Add support for "absolute" timeouts, which are expressed relative to
system uptime instead of deltas from current time. These allow for
more race-resistant code to be written by allowing application code to
do a single timeout computation, once, and then reuse the timeout
value even if the thread wakes up and needs to suspend again later.

Add a CONFIG_TIMEOUT_64BIT kconfig that, when selected, makes the
k_ticks_t used in timeout computations pervasively 64 bit. This will
allow much longer timeouts and much faster (i.e. more precise) tick
rates. It also enables the use of absolute (not delta) timeouts in an
upcoming commit.

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.

Toggling this symbol probably doesn't make sense, because the

SCHED_IPI_SUPPORTED is enabled through being selected by the ARC_CONNECT

Note that it's not possible to disable the symbol when it's being

Clean up space errors and use a consistent style throughout the Kconfig
files. This makes reading the Kconfig files more distraction-free, helps
with grepping, and encourages the same style getting copied around
everywhere (meaning another pass hopefully won't be needed).
Go for the most common style:
- Indent properties with a single tab, including for choices.
Properties on choices work exactly the same syntactically as
properties on symbols, so not sure how the no-indentation thing
happened.
- Indent help texts with a tab followed by two spaces
- Put a space between 'config' and the symbol name, not a tab. This
also helps when grepping for definitions.
- Do '# A comment' instead of '#A comment'
I tweaked Kconfiglib a bit to find most of the stuff.
Some help texts were reflowed to 79 columns with 'gq' in Vim as well,
though not all, because I was afraid I'd accidentally mess up
formatting.

When tickless is available, all existing devices can handle much
higher timing precision than 10ms. A 10kHz default seems acceptable
without introducing too much range limitation (rollover for a signed
time delta will happen at 2.5 days). Leave the 100 Hz default in
place for ticked configurations, as those are going to be special
purpose usages where the user probably actually cares about interrupt
rate.
Note that the defaulting logic interacts with an obscure trick:
setting the tick rate to zero would indicate "no clock exists" to the
configuration (some platforms use this to drop code from the build).
But now that becomes a kconfig cycle, so to break it we expose
CONFIG_SYS_CLOCK_EXISTS as an app-defined tunable and not a derived
value from the tick rate. Only one test actually did this.

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.

Instead of having to enable ramfunc support manually, just make it

area when the MPU is disabled and 48 bytes when it is enabled, and

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.

enable the stack canaries, and the compiler doesn't support
it. Because what happens now is that if someone enables this option,
and there is no support, the build will succeed but there are no
actual stack canaries in place, and unless the user is paying close
attention to the cmake test output they will have no idea."
