2d64237f44 cmake: Enable undefined behavior sanitizer on all targets
GCC and Clang support the undefined behavior sanitizer in any
configuration, the only restriction is that if you want to get nice
messages printed, then you need the ubsan library routines which are only
present for posix architecture or when using picolibc.

This patch adds three new compiler properties:

 * sanitizer_undefined. Enables the undefined behavior sanitizer.
 * sanitizer_undefined_library. Calls ubsan library routines on fault.
 * sanitizer_undefined_trap. Invokes __builtin_trap() on fault.

Overhead for using the trapping sanitizer is fairly low and should be
considered for use in CI once all of the undefined behavior faults in
Zephyr are fixed.

fe0b16583c cmake: linker generator: ld: Files for section input patterns
For CONFIG_USERSPACE the input from gen_app_partitions.py there is
a need to be able to specify input files as well as input sections
patterns for zephyr_linker_section_configure().  This is used for
app partitions from libraries (which generate input patterns like
foo.a:*(.data*)).

This adds documentation to zephyr_linker_section_configure() to clarify
what INPUT allows, and also adds some parsing tricks to ld_script.cmake
to properly add the file patterns when they are missing.

128698fd36 cmake: userspace: A stab at USERSPACE + CMAKE_LINKER_GENERATOR
All in all this makes cmake linker generator able to work for at least
most of the kernel tests and samples, on cortex m4.

Make the cmake linker generator have a file-structure more similar to
the ld-skeletons.

Add or edit groups, sections and logic to make the generator reflect
what the ld-skeletons do, esp. for kobjects and APP_SMEM, nonint and
some other details are also effected.

Use the new zephyr_linker_include_generated() and
zephyr_linker_include_var() functions to to handle
${DEVICE_API_LINKER_SECTIONS_CMAKE}, the kobject-prebuilt-*.h files and
APP_SMEM partition. Essentially the output from gen_app_partitions.py,
gen_kobject_placeholders.py.

Add ALIGN_WITH_INPUT on sections being put into DATA_REGION. This makes
the init layout work for ld.

This leverages the updates in gen_app_partitions.py to generate its
output as cmake linker generator sections too, and puts them into a
group defined in linker.cmake

Setup generator variables for alignment of APP_SMEM. Note that this does
not yet handle MPU_ALIGN which depends on the size of the section...

6f74d6fa90 cmake: linker generator: Functions for input from prev linker pass
Add methods for the linker-script generator to pick up information
from previus linkerpasses:
 * zephyr_linker_include_generated(FILE f.cmake [PASS X]  [KCONFIG])
   cmake-includes f.cmake in the relevant PASSes. This allows scripts
   to generate any content (e.g. sections or section configs) as if
   it was generated by the main cmake machiery. This is intended to
   cover the case of ld-script snippets generated by e.g.
   gen_app_partitions.py
   It can also parse KCconfig files to capture @CONFIG_FOO@ variables
 * @FOO[,undef:v]@ in an value or expression in the zephyr_linker_*
   inputs. This looks for a defintion of FOO (se below), and uses its
   value if found. If FOO is not defined, the whole @@ thing is left
   untouched, unless ,undef: is used, in which case v is used instead.
 * zephyr_linker_include_generated(FILE f.h [PASS x]) greps for f.h
   for #define FOO value to be accessed as @FOO@
 * zephyr_linker_include_var(VAR FOO VALUE V) allows the main
   cmake-script to set a @FOO@ variable.

Note that the #define support is VERY basic, and does not use a proper
pre-processor. It works for the current use of files generated by e.g.
gen_kobject_placeholders.py but is not a general solution.

it isn't duplicated on the link line (and specifying it multiple times

-fuse-ld isn't baremetal-specific and setting it via TOOLCHAIN_LD_FLAGS
will cover this case anyway, so remove this duplicate.

0ea212918f cmake: extensions: use INTERFACE_SOURCES as property for code relocation
In order to enable code relocation, we use a custom target
(code_data_relocation_target), and add files we wish to relocate, as
well as which sections should be relocated to the COMPILE_DEFINITIONS
property for the target.

