough as a library interface. Now PSCI expects the runtime firmware to provide the entry point via `psci_setup()`. A new function `bl31_warm_entrypoint` is introduced in BL31 and the previous `psci_entrypoint()` is deprecated. * The `smc_helpers.h` is reorganized to separate the SMC Calling Convention defines from the Trusted Firmware SMC helpers. The former is now in a new header file `smcc.h` and the SMC helpers are moved to Architecture specific header. * The CPU context is used by PSCI for context initialization and restoration after power down (PSCI Context). It is also used by BL31 for SMC handling and context management during Normal-Secure world switch (SMC Context). The `psci_smc_handler()` interface is redefined to not use SMC helper macros thus enabling to decouple the PSCI context from EL3 runtime firmware SMC context. This enables PSCI to be integrated with other runtime firmware using a different SMC context. NOTE: With this patch the architectural setup done in `bl31_arch_setup()` is done as part of `psci_setup()` and hence `bl31_platform_setup()` will be invoked prior to architectural setup. It is highly unlikely that the platform setup will depend on architectural setup and cause any failure. Please be be aware of this change in sequence.

2016-07-18Introduce `el3_runtime` and `PSCI` librariesSoby Mathew
This patch moves the PSCI services and BL31 frameworks like context management and per-cpu data into new library components `PSCI` and `el3_runtime` respectively. This enables PSCI to be built independently from BL31. A new `psci_lib.mk` makefile is introduced which adds the relevant PSCI library sources and gets included by `bl31.mk`. Other changes which are done as part of this patch are: * The runtime services framework is now moved to the `common/` folder to enable reuse. * The `asm_macros.S` and `assert_macros.S` helpers are moved to architecture specific folder. * The `plat_psci_common.c` is moved from the `plat/common/aarch64/` folder to `plat/common` folder. The original file location now has a stub which just includes the file from new location to maintain platform compatibility. Most of the changes wouldn't affect platform builds as they just involve changes to the generic bl1.mk and bl31.mk makefiles. NOTE: THE `plat_psci_common.c` FILE HAS MOVED LOCATION AND THE STUB FILE AT THE ORIGINAL LOCATION IS NOW DEPRECATED. PLATFORMS SHOULD MODIFY THEIR MAKEFILES TO INCLUDE THE FILE FROM THE NEW LOCATION.
