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.

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.

Also note that, when using llvm/clang, crt{begin,end}S.o are

This adds a new linker property specifically for passing
"-no-pie" to linker. Older binutils' LD (<= 2.36) do not
support this flag and will behave erratically if set. It
would parse "-no-pie" separately as "-n" and "-o-pie",
which would result in the output file being "-pie"
instead of "zephyr*.elf". Moreover, LLVM lld does not
support -no-pie but --no-pie (note the extra hyphen).
By having no-pie as a linker property, we can pass
correct no-pie flag to these linkers (or none at all).

The only way to override its 'cc' default when cross-compiling with

This had bitrotten a bit, and didn't build as shipped. Current
libasan implementations want -fsanitize=address passed as a linker
argument too. We have grown a "lld" linker variant that needs the
same cmake treatment as the "ld" binutils one, but never got it. But
the various flags had been cut/pasted around to different places, with
slightly different forms. That's really sort of a mess, as sanitizer
support was only ever support with host toolchains for native_posix
(and AFAICT no one anywhere has made this work on cross compilers in
an embedded environment). And the separate "gcc" vs. "llvm" layers
were silly, as there has only ever been one API for this feature (from
LLVM, then picked up compatibly by gcc).
Pull this stuff out and just do it in one place in the posix arch for
simplicity.
Also recent sanitizers are trying to add instrumentation padding
around data that we use linker trickery to pack tightly
(c.f. SYS_INIT, STRUCT_SECTION_ITERABLE) and we need a way
("__noasan") to turn that off. Actually for gcc, it was enough to
just make the records const (already true for most of them, except a
native_posix init struct), but clang apparently isn't smart enough.
Finally, add an ASAN_RECOVER kconfig that enables the use of
"halt_on_error=0" in $ASAN_OPTIONS, which continues execution past the
first error.

Zeroing the BSS and copying data to RAM with regular memset/memcpy may
cause problems when those functions are assuming a fully initialized
system for their optimizations to work e.g. some instructions require
an active MMU, but turning the MMU on needs the .bss section to be
cleared first, etc.
Commit c5b898743a ("aarch64: Fix alignment fault on z_bss_zero()")
provides a detailed explanation of such a case.
Replacing z_bss_zero() with an architecture specific one is problematic
as the former may see new sections added to it that would be missed by
the later. The same reasoning goes for z_data_copy().
Let's make maintenance much easier by providing weak versions of
memset/memcpy that can be overridden by architecture-specific safe
versions when needed.

To prepare for linker script creation with flexible number of linker
passes depending on system configuration then the Zephyr CMake linker
script generator has been updated to use pass names instead of pass
numbers.
This allows greater flexibility as a section can now be active based on
the settings on the pass and not the linking pass index number.
As part of this, the `PASS` processing in `linker_script_common.cmake`
has been adjusted so that it properly handles when a linking pass is
handling multiple settings, such as both `LINKER_APP_SMEM_UNALIGNED`
and `DEVICE_HANDLES_PASS1` in same linking pass.
As the number of linking passes are more flexible, then the PASS
argument in `zephyr_linker_section()` and
`zephyr_linker_section_configure()` has been updated to also support
a `NOT <name>` argument, for example: `PASS NOT LINKER_ZEPHYR_FINAL`.

Currently all calls to `configure_linker_script()` specifies `-D<name>`
when calling `configure_linker_script()`.
This works well for the gcc pre-processed ld linker script templates,
but Zephyr also supports a CMake linker script generator which can be
used for ld scripts and armlink scatter files.
In this case, a `-D` must be stripped.
This commit changes this so that Zephyr CMake build system calls
`configure_linker_script()` without `-D`.
Thus the `LINKER_SCRIPT` choice can decide how this information should
be passed to underlying linker script functionality, that is `-D` for
linker script template and CMake variable for the CMake linker script
generator.

The current gen_handles.py script uses linker defined symbols.
As preparation for support of more linkers the gen_tables.py now takes
the device start symbol as argument.
For example, armlink and ld uses different symbols.
With ld those can be named explicitly, but for armlink the linker
decides the names.
For ld, Zephyr defines: __device_start
For armlink, the symbol is defined as: Image$$<section name>$$Base
Therefore knowledge of the linker symbol to be used must be passed to
gen_handles.py so that the correct symbol can be used for locating
devices.
To support this change, the creation of the asm, compiler, compiler-cpp,
linker targets has been moved from target_toolchain_flags.cmake to
target_toolchain.cmake.

device_start_symbol on the linker target.
