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
compilers' optimizations in some cases or misbehaving versions of GCC.

The errata reporting policy is as follows:
- If an errata workaround is enabled:
- If it applies (i.e. the CPU is affected by the errata), an INFO
message is printed, confirming that the errata workaround has been
applied.
- If it does not apply, a VERBOSE message is printed, confirming
that the errata workaround has been skipped.
- If an errata workaround is not enabled, but would have applied had
it been, a WARN message is printed, alerting that errata workaround
is missing.
The CPU errata messages are printed by both BL1 (primary CPU only) and

Before adding a base address and a size to compute the end
address of an image to copy or authenticate, check this
won't result in an integer overflow. If it does then consider
the input arguments are invalid.
As a result, bl1_plat_mem_check() can now safely assume the
end address (computed as the sum of the base address and size
of the memory region) doesn't overflow, as the validation is
done upfront in bl1_fwu_image_copy/auth(). A debug assertion
has been added nonetheless in the ARM implementation in order
to help catching such problems, should bl1_plat_mem_check()
be called in a different context in the future.

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 changes in BL1 & BL2 to use new version
of image loading to load the BL images.
Following are the changes in BL1:
-Use new version of load_auth_image() to load BL2
-Modified `bl1_init_bl2_mem_layout()` to remove using
`reserve_mem()` and to calculate `bl2_mem_layout`.
`bl2_mem_layout` calculation now assumes that BL1 RW
data is at the top of the bl1_mem_layout, which is more
restrictive than the previous BL1 behaviour.
Following are the changes in BL2:
-The `bl2_main.c` is refactored and all the functions
for loading BLxx images are now moved to `bl2_image_load.c`
`bl2_main.c` now calls a top level `bl2_load_images()` to
load all the images that are applicable in BL2.
-Added new file `bl2_image_load_v2.c` that uses new version
of image loading to load the BL images in BL2.
All the above changes are conditionally compiled using the

This patch removes the tight loop that calls `plat_report_exception`

The new behaviour is to call the `plat_report_exception` only

This allows platforms to take platform-specific action when
there is an unhandled exception, instead of always spinning
in a tight loop.
Note: This is a subtle break in behaviour for platforms that
expect `plat_report_exception` to be continuously executed
when there is an unhandled exception.

`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.

At the moment, all BL images share a similar memory layout: they start
with their code section, followed by their read-only data section.
The two sections are contiguous in memory. Therefore, the end of the
code section and the beginning of the read-only data one might share
a memory page. This forces both to be mapped with the same memory
attributes. As the code needs to be executable, this means that the
read-only data stored on the same memory page as the code are
executable as well. This could potentially be exploited as part of
a security attack.
This patch introduces a new build flag called
SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA, which isolates the code and read-only data
on separate memory pages. This in turn allows independent control of
the access permissions for the code and read-only data.
This has an impact on memory footprint, as padding bytes need to be
introduced between the code and read-only data to ensure the
segragation of the two. To limit the memory cost, the memory layout
of the read-only section has been changed in this case.
- When SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA=0, the layout is unchanged, i.e.
the read-only section still looks like this (padding omitted):
| ... |
+-------------------+
| Exception vectors |
+-------------------+
| Read-only data |
+-------------------+
| Code |
+-------------------+ BLx_BASE
In this case, the linker script provides the limits of the whole
read-only section.
- When SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA=1, the exception vectors and
read-only data are swapped, such that the code and exception
vectors are contiguous, followed by the read-only data. This
gives the following new layout (padding omitted):
| ... |
+-------------------+
| Read-only data |
+-------------------+
| Exception vectors |
+-------------------+
| Code |
+-------------------+ BLx_BASE
In this case, the linker script now exports 2 sets of addresses
instead: the limits of the code and the limits of the read-only
data. Refer to the Firmware Design guide for more details. This
provides platform code with a finer-grained view of the image
layout and allows it to map these 2 regions with the appropriate
access permissions.
Note that SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA applies to all BL images.

The system registers that are saved and restored in CPU context include
AArch32 systems registers like SPSR_ABT, SPSR_UND, SPSR_IRQ, SPSR_FIQ,
DACR32_EL2, IFSR32_EL2 and FPEXC32_EL2. Accessing these registers on an
AArch64-only (i.e. on hardware that does not implement AArch32, or at
least not at EL1 and higher ELs) platform leads to an exception. This patch
introduces the build option `CTX_INCLUDE_AARCH32_REGS` to specify whether to
include these AArch32 systems registers in the cpu context or not. By default
this build option is set to 1 to ensure compatibility. AArch64-only platforms
must set it to 0. A runtime check is added in BL1 and BL31 cold boot path to

Asynchronous abort exceptions generated by the platform during cold boot are
not taken in EL3 unless SCR_EL3.EA is set.
Therefore EA bit is set along with RES1 bits in early BL1 and BL31 architecture
initialisation. Further write accesses to SCR_EL3 preserve these bits during
cold boot.
A build flag controls SCR_EL3.EA value to keep asynchronous abort exceptions
being trapped by EL3 after cold boot or not.
For further reference SError Interrupts are also known as asynchronous external
aborts.
On Cortex-A53 revisions below r0p2, asynchronous abort exceptions are taken in
EL3 whatever the SCR_EL3.EA value is.

