1Arm CPU Specific Build Macros 2============================= 3 4This document describes the various build options present in the CPU specific 5operations framework to enable errata workarounds and to enable optimizations 6for a specific CPU on a platform. 7 8Security Vulnerability Workarounds 9---------------------------------- 10 11TF-A exports a series of build flags which control which security 12vulnerability workarounds should be applied at runtime. 13 14- ``WORKAROUND_CVE_2017_5715``: Enables the security workaround for 15 `CVE-2017-5715`_. This flag can be set to 0 by the platform if none 16 of the PEs in the system need the workaround. Setting this flag to 0 provides 17 no performance benefit for non-affected platforms, it just helps to comply 18 with the recommendation in the spec regarding workaround discovery. 19 Defaults to 1. 20 21- ``WORKAROUND_CVE_2018_3639``: Enables the security workaround for 22 `CVE-2018-3639`_. Defaults to 1. The TF-A project recommends to keep 23 the default value of 1 even on platforms that are unaffected by 24 CVE-2018-3639, in order to comply with the recommendation in the spec 25 regarding workaround discovery. 26 27- ``DYNAMIC_WORKAROUND_CVE_2018_3639``: Enables dynamic mitigation for 28 `CVE-2018-3639`_. This build option should be set to 1 if the target 29 platform contains at least 1 CPU that requires dynamic mitigation. 30 Defaults to 0. 31 32- ``WORKAROUND_CVE_2022_23960``: Enables mitigation for `CVE-2022-23960`_. 33 This build option should be set to 1 if the target platform contains at 34 least 1 CPU that requires this mitigation. Defaults to 1. 35 36.. _arm_cpu_macros_errata_workarounds: 37 38CPU Errata Workarounds 39---------------------- 40 41TF-A exports a series of build flags which control the errata workarounds that 42are applied to each CPU by the reset handler. The errata details can be found 43in the CPU specific errata documents published by Arm: 44 45- `Cortex-A53 MPCore Software Developers Errata Notice`_ 46- `Cortex-A57 MPCore Software Developers Errata Notice`_ 47- `Cortex-A72 MPCore Software Developers Errata Notice`_ 48 49The errata workarounds are implemented for a particular revision or a set of 50processor revisions. This is checked by the reset handler at runtime. Each 51errata workaround is identified by its ``ID`` as specified in the processor's 52errata notice document. The format of the define used to enable/disable the 53errata workaround is ``ERRATA_<Processor name>_<ID>``, where the ``Processor name`` 54is for example ``A57`` for the ``Cortex_A57`` CPU. 55 56Refer to :ref:`firmware_design_cpu_errata_reporting` for information on how to 57write errata workaround functions. 58 59All workarounds are disabled by default. The platform is responsible for 60enabling these workarounds according to its requirement by defining the 61errata workaround build flags in the platform specific makefile. In case 62these workarounds are enabled for the wrong CPU revision then the errata 63workaround is not applied. In the DEBUG build, this is indicated by 64printing a warning to the crash console. 65 66In the current implementation, a platform which has more than 1 variant 67with different revisions of a processor has no runtime mechanism available 68for it to specify which errata workarounds should be enabled or not. 69 70The value of the build flags is 0 by default, that is, disabled. A value of 1 71will enable it. 72 73For Cortex-A9, the following errata build flags are defined : 74 75- ``ERRATA_A9_794073``: This applies errata 794073 workaround to Cortex-A9 76 CPU.

This needs to be enabled for some variants of 115 revision <= r0p4.

The DSU errata details can be found in the respective Arm 546documentation: 547 548- `Arm DSU Software Developers Errata Notice`_. 549 550Each erratum is identified by an ``ID``, as defined in the DSU errata notice 551document. Thus, the build flags which enable/disable the errata workarounds 552have the format ``ERRATA_DSU_<ID>``. The implementation and application logic 553of DSU errata workarounds are similar to `CPU errata workarounds`_. 554 555For DSU errata, the following build flags are defined: 556 557- ``ERRATA_DSU_798953``: This applies errata 798953 workaround for the 558 affected DSU configurations. This errata applies only for those DSUs that 559 revision is r0p0 (on r0p1 it is fixed). However, please note that this 560 workaround results in increased DSU power consumption on idle. 561 562- ``ERRATA_DSU_936184``: This applies errata 936184 workaround for the 563 affected DSU configurations. This errata applies only for those DSUs that 564 contain the ACP interface **and** the DSU revision is older than r2p0 (on 565 r2p0 it is fixed). However, please note that this workaround results in 566 increased DSU power consumption on idle. 567 568CPU Specific optimizations 569-------------------------- 570 571This section describes some of the optimizations allowed by the CPU micro 572architecture that can be enabled by the platform as desired. 573 574- ``SKIP_A57_L1_FLUSH_PWR_DWN``: This flag enables an optimization in the 575 Cortex-A57 cluster power down sequence by not flushing the Level 1 data 576 cache. The L1 data cache and the L2 unified cache are inclusive. A flush 577 of the L2 by set/way flushes any dirty lines from the L1 as well. This 578 is a known safe deviation from the Cortex-A57 TRM defined power down 579 sequence. Each Cortex-A57 based platform must make its own decision on 580 whether to use the optimization. 581 582- ``A53_DISABLE_NON_TEMPORAL_HINT``: This flag disables the cache non-temporal 583 hint. The LDNP/STNP instructions as implemented on Cortex-A53 do not behave 584 in a way most programmers expect, and will most probably result in a 585 significant speed degradation to any code that employs them. The Armv8-A 586 architecture (see Arm DDI 0487A.h, section D3.4.3) allows cores to ignore 587 the non-temporal hint and treat LDNP/STNP as LDP/STP instead. Enabling this 588 flag enforces this behaviour. This needs to be enabled only for revisions 589 <= r0p3 of the CPU and is enabled by default. 590 591- ``A57_DISABLE_NON_TEMPORAL_HINT``: This flag has the same behaviour as 592 ``A53_DISABLE_NON_TEMPORAL_HINT`` but for Cortex-A57. This needs to be 593 enabled only for revisions <= r1p2 of the CPU and is enabled by default, 594 as recommended in section "4.7 Non-Temporal Loads/Stores" of the 595 `Cortex-A57 Software Optimization Guide`_. 596 597- ''A57_ENABLE_NON_CACHEABLE_LOAD_FWD'': This flag enables non-cacheable 598 streaming enhancement feature for Cortex-A57 CPUs. Platforms can set 599 this bit only if their memory system meets the requirement that cache 600 line fill requests from the Cortex-A57 processor are atomic. Each 601 Cortex-A57 based platform must make its own decision on whether to use 602 the optimization. This flag is disabled by default. 603 604- ``NEOVERSE_Nx_EXTERNAL_LLC``: This flag indicates that an external last 605 level cache(LLC) is present in the system, and that the DataSource field 606 on the master CHI interface indicates when data is returned from the LLC. 607 This is used to control how the LL_CACHE* PMU events count. 608 Default value is 0 (Disabled). 609 610-------------- 611 612*Copyright (c) 2014-2021, Arm Limited and Contributors.
