__FUNCTION__ is a pre-standard extension that gcc and Visual C++ among
others support, while __func__ was standardized in C99.
Since it's more standard, replace __FUNCTION__ with __func__ throughout
ArmVirtPkg.

The IdMap.S asm source file has not executable content, but its lack of
a BTI annotation prevents the linker from marking any executables it
emits as BTI compatible if this object is part of the build. So add the

The Rtc library for the kvmtool guest firmware configures the
RTC controller address range as runtime memory by calling the
gDS->SetMemorySpaceAttributes().
The SetMemorySpaceAttributes() function has a dependency on
the CPU Arch Protocol. If the CPU Arch Protocol is not
installed the call to set the memory attributes fails with
error code EFI_NOT_AVAILABLE_YET.
Therefore, set the library dependency on the CPU Arch protocol.

When scanning for the Serial Port in the device
tree, the length and value parameters to ScanMem8()
are not in the right order. This results in the
serial port not being detected if the chosen node
in the device tree has additional elements.
Therefore, pass the parameters to ScanMem8() in the
correct order to fix this issue.

The PEI flavor of the ArmMmuLib will install a HOB that exposes its
implementation of the special helper routine that is used to update live
entries, so that other instantiations of ArmMmuLib can invoke it. This
is needed to ensure that splitting page tables using break-before-make
(BBM) does not unmap the code that is performing the split.
However, the BASE variety of ArmMmuLib discovers the HOB and sets a
global pointer to refer to it, which is not possible in PEIMs, and so
all PEIMs must use the PEI variety of this library if one does.

ArmVirtQemuKernel.dsc describes a firmware build that is loadable at
arbitrary address and can be invoked using the Linux/arm64 kernel boot
protocol. The early code deviates significantly from ArmVirtQemu, and so
it makes sense to cover this platform in CI even if it is not widely
used. This ensures that the relocatable PrePi and other components in
EmbeddedPkg don't regress on ARM as they are being updated for use on
TDVF.

The initial ID map used by ArmVirtQemu only covers 2 MiB of NOR flash,
while the NOOPT build can be up to 3 MiB in size, resulting in a crash
if the unmapped 1 MiB is accessed before the real page tables are up.
So increate the initial flash mapping to 4 MiB.

PrePi has a bare metal entry point, and so it is in charge of calling
the library constructors once the C runtime has been initialized
sufficiently.
However, we are now relying on a HOB to have been constructed by the

that.

Commit 789a72328553 reclassified the NOR flash region as EFI_MEMORY_WC
in the OS visible EFI memory map, and dropped the explicit aligned
CopyMem() implementation, in the assumption that EFI_MEMORY_WC will be
honored by the OS, and that the region will be mapped in a way that
tolerates misaligned accesseses. However, Linux today uses device
attributes for all EFI MMIO regions, in spite of the memory type
attributes, and so using misaligned accesses is never safe.
So instead, switch to the generic CopyMem() implementation entirely,
just like we already did for VariableRuntimeDxe.

The early ID map used by ArmVirtQemu uses ASID scoped non-global
mappings, as this allows us to switch to the permanent ID map seamlessly
without the need for explicit TLB maintenance.
However, this triggers a known erratum on ThunderX, which does not
tolerate non-global mappings that are executable at EL1, as this appears
to result in I-cache corruption. (Linux disables the KPTI based Meltdown
mitigation on ThunderX for the same reason)
So work around this, by detecting the CPU implementor and part number,
and proceeding without the early ID map if a ThunderX CPU is detected.
Note that this requires the C code to be built with strict alignment
again, as we may end up executing it with the MMU and caches off.

MemoryInit PEIM that relies on dynamic PCDs to communicate the size of

the PCD PEIM as well, for no good reason. So instead, let's use a HOB.

Now that we have all the pieces in place, switch the AArch64 version of
ArmVirtQemu to a mode where the first thing it does out of reset is
enable a preliminary ID map that covers the NOR flash and sufficient
DRAM to create the UEFI page tables as usual.
The advantage of this is that no manipulation of memory occurs any
longer before the MMU is enabled, which removes the need for explicit
coherency management, which is cumbersome and bad for performance.
It also means we no longer need to build all components that may execute
with the MMU off (including BASE libraries) with strict alignment.

Following the Hardware Info library, create the DxeHardwareInfoLib
which implements the whole API capable of parsing heterogeneous hardware
information. The list-like API grants callers a flexible and common
pattern to retrieve the data. Moreover, the initial source is a BLOB
which generalizes the host-to-guest transmission mechanism.
The Hardware Info library main objective is to provide a way to
describe non-discoverable hardware so that the host can share the
available resources with the guest in Ovmf platforms. This change
features and embraces the main idea behind the library by providing
an API that parses a BLOB into a linked list to retrieve hardware
data from any source. Additionally, list-like APIs are provided so
that the hardware info list can be traversed conveniently.
Similarly, the capability is provided to filter results by specific
hardware types. However, heterogeneous elements can be added to the
list, increasing the flexibility. This way, a single source, for
example a fw-cfg file, can be used to describe several instances of
multiple types of hardware.
This part of the Hardware Info library makes use of dynamic memory
and is intended for stages in which memory services are available.
A motivation example is the PciHostBridgeLib. This library, part
of the PCI driver populates the list of PCI root bridges during DXE
stage for future steps to discover the resources under them. The
hardware info library can be used to obtain the detailed description
of available host bridges, for instance in the form of a fw-cfg file,
and parse that information into a dynmaic list that allows, first to
verify consistency of the data, and second discover the resources
availabe for each root bridge.

Define the HardwareInfoLib API and create the PeiHardwareInfoLib
which implements it, specifically for Pei usage, supporting
only static accesses to parse data directly from a fw-cfg file.
All list-like APIs are implemented as unsupported and only a
fw-cfg wrapper to read hardware info elements is provided.
The Hardware Info library is intended to describe non-discoverable
hardware information and share that from the host to the guest in Ovmf
platforms. The QEMU fw-cfg extension for this library provides a first
variation to parse hardware info by reading it directly from a fw-cfg
file. This library offers a wrapper function to the plain
QmeuFwCfgReadBytes which, specifically, parses header-data pairs out
of the binary values in the file. For this purpose, the approach is
incremental, reading the file block by block and outputting the values
only for a specific known hardware type (e.g. PCI host bridges). One
element is returned in each call until the end of the file is reached.
Considering fw-cfg as the first means to transport hardware info from
the host to the guest, this wrapping library offers the possibility
to statically, and in steps, read a specific type of hardware info
elements out of the file. This method reads one hardware element of a
specific type at a time, without the need to pre-allocate memory and
read the whole file or dynamically allocate memory for each new
element found.
As a usage example, the static approach followed by this library
enables early UEFI stages to use and read hardware information
supplied by the host. For instance, in early times of the PEI stage,
hardware information can be parsed out from a fw-cfg file prescinding
from memory services, that may not yet be available, and avoiding
dynamic memory allocations.
