Daniel Leung 2acafafae1 kernel: pipes: rename inner spinlock keys
MISRA-C Rule 5.3 states that identifiers in inner scope should
not hide identifiers in outer scope. There are a few spinlock
keys simply named "key". So rename those in inner scope to avoid
shadowing the outer ones.

Peter Bigot aea9d35c4e kernel: fix runtime initialization of k_pipe object
Runtime initialization failed to reset the lock field, causing
problems when the pipe object is located on a stack and passed by
reference to other code.  Lacking an API for initializing a spinlock
by itself use the idiom from _K_PIPE_INITIALIZER().

To simplify maintainability the initialization order is changed
slightly to match the structure field declaration order.

Andy Ross 7832738ae9 kernel/timeout: Make timeout arguments an opaque type
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.

Stephanos Ioannidis 2d7460482d headers: Refactor kernel and arch headers.
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.

This commit supersedes #20047, addresses #19666, and fixes #3056.

Andy Ross 6c283ca3d0 kernel/thread: Must always initialize is_idle field
Our thread struct gets initialized piecewise in a bunch of locations
(this is sort of a design flaw).  The is_idle field, which was
introduced to identify idle threads in SMP (where there can be more
than one), was correctly set for idle threads but was being left
uninitialized elsewhere, and in a tiny handful of cases was turning up
nonzero.

The case in pipes. was particularly vexsome, as that isn't a thread at
all but one of the "dummy" threads used for timeouts (another design
flaw IMHO).

Get this right everywhere.

Andy Ross 6564974bae userspace: Support for split 64 bit arguments
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.

Nicolas Pitre 3d51f7c266 k_stack: make it 64-bit compatible
The k_stack data type cannot be u32_t on a 64-bit system as it is
often used to store pointers. Let's define a dedicated type for stack
data values, namely stack_data_t, which can be adjusted accordingly.
For now it is defined to uintptr_t which is the integer type large
enough to hold a pointer, meaning it is equivalent to u32_t on 32-bit
systems and u64_t on 64-bit systems.

If k_pipe_block_put() is called and the pipe does not have enough

thus the scheduler will read bad memory. After fixing this,

  arbitrary numbers of threads and priority levels.  This is
  controlled via the CONFIG_SCHED_DUMB kconfig variable.

Andy Ross ccf3bf7ed3 kernel: Fix sloppy wait queue API
There were multiple spots where code was using the _wait_q_t
abstraction as a synonym for a dlist and doing direct list management
on them with the dlist APIs.  Refactor _wait_q_t into a proper opaque
struct (not a typedef for sys_dlist_t) and write a simple wrapper API
for the existing usages.  Now replacement of wait_q with a different
data structure is much cleaner.

Note that there were some SYS_DLIST_FOR_EACH_SAFE loops in mailbox.c
that got replaced by the normal/non-safe macro.  While these loops do
mutate the list in the code body, they always do an early return in
those circumstances instead of returning into the macro'd for() loop,
so the _SAFE usage was needless.

Andrew Boie 8345e5ebf0 syscalls: remove policy from handler checks
The various macros to do checks in system call handlers all
implictly would generate a kernel oops if a check failed.
This is undesirable for a few reasons:

* System call handlers that acquire resources in the handler
  have no good recourse for cleanup if a check fails.
* In some cases we may want to propagate a return value back
  to the caller instead of just killing the calling thread,
  even though the base API doesn't do these checks.

These macros now all return a value, if nonzero is returned
the check failed. K_OOPS() now wraps these calls to generate
a kernel oops.

At the moment, the policy for all APIs has not changed. They
still all oops upon a failed check/

The macros now use the Z_ notation for private APIs.

There was a somewhat promiscuous pattern in the kernel where IPC
mechanisms would do something that might effect the current thread
choice, then check _must_switch_threads() (or occasionally
__must_switch_threads -- don't ask, the distinction is being replaced
by real English words), sometimes _is_in_isr() (but not always, even
in contexts where that looks like it would be a mistake), and then
call _Swap() if everything is OK, otherwise releasing the irq_lock().
Sometimes this was done directly, sometimes via the inverted test,
sometimes (poll, heh) by doing the test when the thread state was
modified and then needlessly passing the result up the call stack to
the point of the _Swap().