This approach has been fragile, because COMPILE_DEFINITIONS can also be
added to for all targets using `add_definitions`. This means if another
part of the project uses `add_definitions` and
CONFIG_CODE_DATA_RELOCATION is on, a warning will appear about the
"file" not being found. The "file" of course, is just the definition
added by `add_definitions`.

To work around this, switch to overloading the INTERFACE_SOURCES
property. This property should be a bit more robust, because nobody else
will add sources to the code_data_relocation_target.

However, this approach has the downside that the CMake documentation
pstates targets created with `add_custom_target()` (which the
code_data_relocation_target is) do not have an INTERFACE scope for
their sources- so while this approach works, it is not officially
supported by CMake

2e3873adde cmake: improve Zephyr link phase
Zephyr is a bare metal build where standard libs are disabled.

This means that c and runtime libraries must manually be linked in.

This has generally been handled by using CMake's link libraries handling
but the issue with that is both de-duplication but also library link
order.

Standard libraries must be linked at last location to ensure symbols
are always available, however this is not optimal with
target_link_libraries() because this would ultimately require every
library to know the c library to link with, which is not desired.

Therefore, setup standard C and runtime library linking in linker
CMake files for toolchains where this is required.

This commit expands the principle introduced with toolchain abstraction,
see PR#24851.

This means that a toolchain implementation may specify standard C,
runtime, C++, etc libraries, as well as their link order.
Because a property approach is used, then Zephyr modules, such as the
Picolibc module can adjust such properties.

An optional `zephyr_linker_finalize()` macro is called at the end of
Zephyr's CMakeList process and can be used by the toolchain
implementation to define the final linker invocation.

This aligns the linker handling flow to the principle introduced in
PR#24851 and improves the flexibility and robustness of Zephyr build
system.

9fe6c5e3fb cmake: linker: Use the same linker for cmake checks and final build
Currently, the linker that is used when performing various cmake checks
(check_c_compiler_flag, for example) may be different than the linker that
will be used during the actual build. This happens as we currently specify
'-fuse-ld' to force the appropriate linker a) after many such checks have
already happened and b) in a way which is not automatically propagated to
check_c_compiler_flag (and friends). As a result, the toolchain's default
linker will generally be used for such checks regardless of which linker
was selected in Zephyr.

This can lead to a number of surprises when building Zephyr, particularly
when building with clang. For example:

- If the linker is misconfigured, where the build will fail can vary
  depending on whether the linker is the toolchain's default. When the
  configured linker happens to be the toolchain's default, the build
  (helpfully) fails quickly on the checks for a basic working toochain.
  When the configured linker isn't the default, the build won't fail until
  the final link steps.
- The build can fail due to issues with a linker other than the one
  configured by the user in Zephyr. For example, LLVM toolchains without
  lld will generally fail to build Zephyr (the checks for a basic
  working toochain will fail) for targets where lld is the default in LLVM
  even if GNU ld is configured in Zephyr and would otherwise be used in the
  final build.
- Flags which are only added if check_c_compiler_flag (or similar) succeeds
  may be unexpectedly omitted during the final build if the flag is
  supported in the configured linker but is unsupported in the toolchain's
  default linker (as check_c_compiler_flag will test using the default
  one).

Note that this isn't limited to clang--even when we are building with
Zephyr's SDK and force ld.bfd, we seem to use the 'ld' variant during the
cmake checks (though this generally seems fairly harmless compared to
mixing ld/lld or other proprietary linkers).

To fix this, ensure the appropriate 'fuse-ld' is set early enough and in
such a way that the same linker will be used throughout the entire build.

9a9e252d16 cmake: linker: move toolchain_ld_<base|cpp> to linker flag property
Transition the linker flag for the toolchain_ld_base and
toolchain_ld_cpp macros to linker flag properties.
This work follows the toolchain abstraction started in PR#24851.

toolchain_ld_base() was intended for base linker flags, but has slowly
become a 'set-any-linker-flag-here' and thus having several
`if(<check>)` or `<func>_ifdef(<check> ...)`.

Move the check to the top-level Zephyr CMakeLists.txt file, so that it
becomes cleaner which part is responsible for setting a value, and then
move the actual value (the linker flag) definition to the linker flag
property location.

