Add tick-based (i.e. precision resistant) inspection APIs for kernel
timeouts visible via k_timer, k_delayed work and thread timeouts
(i.e. pended/sleeping threads). These are each available in
"remaining" and "expires" variants returning time values relative to
current time and system start. All have system calls where applicable
(i.e. everywhere but k_delayed_work, which is not a userspace API)
The pre-existing millisecond "remaining_get()" predicates for timer
and delayed work remain, but are expressed in terms of the newer
calls.

Add a k_timeout_t type, and use it everywhere that kernel API
functions were accepting a millisecond timeout argument. Instead of
forcing milliseconds everywhere (which are often not integrally
representable as system ticks), do the conversion to ticks at the
point where the timeout is created. This avoids an extra unit
conversion in some application code, and allows us to express the
timeout in units other than milliseconds to achieve greater precision.
The existing K_MSEC() et. al. macros now return initializers for a
k_timeout_t.
The K_NO_WAIT and K_FOREVER constants have now become k_timeout_t
values, which means they cannot be operated on as integers.
Applications which have their own APIs that need to inspect these
vs. user-provided timeouts can now use a K_TIMEOUT_EQ() predicate to
test for equality.
Timer drivers, which receive an integer tick count in ther
z_clock_set_timeout() functions, now use the integer-valued
K_TICKS_FOREVER constant instead of K_FOREVER.
For the initial release, to preserve source compatibility, a
CONFIG_LEGACY_TIMEOUT_API kconfig is provided. When true, the
k_timeout_t will remain a compatible 32 bit value that will work with
any legacy Zephyr application.
Some subsystems present timeout (or timeout-like) values to their own
users as APIs that would re-use the kernel's own constants and
conventions. These will require some minor design work to adapt to
the new scheme (in most cases just using k_timeout_t directly in their
own API), and they have not been changed in this patch, instead
selecting CONFIG_LEGACY_TIMEOUT_API via kconfig. These subsystems
include: CAN Bus, the Microbit display driver, I2S, LoRa modem
drivers, the UART Async API, Video hardware drivers, the console
subsystem, and the network buffer abstraction.
k_sleep() now takes a k_timeout_t argument, with a k_msleep() variant
provided that works identically to the original API.
Most of the changes here are just type/configuration management and
documentation, but there are logic changes in mempool, where a loop
that used a timeout numerically has been reworked using a new
z_timeout_end_calc() predicate. Also in queue.c, a (when POLL was
enabled) a similar loop was needlessly used to try to retry the
k_poll() call after a spurious failure. But k_poll() does not fail
spuriously, so the loop was removed.

1. The bit operations in z_mark_thread_as_started() aren't atomic so
it needs to be protected.

On SMP, there is an inherent race when swapping: the old thread adds
itself back to the run queue before calling into the arch layer to do
the context switch. The former is properly synchronized under the
scheduler lock, and the later operates with interrupts locally
disabled. But until somewhere in the middle of arch_switch(), the old
thread (that is in the run queue!) does not have complete saved state
that can be restored.
So it's possible for another CPU to grab a thread before it is saved
and try to restore its unsaved register contents (which are garbage --
typically whatever state it had at the last interrupt).
Fix this by leveraging the "swapped_from" pointer already passed to
arch_switch() as a synchronization primitive. When the switch
implementation writes the new handle value, we know the switch is
complete. Then we can wait for that in z_swap() and at interrupt
exit.

Historically, these routines were placed in thread.c and would use the
scheduler via exported, synchronized functions (e.g. "remove from
ready queue"). But those steps were very fine grained, and there were
races where the thread could be seen by other contexts (in particular
under SMP) in an intermediate state. It's not completely clear to me
that any of these were fatal bugs, but it's very hard to prove they
weren't.
At best, this is fragile. Move the z_thread_single_suspend/abort()
functions into the scheduler and do the scheduler logic in a single
critical section.

