7e21fbca26 efi_loader: Rename sections to allow for implicit data
Some times gcc may generate data that is then used within code that may
be part of an efi runtime section. That data could be jump tables,
constants or strings.

In order to make sure we catch these, we need to ensure that gcc emits
them into a section that we can relocate together with all the other
efi runtime bits. This only works if the -ffunction-sections and
-fdata-sections flags are passed and the efi runtime functions are
in a section that starts with ".text".

Up to now we had all efi runtime bits in sections that did not
interfere with the normal section naming scheme, but this forces
us to do so. Hence we need to move the efi_loader text/data/rodata
sections before the global *(.text*) catch-all section.

With this patch in place, we should hopefully have an easier time
to extend the efi runtime functionality in the future.

83d290c56f SPDX: Convert all of our single license tags to Linux Kernel style
When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from.  So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry.  Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.

In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.

This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents.  There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

cdde7de036 ARM: fixed relocation using proper alignment
Using u-boot-2017.05 on i.MX6UL we ran into following problem:
Initially U-Boot could be started normally.
If we added one random command in configuration, the newly generated
image hung at startup (last output was DRAM:  256 MiB).

We tracked this down to a data abort within relocation (relocated_code).

relocated_code in arch/arm/lib/relocate.S copies 8 bytes per loop
iteration until the source pointer is equal to __image_copy_end.
In a good case __image_copy_end was aligned to 8 bytes, so the loop
stopped as suggested, but in an errornous case __image_copy_end was
not aligned to 8 bytes, so the loop ran out of bounds and caused a
data abort exception.

This patches solves the issue by aligning __image_copy_end to 8 byte
using the linker script related to arm.

I don't know if it's the correct way to solve this, so some review would
be very appreciated.

2fe1281c79 ARM: create .secure_stack section only for PSCI
Jon Master reports that QEMU refuses to load a U-Boot image built
with CONFIG_ARMV7_NONSEC, but without CONFIG_ARMV7_PSCI since
commit 5a3aae68c7 ("ARM: armv7: guard memory reserve for PSCI
with #ifdef CONFIG_ARMV7_PSCI").

It looks like only PSCI that needs the Secure stack, so move
the #ifdef to guard the whole of .secure_stack allocation in order
not to create the empty section.

As the PSCI implementation grows, we might exceed the size of the secure

980d6a5511 ARM: Add an empty secure stack section
Until now we've been using memory beyond psci_text_end as stack space
for the secure monitor or PSCI implementation, even if space was not
allocated for it.

This was partially fixed in ("ARM: allocate extra space for PSCI stack
in secure section during link phase"). However, calculating stack space
from psci_text_end in one place, while allocating the space in another
is error prone.

This patch adds a separate empty secure stack section, with space for
CONFIG_ARMV7_PSCI_NR_CPUS stacks, each 1 KB. There's also
__secure_stack_start and __secure_stack_end symbols. The linker script
handles calculating the correct VMAs for the stack section. For
platforms that relocate/copy the secure monitor before using it, the
space is not allocated in the executable, saving space.

For platforms that do not define CONFIG_ARMV7_PSCI_NR_CPUS, a whole page
of stack space for 4 CPUs is allocated, matching the previous behavior.

a1274cc94a ARM: Page align secure section only when it is executed in situ
Targets that define CONFIG_ARMV7_SECURE_BASE will copy the secure section
to another address before execution.

Since the secure section in the u-boot image is only storage, there's
no reason to page align it and increase the binary image size.

Page align the secure section only when CONFIG_ARMV7_SECURE_BASE is not
defined. And instead of just aligning the __secure_start symbol, align
the whole .__secure_start section. This also makes the section empty,
so we need to add KEEP() to the input entry to prevent the section from
being garbage collected.

Also use ld constant "COMMONPAGESIZE" instead of hardcoded page size.

b56e06d343 ARM: allocate extra space for PSCI stack in secure section during link phase
The PSCI implementation expects at most 2 pages worth of space reserved
at the end of the secure section for its stacks. If PSCI is relocated to
secure SRAM, then everything is fine. If no secure SRAM is available,
and PSCI remains in main memory, the reserved memory space doesn't cover
the space used by the stack.

If one accesses PSCI after Linux has fully booted, the memory that should
have been reserved for the PSCI stacks may have been used by the kernel
or userspace, and would be corrupted. Observed after effects include the
system hanging or telinit core dumping when trying to reboot. It seems
the init process gets hit the most on my test bed.

This fix allocates the space used by the PSCI stacks in the secure
section by skipping pages in the linker script, but only when there is
no secure SRAM, to avoid bloating the binary.

This fix is only a stop gap. It would be better to rework the stack
allocation mechanism, maybe with proper usage of CONFIG_ macros and an
explicit symbol.

50149ea37a efi_loader: Add runtime services
After booting has finished, EFI allows firmware to still interact with the OS
using the "runtime services". These callbacks live in a separate address space,
since they are available long after U-Boot has been overwritten by the OS.

