Andrew Boie 2dd91eca0e kernel: move thread monitor init to common code
The original implementation of CONFIG_THREAD_MONITOR would
try to leverage a thread's initial stack layout to provide
the entry function with arguments for any given thread.

This is problematic:

- Some arches do not have a initial stack layout suitable for
this
- Some arches never enabled this at all (riscv32, nios2)
- Some arches did not enable this properly
- Dropping to user mode would erase or provide incorrect
information.

Just spend a few extra bytes to store this stuff directly
in the k_thread struct and get rid of all the arch-specific
code for this.

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 1e06ffc815 zephyr: use k_thread_entry_t everywhere
In various places, a private _thread_entry_t, or the full prototype
were being used. Be consistent and use the same typedef everywhere.

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.

Kumar Gala 96ee45df8d kernel: refactor thread_monitor_init into common code
We do the same thing on all arch's right now for thread_monitor_init so
lets put it in a common place.  This also should fix an issue on xtensa
when thread monitor can be enabled (reference to _nanokernel.threads).

Kumar Gala b8823c4efd kernel: Refactor common _new_thread init code
We do a bit of the same stuff on all the arch's to setup a new thread.
So lets put that code in a common place so we unify it for everyone and
reduce some duplicated code.

There are a few places that we used an naked unsigned type, lets be
explicit and make it 'unsigned int'.

Kumar Gala bf53ebf2c8 arch: convert 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.  There are few places we dont convert over to the new
types because of compatiability with ext/HALs or for ease of transition
at this point.  Fixup a few of the PRI formatters so we build with newlib.

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.

Jean-Paul Etienne cd83e85edc arch: added support for the riscv32 architecture
RISC-V is an open-source instruction set architecture.
Added support for the 32bit version of RISC-V to Zephyr.

1) exceptions/interrupts/faults are handled at the architecture
   level via the __irq_wrapper handler. Context saving/restoring
   of registers can be handled at both architecture and SOC levels.
   If SOC-specific registers need to be saved, SOC level needs to
   provide __soc_save_context and __soc_restore_context functions
   that shall be accounted by the architecture level, when
   corresponding config variable RISCV_SOC_CONTEXT_SAVE is set.

2) As RISC-V architecture does not provide a clear ISA specification
   about interrupt handling, each RISC-V SOC handles it in its own
   way. Hence, at the architecture level, the __irq_wrapper handler
   expects the following functions to be provided by the SOC level:
   __soc_is_irq: to check if the exception is the result of an
                 interrupt or not.
   __soc_handle_irq: handle pending IRQ at SOC level (ex: clear
                     pending IRQ in SOC-specific IRQ register)

3) Thread/task scheduling, as well as IRQ offloading are handled via
   the RISC-V system call ("ecall"), which is also handled via the
   __irq_wrapper handler. The _Swap asm function just calls "ecall"
   to generate an exception.

4) As there is no conventional way of handling CPU power save in
   RISC-V, the default nano_cpu_idle and nano_cpu_atomic_idle
   functions just unlock interrupts and return to the caller, without
   issuing any CPU power saving instruction. Nonetheless, to allow
   SOC-level to implement proper CPU power save, nano_cpu_idle and
   nano_cpu_atomic_idle functions are defined as __weak
   at the architecture level.
