Zephyr 4.0.0
############
We are pleased to announce the release of Zephyr version 4.0.0.
Major enhancements with this release include:
* **Secure Storage Subsystem**:
A newly introduced :ref:`secure storage<secure_storage>` subsystem allows the use of the
PSA Secure Storage API and of persistent keys in the PSA Crypto API on *all* board targets. It
is now the standard way to provide device-specific protection to data at rest. (:github:`76222`)
* **ZMS (Zephyr Memory Storage) Subsystem**:
:ref:`ZMS <zms_api>` is a new key-value storage subsystem compatible with all non-volatile storage
types, including traditional NOR flash and advanced technologies like RRAM and MRAM that support
write without erasure.
* **Analog Comparators**:
A new :ref:`comparator<comparator_api>` device driver subsystem for analog comparators has been
added, complete with shell support. It supports initial configuration through Devicetree and
runtime configuration through vendor specific APIs. Initially the :dtcompatible:`nordic,nrf-comp`,
:dtcompatible:`nordic,nrf-lpcomp` and :dtcompatible:`nxp,kinetis-acmp` are supported.
* **Stepper Motors**:
It is now possible to interact with stepper motors using a standard API thanks to the new
:ref:`stepper<stepper_api>` device driver subsystem, which also comes with shell support.
Initially implemented drivers include a simple :dtcompatible:`zephyr,gpio-steppers` and a complex
sensor-less stall-detection capable with integrated ramp-controller :dtcompatible:`adi,tmc5041`.
* **Haptics**:
A new :ref:`haptics_api` device driver subsystem allows unified access to haptic controllers,
enabling users to add haptic feedback to their applications.
* **Multimedia Capabilities**
Zephyr's audio and video capabilities have been expanded with support for new image sensors, video
interfaces, audio interfaces, and codecs being supported.
* **Prometheus Library**:
A `Prometheus`_ metrics library has been added to the networking stack. It provides a way to
expose metrics to Prometheus clients over HTTP, facilitating the consolidated remote monitoring of
Zephyr devices alongside other systems typically monitored using Prometheus.
* **Documentation Improvements**:
Several enhancements were made to the online documentation to improve content discovery and
navigation. These include a new :ref:`interactive board catalog <boards>` and an interactive
directory for :zephyr:code-sample-category:`code samples <samples>`.
* **Expanded Board Support**:
Over 60 :ref:`new boards <boards_added_in_zephyr_4_0>` and
:ref:`shields <shields_added_in_zephyr_4_0>` are supported in Zephyr 4.0.

used for devices.
* Removed deprecated net_pkt functions.
Deprecated in this release
==========================
* Deprecated the :c:func:`net_buf_put` and :c:func:`net_buf_get` API functions in favor of
:c:func:`k_fifo_put` and :c:func:`k_fifo_get`.
* The :ref:`kscan_api` subsystem has been marked as deprecated.

Architectures
*************
* ARC
* ARM
* Added support of device memory attributes on Cortex-M (arm_mpu_v8)
* ARM64
* Added initial support for :c:func:`arch_stack_walk` that supports unwinding via esf only
* Added sys_arch_reboot() support to ARM64
* Added support for demand paging.
* Added support for Linkable Loadable Extensions (LLEXT).
* RISC-V
* The stack traces upon fatal exception now prints the address of stack pointer (sp) or frame
pointer (fp) depending on the build configuration.
* When :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_EXTRA_EXCEPTION_INFO` is enabled, the exception stack frame (arch_esf)
has an additional field ``csf`` that points to the callee-saved-registers upon an fatal error,
which can be accessed in :c:func:`k_sys_fatal_error_handler` by ``esf->csf``.
* For SoCs that select ``RISCV_SOC_HAS_ISR_STACKING``, the ``SOC_ISR_STACKING_ESF_DECLARE`` has to
include the ``csf`` member, otherwise the build would fail.
* Xtensa

:kconfig:option:`CONFIG_MCUMGR_TRANSPORT_LORAWAN`.
* hawkBit
* :c:func:`hawkbit_autohandler` now takes one argument. If the argument is set to true, the
autohandler will reshedule itself after running. If the argument is set to false, the
autohandler will not reshedule itself. Both variants are scheduled independent of each other.
The autohandler always runs in the system workqueue.
* Use the :c:func:`hawkbit_autohandler_wait` function to wait for the autohandler to finish.
* Running hawkBit from the shell is now executed in the system workqueue.
* Use the :c:func:`hawkbit_autohandler_cancel` function to cancel the autohandler.
* Use the :c:func:`hawkbit_autohandler_set_delay` function to delay the next run of the
autohandler.
* The hawkBit header file was separated into multiple header files. The main header file is now
``<zephyr/mgmt/hawkbit/hawkbit.h>``, the autohandler header file is now
``<zephyr/mgmt/hawkbit/autohandler.h>`` and the configuration header file is now
``<zephyr/mgmt/hawkbit/config.h>``.
* Power management

* https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls/releases/tag/mbedtls-3.6.2
* The Kconfig symbol :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_EXTERNAL_RNG_ALLOW_NON_CSPRNG`
was added to allow ``psa_get_random()`` to make use of non-cryptographically
secure random sources when :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_EXTERNAL_RNG`
is also enabled. This is only meant to be used for test purposes, not in production.
(:github:`76408`)
* The Kconfig symbol :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_MBEDTLS_TLS_VERSION_1_3` was added to
enable TLS 1.3 support from Mbed TLS. When this is enabled the following
new Kconfig symbols can also be enabled:

L1 ``kernel thread`` shell command as ``kernel thread list`` & ``kernel thread stacks``
* Added multiple shell command to configure the CPU mask affinity / pinning a thread in
runtime, do ``kernel thread -h`` for more info.
* ``kernel reboot`` shell command without any additional arguments will now do a cold reboot
instead of requiring you to type ``kernel reboot cold``.
* Storage

the requested erase range and possibly allowed erasing any page on a device (:github:`79800`).
* Shell: Fixed an issue were a failed file system mount attempt using the shell would make it
impossible to ever succeed in mounting that file system again until the device was reset (:github:`80024`).
* :ref:`ZMS<zms_api>`: Introduction of a new storage system that is designed to work with all types of
non-volatile storage technologies. It supports classical on-chip NOR flash as well as
new technologies like RRAM and MRAM that do not require a separate erase operation at all.

* ZBus
* JWT (JSON Web Token)
* The following new symbols were added to allow specifying both the signature
algorithm and crypto library:
