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

This is necessary in order for k_queue_get to work properly since that
is used with buffer pools which might be used by multiple threads asking
for buffers.

Previous stack definition caused following warning: passing argument 2
of 'k_thread_create' from incompatible pointer type.

Print the entire memory areas of interest on error, instead of
stopping at the first null character.

This includes files for both polled and IRQ-driven I/O. The log level
is deliberately kept to ERROR to try to shake out any timing-dependent
bugs which go away with extra logging.

k_thread_cancel() is replaced with k_thread_abort() because
k_thread_cancel() is used to cancel threads that have not started yet.
Canceling asynchronous thread was returning an error.

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.
