With this commit it is possible to add priority to sent or received
network packets. So user is able to send or receive higher priority
packets faster than lower level packets.
The traffic class support is activated by CONFIG_NET_TC_COUNT option.
The TC support uses work queues to separate the traffic. The
priority of the work queue thread specifies the ordering of the
network traffic. Each work queue thread handles traffic to one specific
work queue. Note that you should not enable traffic classes unless
you really need them by your application. Each TC thread needs
stack so this feature requires more memory.
It is possible to disable transmit traffic class support and keep the
receive traffic class support, or vice versa. If both RX and TX traffic
classes are enabled, then both will use the same number of queues
defined by CONFIG_NET_TC_COUNT option.

This patch does several things, most notably it changes the semantics
of CONFIG_DEBUG. CONFIG_DEBUG continues to behave as a vaguely defined
"debug mode" that enables printf's, -Og, etc. but now the user may
choose to be in "debug mode" while using a different optimization
level than -Og.
Tp support this a new config is defined to enable -Og;
CONFIG_DEBUG_OPTIMIZATIONS.
Additionally CONFIG_SIZE_OPTIMIZATIONS is introduced to allow the user
to explicitly request optimizing for size instead of relying on
defaulting to it.
The three config's {NO,SIZE,DEBUG}_OPTIMIZATIONS are now organized in
a Kconfig choice to ensure that at most one can be enabled at a time.
Finally, selected users of CONFIG_DEBUG have been ported to use one of
the optimizations configs when it was clear from usage that the
intention was to behave differently when using a different
optimization level and not when in "debug mode".

The linker script places kernelspace and userspace archives in
different sections. But the linker script itself does not determine
what archives are in what space, that is done by CMake.
CMake passes the list of kernelspace archives to the linker script
through defines, like this:
-DNUM_KERNEL_OBJECT_FILES=3
-DKERNEL_OBJECT_FILE_0=path/to/archive_a.a
-DKERNEL_OBJECT_FILE_1=path/to/archive_b.a
-DKERNEL_OBJECT_FILE_2=path/to/archive_c.a
These paths are relative, and since Ninja and Make invoke the linker
with different "working directories"[0], the relative paths need to be
different. This patch rectifies the relative path when using Ninja.

It's possible to declare static threads that start up as K_USER,
but these threads can't do much since they start with permissions on
no kernel objects other than their own thread object.
Rather than do some run-time synchronization to have some other thread
grant the necessary permissions, we introduce macros
to conveniently assign object permissions to these threads when they
are brought up at boot by the kernel. The tables generated here
are constant and live in ROM when possible.
Example usage:
K_THREAD_DEFINE(my_thread, STACK_SIZE, my_thread_entry,
NULL, NULL, NULL, 0, K_USER, K_NO_WAIT);
K_THREAD_ACCESS_GRANT(my_thread, &my_sem, &my_mutex, &my_pipe);

We need to track permission on stack memory regions like we do
with other kernel objects. We want stacks to live in a memory
area that is outside the scope of memory domain permission
management. We need to be able track what stacks are in use,
and what stacks may be used by user threads trying to call
k_thread_create().
Some special handling is needed because thread stacks appear as
variously-sized arrays of struct _k_thread_stack_element which is
just a char. We need the entire array to be considered an object,
but also properly handle arrays of stacks.
Validation of stacks also requires that the bounds of the stack
are not exceeded. Various approaches were considered. Storing
the size in some header region of the stack itself would not allow
the stack to live in 'noinit'. Having a stack object be a data
structure that points to the stack buffer would confound our
current APIs for declaring stacks as arrays or struct members.
In the end, the struct _k_object was extended to store this size.

