plat/arm: Introduce and use libc_asm.mk makefile Trace analysis of FVP_Base_AEMv8A 0.0/6063 model running in Aarch32 mode with the build options listed below: TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT=1 GENERATE_COT=1 ARM_ROTPK_LOCATION=devel_ecdsa KEY_ALG=ecdsa ROT_KEY=plat/arm/board/common/rotpk/arm_rotprivk_ecdsa.pem shows that when auth_signature() gets called 71.99% of CPU execution time is spent in memset() function written in C using single byte write operations, see lib\libc\memset.c. This patch introduces new libc_asm.mk makefile which replaces C memset() implementation with assembler version giving the following results: - for Aarch32 in auth_signature() call memset() CPU time reduced to 20.56%. The number of CPU instructions (Inst) executed during TF-A boot stage before start of BL33 in RELEASE builds for different versions is presented in the tables below, where: - C TF-A: existing TF-A C code; - C musl: "lightweight code" C "implementation of the standard library for Linux-based systems" https://git.musl-libc.org/cgit/musl/tree/src/string/memset.c - Asm Opt: assemler version from "Arm Optimized Routines" project https://github.com/ARM-software/optimized-routines/blob/ master/string/arm/memset.S - Asm Linux: assembler version from Linux kernel https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/arch/arm/lib/memset.S - Asm TF-A: assembler version from this patch Aarch32: +-----------+------+------+--------------+----------+ | Variant | Set | Size | Inst | Ratio | +-----------+------+------+--------------+----------+ | C TF-A | T32 | 16 | 2122110003 | 1.000000 | | C musl | T32 | 156 | 1643917668 | 0.774662 | | Asm Opt | T32 | 84 | 1604810003 | 0.756233 | | Asm Linux | A32 | 168 | 1566255018 | 0.738065 | | Asm TF-A | A32 | 160 | 1525865101 | 0.719032 | +-----------+------+------+--------------+----------+ AArch64: +-----------+------+------------+----------+ | Variant | Size | Inst | Ratio | +-----------+------+------------+----------+ | C TF-A | 28 | 2732497518 | 1.000000 | | C musl | 212 | 1802999999 | 0.659836 | | Asm TF-A | 140 | 1680260003 | 0.614917 | +-----------+------+------------+----------+ This patch modifies 'plat\arm\common\arm_common.mk' by overriding libc.mk makefile with libc_asm.mk and does not effect other platforms.
