<id>b0d731d9563cd6fb8bd6c8304065e550d97a22c7</id>
<content type='text'>
Add configuration for ARMv8-M aarch32 core, which are currently
Cortex-M23/M33 cores. These cores are treated similar to ARMv7-M
cores, except the code has to be compiled with matching compiler
-march=armv8-m.main flag . These cores have no MMU, they have MPU,
which is currently not configured.

Unlike ARMv7-M, these cores have 512 interrupt vectors. While the
SYS_ARM_ARCH should be set to 8, it is set to 7 because all of the
initialization code is built from arch/arm/cpu/armv7m and not armv8.
Furthermore, CONFIG_ARM64 must be disabled, although DTs for devices
using these cores do come from arch/arm64/boot/dts.

To avoid excess duplication in Makefiles, introduce one new Kconfig
symbol, CPU_V7M_V8M. The CPU_V7M_V8M cover both ARMv7-M and ARMv8-M
cores.

<id>20861863eb3010581b12e9a77eb7958460edaa82</id>
<content type='text'>
Add support for jumping to Linux kernel through OPTEE-OS on ARMv7a.
This is only supported if U-Boot runs in PL1 secure. This change adds
two components, one is fitImage OPTEE-OS loadable handler, which makes
a note of OPTEE-OS being loaded and stores the load address for later
jump to it. The second part is the actual jump to Linux through OPTEE-OS.
The jump through OPTEE-OS requires set up of multiple CPU registers, r1
and r2 are passed through, r0 and r3 have to be set to 0, lr is set to
Linux kernel entry point. This setup is done by new assembler function
boot_jump_linux_via_optee().

The boot_jump_linux_via_optee() also includes STM32MP13xx late TZC
configuration write, this cannot be moved easily, hence the ifdef.

<title>spl: remove usage of CMD_BOOTx from image parsing</title>

<id>823e453987a6590af67e2226ad3e73fb399c205d</id>
<content type='text'>
Using CMD_* configs from spl doesn't make logical sense. Therefore
this patch replaces the checks for CMD_BOOTx with newly added library
symbols LIB_BOOT[IMZ] and SPL_LIB_BOOT[IMZ] which are enabled by their
respective CMD_* or SPL_* counterparts.

On platforms with non-secure falcon mode, SPL_BOOTZ is enabled by
default for 32-bit ARM systems and SPL_BOOTI is enabled by default for
64-bit ARM and RISCV.

The respective C files (image.c/zimage.c) are compiled based on library
symbols $(PHASE_)LIB_BOOTx instead which are in turn selected by both
CMD_BOOTx and SPL_BOOTx as required.

This series switches to always using $(PHASE_) in Makefiles when
building rather than $(PHASE_) or $(XPL_). It also starts on documenting
this part of the build, but as a follow-up we need to rename
doc/develop/spl.rst and expand on explaining things a bit.

It is confusing to have both "$(PHASE_)" and "$(XPL_)" be used in our
Makefiles as part of the macros to determine when to do something in our
Makefiles based on what phase of the build we are in. For consistency,
bring this down to a single macro and use "$(PHASE_)" only.

These symbols need to survive the IR-level dead function elimination pass,
since nothing at the IR level is referencing them (calls to these are inserted

<content type='text'>
Patrick Rudolph &lt;patrick.rudolph@9elements.com&gt; says:

Based on the existing work done by Simon Glass this series adds
support for booting aarch64 devices using ACPI only.
As first target QEMU SBSA support is added, which relies on ACPI
only to boot an OS. As secondary target the Raspberry Pi4 was used,
which is broadly available and allows easy testing of the proposed
solution.

The series is split into ACPI cleanups and code movements, adding
Arm specific ACPI tables and finally SoC and mainboard related
changes to boot a Linux on the QEMU SBSA and RPi4. Currently only the
mandatory ACPI tables are supported, allowing to boot into Linux
without errors.

The QEMU SBSA support is feature complete and provides the same
functionality as the EDK2 implementation.

The changes were tested on real hardware as well on QEMU v9.0:

qemu-system-aarch64 -machine sbsa-ref -nographic -cpu cortex-a57 \
                    -pflash secure-world.rom \
                    -pflash unsecure-world.rom

qemu-system-aarch64 -machine raspi4b -kernel u-boot.bin -cpu cortex-a72 \
-smp 4 -m 2G -drive file=raspbian.img,format=raw,index=0 \
-dtb bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dtb -nographic

Tested against FWTS V24.03.00.

Known issues:
- The QEMU rpi4 support is currently limited as it doesn't emulate PCI,
  USB or ethernet devices!
- The SMP bringup doesn't work on RPi4, but works in QEMU (Possibly
  cache related).
- PCI on RPI4 isn't working on real hardware since the pcie_brcmstb
  Linux kernel module doesn't support ACPI yet.

Add a generic GICV2 driver that:
- parses the DT and generates the ACPI MADT subtables
- implement of_xlate() and allows irq_get_by_index() to return the
  correct interrupt mappings

Map DT interrupts to ARM GIC interrupts	as follows:

- Interrupt numbers ID32-ID1019 are used for SPIs
- ID0-ID15 are used for SGIs
- ID16-ID31 are used for PPIs

TEST: Booted on QEMU raspb4 using GICV2 driver model generated MADT.