This patch adds enough framework for arbitrary code inside of U-Boot to become
a runtime service with the right section attributes set. For now, we don't make
use of it yet though.

We could maybe in the future map U-boot environment variables to EFI variables
here.

c5e954eccd ARM: Disable "DISCARD" for secure section if CONFIG_ARMV7_SECURE_BASE isn't defined
"DISCARD" will remove ._secure.text relocate, but PSCI framework
has already used some absolute address those need to relocate.

Use readelf -t -r u-boot show us:
.__secure_start		addr: 601408e4
.__secure_end		addr: 60141460

60141140  00000017 R_ARM_RELATIVE

6014145c  00000017 R_ARM_RELATIVE
202	ldr     r5, =psci_text_end

Solutions:
1. Change absolute address to RelAdr.
   Based on LDR (immediate, ARM), we only have 4K offset to jump.
Now PSCI code size is close to 4K size that is LDR limit jump size,
so even if the LDR is based on the current instruction address,
there is also have a risk for RelAdr. If we use two jump steps I
think we can fix this issue, but looks too hack, so give up this way.

2. Enable "DISCARD" only for CONFIG_ARMV7_SECURE_BASE has defined.
   If CONFIG_ARMV7_SECURE_BASE is defined in platform, all of secure
will in the BASE address that is absolute.

d47cb0b61a arm: discard relocation entries for secure text
The code such as PSCI in section named secure is bundled with
u-boot image, and when bootm, the code will be copied to their
runtime address same to compliation/linking address -
CONFIG_ARMV7_SECURE_BASE.

When compile the PSCI code and link it into the u-boot image,
there will be relocation entries in .rel.dyn section for PSCI.
Actually, we do not needs these relocation entries.

If still keep the relocation entries in .rel.dyn section,
r0 at line 103 and 106 in arch/arm/lib/relocate.S may be an invalid
address which may not support read/write for one SoC.
102         /* relative fix: increase location by offset */
103         add     r0, r0, r4
104         ldr     r1, [r0]
105         add     r1, r1, r4
106         str     r1, [r0]

So discard them to avoid touching the relocation entry in
arch/arm/lib/relocate.S.

2b7818d49f ARM: enhance u-boot.lds to detect over-sized SPL
Add an ASSERT() to u-boot.lds to detect an SPL that doesn't fit within
SPL_TEXT_BASE..SPL_MAX_SIZE.

Different .lds files implement this check in two possible ways:
1) An ASSERT() like this
2) Defining a MEMORY region of size SPL_MAX_SIZE, and re-directing all
   linker output into that region. Since u-boot.lds is used for both
   SPL and main U-Boot, this would entail only sometimes defining a
   MEMORY region, and only sometimes performing that redirection, and
   hence option (1) was deemed much simpler, and hence implemented.

Note that this causes build failures at least for NVIDIA Tegra Seaboard
and Ventana. However, these are legitimate; the SPL doesn't fit within
the required space, and this does cause runtime issues.

b68d6712c3 ARM: fix u-boot.lds for -ffunction-sections/-fdata-sections
When -ffunction-sections or -fdata-section are used, symbols are placed
into sections such as .data.eserial1_device and .bss.serial_current.
Update the linker script to explicitly include these. Without this
change (at least with my gcc-4.5.3 built using crosstool-ng), I see that
the sections do end up being included, but __bss_end__ gets set to the
same value as __bss_start.

8b493a5236 common: Discard the __u_boot_cmd section
The command declaration now uses the new LG-array method to generate
list of commands. Thus the __u_boot_cmd section is now superseded and
redundant and therefore can be removed. Also, remove externed symbols
associated with this section from include/command.h .

556751427b common: Add .u_boot_list into all linker files
Add section for the linker-generated lists into all possible linker
files, so that everyone can easily use these lists. This is mostly
a mechanical adjustment.

dde3b70dcf arm: add a common .lds link script
Most ARM CPUs use a very similar link script. This adds a basic
script that can be used by most CPUs.

Two new symbols are introduced which are intended to eventually be
defined on all architectures to make things easier for generic relocation
and reduce special-case code for each architecture:

__image_copy_start is the start of the text area (equivalent to the
existing _start on ARM). It marks the start of the region which must be
copied to a new location during relocation. This symbol is called
__text_start on x86 and microblaze.

__image_copy_end is the end of the region which must be copied to a new
location during relocation. It is normally equal to the start of the BSS
region, but this can vary in some cases (SPL?). Making this an explicit
symbol on its own removes any ambiguity and permits common code to always
do the right thing.

This new script makes use of CPUDIR, now defined by both Makefile and
spl/Makefile, to find the directory containing the start.o object file,
which is always placed first in the image.

To permit MMU setup prior to relocation (as used by pxa) we add an area
to the link script which contains space for this. This is taken
from commit 7f4cfcf. CPUs can put the contents in there using their
start.S file. BTW, shouldn't that area be 16KB-aligned?
