This port was effort of a number of people, I rather arbitrarily gave authorship to Guiding Li because he has the largest number of fundamental quashed commits from the Xiamoi repository.
Squashed commit of the following:
Author: Xiang Xiao <xiaoxiang@pinecone.net>
include/nuttx/b2c.h and libx/libc/string: Add non-standard string functions to deal with cases where there are more than 8-bits in a type char.
Author: Gregory Nutt <gnutt@nuttx.org>
Fix several build issues/missing definitiona needed for OpenAMP build in drivers/.
Add OpenAMP code has been reviewed and ran through tools/nxstyle (with all reports accounted for).
Author: Xiang Xiao <xiaoxiang@xiaomi.com>
tools/: Fix the minor issue in Makefile
Author: Gregory Nutt <gnutt@nuttx.org>
drivers/rptun/rptun.c: Review for coding standard. Run against tools/nxstyle.
tools/LibTargets.mk: Fix some TABs that were turned into spaces by a copy-paste.
fs/hostfs: Add configure and build support for hostfs RPC.
drivers/timer: Add configure and build support for syslog RTC.
drivers/syslog: Add configure and build support for syslog RPC.
drivers/serial: Add configure and build support for serial RPC.
Kconfig, tools/*.mk. openamp/: Add basic OpenAMP build support.
drivers/rptun: Add configure and build support for OpenAMP tunnel drivers.
drivers/net: Update Make.defs and Kconfig for OpenSDA support.
Remove drivers/clk/clk-rpmsg.c drivers/power/rpmsg_regulator.c. These depend on upstreaming support for a new subsystem based on the clk/regulator is model from Linux. Removed because we want to separate the activities. We will just try to get the basic OpenAMP support in place for now.
Remove drivers/misc/misc_rpmsg.c and include/nuttx/misc/misc_rpmsg.h. These are specific to the Xiaomi application.

This commit brings in the OpenAMP OS driver/RPC components from https://github.com/FishsemiCode/nuttx. Initial commit is source files only. Additional changes to Kconfig and Make.defs files still needed.

math library is also needed, however, here are various ways to provide a
math library so CONFIG_LIBM is not now set.
boards/arm/stm32l4/nucleo-l476rg/scripts/Make.defs: Add required
definitiions if libcxx is enabled.
Remove hardcoded -DCLOCK_MONOTONIC from CFLAGS in Make.defs of several configurations. That defintiion is now automatically adding this define when CONFIG_LIBCXX=y.
task_spawn() and posix_spawn() are NuttX OS interfaces. In PROTECTED and KERNEL build modes, then can be reached from applications only via a system call. Currently, the number of parameters in a system call is limited to six; these spawn function have seven parameters. Rather than extend the maximum number of parameters across all architectures, I opted instead to marshal the seven parameters into a structure.
*
In order to support builtin in function in protected mode, a task_spawn() system call must be supported. Unfortunately this is overly complex because there is a (soft) limit of 6 parameters in a system call; task_spawn has seven paramters. This is a soft limit but still difficult to extend because it involves assembly language changes to numerous architectures. Better to get more creative.
Squashed commit of the following:
Correct some additional compile-related issues.
Move include/nuttx/binfmt/builtin.h to include/nuttx/lib/builtin.h. Move apps/builtin/lib_builtin_forindex.c to libs/libc/builtin/lib_builtin_forindex.c.
Move binfmt/libbuiltin to libs/libc/builtin. There are calls made directly from apps/nshlib into this logic and hence, must be part of a library that can be shared between the OS and applications.
Provided changes add option (CONFIG_EXECFUNCS_GENERATE_SYSTEM_SYMTAB) to build complete list of available functions and syscalls automatically. The symbolic table is generated in form libsymtab.a which can be reused by application or directly pull in when "g_symtab" and "g_nsymbols" variables are requested by EXECFUNCS configuration.
I have tried to follow mechanisms for library compilation in different kernel protection modes but tested only flat no-MMU build. The basic assumption is that this library and libraries providing syscall stubs and C-library functions are available in user-space context and initial application (usually NSH) registers the symbol table through IOCTL. The table can be reused then by another applications in their address space as kernel allows. Simple for flat or protected mode, I am not sure if really support in MMU mode. It is highly probable that I have made some mistake, overlooked something, but functionality is optional (should not cause troubles in any mode if disabled) and main purpose is to lower memory overhead when more applications are loaded on memory constrained system which usually use direct kernel calling without protection or address space separation. If the table should be provided by kernel to applications then makefiles has to be adjusted.