It also helps adding support for new linkers, as it becomes clearer
which linker flags Zephyr always expects, for example `base` and
`cpp_base`, as well as those settings which are targeting for a given
purpose, such as linker sort alignment.

It also makes it clearer when those are used, for example in top-level
CMakeLists.txt with CONFIG_LINKER_SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT compared to this
information being buried in a linker support macro.

9bb0140522 cmake: remove the use of PROPERTY_LINKER_SCRIPT_DEFINES
The support of PROPERTY_LINKER_SCRIPT_DEFINES has been broken since
the transition to CMake in 12f8f76165.

The intention was probably to allow users / projects to adjust
PROPERTY_LINKER_SCRIPT_DEFINES by setting a CMake cache variable.

The implementation tests for the CMake variable (local scope or cache)
PROPERTY_LINKER_SCRIPT_DEFINES, but it never uses such CMake variable.

Instead it uses a CMake global property named
PROPERTY_LINKER_SCRIPT_DEFINES. CMake variables and CMake global
properties are two very different things, and therefore the current
implementation has never worked. The fact that no one has never noticed
this flaw, means that the feature has never been used as intended.

Simplify the code by removing the use of the global CMake property and
instead set the value of the property on the linker script
pre-processing invocation.

321e395a8f linker: Include libkernel.a in the whole-archive when llext is enabled
Differently from other libraries, which are included whole in the final
Zephyr ELF, libkernel.a itself isn't. Assuming this is intended to
enable optimisations (if it isn't, this patch will break things) - linker
can remove parts of the kernel that are not used by the application.

However, when considering Linkable Loadable Extensions (llext), this
optimisations can be counterproductive: for instance, syscalls that are
not used by the application won't be available for extensions. It won't
matter if someone "EXPORT_SYMBOL" for them, or even try to keep them
using LINKER_KEEP, they'll be gone.

To avoid that, this patches includes, when CONFIG_LLEXT=y, libkernel.a
inside the linker "whole-archive" block. This ends up making it consider
libkernel.a as a library whose all symbols should be kept. Note this
doesn't mean that all symbols will be there - things compiled out via
Kconfig will naturally still be out.

9fc9eb5ddb cmake: Set memusage property for lld
lld gained support for the --print-memory-usage flag somewhat recently
(May 2023). Associate this flag with the memusage property when building
with lld, similar to what is done for GNU ld.

0b7fb57d09 cmake: code_relocation: Re-run when relocation_dict.txt changes
Fix an issue where updating a `zephyr_code_relocate()` call in CMake
didn't trigger regeneration of `code_relocation.c` and linker scripts.
The generation command was missing a dependency on the aforementioned
input text file, where the outcome of each call is cached.

26b649ea53 cmake: update board and soc linker script handling
This commit updates the handling of board and SoC linker scripts.

Several SoCs creates a linker.ld file which sole purpose is to include
another arch common linker script, often with content like this:

    #include <arch>/linker.ld

instead of 100+ SoC specific linker.ld files containing just a single
include line of above structure, then this commit introduces two now
CMake variables, BOARD_LINKER_SCRIPT and SOC_LINKER_SCRIPT.

This allows the board and SoC CMake code to point directly to a common
linker script instead of creating a dummy linker.ld file doing this.

This removes the need for several dummy linker.ld file.

026dbdf539 cmake: LLVM LLD minimum version 14.0.0
Fixes: #35671

Add minimal version required for LLVM LLD linker.
Linking fails with older LLVM LLD, such as v10.0.0.

LLVM v14.0.0 was released in 2022, and latest LLVM is v17.0.1.
Zephyr currently doesn't have a strict minimum version of LLVM
specified, but based on LLVM development and known issues on older
releases, then a minimum version of v14.0.0 has been chosen in this
commit.

73605f1ee8 cmake: armlink: update CMake library to arch__arm__core__cortex_m
Fixes: #62589
Follow-up: #60031

The PR #60031 moved CMake code to new folder location causing generated
library names to change.
This change impacted the use of those libraries in the Zephyr armlink
CMake code, causing CMake failures at configure time.

This PR fixes this failure by updating the armlink CMake code to use
the new library names.
