Thread analyzer
###################
The thread analyzer module enables all the Zephyr options required to track
the thread information, e.g. thread stack size usage and other runtime thread
runtime statistics.
The analysis is performed on demand when the application calls
:c:func:`thread_analyzer_run` or :c:func:`thread_analyzer_print`.
For example, to build the synchronization sample with Thread Analyser enabled,
do the following:
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:app: samples/synchronization/
:board: qemu_x86
:goals: build
:gen-args: -DCONFIG_QEMU_ICOUNT=n -DCONFIG_THREAD_ANALYZER=y \
-DCONFIG_THREAD_ANALYZER_USE_PRINTK=y -DCONFIG_THREAD_ANALYZER_AUTO=y \
-DCONFIG_THREAD_ANALYZER_AUTO_INTERVAL=5
When you run the generated application in Qemu, you will get the additional
information from Thread Analyzer::

Configuration
*************
Configure this module using the following options.
* ``THREAD_ANALYZER``: enable the module.
* ``THREAD_ANALYZER_USE_PRINTK``: use printk for thread statistics.
* ``THREAD_ANALYZER_USE_LOG``: use the logger for thread statistics.
* ``THREAD_ANALYZER_AUTO``: run the thread analyzer automatically.
You do not need to add any code to the application when using this option.
* ``THREAD_ANALYZER_AUTO_INTERVAL``: the time for which the module sleeps
between consecutive printing of thread analysis in automatic mode.
* ``THREAD_ANALYZER_AUTO_STACK_SIZE``: the stack for thread analyzer
automatic thread.
* ``THREAD_NAME``: enable this option in the kernel to print the name of the
thread instead of its ID.
* ``THREAD_RUNTIME_STATS``: enable this option to print thread runtime data such
as utilization (This options is automatically selected by THREAD_ANALYZER).