All system calls made from userspace which involve pointers to kernel
objects (including device drivers) will need to have those pointers
validated; userspace should never be able to crash the kernel by passing
it garbage.
The actual validation with _k_object_validate() will be in the system
call receiver code, which doesn't exist yet.
- CONFIG_USERSPACE introduced. We are somewhat far away from having an
end-to-end implementation, but at least need a Kconfig symbol to
guard the incoming code with. Formal documentation doesn't exist yet
either, but will appear later down the road once the implementation is
mostly finalized.
- In the memory region for RAM, the data section has been moved last,
past bss and noinit. This ensures that inserting generated tables
with addresses of kernel objects does not change the addresses of
those objects (which would make the table invalid)
- The DWARF debug information in the generated ELF binary is parsed to
fetch the locations of all kernel objects and pass this to gperf to
create a perfect hash table of their memory addresses.
- The generated gperf code doesn't know that we are exclusively working
with memory addresses and uses memory inefficently. A post-processing
script process_gperf.py adjusts the generated code before it is
compiled to work with pointer values directly and not strings
containing them.
- _k_object_init() calls inserted into the init functions for the set of
kernel object types we are going to support so far

These special kernel sections represent arrays of kernel objects than
are iterated over at runtime to perform initialization.
The code expects all the data in these sections to be in the form of an
array of that section type, with each element sizeof(type) bytes apart.
Unfortunately, the linker sometimes has other plans and in some cases
was defaulting to aligning the data to some large power-of-two value,
such as 64 bytes. This causes any attempt to iterate over these sections
to fail as they are not a proper array.
Use the ld SUBALIGN() directive to force the alignment of these input
sections to 4 bytes.

Upcoming memory protection features will be placing some additional
constraints on kernel objects:
- They need to reside in memory owned by the kernel and not the
application
- Certain kernel object validation schemes will require some run-time
initialization of all kernel objects before they can be used.
Per Ben these initializer macros were never intended to be public. It is
not forbidden to use them, but doing so requires care: the memory being
initialized must reside in kernel space, and extra runtime
initialization steps may need to be peformed before they are fully
usable as kernel objects. In particular, kernel subsystems or drivers
whose objects are already in kernel memory may still need to use these
macros if they define kernel objects as members of a larger data
structure.
It is intended that application developers instead use the
K_<object>_DEFINE macros, which will automatically put the object in the
right memory and add them to a section which can be iterated over at
boot to complete initiailization.
There was no K_WORK_DEFINE() macro for creating struct k_work objects,
this is now added.
k_poll_event and k_poll_signal are intended to be instatiated from
application memory and have not been changed.

For various reasons its often necessary to generate certain
complex data structures at build-time by separate tools outside
of the C compiler. Data is populated to these tools by way of
special binary sections not intended to be included in the final
binary. We currently do this to generate interrupt tables, forthcoming
work will also use this to generate MMU page tables.
The way we have been doing this is to generatea "kernel_prebuilt.elf",
extract the metadata sections with objcopy, run the tool, and then
re-link the kernel with the extra data *and* use objcopy to pull
out the unwanted sections.
This doesn't scale well if multiple post-build steps are needed.
Now this is much simpler; in any Makefile, a special
GENERATED_KERNEL_OBJECT_FILES variable may be appended to containing
the filenames to the generated object files, which will be generated
by Make in the usual fashion.
Instead of using objcopy to pull out, we now create a linker-pass2.cmd
which additionally defines LINKER_PASS2. The source linker script
can #ifdef around this to use the special /DISCARD/ section target
to not include metadata sections in the final binary.

This is a new mechanism for generating interrupt tables which will
be useful on many architectures. It replaces the old linker-based
mechanism for creating these tables and has a couple advantages:
1) It is now possible to use enums as the IRQ line argument to
IRQ_CONNECT(), which should ease CMSIS integration.
2) The vector table itself is now generated, which lets us place
interrupts directly into the vector table without having to
hard-code them. This is a feature we have long enjoyed on x86
and will enable 'direct' interrupts.
3) More code is common, requiring less arch-specific code to
support.
This patch introduces the common code for this mechanism. Follow-up
patches will enable it on various arches.