And some places were just calling _reschedule_threads(), which did all
this already.

Unify all this madness.  The old _reschedule_threads() function has
split into two variants: _reschedule_yield() and
_reschedule_noyield().  The latter is the "normal" one that respects
the cooperative priority of the current thread (i.e. it won't switch
out even if there is a higher priority thread ready -- the current
thread has to pend itself first), the former is used in the handful of
places where code was doing a swap unconditionally, just to preserve
precise behavior across the refactor.  I'm not at all convinced it
should exist...

Leandro Pereira a1ae8453f7 kernel: Name of static functions should not begin with an underscore
Names that begin with an underscore are reserved by the C standard.
This patch does not change names of functions defined and implemented
in header files.

Andy Ross 9c62cc677d kernel: Add kswap.h header to unbreak cycles
The xtensa-asm2 work included a patch that added nano_internal.h
includes in lots of places that needed to have _Swap defined, because
it had to break a cycle and this no longer got pulled in from the arch
headers.

Unfortunately those new includes created new and more amusing cycles
elsewhere which led to breakage on other platforms.

Break out the _Swap definition (only) into a separate header and use
that instead.  Cleaner.  Seems not to have any more hidden gotchas.

Andy Ross 32a444c54e kernel: Fix nano_internal.h inclusion
_Swap() is defined in nano_internal.h.  Everything calls _Swap().
Pretty much nothing that called _Swap() included nano_internal.h,
expecting it to be picked up automatically through other headers (as
it happened, from the kernel arch-specific include file).  A new
_Swap() is going to need some other symbols in the inline definition,
so I needed to break that cycle.  Now nothing sees _Swap() defined
anymore.  Put nano_internal.h everywhere it's needed.

Our kernel includes remain a big awful yucky mess.  This makes things
more correct but no less ugly.  Needs cleanup.

Leandro Pereira 6f99bdb02a kernel: Provide only one _SYSCALL_HANDLER() macro
Use some preprocessor trickery to automatically deduce the amount of
arguments for the various _SYSCALL_HANDLERn() macros.  Makes the grunt
work of converting a bunch of kernel APIs to system calls slightly
easier.

Andrew Boie 225e4c0e76 kernel: greatly simplify syscall handlers
We now have macros which should significantly reduce the amount of
boilerplate involved with defining system call handlers.

- Macros which define the proper prototype based on number of arguments
- "SIMPLE" variants which create handlers that don't need anything
  other than object verification

Andrew Boie 945af95f42 kernel: introduce object validation mechanism
All system calls made from userspace which involve pointers to kernel
objects (including device drivers) will need to have those pointers
validated; userspace should never be able to crash the kernel by passing
it garbage.

The actual validation with _k_object_validate() will be in the system
call receiver code, which doesn't exist yet.

- CONFIG_USERSPACE introduced. We are somewhat far away from having an
  end-to-end implementation, but at least need a Kconfig symbol to
  guard the incoming code with. Formal documentation doesn't exist yet
  either, but will appear later down the road once the implementation is
  mostly finalized.

- In the memory region for RAM, the data section has been moved last,
  past bss and noinit. This ensures that inserting generated tables
  with addresses of kernel objects does not change the addresses of
  those objects (which would make the table invalid)

- The DWARF debug information in the generated ELF binary is parsed to
  fetch the locations of all kernel objects and pass this to gperf to
  create a perfect hash table of their memory addresses.

- The generated gperf code doesn't know that we are exclusively working
  with memory addresses and uses memory inefficently. A post-processing
  script process_gperf.py adjusts the generated code before it is
  compiled to work with pointer values directly and not strings
  containing them.

- _k_object_init() calls inserted into the init functions for the set of
  kernel object types we are going to support so far
