Added checks to FWU_SMC_IMAGE_COPY to prevent loading data into a
memory region where another image data is already loaded.
Without this check, if two images are configured to be loaded in
overlapping memory regions, one of them can be loaded and
authenticated and the copy function is still able to load data from
the second image on top of the first one. Since the first image is
still in authenticated state, it can be executed, which could lead to
the execution of unauthenticated arbitrary code of the second image.
Firmware update documentation updated.

The behaviour of assert() now depends on the value of the new optional
platform define `PLAT_LOG_LEVEL_ASSERT`. This defaults to `LOG_LEVEL` if
not defined by the platform.
- If `PLAT_LOG_LEVEL_ASSERT` >= `LOG_LEVEL_VERBOSE`, it prints the file
name, line and asserted expression.
- If `PLAT_LOG_LEVEL_ASSERT` >= `LOG_LEVEL_INFO`, it prints the file
name and line.
- If not, it doesn't print anything.
Note the old behaviour was to print the function name whereas now it
prints the file name. This reduces memory usage because the file name is
shared between all assert calls in a given file. Also, the default
behaviour in debug builds is to no longer print the asserted expression,
greatly reducing the string usage.

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.

Added APIs to add and remove regions to the translation tables
dynamically while the MMU is enabled. Only static regions are allowed
to overlap other static ones (for backwards compatibility).
A new private attribute (MT_DYNAMIC / MT_STATIC) has been added to
flag each region as such.
The dynamic mapping functionality can be enabled or disabled when
compiling by setting the build option PLAT_XLAT_TABLES_DYNAMIC to 1
or 0. This can be done per-image.
TLB maintenance code during dynamic table mapping and unmapping has
also been added.

This patch introduces the following three platform interfaces:
* void plat_psci_stat_accounting_start(const psci_power_state_t *state_info)
This is an optional hook that platforms can implement in order
to perform accounting before entering a low power state. This
typically involves capturing a timestamp.
* void plat_psci_stat_accounting_stop(const psci_power_state_t *state_info)
This is an optional hook that platforms can implement in order
to perform accounting after exiting from a low power state. This
typically involves capturing a timestamp.
* u_register_t plat_psci_stat_get_residency(unsigned int lvl,
const psci_power_state_t *state_info,
unsigned int last_cpu_index)
This is an optional hook that platforms can implement in order
to calculate the PSCI stat residency.
If any of these interfaces are overridden by the platform, it is
recommended that all of them are.
By default `ENABLE_PSCI_STAT` is disabled. If `ENABLE_PSCI_STAT`
is set but `ENABLE_PMF` is not set then an alternative PSCI stat
collection backend must be provided. If both are set, then default
weak definitions of these functions are provided, using PMF to
calculate the residency.
NOTE: Previously, platforms did not have to explicitly set
`ENABLE_PMF` since this was automatically done by the top-level
Makefile.

The previous code required that a certificate be signed with the ROT
key before the platform's NV counter could be updated with the value
in the certificate. This implies that the Non-Trusted NV counter was
not being updated for Non-Trusted content certificates, as they cannot
be signed with the ROT key in the TBBR CoT scheme.
The code is reworked to only allow updating the platform's Trusted NV
counter when a certificate protected by the Trusted NV counter is
signed with the ROT key.
Content certificates protected by the Non-Trusted NV counter are
allowed to update the platform's Non-Trusted NV counter, assuming
that the certificate value is higher than the platform's value.
A new optional platform API has been introduced, named
plat_set_nv_ctr2(). Platforms may choose to implement it and perform
additional checks based on the authentication image descriptor before
modifying the NV counters. A default weak implementation is available
that just calls into plat_set_nv_ctr().