This patch fixes inconsistencies in bl1_tbbr_image_descs[]
and miscellaneous fixes in Firmware Update code.
Following are the changes:
* As part of the original FWU changes, a `copied_size`
field was added to `image_info_t`. This was a subtle binary
compatibility break because it changed the size of the
`bl31_params_t` struct, which could cause problems if
somebody used different versions of BL2 or BL31, one with
the old `image_info_t` and one with the new version.
This patch put the `copied_size` within the `image_desc_t`.
* EXECUTABLE flag is now stored in `ep_info.h.attr` in place
of `image_info.h.attr`, associating it to an entrypoint.
* The `image_info.image_base` is only relevant for secure
images that are copied from non-secure memory into secure
memory. This patch removes initializing `image_base` for
non secure images in the bl1_tbbr_image_descs[].
* A new macro `SET_STATIC_PARAM_HEAD` is added for populating
bl1_tbbr_image_descs[].ep_info/image_info.h members statically.
The version, image_type and image attributes are now
populated using this new macro.
* Added PLAT_ARM_NVM_BASE and PLAT_ARM_NVM_SIZE to avoid direct
usage of V2M_FLASH0_XXX in plat/arm/common/arm_bl1_fwu.c.
* Refactoring of code/macros related to SECURE and EXECUTABLE flags.
NOTE: PLATFORM PORTS THAT RELY ON THE SIZE OF `image_info_t`
OR USE the "EXECUTABLE" BIT WITHIN `image_info_t.h.attr`
OR USE THEIR OWN `image_desc_t` ARRAY IN BL1, MAY BE
BROKEN BY THIS CHANGE. THIS IS CONSIDERED UNLIKELY.

non-secure images in place, which is not done by current

Firmware update(a.k.a FWU) feature is part of the TBB architecture.
BL1 is responsible for carrying out the FWU process if platform
specific code detects that it is needed.
This patch adds support for FWU feature support in BL1 which is
included by enabling `TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT` compile time flag.
This patch adds bl1_fwu.c which contains all the core operations
of FWU, which are; SMC handler, image copy, authentication, execution
and resumption. It also adds bl1.h introducing #defines for all
BL1 SMCs.
Following platform porting functions are introduced:
int bl1_plat_mem_check(uintptr_t mem_base, unsigned int mem_size,
unsigned int flags);
This function can be used to add platform specific memory checks
for the provided base/size for the given security state.
The weak definition will invoke `assert()` and return -ENOMEM.
__dead2 void bl1_plat_fwu_done(void *cookie, void *reserved);
This function can be used to initiate platform specific procedure
to mark completion of the FWU process.
The weak definition waits forever calling `wfi()`.
plat_bl1_common.c contains weak definitions for above functions.
FWU process starts when platform detects it and return the image_id
other than BL2_IMAGE_ID by using `bl1_plat_get_next_image_id()` in
`bl1_main()`.
NOTE: User MUST provide platform specific real definition for
bl1_plat_mem_check() in order to use it for Firmware update.

