Both the ARM and NXP MPU drivers incorrectly calculated the region index
by assuming the region type (e.g., THREAD_STACK_GUARD_REGION) was
zero-indexed, when in reality it is one-indexed. This had the effect of
wasting one region.

The NXP MPU requires special handling of region descriptor 0 to
guarantee that the debugger has access to the entire address space. It
does not allow writes from the core to affect the start or end
addresses, or the permissions associated with the debugger.
The original implementation of this driver attempted to work around
region descriptor 0, resulting in an off-by-1 error caught by Coverity.
Instead, define region descriptor 0 explicitly in the mpu_regions array,
and add some asserts to ensure that one doesn't try to change its start
or end addresses. This has an added benefit such that more permissions
can be enabled in region 0 if desired, whereas the previous
implementation always forced all writable permissions to be cleared.

The original implementation of _get_num_regions() parsed the CESR[NRGD]
register field to determine the number of mpu region descriptors
implemented in hardware. There was a possible path in the code to return
zero, which would cause underflow later on in arm_core_mpu_configure().
Coverity complained despite an assert to catch this condition. Instead,
use a preprocessor macro from mcux that defines the number of mpu region
descriptors.

Stack sentinel doesn't prevent corruption, it just notices when

appropriate to take the entire system down rather than just kill
the thread.

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.

The REGION bits (bit[3:0]) of MPU_RBAR register can specify the number
of the region to update if the VALID bit (bit[4]) is also set.
If the bit[3:0] of "region_addr" are not zero, might cause to update
unexpected region. This could happen since we might not declare stack
memory with specific alignment.
This patch will mask the bit[4:0] of "region_addr" to prevent updating

The kernel tracks time slice usage with the _time_slice_elapsed global.
Every time the timer interrupt goes off and the timer driver calls
_nano_sys_clock_tick_announce() with the elapsed time, this is added to
_time_slice_elapsed. If it exceeds the total time slice, the thread is
moved to the back of the queue for that priority level and
_time_slice_elapsed is reset to zero.
In a non-tickless kernel, this is the only time _time_slice_elapsed is
reset. If a thread uses up a partial time slice, and then cooperatively
switches to another thread, the next thread will inherit the remaining
time slice, causing it not to be able to run as long as it ought to.
There does exist code to properly reset the elapsed count, but it was
only compiled in a tickless kernel. Now it is built any time
CONFIG_TIMESLICING is enabled.

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.

Adds event based scheduling logic to the kernel. Updates
management of timeouts, timers, idling etc. based on
time tracked at events rather than periodic ticks. Provides
interfaces for timers to announce and get next timer expiry
based on kernel scheduling decisions involving time slicing
of threads, timeouts and idling. Uses wall time units instead
of ticks in all scheduling activities.
The implementation involves changes in the following areas
1. Management of time in wall units like ms/us instead of ticks
The existing implementation already had an option to configure
number of ticks in a second. The new implementation builds on
top of that feature and provides option to set the size of the
scheduling granurality to mili seconds or micro seconds. This
allows most of the current implementation to be reused. Due to
this re-use and co-existence with tick based kernel, the names
of variables may contain the word "tick". However, in the
tickless kernel implementation, it represents the currently
configured time unit, which would be be mili seconds or
micro seconds. The APIs that take time as a parameter are not
impacted and they continue to pass time in mili seconds.
2. Timers would not be programmed in periodic mode
generating ticks. Instead they would be programmed in one
shot mode to generate events at the time the kernel scheduler
needs to gain control for its scheduling activities like
timers, timeouts, time slicing, idling etc.
3. The scheduler provides interfaces that the timer drivers
use to announce elapsed time and get the next time the scheduler
needs a timer event. It is possible that the scheduler may not
need another timer event, in which case the system would wait
for a non-timer event to wake it up if it is idling.
4. New APIs are defined to be implemented by timer drivers. Also
they need to handler timer events differently. These changes
have been done in the HPET timer driver. In future other timers
that support tickles kernel should implement these APIs as well.
These APIs are to re-program the timer, update and announce
elapsed time.
5. Philosopher and timer_api applications have been enabled to
test tickless kernel. Separate configuration files are created
which define the necessary CONFIG flags. Run these apps using
following command
make pristine && make BOARD=qemu_x86 CONF_FILE=prj_tickless.conf qemu

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.

For exceptions where we are just going to abort the current thread, we
need to exit handler mode properly so that PendSV can run and perform a

handling code path can indeed return if we were 1) in handler mode and
2) only wish to abort the current thread.
Fixes a very long-standing bug where a thread that generates an
exception, and should only abort the thread, instead takes down the

Currently, ARM Cortex-M image ROMs are linked starting at the flash
device's base address (CONFIG_FLASH_BASE_ADDRESS). This prevents XIP
Zephyr applications from being linked to run from elsewhere on the
flash device. Linking Zephyr applications to run from elsewhere can be
necessary when running under a bootloader (i.e., booting into a Zephyr
application from a bootloader, not using Zephyr as a bootloader).
To enable this use case, add a new config option: FLASH_LOAD_OFFSET.
This option directs the linker to treat ROM as if it started that many
bytes from the base of flash on Cortex-M targets. The option defaults
to zero to preserve backwards compatibility.
