obtained by ARM Ltd. This will be useful for non-ARM vendors that
do not need their own extension fields in their certificate files.
The OIDs of ARM Ltd. have been moved to include/tools_share/tbbr_oid.h
Platforms can include <tbbr_oid.h> instead of <platform_oid.h> by
defining USE_TBBR_DEFS as 1. USE_TBBR_DEFS is 0 by default to keep the

This reverts commit b621fb503c.
Because of the Trusted Firmware design, timing-safe functions are not
needed. Using them may be misleading as it could be interpreted as being
a protection against private data leakage, which isn't the case here.
For each image, the SHA-256 hash is calculated. Some padding is appended
and the result is encrypted with a private key using RSA-2048. This is
the signature of the image. The public key is stored along with BL1 in
read-only memory and the encrypted hash is stored in the FIP.
When authenticating an image, the TF decrypts the hash stored in the FIP
and recalculates the hash of the image. If they don't match, the boot
sequence won't continue.
A constant-time comparison does not provide additional security as all
the data involved in this process is already known to any attacker.
There is no private data that can leaked through a timing attack when
authenticating an image.
`timingsafe_bcmp()` is kept in the codebase because it could be useful
in the future.

Replace all use of memset by zeromem when zeroing moderately-sized
structure by applying the following transformation:
memset(x, 0, sizeof(x)) => zeromem(x, sizeof(x))
As the Trusted Firmware is compiled with -ffreestanding, it forbids the
compiler from using __builtin_memset and forces it to generate calls to
the slow memset implementation. Zeromem is a near drop in replacement
for this use case, with a more efficient implementation on both AArch32
and AArch64.

To avoid timing side-channel attacks, it is needed to use a constant
time memory comparison function when comparing hashes. The affected
code only cheks for equality so it isn't needed to use any variant of
memcmp(), bcmp() is enough.
Also, timingsafe_bcmp() is as fast as memcmp() when the two compared
regions are equal, so this change incurrs no performance hit in said
case. In case they are unequal, the boot sequence wouldn't continue as
normal, so performance is not an issue.

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 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.

By default ARM TF is built with the '-pedantic' compiler flag, which
helps detecting violations of the C standard. However, the mbed TLS
library and its associated authentication module in TF used to fail
building with this compiler flag. As a workaround, the mbed TLS
authentication module makefile used to set the 'DISABLE_PEDANTIC'
TF build flag.
The compiler errors flagged by '-pedantic' in the mbed TLS library
have been fixed between versions 1.3.9 and 2.2.0 and the library now
properly builds with this compiler flag.
This patch fixes the remaining compiler errors in the mbed TLS
authentication module in TF and unsets the 'DISABLE_PEDANTIC' TF
build flag. This means that TF is now always built with '-pedantic'.
In particular, this patch:
* Removes the final semi-colon in REGISTER_COT() macro.
This semi-colon was causing the following error message:
drivers/auth/tbbr/tbbr_cot.c:544:23: error: ISO C does not allow
extra ';' outside of a function [-Werror=pedantic]
This has been fixed both in the mbed TLS authentication module
as well as in the certificate generation tool. Note that the latter
code didn't need fixing since it is not built with '-pedantic' but
the change has been propagated for consistency.
Also fixed the REGISTER_KEYS() and REGISTER_EXTENSIONS() macros,
which were suffering from the same issue.
* Fixes a pointer type.
It was causing the following error message:

specific code detects that it is needed.
This patch adds support for FWU feature support in BL1 which is

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

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.
