Andrew Boie 4f77c2ad53 kernel: rename z_arch_ to arch_
Promote the private z_arch_* namespace, which specifies
the interface between the core kernel and the
architecture code, to a new top-level namespace named
arch_*.

This allows our documentation generation to create
online documentation for this set of interfaces,
and this set of interfaces is worth treating in a
more formal way anyway.

Stephanos Ioannidis 2d7460482d headers: Refactor kernel and arch headers.
This commit refactors kernel and arch headers to establish a boundary
between private and public interface headers.

The refactoring strategy used in this commit is detailed in the issue

This commit introduces the following major changes:

1. Establish a clear boundary between private and public headers by
  removing "kernel/include" and "arch/*/include" from the global
  include paths. Ideally, only kernel/ and arch/*/ source files should
  reference the headers in these directories. If these headers must be
  used by a component, these include paths shall be manually added to
  the CMakeLists.txt file of the component. This is intended to
  discourage applications from including private kernel and arch
  headers either knowingly and unknowingly.

  - kernel/include/ (PRIVATE)
    This directory contains the private headers that provide private
   kernel definitions which should not be visible outside the kernel
   and arch source code. All public kernel definitions must be added
   to an appropriate header located under include/.

  - arch/*/include/ (PRIVATE)
    This directory contains the private headers that provide private
   architecture-specific definitions which should not be visible
   outside the arch and kernel source code. All public architecture-
   specific definitions must be added to an appropriate header located
   under include/arch/*/.

  - include/ AND include/sys/ (PUBLIC)
    This directory contains the public headers that provide public
   kernel definitions which can be referenced by both kernel and
   application code.

  - include/arch/*/ (PUBLIC)
    This directory contains the public headers that provide public
   architecture-specific definitions which can be referenced by both
   kernel and application code.

2. Split arch_interface.h into "kernel-to-arch interface" and "public
  arch interface" divisions.

  - kernel/include/kernel_arch_interface.h
    * provides private "kernel-to-arch interface" definition.
    * includes arch/*/include/kernel_arch_func.h to ensure that the
     interface function implementations are always available.
    * includes sys/arch_interface.h so that public arch interface
     definitions are automatically included when including this file.

  - arch/*/include/kernel_arch_func.h
    * provides architecture-specific "kernel-to-arch interface"
     implementation.
    * only the functions that will be used in kernel and arch source
     files are defined here.

  - include/sys/arch_interface.h
    * provides "public arch interface" definition.
    * includes include/arch/arch_inlines.h to ensure that the
     architecture-specific public inline interface function
     implementations are always available.

  - include/arch/arch_inlines.h
    * includes architecture-specific arch_inlines.h in
     include/arch/*/arch_inline.h.

  - include/arch/*/arch_inline.h
    * provides architecture-specific "public arch interface" inline
     function implementation.
    * supersedes include/sys/arch_inline.h.

3. Refactor kernel and the existing architecture implementations.

  - Remove circular dependency of kernel and arch headers. The
   following general rules should be observed:

    * Never include any private headers from public headers
    * Never include kernel_internal.h in kernel_arch_data.h
    * Always include kernel_arch_data.h from kernel_arch_func.h
    * Never include kernel.h from kernel_struct.h either directly or
     indirectly. Only add the kernel structures that must be referenced
     from public arch headers in this file.

  - Relocate syscall_handler.h to include/ so it can be used in the
   public code. This is necessary because many user-mode public codes
   reference the functions defined in this header.

  - Relocate kernel_arch_thread.h to include/arch/*/thread.h. This is
   necessary to provide architecture-specific thread definition for
   'struct k_thread' in kernel.h.

  - Remove any private header dependencies from public headers using
   the following methods:

    * If dependency is not required, simply omit
    * If dependency is required,
      - Relocate a portion of the required dependencies from the
       private header to an appropriate public header OR
      - Relocate the required private header to make it public.

Andrew Boie 979b17f243 kernel: activate arch interface headers
Duplicate definitions elsewhere have been removed.

A couple functions which are defined by the arch interface
to be non-inline, but were implemented inline by native_posix
and intel64, have been moved to non-inline.

