Max Filippov 6a89999787 xtensa: use inline assembly instead of XT_* macros
XT_* macros are defined in xtensa HAL headers as xcc intrinsics. gcc
does not have any of these intrinsics. Replace XT_* macros with inline
assembly or provide gcc-compatible definitions.

Ramesh Thomas e314ea3819 timer: tickless: hpet: Add tickless kernel support
Update the timer to use the tickless kernel interface
provided by kernel to operate in event based mode. In
this mode, the timer would not generate periodic ticks
and would only be programmed in one shot mode. It would
announce elapsed time in wall time units instead of
ticks. Timer can also be disabled enabling waiting
forever for a non-timer event.

Ramesh Thomas 89ffd44dfb kernel: tickless: Add tickless kernel support
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

Kumar Gala 789081673f Introduce new sized integer typedefs
This is a start to move away from the C99 {u}int{8,16,32,64}_t types to
Zephyr defined u{8,16,32,64}_t and s{8,16,32,64}_t.  This allows Zephyr
to define the sized types in a consistent manor across all the
architectures we support and not conflict with what various compilers
and libc might do with regards to the C99 types.

We introduce <zephyr/types.h> as part of this and have it include
<stdint.h> for now until we transition all the code away from the C99
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
Zephyr naming conventions.

Rearming the riscv machine timer is done by first updating the
mtimecmp low value register. If the low value is updated with a
relatively small value, a timer interrupt can be generated while
updating the mtimecmp high value.

To avoid such a spurious interrupt to occur, disable the timer
interrupt while rearming the timer.

Andrew Boie 68c9d9779c x86: loapic_timer: use TSC for k_cycle_get_32()
The LOAPIC driver was doing this in a way susceptible to a very
nasty race condition: the CCR register could reset and be readable
before the associated interrupt could be delivered.

This resulted in a small window of time where CCR was reset, but
accumulated_cycle_count not updated, causing some calls to
k_cycle_get_32() to appear to jump backwards in time.

Just use the x86 TSC for these cycle timestamps. A divisor may be
provided in cases where the CPU clock speed is some multiple of
the bus speed. Modern x86 CPUs do not change their TSC rate even
when adjusting cpu frequency, so this should be a reliable timing
source.

Wojciech Bober 923560a959 drivers/timer: Rework the nRF RTC driver.
This is a reworked version of the previous RTC driver. The main
changed is related to the handling _timer_idle_exit() on non-RTC
wake-ups. The previous version didn't announce the elapsed time
to the kernel in _timer_idle_exit(). Additionally, the driver now
makes sure never to announce more idle ticks than the kernel asked
for, since the kernel does not handle negative deltas in its timeout
queues.

Anas Nashif cfbe9b05a1 kernel: rename NANOKERNEL_TICKLESS_IDLE_SUPPORTED
rename NANOKERNEL_TICKLESS_IDLE_SUPPORTED to
TICKLESS_IDLE_SUPPORTED and remove nanokernel occurances in Kconfig
files.

Make TICKLESS_IDLE depend on hardware that supports it.

Anas Nashif 5ad2905532 arm: remove old GDB_INFO support
That module is not used anymore: it was introduced pre-Zephyr to add
some kind of awareness when debugging ARM Cortex-M3 code with GDB but
was never really used by anyone. It has bitrotted, and with the recent
move of the tTCS and tNANO data structures to common _kernel and
k_thread, it does not even compile anymore.

Carles Cufi ca0951d42d drivers: timer: Optimize RTC driver and prevent past events
The nRF RTC driver, which is used a system clock driver due to the lack
of SysTick hardware on the SoC, was using too much CPU time in its
_timer_idle_exit() implementation due to the use of 64-bit arithmetical
operations. This was causing the ISR wrapper to add excessive latency to
critical interrupts, causing BLE controller asserts.
This patch addresses the issue by using exclusively RTC ticks instead of
OS ticks, thus avoiding the necessity to convert during
_timer_idle_exit() calls, which are the most critical to interrupt
latency.

In addition the driver is now able to detect setting tick events in the
past due to it being interrupted by a higher priority context, and will
reschedule and trigger the ISR at the same time.

Julien Delayen d127864366 arcv2_timer0: Add suspend and resume support
When going into DEEP_SLEEP state, the ARC timer
needs to be restored.

This implements the function to restore the timer
after sleep.
As the time spent during sleep is not currently known,
the timer is expired to reschedule the application task.
