b99eaca729 sys/arch: Add new interfaces for allocating and checking IRQs
Current usage was being limited to PCIE but there are new use case
that demand for this feature to be generalized.

It is made arch-specific since allocation policy may vary
per-architecture.

e76d385e49 debug: gdbstub: add arch-specific funcs to read/write registers
This adds architecture-specific functions to read/write registers.
This allows architecture to have a sparse representation of
the register file as not all registers are saved during context
switches. This saves some runtime space, and provides some
flexibility on what architectures can do.

Remove from header the need to define ARCH_GDB_NUM_REGISTERS as
it is no longer used in the common gdbstub code.

1cd7cccbb1 kernel: mem_domain: arch_mem_domain functions to return errors
This changes the arch_mem_domain_*() functions to return errors.
This allows the callers a chance to recover if needed.

Note that:
() For assertions where it can bail out early without side
   effects, these are converted to CHECKIF(). (Usually means
   that updating of page tables or translation tables has not
   been started yet.)
() Other assertions are retained to signal fatal errors during
   development.
() The additional CHECKIF() are structured so that it will bail
   early if possible. If errors are encountered inside a loop,
   it will still continue with the loop so it works as before
   this changes with assertions disabled.

7830f87ccd mmu: get virtual alignment from physical address
On ARM64 platforms, when mapping multiple memory zones with size
not multiple of a L2 block size (2MiB), all the following mappings
will probably use L3 tables.

And a huge mapping will consume all possible L3 tables.

In order to reduce usage of L3 tables, this introduces a new
arch_virt_region_align() optional architecture specific
call to eventually return a more optimal virtual address
alignment than the default MMU_PAGE_SIZE.

This alignment is used in virt_region_alloc() by:
- requesting more pages in virt_region_bitmap to make sure we request
  up to the possible aligned virtual address
- freeing the supplementary pages used for alignment

e2333269ae cache: Introduce external cache controller system support
The cache API currently shipped in Zephyr is assuming that the cache
controller is always on-core thus managed at the arch level. This is not
always the case because many SoCs rely on external cache controllers as
a peripheral external to the core (for example PL310 cache controller
and the L2Cxxx family). In some cases you also want a single driver to
control a whole set of cache controllers.

e932a1537c arch: tests: Document interrupt delivery behavior after arch_irq_disable()
Upcoming changes from Andrew that add a global timeout to the kernel
broke because of some voodoo behavior in the kernel/context test.  It
will use arch_irq_disable() on the timer interrupt directly to prevent
interrupts and measure timekeeping in their absence.  But some
architectures[1] don't reliably deliver interrupts that arrive, which
means that a running timeout that exists across this period will
result in a corrupt timeout queue.

Document that rule for architectures, move the offending test to the
end of the test suite (to minimize the chance of interacting with
other test code) and put a giant warning about the situation on it.
Long term, we may want to rework this test to do its job in other
ways.

[1] On x86, the interrupt disable happens at the IO-APIC level, while
interrupt latching and delivery is downstream in each CPU's Local
APIC.  An IO-APIC masked interrupt is completely invisible to the APIC
and can never be delivered once the line goes low.

e77c841023 cache: Expand the APIs for cache flushing
The only two supported operations for data caches in the cache framework
are currently arch_dcache_flush() and arch_dcache_invd().

This is quite restrictive because for some architectures we also want to
control i-cache and in general we want a finer control over what can be
flushed, invalidated or cleaned. To address these needs this patch
expands the set of operations that can be performed on data and
instruction caches, adding hooks for the operations on the whole cache,
a specific level or a specific address range.

941322c49e userspace: document multiple mem domain init calls
k_mem_domain objects should not be initialized multiple times,
there's no support for memory domain life-cycles or freeing
memory that an arch_mem_domain_init() may have allocated.
Clearly document this.

The init function has to assume the provided domain is un-
initialized memory so it's not possible to robustly check
for this; a note is left in the arch_ definition to add an
assertion if feasible.

It's really unsafe to call an init function on any kernel
object more than once, but in this particular case if the
memory domain initialization resulted in the creation of
page tables or linked data structures really bad things can
happen. Currently no arch implements arch_mem_domain_init()
yet, but this is changing soon for x86.

One test case currently does this, it will be fixed in
a forthcoming patch.

f6d32ab0a4 kernel: Add cache coherence management framework
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.

This code had one purpose only, feed timing information into a test and
was not used by anything else. The custom trace points unfortunatly were
not accurate and this test was delivering informatin that conflicted
with other tests we have due to placement of such trace points in the

For such measurements we are planning to use the tracing functionality

architecture and kernel code with additional tracing and timing code.

Furthermore, much of the assembly code used had issues.

5408f3102d debug: x86: Add gdbstub for X86
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.

b0c155f3ca kernel: overhaul stack specification
The core kernel computes the initial stack pointer
for a thread, properly aligning it and subtracting out
any random offsets or thread-local storage areas.
arch_new_thread() no longer needs to make any calculations,
an initial stack frame may be placed at the bounds of
the new 'stack_ptr' parameter passed in. This parameter
replaces 'stack_size'.

thread->stack_info is now set before arch_new_thread()
is invoked, z_new_thread_init() has been removed.
The values populated may need to be adjusted on arches
which carve-out MPU guard space from the actual stack
buffer.

thread->stack_info now has a new member 'delta' which
indicates any offset applied for TLS or random offset.
It's used so the calculations don't need to be repeated
if the thread later drops to user mode.

CONFIG_INIT_STACKS logic is now performed inside
z_setup_new_thread(), before arch_new_thread() is called.

thread->stack_info is now defined as the canonical
user-accessible area within the stack object, including
random offsets and TLS. It will never include any
carved-out memory for MPU guards and must be updated at
runtime if guards are removed.

Available stack space is now optimized. Some arches may
need to significantly round up the buffer size to account
for page-level granularity or MPU power-of-two requirements.
This space is now accounted for and used by virtue of
the Z_THREAD_STACK_SIZE_ADJUST() call in z_setup_new_thread.

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.

8ffff144ea kernel: add architecture interface headers
include/sys/arch_inlines.h will contain all architecture APIs
that are used by public inline functions and macros,
with implementations deriving from include/arch/cpu.h.

kernel/include/arch_interface.h will contain everything
else, with implementations deriving from
arch/*/include/kernel_arch_func.h.

Instances of duplicate documentation for these APIs have been
removed; implementation details have been left in place.
