Provide armffa command showcasing the use of the U-Boot FF-A support
armffa is a command showcasing how to invoke FF-A operations.
This provides a guidance to the client developers on how to
call the FF-A bus interfaces. The command also allows to gather secure
partitions information and ping these partitions. The command is also
helpful in testing the communication with secure partitions.
For more details please refer to the command documentation [1].
A Sandbox test is provided for the armffa command.

Emulate Secure World's FF-A ABIs and allow testing U-Boot FF-A support
Features of the sandbox FF-A support:
- Introduce an FF-A emulator
- Introduce an FF-A device driver for FF-A comms with emulated Secure World
- Provides test methods allowing to read the status of the inspected ABIs
The sandbox FF-A emulator supports only 64-bit direct messaging.

Add Arm FF-A support implementing Arm Firmware Framework for Armv8-A v1.0
The Firmware Framework for Arm A-profile processors (FF-A v1.0) [1]
describes interfaces (ABIs) that standardize communication
between the Secure World and Normal World leveraging TrustZone
technology.
This driver uses 64-bit registers as per SMCCCv1.2 spec and comes
on top of the SMCCC layer. The driver provides the FF-A ABIs needed for
querying the FF-A framework from the secure world.
The driver uses SMC32 calling convention which means using the first
32-bit data of the Xn registers.
All supported ABIs come with their 32-bit version except FFA_RXTX_MAP
which has 64-bit version supported.
Both 32-bit and 64-bit direct messaging are supported which allows both
32-bit and 64-bit clients to use the FF-A bus.
FF-A is a discoverable bus and similar to architecture features.
FF-A bus is discovered using ARM_SMCCC_FEATURES mechanism performed
by the PSCI driver.
Clients are able to probe then use the FF-A bus by calling the DM class
searching APIs (e.g: uclass_first_device).
The Secure World is considered as one entity to communicate with
using the FF-A bus. FF-A communication is handled by one device and
one instance (the bus). This FF-A driver takes care of all the
interactions between Normal world and Secure World.
The driver exports its operations to be used by upper layers.
Exported operations:
- ffa_partition_info_get
- ffa_sync_send_receive
- ffa_rxtx_unmap
Generic FF-A methods are implemented in the Uclass (arm-ffa-uclass.c).
Arm specific methods are implemented in the Arm driver (arm-ffa.c).
For more details please refer to the driver documentation [2].