Some missing conditional compilation for z_arch_irq_offload()

Ioannis Glaropoulos 5a709f5dc9 kernel: init: use K_THREAD_STACK_SIZEOF when switching to main thread
For architectures with custom swap to main, currently:
- arm
- posix
we are now using K_THREAD_STACK_SIZEOF macro to pass the

This does not introduce any behavioral changes for posix;
the K_THREAD_STACK_SIZEOF() simply returns the sizeof()
the stack object. For Arm, this allows us to clean-up one
more occurence of CONFIG_MPU_REQUIRES_POWER_OF_TWO_ALIGNMENT
in kernel_arch_func.h.

Andrew Boie 4e5c093e66 kernel: demote K_THREAD_STACK_BUFFER() to private
This macro is slated for complete removal, as it's not possible
on arches with an MPU stack guard to know the true buffer bounds
without also knowing the runtime state of its associated thread.

As removing this completely would be invasive to where we are
in the 1.14 release, demote to a private kernel Z_ API instead.
The current way that the macro is being used internally will
not cause any undue harm, we just don't want any external code
depending on it.

The final work to remove this (and overhaul stack specification in
general) will take place in 1.15 in the context of #14269

   '_K_' with 'Z_'
   '_handler_' with 'z_handl_'

This renaming is done on both global and those static function names

are renamed by removing the leading underscore. Other function names
not starting with any prefix listed above are renamed starting with
a 'z_' or 'Z_' prefix.

Function names starting with two or three leading underscores are not
automatcally renamed since these names will collide with the variants
with two or three leading underscores.

Andrew Boie c5c104f91e kernel: fix k_thread_stack_t definition
Currently this is defined as a k_thread_stack_t pointer.
However this isn't correct, stacks are defined as arrays. Extern
references to k_thread_stack_t doesn't work properly as the compiler
treats it as a pointer to the stack array and not the array itself.

Declaring as an unsized array of k_thread_stack_t doesn't work
well either. The least amount of confusion is to leave out the
pointer/array status completely, use pointers for function prototypes,
and define K_THREAD_STACK_EXTERN() to properly create an extern
reference.

The definitions for all functions and struct that use
k_thread_stack_t need to be updated, but code that uses them should
be unchanged.

Andrew Boie 507852a4ad kernel: introduce opaque data type for stacks
Historically, stacks were just character buffers and could be treated
as such if the user wanted to look inside the stack data, and also
declared as an array of the desired stack size.

This is no longer the case. Certain architectures will create a memory
region much larger to account for MPU/MMU guard pages. Unfortunately,
the kernel interfaces treat both the declared stack, and the valid
stack buffer within it as the same char * data type, even though these
absolutely cannot be used interchangeably.

We introduce an opaque k_thread_stack_t which gets instantiated by
K_THREAD_STACK_DECLARE(), this is no longer treated by the compiler
as a character pointer, even though it really is.

To access the real stack buffer within, the result of
K_THREAD_STACK_BUFFER() can be used, which will return a char * type.

This should catch a bunch of programming mistakes at build time:

- Declaring a character array outside of K_THREAD_STACK_DECLARE() and
  passing it to K_THREAD_CREATE
- Directly examining the stack created by K_THREAD_STACK_DECLARE()
  which is not actually the memory desired and may trigger a CPU
  exception

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.

David B. Kinder ac74d8b652 license: Replace Apache boilerplate with SPDX tag
Replace the existing Apache 2.0 boilerplate header with an SPDX tag
throughout the zephyr code tree. This patch was generated via a
script run over the master branch.

Also updated doc/porting/application.rst that had a dependency on
line numbers in a literal include.

Manually updated subsys/logging/sys_log.c that had a malformed
header in the original file.  Also cleanup several cases that already
had a SPDX tag and we either got a duplicate or missed updating.

Jira: ZEP-1457

Marcus Shawcroft 84cb997c62 arm: Adjust cortex-m7 support to reflect its ARMv7-M architecture.
The cortex-m7 is an implementation of armv7-m.  Adjust the Kconfig
support for cortex-m7 to reflect this and drop the unnecessary,
explicit, conditional compilation.

Marcus Shawcroft ef8200dfcd arm: Replace CONFIG_CPU_CORTEX_M3_M4 with CONFIG_ARMV7_M
Precursor patches have arranged that conditional compilation hanging
on CONFIG_CPU_CORTEX_M3_M4 provides support for ARMv7-M, rename the
config variable to reflect this.
