Introducing CMake is an important step in a larger effort to make
Zephyr easy to use for application developers working on different
platforms with different development environment needs.
Simplified, this change retains Kconfig as-is, and replaces all
Makefiles with CMakeLists.txt. The DSL-like Make language that KBuild
offers is replaced by a set of CMake extentions. These extentions have
either provided simple one-to-one translations of KBuild features or
introduced new concepts that replace KBuild concepts.
This is a breaking change for existing test infrastructure and build
scripts that are maintained out-of-tree. But for FW itself, no porting
should be necessary.
For users that just want to continue their work with minimal
disruption the following should suffice:
Install CMake 3.8.2+
Port any out-of-tree Makefiles to CMake.
Learn the absolute minimum about the new command line interface:
$ cd samples/hello_world
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -DBOARD=nrf52_pca10040 ..
$ cd build
$ make

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.

Previously, this was only done if an essential thread self-exited,
and was a runtime check that generated a kernel panic.
Now if any thread has k_thread_abort() called on it, and that thread
is essential to the system operation, this check is made. It is now
an assertion.
_NANO_ERR_INVALID_TASK_EXIT checks and printouts removed since this
is now an assertion.

For some reason, the ESP32 HAL defines XCHAL_EXCM_LEVEL to 3. This
enables a version of _Level4Vector that doesn't work on this hardware.
Without complete visibility if the version that should work be axed,
keep both in the tree, but build the working other version instead
if building for ESP32.

This cleans up the exception handling by removing the table declaration

_xt_set_exception_handler() function.
Signed-off-by: Leandro Pereira <leandro.pereira@intel.com>
The Xtensa port was the only one remaining to be converted to the new
way of connecting interrupts in Zephyr. Some things are still
unconverted, mainly the exception table, and this will be performed
another time.
Of note: _irq_priority_set() isn't called on _ARCH_IRQ_CONNECT(), since
IRQs can't change priority on Xtensa: while the architecture has the
concept of interrupt priority levels, each line has a fixed level and
can't be changed.

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

The first stage bootloader, part of the ESP32 ROM, already sets up
a stack that's sufficient to execute C programs. So, instead of
implementing __stack() in assembly, do it in C to simplify things
slightly.
This ESP32-specific initialization will perform the following:
- Disable the watchdog timer that's enabled by the bootloader
- Move exception handlers to IRAM
- Disable normal interrupts
- Disable the second CPU
- Zero out the BSS segment
Things that might be performed in the future include setting up the
CPU frequency, memory protection regions, and enabling the flash
cache.

Stack sentinel doesn't prevent corruption, it just notices when
it happens. Any memory could be in a bad state and it's more
appropriate to take the entire system down rather than just kill
the thread.
Fatal testcase will still work since it installs its own
_SysFatalErrorHandler.

One of the stack sentinel policies was to check the sentinel
any time a cooperative context switch is done (i.e, _Swap is
called).
This was done by adding a hook to _check_stack_sentinel in
every arch's __swap function.
This way is cleaner as we just have the hook in one inline
function rather than implemented in several different assembly
dialects.
The check upon interrupt is now made unconditionally rather
than checking if we are calling __swap, since the check now
is only called on cooperative _Swap(). The interrupt is always
serviced first.

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.

This fixes ZEP-1955. The issue was that the interrupt stack frame only
allocates 4 registers. This means that if any window overflow happens,
only 4 registers can be saved. This implies that the interrupt handler
can not call functions other than using call4. If this rule is not
honored, then it will result in the registers being overwriting other
context information and thus a stack corruption.
The fix consists on using call4 for calling even t logger function,
which is by the way more optimal as the interrupt handler does not need
to save more than 4 registers when these functions are called.

Unlike assertions, these APIs are active at all times. The kernel will
treat these errors in the same way as fatal CPU exceptions. Ultimately,
the policy of what to do with these errors is implemented in
_SysFatalErrorHandler.
If the archtecture supports it, a real CPU exception can be triggered
which will provide a complete register dump and PC value when the
problem occurs. This will provide more helpful information than a fake
exception stack frame (_default_esf) passed to the arch-specific exception
handling code.

types.
We go with u{8,16,32,64}_t and s{8,16,32,64}_t as there are some
existing variables defined u8 & u16 as well as to be consistent with

This commit should fix the concern about uninitialized memory of main
thread that was raised in https://gerrit.zephyrproject.org/r/#/c/12920/
The issue is more general, if it happens that the content of the
CPENABLE flag of any thread is set then any other thread using the CP
may cause a memory corruption.
I'd prefer to avoid the issue by initializing the CP descriptor to 0.
The descriptor itself is few words. We set them to 0 up to CP_ASA, which
is set to a real value.
As the dummy thread instantiated at the kernel startup does not use CP,
there is no CP area in its thread memory buffer. However it is mandatory
that it have the CP descriptor and that cpEnable in that descripot is
set to null. This is ensured by adding XT_CP_DESCR_SIZE to
_K_THREAD_NO_FLOAT_SIZEOF.