This patch adds capability to load BL images based on image
descriptors instead of hard coded way of loading BL images.
This framework is designed such that it can be readily adapted
by any BL stage that needs to load images.
In order to provide the above capability the following new
platform functions are introduced:
bl_load_info_t *plat_get_bl_image_load_info(void);
This function returns pointer to the list of images that the
platform has populated to load.
bl_params_t *plat_get_next_bl_params(void);
This function returns a pointer to the shared memory that the
platform has kept aside to pass trusted firmware related
information that next BL image needs.
void plat_flush_next_bl_params(void);
This function flushes to main memory all the params that
are passed to next image.
int bl2_plat_handle_post_image_load(unsigned int image_id)
This function can be used by the platforms to update/use
image information for given `image_id`.
`desc_image_load.c` contains utility functions which can be used
by the platforms to generate, load and executable, image list
based on the registered image descriptors.
This patch also adds new version of `load_image/load_auth_image`
functions in-order to achieve the above capability.
Following are the changes for the new version as compared to old:
- Refactor the signature and only keep image_id and image_info_t
arguments. Removed image_base argument as it is already passed
through image_info_t. Given that the BL image base addresses and
limit/size are already provided by the platforms, the meminfo_t
and entry_point_info arguments are not needed to provide/reserve
the extent of free memory for the given BL image.
- Added check for the image size against the defined max size.
This is needed because the image size could come from an
unauthenticated source (e.g. the FIP header).
To make this check, new member is added to the image_info_t
struct for identifying the image maximum size.
New flag `LOAD_IMAGE_V2` is added in the Makefile.
Default value is 0.
NOTE: `TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT` is currently not supported when
`LOAD_IMAGE_V2` is enabled.

* Review usage of unsigned long as it can no longer be assumed to be 64 bit.
* Use u_register_t for register values whose width varies depending on
whether AArch64 or AArch32.
* Use generic C types where-ever possible.

This patch adds following optional PSCI STAT functions:
- PSCI_STAT_RESIDENCY: This call returns the amount of time spent
in power_state in microseconds, by the node represented by the
`target_cpu` and the highest level of `power_state`.
- PSCI_STAT_COUNT: This call returns the number of times a
`power_state` has been used by the node represented by the
`target_cpu` and the highest power level of `power_state`.
These APIs provides residency statistics for power states that has
been used by the platform. They are implemented according to v1.0

By default this optional feature is disabled in the PSCI
implementation. To enable it, set the boolean flag
`ENABLE_PSCI_STAT` to 1. This also sets `ENABLE_PMF` to 1.

This patch adds support for non-volatile counter authentication to
the Authentication Module. This method consists of matching the
counter values provided in the certificates with the ones stored
in the platform. If the value from the certificate is lower than
the platform, the boot process is aborted. This mechanism protects
the system against rollback.
The TBBR CoT has been updated to include this method as part of the
authentication process. Two counters are used: one for the trusted
world images and another for the non trusted world images.
** NEW PLATFORM APIs (mandatory when TBB is enabled) **
int plat_get_nv_ctr(void *cookie, unsigned int *nv_ctr);
This API returns the non-volatile counter value stored
in the platform. The cookie in the first argument may be
used to select the counter in case the platform provides
more than one (i.e. TBSA compliant platforms must provide
trusted and non-trusted counters). This cookie is specified
in the CoT.
int plat_set_nv_ctr(void *cookie, unsigned int nv_ctr);
This API sets a new counter value. The cookie may be
used to select the counter to be updated.
An implementation of these new APIs for ARM platforms is also
provided. The values are obtained from the Trusted Non-Volatile
Counters peripheral. The cookie is used to pass the extension OID.
This OID may be interpreted by the platform to know which counter
must return. On Juno, The trusted and non-trusted counter values
have been tied to 31 and 223, respectively, and cannot be modified.

The Firmware Design document is meant to provide a general overview

`PLAT_ARM_BL31_RUN_UART_CLK_IN_HZ` macros which is required
by `arm_bl31_plat_runtime_setup()` to initialize the runtime
console.
The system suspend resume helper `arm_system_pwr_domain_resume()`
is fixed to initialize the runtime console rather than the boot
console on resumption from system suspend.

It is not ideal for BL31 to continue to use boot console at
runtime which could be potentially uninitialized. This patch
introduces a new optional platform porting API
`bl31_plat_runtime_setup()` which allows the platform to perform
any BL31 runtime setup just prior to BL31 exit during cold boot.
The default weak implementation of this function will invoke
`console_uninit()` which will suppress any BL31 runtime logs.
On the ARM Standard platforms, there is an anomaly that
the boot console will be reinitialized on resumption from
system suspend in `arm_system_pwr_domain_resume()`. This
will be resolved in the following patch.
NOTE: The default weak definition of `bl31_plat_runtime_setup()`
disables the BL31 console. To print the BL31 runtime
messages, platforms must override this API and initialize a
runtime console.

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.

Normally, in the FVP port, secondary CPUs are immediately powered
down if they are powered on at reset. However, when booting an EL3
payload, we need to keep them powered on as the requirement is for
all CPUs to enter the EL3 payload image. This patch puts them in a
holding pen instead of powering them off.
