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.

Kumar Gala 5742a508a2 kernel: cleanup use of naked unsigned in _new_thread
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.

Benjamin Walsh a8978aba8f kernel: rename thread states symbols
They are not part of the API, so rename from K_<state> to
_THREAD_<state>.

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.