As of now BL1 loads and execute BL2 based on hard coded information
provided in BL1. But due to addition of support for upcoming Firmware
Update feature, BL1 now require more flexible approach to load and
run different images using information provided by the platform.
This patch adds new mechanism to load and execute images based on
platform provided image id's. BL1 now queries the platform to fetch
the image id of the next image to be loaded and executed. In order
to achieve this, a new struct image_desc_t was added which holds the
information about images, such as: ep_info and image_info.
This patch introduces following platform porting functions:
unsigned int bl1_plat_get_next_image_id(void);
This is used to identify the next image to be loaded
and executed by BL1.
struct image_desc *bl1_plat_get_image_desc(unsigned int image_id);
This is used to retrieve the image_desc for given image_id.
void bl1_plat_set_ep_info(unsigned int image_id,
struct entry_point_info *ep_info);
This function allows platforms to update ep_info for given
image_id.
The plat_bl1_common.c file provides default weak implementations of
all above functions, the `bl1_plat_get_image_desc()` always return
BL2 image descriptor, the `bl1_plat_get_next_image_id()` always return
BL2 image ID and `bl1_plat_set_ep_info()` is empty and just returns.
These functions gets compiled into all BL1 platforms by default.
Platform setup in BL1, using `bl1_platform_setup()`, is now done
_after_ the initialization of authentication module. This change
provides the opportunity to use authentication while doing the
platform setup in BL1.
In order to store secure/non-secure context, BL31 uses percpu_data[]
to store context pointer for each core. In case of BL1 only the
primary CPU will be active hence percpu_data[] is not required to
store the context pointer.
This patch introduce bl1_cpu_context[] and bl1_cpu_context_ptr[] to
store the context and context pointers respectively. It also also
re-defines cm_get_context() and cm_set_context() for BL1 in
bl1/bl1_context_mgmt.c.
BL1 now follows the BL31 pattern of using SP_EL0 for the C runtime
environment, to support resuming execution from a previously saved
context.
NOTE: THE `bl1_plat_set_bl2_ep_info()` PLATFORM PORTING FUNCTION IS
NO LONGER CALLED BY BL1 COMMON CODE. PLATFORMS THAT OVERRIDE
THIS FUNCTION MAY NEED TO IMPLEMENT `bl1_plat_set_ep_info()`

This patch introduces a new build option named COLD_BOOT_SINGLE_CPU,
which allows platforms that only release a single CPU out of reset to
slightly optimise their cold boot code, both in terms of code size
and performance.
COLD_BOOT_SINGLE_CPU defaults to 0, which assumes that the platform
may release several CPUs out of reset. In this case, the cold reset
code needs to coordinate all CPUs via the usual primary/secondary
CPU distinction.
If a platform guarantees that only a single CPU will ever be released
out of reset, there is no need to arbitrate execution ; the notion of
primary and secondary CPUs itself no longer exists. Such platforms
may set COLD_BOOT_SINGLE_CPU to 1 in order to compile out the
primary/secondary CPU identification in the cold reset code.
All ARM standard platforms can release several CPUs out of reset
so they use COLD_BOOT_SINGLE_CPU=0. However, on CSS platforms like
Juno, bringing up more than one CPU at reset should only be attempted
when booting an EL3 payload, as it is not fully supported in the
normal boot flow.
For platforms using COLD_BOOT_SINGLE_CPU=1, the following 2 platform
APIs become optional:
- plat_secondary_cold_boot_setup();
- plat_is_my_cpu_primary().
The Porting Guide has been updated to reflect that.
User Guide updated as well.

This patch modifies the prototype of the bl1_plat_prepare_exit()
platform API to pass the address of the entry point info structure
received from BL2. The structure contains information that can be
useful, depending on the kind of clean up or bookkeeping operations
to perform.
The weak implementation of this function ignores this argument to
preserve platform backwards compatibility.
NOTE: THIS PATCH MAY BREAK PLATFORM PORTS THAT ARE RELYING ON THE
FORMER PROTOTYPE OF THE BL1_PLAT_PREPARE_EXIT() API.

This patch introduces a new build flag, SPIN_ON_BL1_EXIT, which
puts an infinite loop in BL1. It is intended to help debugging
the post-BL2 phase of the Trusted Firmware by stopping execution
in BL1 just before handing over to BL31. At this point, the
developer may take control of the target using a debugger.
This feature is disabled by default and can be enabled by
rebuilding BL1 with SPIN_ON_BL1_EXIT=1.
User Guide updated accordingly.

- Remove out-dated information about the use of printf() in the
function comment.
- Make the argument const, as the function doesn't need to modify it.
- Rename the function into bl1_print_bl31_ep_info() to make its
purpose clearer.

This patch introduces a new function called 'print_entry_point_info'
that prints an entry_point_t structure for debugging purposes.
As such, it can be used to display the entry point address, SPSR and
arguments passed from a firmware image to the next one.
This function is now called in the following images transitions:
- BL1 to BL2
- BL1 to BL31
- BL31 to the next image (typically BL32 or BL33)
The following changes have been introduced:
- Fix the output format of the SPSR value : SPSR is a 32-bit value,
not a 64-bit one.
- Print all arguments values.
The entry_point_info_t structure allows to pass up to 8 arguments.
In most cases, only the first 2 arguments were printed.
print_entry_point_info() now prints all of them as 'VERBOSE'
traces.

