Andrew Boie 0fab8a6dc5 x86: page-aligned stacks with guard page
Subsequent patches will set this guard page as unmapped,
triggering a page fault on access. If this is due to
stack overflow, a double fault will be triggered,
which we are now capable of handling with a switch to
a know good stack.

Inaky Perez-Gonzalez c51f73f77f boot: add CONFIG_BOOT_DELAY option
Introduce a configurable boot delay option (defaulting to none) that
happens right after printing a boot delay banner, #before calling
main() in kernel/init.c:_main(), before taking timestamps for _main()
and once all the infrastructure is in place. Move also the boot banner
to happen after this delay.

The rationale for this is some boards will boot really fast and print
out some test case output in the serial port before the system that is
monitoring the serial port is able to read from the serial port.

This happens in MCUs whose serial port is embedded in a USB connection
which also is used to power the MCU board. When powering it on by
powering the USB port, there is a time it takes the host system to
detect the USB connection, enumerate the serial port, configure it and
load, start and read from the serial port. At this time, it might have
printed the output of the serial port.

While manually it is possible to press a reset button, on automation
setups this adds a lot of overhead and cabling or modifications to the
MCU that are easier (and cheaper) to overcome with this delay. Other
options (like using a separate serial line) might not be possible or
add a lot of cabling and cost, plus it'd also add extra build
configuration.

Andrew Boie bf5228ea56 kernel: add early init routines for app RAM
Applications will have their own BSS and data sections which
will need to be additionally copied.

This covers the common C implementation of these functions.
Arches which implement their own optimized versions will need
to be updated.

Adithya Baglody be1cb961ad tests: benchmark: boot_time: Reading time stamps made arch agnostic
1. Changed _tsc_read() to k_cycles_get_32(). Thus reading the
time stamp will be agnostic of the architecutre used.
2. Changed the variable names from *_tsc to *_time_stamp.

Andrew Boie dc5d935d12 kernel: introduce stack definition macros
The existing __stack decorator is not flexible enough for upcoming
thread stack memory protection scenarios. Wrap the entire thing in
a declaration macro abstraction instead, which can be implemented
on a per-arch or per-SOC basis.

Andrew Boie d26cf2dc33 kernel: add k_thread_create() API
Unline k_thread_spawn(), the struct k_thread can live anywhere and not
in the thread's stack region. This will be useful for memory protection
scenarios where private kernel structures for a thread are not
accessible by that thread, or we want to allow the thread to use all the
stack space we gave it.

This requires a change to the internal _new_thread() API as we need to
provide a separate pointer for the k_thread.

By default, we still create internal threads with the k_thread in stack
memory. Forthcoming patches will change this, but we first need to make
it easier to define k_thread memory of variable size depending on
whether we need to store coprocessor state or not.

Kumar Gala cc334c7273 Convert remaining code to using newly introduced integer sized types
Convert code to use u{8,16,32,64}_t and s{8,16,32,64}_t instead of C99
integer types.  This handles the remaining includes and kernel, plus
touching up various points that we skipped because of include
dependancies.  We also convert the PRI printf formatters in the arch
code over to normal formatters.

Mazen NEIFER e2bbad9600 kernel: init: use C implementation for STACK_CANARY_INIT
Due to a limitation on XCC, the inline assembly does not
produce the expected instructions. This results in a wrong
code sequence. On the other hand, plain C code works well.
The note about compilers seems to not be an issue on any of

Manually updated subsys/logging/sys_log.c that had a malformed

Carles Cufi cb0cf9f5f4 kernel: profiling: Expose an API call to analyze call stacks
The main, idle, interrupt and workqueue call stack definitions are not available
to applications to call stack_analyze() on, but they often require to be
measured empirically to tune their sizes in particular applications and
use cases.
This exposes a new k_call_stacks_analyze() API call that allows the
application to measure the used call stack space for the 4
kernel-defined call stacks.
Additionally for the ARC architecture the FIRQ stack is also profiled.

Benjamin Walsh f955476559 kernel/arch: optimize memory use of some thread fields
Some thread fields were 32-bit wide, when they are not even close to
using that full range of values. They are instead changed to 8-bit fields.

- prio can fit in one byte, limiting the priorities range to -128 to 127

- recursive scheduler locking can be limited to 255; a rollover results
  most probably from a logic error

- flags are split into execution flags and thread states; 8 bits is
  enough for each of them currently, with at worst two states and four
  flags to spare (on x86, on other archs, there are six flags to spare)

Doing this saves 8 bytes per stack. It also sets up an incoming
enhancement when checking if the current thread is preemptible on
interrupt exit.