When suspending a thread, cancel any pending timeouts which might wake
it up unexpectedly. Also, make suspending the current thread
(specifically) a schedule point, as callers are clearly going to
expect that to be synchronous.
Also fix a documentation weirdness. The phrasing in the earlier docs
for k_thread_suspend() was confusing: it could be interpreted as
either document the current (essentially buggy) behavior that threads
will "wake up" due to preexisting timeouts, OR to mean that thread
timeouts will continue to be tracked so that resuming a thread that
was sleeping will continue to sleep until the timeout (something that
has never been implemented: k_sleep() is implemented on top of
suspend). Rewrite to document what we actually implement.

This commit refactors kernel and arch headers to establish a boundary
between private and public interface headers.
The refactoring strategy used in this commit is detailed in the issue
This commit introduces the following major changes:
1. Establish a clear boundary between private and public headers by
removing "kernel/include" and "arch/*/include" from the global
include paths. Ideally, only kernel/ and arch/*/ source files should
reference the headers in these directories. If these headers must be
used by a component, these include paths shall be manually added to
the CMakeLists.txt file of the component. This is intended to
discourage applications from including private kernel and arch
headers either knowingly and unknowingly.
- kernel/include/ (PRIVATE)
This directory contains the private headers that provide private
kernel definitions which should not be visible outside the kernel
and arch source code. All public kernel definitions must be added
to an appropriate header located under include/.
- arch/*/include/ (PRIVATE)
This directory contains the private headers that provide private
architecture-specific definitions which should not be visible
outside the arch and kernel source code. All public architecture-
specific definitions must be added to an appropriate header located
under include/arch/*/.
- include/ AND include/sys/ (PUBLIC)
This directory contains the public headers that provide public
kernel definitions which can be referenced by both kernel and
application code.
- include/arch/*/ (PUBLIC)
This directory contains the public headers that provide public
architecture-specific definitions which can be referenced by both
kernel and application code.
2. Split arch_interface.h into "kernel-to-arch interface" and "public
arch interface" divisions.
- kernel/include/kernel_arch_interface.h
* provides private "kernel-to-arch interface" definition.
* includes arch/*/include/kernel_arch_func.h to ensure that the
interface function implementations are always available.
* includes sys/arch_interface.h so that public arch interface
definitions are automatically included when including this file.
- arch/*/include/kernel_arch_func.h
* provides architecture-specific "kernel-to-arch interface"
implementation.
* only the functions that will be used in kernel and arch source
files are defined here.
- include/sys/arch_interface.h
* provides "public arch interface" definition.
* includes include/arch/arch_inlines.h to ensure that the
architecture-specific public inline interface function
implementations are always available.
- include/arch/arch_inlines.h
* includes architecture-specific arch_inlines.h in
include/arch/*/arch_inline.h.
- include/arch/*/arch_inline.h
* provides architecture-specific "public arch interface" inline
function implementation.
* supersedes include/sys/arch_inline.h.
3. Refactor kernel and the existing architecture implementations.
- Remove circular dependency of kernel and arch headers. The
following general rules should be observed:
* Never include any private headers from public headers
* Never include kernel_internal.h in kernel_arch_data.h
* Always include kernel_arch_data.h from kernel_arch_func.h
* Never include kernel.h from kernel_struct.h either directly or
indirectly. Only add the kernel structures that must be referenced
from public arch headers in this file.
- Relocate syscall_handler.h to include/ so it can be used in the
public code. This is necessary because many user-mode public codes
reference the functions defined in this header.
- Relocate kernel_arch_thread.h to include/arch/*/thread.h. This is
necessary to provide architecture-specific thread definition for
'struct k_thread' in kernel.h.
- Remove any private header dependencies from public headers using
the following methods:
* If dependency is not required, simply omit
* If dependency is required,
- Relocate a portion of the required dependencies from the
private header to an appropriate public header OR
- Relocate the required private header to make it public.