This patch adds an optional API to the platform port:
void plat_error_handler(int err) __dead2;
The platform error handler is called when there is a specific error
condition after which Trusted Firmware cannot continue. While panic()
simply prints the crash report (if enabled) and spins, the platform
error handler can be used to hand control over to the platform port
so it can perform specific bookeeping or post-error actions (for
example, reset the system). This function must not return.
The parameter indicates the type of error using standard codes from
errno.h. Possible errors reported by the generic code are:
-EAUTH : a certificate or image could not be authenticated
(when Trusted Board Boot is enabled)
-ENOENT : the requested image or certificate could not be found
or an IO error was detected
-ENOMEM : resources exhausted. Trusted Firmware does not use
dynamic memory, so this error is usually an indication
of an incorrect array size
A default weak implementation of this function has been provided.
It simply implements an infinite loop.

This patch adds an optional API to the platform port:
void bl1_plat_prepare_exit(void);
This function is called prior to exiting BL1 in response to the
RUN_IMAGE_SMC request raised by BL2. It should be used to perform

transferring control to the next image.
A weak empty definition of this function has been provided to
preserve platform backwards compatibility.

The AArch64 synchronous exception vector code in BL1 is almost
reaching its architectural limit of 32 instructions. This means
there is very little space for this code to grow.
This patch reduces the size of the exception vector code by

SynchronousExceptionA64.

BL2 loads secure runtime code(BL3-1, BL3-2) and hence it has to
run in secure world otherwise BL3-1/BL3-2 have to execute from

This patch modifies the Trusted Board Boot implementation to use
the new authentication framework, making use of the authentication
module, the cryto module and the image parser module to
authenticate the images in the Chain of Trust.
A new function 'load_auth_image()' has been implemented. When TBB
is enabled, this function will call the authentication module to
authenticate parent images following the CoT up to the root of
trust to finally load and authenticate the requested image.
The platform is responsible for picking up the right makefiles to
build the corresponding cryptographic and image parser libraries.
ARM platforms use the mbedTLS based libraries.
The platform may also specify what key algorithm should be used
to sign the certificates. This is done by declaring the 'KEY_ALG'
variable in the platform makefile. FVP and Juno use ECDSA keys.
On ARM platforms, BL2 and BL1-RW regions have been increased 4KB
each to accommodate the ECDSA code.
REMOVED BUILD OPTIONS:
* 'AUTH_MOD'
Change-Id: I47d436589fc213a39edf5f5297bbd955f15ae867
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.
Change-Id: Ied11bd5cd410e1df8767a1df23bb720ce7e58178
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.

This patch introduces a new platform build option, called
PROGRAMMABLE_RESET_ADDRESS, which tells whether the platform has
a programmable or fixed reset vector address.
If the reset vector address is fixed then the code relies on the
platform_get_entrypoint() mailbox mechanism to figure out where
it is supposed to jump. On the other hand, if it is programmable
then it is assumed that the platform code will program directly
the right address into the RVBAR register (instead of using the
mailbox redirection) so the mailbox is ignored in this case.

The attempt to run the CPU reset code as soon as possible after reset
results in highly complex conditional code relating to the
RESET_TO_BL31 option.
This patch relaxes this requirement a little. In the BL1, BL3-1 and
PSCI entrypoints code, the sequence of operations is now as follows:
1) Detect whether it is a cold or warm boot;
2) For cold boot, detect whether it is the primary or a secondary
CPU. This is needed to handle multiple CPUs entering cold reset
simultaneously;
3) Run the CPU init code.
This patch also abstracts the EL3 registers initialisation done by
the BL1, BL3-1 and PSCI entrypoints into common code.
This improves code re-use and consolidates the code flows for
different types of systems.
NOTE: THE FUNCTION plat_secondary_cold_boot() IS NOW EXPECTED TO
NEVER RETURN. THIS PATCH FORCES PLATFORM PORTS THAT RELIED ON THE
FORMER RETRY LOOP AT THE CALL SITE TO MODIFY THEIR IMPLEMENTATION.
OTHERWISE, SECONDARY CPUS WILL PANIC.

The required platform constant PLATFORM_CACHE_LINE_SIZE is
unnecessary since CACHE_WRITEBACK_GRANULE effectively provides the
same information. CACHE_WRITEBACK_GRANULE is preferred since this
is an architecturally defined term and allows comparison with the
corresponding hardware register value.
Replace all usage of PLATFORM_CACHE_LINE_SIZE with
CACHE_WRITEBACK_GRANULE.
Also, add a runtime assert in BL1 to check that the provided
CACHE_WRITEBACK_GRANULE matches the value provided in CTR_EL0.

In order for the symbol table in the ELF file to contain the size of
functions written in assembly, it is necessary to report it to the
assembler using the .size directive.
To fulfil the above requirements, this patch introduces an 'endfunc'
macro which contains the .endfunc and .size directives. It also adds
a .func directive to the 'func' assembler macro.
The .func/.endfunc have been used so the assembler can fail if
endfunc is omitted.
