The original idea of using a custom switch to main thread
function is to make sure the buffer to save floating point
registers are aligned correctly or else exception would be
raised when saving/restoring those registers. Since
the struct of the buffer is defined with alignment hint
to toolchain, the alignment will be enforced by toolchain
as long as the k_thread struct variable is a dedicated,
declared variable. So there is no need for the custom
switch to main thread function anymore.
This also allows the stack usage calculation of
the interrupt stack to function properly as the end of
the interrupt stack is not being used for the dummy
thread anymore.

This change adds full shared floating point support for the SPARC
architecture.
All SPARC floating point registers are scratch registers with respect
to function call boundaries. That means we only have to save floating
point registers when switching threads in ISR. The registers are
stored to the corresponding thread stack.
FPU is disabled when calling ISR. Any attempt to use FPU in ISR
will generate the fp_disabled trap which causes Zephyr fatal error.
- This commit adds no new thread state.
- All FPU contest save/restore is synchronous and lazy FPU context
switch is not implemented.

SPARC is an open and royalty free processor architecture.
This commit provides SPARC architecture support to Zephyr. It is
compatible with the SPARC V8 specification and the SPARC ABI and is
independent of processor implementation.
Functionality specific to SPRAC processor implementations should
go in soc/sparc. One example is the LEON3 SOC which is part of this
patch set.
The architecture port is fully SPARC ABI compatible, including trap
handlers and interrupt context.
Number of implemented register windows can be configured.
Some SPARC V8 processors borrow the CASA (compare-and-swap) atomic
instructions from SPARC V9. An option has been defined in the
architecture port to forward the corresponding code-generation option
to the compiler.
Stack size related config options have been defined in sparc/Kconfig
to match the SPARC ABI.

Some platforms may have multiple RAM regions which are
dis-continuous in the physical memory map. We really want
these to be in a continuous virtual region, and we need to
stop assuming that there is just one SRAM region that is
identity-mapped.
We no longer use CONFIG_SRAM_BASE_ADDRESS and CONFIG_SRAM_SIZE
as the bounds of kernel RAM, and no longer assume in the core
kernel that these are identity mapped at boot.
Two new Kconfigs, CONFIG_KERNEL_VM_BASE and
CONFIG_KERNEL_RAM_SIZE now indicate the bounds of this region
in virtual memory.
We are currently only memory-mapping physical device driver
MMIO regions so we do not need virtual-to-physical calculations
to re-map RAM yet. When the time comes an architecture interface
will be defined for this.
Platforms which just have one RAM region may continue to
identity-map it.

We provide an option for low-memory systems to use a single set
of page tables for all threads. This is only supported if
KPTI and SMP are disabled. This configuration saves a considerable
amount of RAM, especially if multiple memory domains are used,
at a cost of context switching overhead.
Some caching techniques are used to reduce the amount of context
switch updates; the page tables aren't updated if switching to
a supervisor thread, and the page table configuration of the last
user thread switched in is cached.

- Page tables are now associated with memory domains,
instead of having separate page tables per thread.
A spinlock protects write access to these page tables,

copying page tables from the boot page tables.

Zephyr SMP kernels need to be able to run on architectures with
incoherent caches. Naive implementation of synchronization on such
architectures requires extensive cache flushing (e.g. flush+invalidate
everything on every spin lock operation, flush on every unlock!) and
is a performance problem.
Instead, many of these systems will have access to separate "coherent"
(usually uncached) and "incoherent" regions of memory. Where this is
available, place all writable data sections by default into the
coherent region. An "__incoherent" attribute flag is defined for data
regions that are known to be CPU-local and which should use the cache.
By default, this is used for stack memory.
Stack memory will be incoherent by default, as by definition it is
local to its current thread. This requires special cache management
on context switch, so an arch API has been added for that.
Also, when enabled, add assertions to strategic places to ensure that
shared kernel data is indeed coherent. We check thread objects, the
_kernel struct, waitq's, timeouts and spinlocks. In practice almost
all kernel synchronization is built on top of these structures, and
any shared data structs will contain at least one of them.

We no longer plan to support a split address space with
the kernel in high memory and per-process address spaces.
Because of this, we can simplify some things. System RAM
is now always identity mapped at boot.
We no longer require any virtual-to-physical translation
for page tables, and can remove the dual-mapping logic
from the page table generation script since we won't need
to transition the instruction point off of physical
addresses.
CONFIG_KERNEL_VM_BASE and CONFIG_KERNEL_VM_LIMIT
have been removed. The kernel's address space always
starts at CONFIG_SRAM_BASE_ADDRESS, of a fixed size
specified by CONFIG_KERNEL_VM_SIZE.
Driver MMIOs and other uses of k_mem_map() are still
virtually mapped, and the later introduction of demand
paging will result in only a subset of system RAM being
a fixed identity mapping instead of all of it.

It implements gdb remote protocol to talk with a host gdb during the
debug session. The implementation is divided in three layers:
1 - The top layer that is responsible for the gdb remote protocol.
2 - An architecture specific layer responsible to write/read registers,
set breakpoints, handle exceptions, ...
3 - A transport layer to be used to communicate with the host
The communication with GDB in the host is synchronous and the systems
stops execution waiting for instructions and return its execution after
a "continue" or "step" command. The protocol has an exception that is
when the host sends a packet to cause an interruption, usually triggered
by a Ctrl-C. This implementation ignores this instruction though.
This initial work supports only X86 using uart as backend.

To debug hard-to-reproduce faults/panics, it's helpful to get the full
register state at the time a fault occurred. This enables recovering
full backtraces and the state of local variables at the time of a
crash.
This PR introduces a new Kconfig option, CONFIG_EXTRA_EXCEPTION_INFO,
to facilitate this use case. The option enables the capturing of the
callee-saved register state (r4-r11 & exc_return) during a fault. The
info is forwarded to `k_sys_fatal_error_handler` in the z_arch_esf_t
parameter. From there, the data can be saved for post-mortem analysis.
To test the functionality a new unit test was added to
tests/arch/arm_interrupt which verifies the register contents passed
in the argument match the state leading up to a crash.

to a binary file, it can be used with the ELF output file as
inputs to an overly simplified implementation of a GDB server.
This GDB server can be attached via the target remote command of
GDB and will be serving register and memory content. This allows
using GDB to examine stack and memory where the fatal error
occurred.

The existing stack_analyze APIs had some problems:
1. Not properly namespaced
2. Accepted the stack object as a parameter, yet the stack object
does not contain the necessary information to get the associated
buffer region, the thread object is needed for this
3. Caused a crash on certain platforms that do not allow inspection
of unused stack space for the currently running thread
4. No user mode access
5. Separately passed in thread name
We deprecate these functions and add a new API
k_thread_stack_space_get() which addresses all of these issues.