System call arguments, at the arch layer, are single words. So
passing wider values requires splitting them into two registers at
call time. This gets even more complicated for values (e.g
k_timeout_t) that may have different sizes depending on configuration.
This patch adds a feature to gen_syscalls.py to detect functions with
wide arguments and automatically generates code to split/unsplit them.
Unfortunately the current scheme of Z_SYSCALL_DECLARE_* macros won't
work with functions like this, because for N arguments (our current
maximum N is 10) there are 2^N possible configurations of argument
widths. So this generates the complete functions for each handler and
wrapper, effectively doing in python what was originally done in the
preprocessor.
Another complexity is that traditional the z_hdlr_*() function for a
system call has taken the raw list of word arguments, which does not
work when some of those arguments must be 64 bit types. So instead of
using a single Z_SYSCALL_HANDLER macro, this splits the job of
z_hdlr_*() into two steps: An automatically-generated unmarshalling
function, z_mrsh_*(), which then calls a user-supplied verification
function z_vrfy_*(). The verification function is typesafe, and is a
simple C function with exactly the same argument and return signature
as the syscall impl function. It is also not responsible for
validating the pointers to the extra parameter array or a wide return
value, that code gets automatically generated.
This commit includes new vrfy/msrh handling for all syscalls invoked
during CI runs. Future commits will port the less testable code.

This mechanism had multiple problems:
- Missing parameter documentation strings.
- Multiple calls to k_thread_name_set() from user
mode would leak memory, since the copied string was never
freed
- k_thread_name_get() returns memory to user mode
with no guarantees on whether user mode can actually
read it; in the case where the string was in thread
resource pool memory (which happens when k_thread_name_set()
is called from user mode) it would never be readable.
- There was no test case coverage for these functions
from user mode.
To properly fix this, thread objects now have a buffer region
reserved specifically for the thread name. Setting the thread
name copies the string into the buffer. Getting the thread name
with k_thread_name_get() still returns a pointer, but the
system call has been removed. A new API k_thread_name_copy()
is introduced to copy the thread name into a destination buffer,
and a system call has been provided for that instead.
We now have full test case coverge for these APIs in both user
and supervisor mode.
Some of the code has been cleaned up to place system call
handler functions in proximity with their implementations.

Currently thread abort doesn't work if a thread is currently scheduled
on a different CPU, because we have no way of delivering an interrupt
to the other CPU to force the issue. This patch adds a simple
framework for an architecture to provide such an IPI, implements it
for x86_64, and uses it to implement a spin loop in abort for the case
where a thread is currently scheduled elsewhere.
On SMP architectures (xtensa) where no such IPI is implemented, we
fall back to waiting on an arbitrary interrupt to occur. This "works"
for typical code (and all current tests), but of course it cannot be
guaranteed on such an architecture that k_thread_abort() will return
in finite time (e.g. the other thread on the other CPU might have
taken a spinlock and entered an infinite loop, so it will never
receive an interrupt to terminate itself)!
On non-SMP architectures this patch changes no code paths at all.

Straightforward spinlock around the global thread state. Two changes
to the locking strategy were needed:
1. There was a needless recursive lock taken in schedule_new_thread().
This is only ever invoked in circumstances where the lock was already
held, or where there is no need for internal synchronization.
2. The recursive irq_lock() around the loop that spawns the initial
static threads (which happens at the start of main thread execution)
was removed. Most of the job (i.e. making sure the threads don't run
before the loop is finished) was already duplicated by the sched_lock
it was already taking, and the attempt to promise that all the
timeouts happen on the same tick is already true by construction at
system startup on uniprocessor systems, and not possible to guarantee
at all under SMP (where other CPUs can take that timer interrupt). We
don't document or test for this feature, so don't try to be fancy.

Just like with _Swap(), we need two variants of these utilities which
can atomically release a lock and context switch. The naming shifts
(for byte count reasons) to _reschedule/_pend_curr, and both have an
_irqlock variant which takes the traditional locking.
Just refactoring. No logic changes.

