In generic behavior of QEMU, if the pending bits of PLIC are still set and
we clear the SEIP, the QEMU may not set the SEIP back immediately and the
interrupt may not be handled anymore until the new interrupts arrived and
QEMU set the SEIP back which is a generic behavior in QEMU.

<title>firmware: Fix fw_rw_offset computation in fw_base.S</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c8ea836ee33eb778f48f780412e147386dac5301</id>
<content type='text'>
It seems BFD just does totally nonsensical things for SHN_ABS symbols
when producing position-independent outputs (both -pie and -shared)
for various historical reasons, and so SHN_ABS symbols are still
subject to relocation as far as BFD is concerned (except AArch64,
which fixes it in limited cases that don’t apply here...).

The above affects the _fw_rw_offset provided through fw_base.ldS
linker script which results in OpenSBI firmware failing to boot
when loaded at an address different from FW_TEXT_START.

Fixes: c10e3fe5f9a1 ("firmware: Add RW section offset in scratch")

Add the RW section offset, provided by _fw_rw_offset symbol,
to the scratch structure. This will be used to program
separate pmp entry for RW section.

The t3 register stores the address of _load_end. If relocation is not
required, it is unnecessary to calculate the address of _load_end.

This can reduce the operation time of two instructions.

<title>firmware: Move memcpy/memset mapping to fw_base.S</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d30bde36d5b7a7ad74176ddf9ede4d7eb2bca86b</id>
<content type='text'>
Some of the external firmwares using OpenSBI as library are facing
issues with the weak memcpy() and memset() aliases in libsbi.a so
we move these to fw_base.S. This way mapping of implicit memcpy()
or memset() calls to sbi_memcpy() or sbi_memset() will only be done
for OpenSBI firmwares.
(Refer, https://github.com/riscv-software-src/opensbi/issues/234)

In addition, we also add memmove() and memcmp() mappings in fw_base.S
because as-per the GCC documentation the freestanding environment must
provide memcpy(), memmove(), memset(), and memcmp().

The previous code uses _start as the load address, this default .entry is
the first segment, using _fw_start does not need to make this assumption.

<title>firmware: Remove the unhelpful alignment codes before fdt relocation</title>

<content type='text'>
If the device tree is at an address that is not __SIZEOF_POINTER__
aligned, the fdt relocation code tries to align both source and
destination address to __SIZEOF_POINTER__ before the memory copy.
But such alignment can lead to unexpected results if either source
or destination address is not aligned.

In fact libfdt requires that the device tree must be at an 8-byte
aligned address. Hence remove the unhelpful alignment codes.

<title>fw_base: Put data in .data rather than .text</title>

<content type='text'>
The -N linker option is supposed to make .text writable, but GNU ld and
LLD differ in interpreting what that means. GNU ld will happily let you
have relocations in it, but LLD will see that the input section is
read-only (even though the output section is writable) and give an
error. It's unclear if either of them intend to have that behaviour in
this edge case, but regardless there's no reason not to just put the
data in a writable .data section.

<title>fw_base: Don't mark fw_platform_init as both global and weak</title>

These are mutually exclusive. GNU as and LLVM both let later binding
directives override earlier ones so this works as intended, but LLVM 12
turned this into a warning as there's no good reason to do such a thing
and could be a potential bug. Thus, remove the redundant and incorrect
.globl directive for fw_platform_init.