The validation checking recently added to spinlocks is useful, but
requires kernel-internals like _current and _current_cpu in a header
context that tends to be needed before those are declared (or where we
don't want them declared), and is causing big header dependency
headaches.
Move it to C code, it's just a validation tool, not a performance
thing.

This adds a simple implementation of SMP CPU affinity to Zephyr. The
API is simple and doesn't try to invent abstractions like "cpu sets".
Each thread has an enable/disable flag associated with each CPU in the
system, and the bits can be turned on and off (for threads that are
not currently runnable, of course) using an easy three-function API.
Because the implementation picked requires enumerating runnable
threads in priority order looking for one that match the current CPU,
this is not a good fit for the SCALABLE or MULTIQ scheduler backends,
so it currently can be enabled only for SCHED_DUMB (which is the
default anyway). Fancier algorithms do exist, but even the best of
them scale as O(N_CPUS), so aren't quite constant time and often
require significant memory overhead to keep separate lists for
different cpus/sets.
The intended use here is for apps that want to "pin" threads to
specific CPUs for latency control, or conversely to prevent certain
threads from taking time on specific CPUs to leave them free for fast
response.

This API was using variable number of arguments. Which is not
allowed according to misra c guidelines(Rule 17.1). Hence making
this API into a macro and using the util macro FOR_EACH_FIXED_ARG
to get the same functionality.
There is one deviation from the old function. The last argument
shouldn't be NULL.

This feature was a useless noop based on mistaken API understanding.
The idea seems to have been that k_busy_wait() included guards to
ensure "clock_always_on" was true duing the loop, presumably because
the original author was afraid that "turning the clock off" would
affect the operation of k_cycle_get_32().
Then later someone came around and "optimized" this for Quark SE,
where the cycle counter is the RTC and unrelated to the timer driver
used by the clock_always_on feature. (Except even there it presumably
should have been done at the SoC level and not just in the C1000
devboard -- note that Arduino 101 never would have gotten this).
But it was all a mistake: "clock_always_on" has nothing to do with
en/disabling the system cycle timer (which never happens when the
system is active, that's a feature of idle), it's a control over the
delivery of timer interrupts. And needless to say we don't care about
timer interrupts when we're spinning on a cycle counter.
Yank the whole mess.

The existing API defined sys_clock_{hw_cycles,ticks}_per_sec as simple
"variables" to be shared, except that they were only real storage in
certain modes (the HPET driver, basically) and everywhere else they
were a build constant.
Properly, these should be an API defined by the timer driver (who
controls those rates) and consumed by the clock subsystem. So give
them function syntax as a stepping stone to get there.
Note that this also removes the deprecated variable
_sys_clock_us_per_tick rather than give it the same treatment.

This enables reserving little space on the top of stack to store
data local to thread when CONFIG_USERSPACE. The first customer
of this is errno.
Note that ARC, due to how it lays out the user stack and
privilege stack, sets the pointer itself rather than
relying on the common way.

The errno "variable" is required to be thread-specific.
It gets defined to a macro which dereferences a pointer
returned by a kernel function.
In user mode, we cannot simply read/write the thread struct.
We do not have thread-local storage mechanism, so for now
use the lowest address of the thread stack to store this
value, since this is guaranteed to be read/writable by
a user thread.
The downside of this approach is potential stack corruption
if the stack pointer goes down this far but does not exceed
the location, since a fault won't be generated in this case.

Signed-off-by: Ramakrishna Pallala <ramakrishna.pallala@intel.com>
The original implementation of CONFIG_THREAD_MONITOR would
try to leverage a thread's initial stack layout to provide
the entry function with arguments for any given thread.
This is problematic:
- Some arches do not have a initial stack layout suitable for
this
- Some arches never enabled this at all (riscv32, nios2)
- Some arches did not enable this properly
- Dropping to user mode would erase or provide incorrect
information.
Just spend a few extra bytes to store this stuff directly
in the k_thread struct and get rid of all the arch-specific
code for this.
