Rename _DEVICE_STRUCT_SIZE to _DEVICE_STRUCT_SIZEOF. This causes it to
be picked by the script 'gen_offset_header.py' and inserted into the
header file 'include/generated/offsets.h'.
Renaming from x_SIZE to x_SIZEOF will align it's name with the other
symbols that denote a sctruct's size, like K_THREAD_SIZEOF.
Furthermore, it will allow the symbol to be accessed through a header
file define, instead of only as an extern symbol. This is more
flexible, and more aligned with the other symbols in offsets.
Finally, if we are able to move all of offsets.c symbols into the
offsets.h header file we be able to remove offsets.o from the link and

Summary: revised attempt at addressing issue 6290. The
following provides an alternative to using
CONFIG_APPLICATION_MEMORY by compartmentalizing data into
Memory Domains. Dependent on MPU limitations, supports
compartmentalized Memory Domains for 1...N logical
applications. This is considered an initial attempt at
designing flexible compartmentalized Memory Domains for
multiple logical applications and, with the provided python
script and edited CMakeLists.txt, provides support for power
of 2 aligned MPU architectures.
Overview: The current patch uses qualifiers to group data into
subsections. The qualifier usage allows for dynamic subsection
creation and affords the developer a large amount of flexibility
in the grouping, naming, and size of the resulting partitions and
domains that are built on these subsections. By additional macro
calls, functions are created that help calculate the size,
address, and permissions for the subsections and enable the
developer to control application data in specified partitions and
memory domains.
Background: Initial attempts focused on creating a single
section in the linker script that then contained internally
grouped variables/data to allow MPU/MMU alignment and protection.
This did not provide additional functionality beyond
CONFIG_APPLICATION_MEMORY as we were unable to reliably group
data or determine their grouping via exported linker symbols.
Thus, the resulting decision was made to dynamically create
subsections using the current qualifier method. An attempt to
group the data by object file was tested, but found that this
broke applications such as ztest where two object files are
created: ztest and main. This also creates an issue of grouping
the two object files together in the same memory domain while
also allowing for compartmenting other data among threads.
Because it is not possible to know a) the name of the partition
and thus the symbol in the linker, b) the size of all the data
in the subsection, nor c) the overall number of partitions
created by the developer, it was not feasible to align the
subsections at compile time without using dynamically generated
linker script for MPU architectures requiring power of 2
alignment.
In order to provide support for MPU architectures that require a
power of 2 alignment, a python script is run at build prior to
when linker_priv_stacks.cmd is generated. This script scans the
built object files for all possible partitions and the names given
to them. It then generates a linker file (app_smem.ld) that is
included in the main linker.ld file. This app_smem.ld allows the
compiler and linker to then create each subsection and align to
the next power of 2.
Usage:
- Requires: app_memory/app_memdomain.h .
- _app_dmem(id) marks a variable to be placed into a data
section for memory partition id.
- _app_bmem(id) marks a variable to be placed into a bss
section for memory partition id.
- These are seen in the linker.map as "data_smem_id" and
"data_smem_idb".
- To create a k_mem_partition, call the macro
app_mem_partition(part0) where "part0" is the name then used to
refer to that partition. This macro only creates a function and
necessary data structures for the later "initialization".
- To create a memory domain for the partition, the macro
app_mem_domain(dom0) is called where "dom0" is the name then
used for the memory domain.
- To initialize the partition (effectively adding the partition
to a linked list), init_part_part0() is called. This is followed
by init_app_memory(), which walks all partitions in the linked
list and calculates the sizes for each partition.
- Once the partition is initialized, the domain can be
initialized with init_domain_dom0(part0) which initializes the
domain with partition part0.
- After the domain has been initialized, the current thread
can be added using add_thread_dom0(k_current_get()).
- The code used in ztests ans kernel/init has been added under
a conditional #ifdef to isolate the code from other tests.
The userspace test CMakeLists.txt file has commands to insert
the CONFIG_APP_SHARED_MEM definition into the required build
targets.
Example:
/* create partition at top of file outside functions */
app_mem_partition(part0);
/* create domain */
app_mem_domain(dom0);
_app_dmem(dom0) int var1;
_app_bmem(dom0) static volatile int var2;
int main()
{
init_part_part0();
init_app_memory();
init_domain_dom0(part0);
add_thread_dom0(k_current_get());
...
}
- If multiple partitions are being created, a variadic
preprocessor macro can be used as provided in
app_macro_support.h:
FOR_EACH(app_mem_partition, part0, part1, part2);
or, for multiple domains, similarly:
FOR_EACH(app_mem_domain, dom0, dom1);
Similarly, the init_part_* can also be used in the macro:
FOR_EACH(init_part, part0, part1, part2);
Testing:
- This has been successfully tested on qemu_x86 and the
ARM frdm_k64f board. It compiles and builds power of 2
aligned subsections for the linker script on the 96b_carbon
boards. These power of 2 alignments have been checked by
hand and are viewable in the zephyr.map file that is
produced during build. However, due to a shortage of
available MPU regions on the 96b_carbon board, we are unable
to test this.
- When run on the 96b_carbon board, the test suite will
enter execution, but each individaul test will fail due to
an MPU FAULT. This is expected as the required number of
MPU regions exceeds the number allowed due to the static
allocation. As the MPU driver does not detect this issue,
the fault occurs because the data being accessed has been
placed outside the active MPU region.
- This now compiles successfully for the ARC boards
em_starterkit_em7d and em_starterkit_em7d_v22. However,
as we lack ARC hardware to run this build on, we are unable
to test this build.
Current known issues:
1) While the script and edited CMakeLists.txt creates the
ability to align to the next power of 2, this does not
address the shortage of available MPU regions on certain
devices (e.g. 96b_carbon). In testing the APB and PPB
regions were commented out.
2) checkpatch.pl lists several issues regarding the
following:
a) Complex macros. The FOR_EACH macros as defined in
app_macro_support.h are listed as complex macros needing
parentheses. Adding parentheses breaks their
functionality, and we have otherwise been unable to
resolve the reported error.
b) __aligned() preferred. The _app_dmem_pad() and
_app_bmem_pad() macros give warnings that __aligned()
is preferred. Prior iterations had this implementation,
which resulted in errors due to "complex macros".
c) Trailing semicolon. The macro init_part(name) has
a trailing semicolon as the semicolon is needed for the
inlined macro call that is generated when this macro
expands.
Update: updated to alternative CONFIG_APPLCATION_MEMORY.
Added config option CONFIG_APP_SHARED_MEM to enable a new section
app_smem to contain the shared memory component. This commit
seperates the Kconfig definition from the definition used for the
conditional code. The change is in response to changes in the
way the build system treats definitions. The python script used
to generate a linker script for app_smem was also midified to
simplify the alignment directives. A default linker script
app_smem.ld was added to remove the conditional includes dependency
on CONFIG_APP_SHARED_MEM. By addining the default linker script

This patch adds a RAM section for the USB descriptors and
USB interfaces data.
The parts of USB descriptor can be declared independently in
different USB class drivers or functions. These must then be

in a RAM section. There may also be several device descriptors

Since at runtime the number of interfaces and endpoints in the

The class drivers or functions use the usb_cfg_data struct to
store the callbacks, interface and endpoints data. This struct
must also be corrected and needs to be placed in the data section.

With this commit it is possible to add priority to sent or received

packets faster than lower level packets.
The traffic class support is activated by CONFIG_NET_TC_COUNT option.
The TC support uses work queues to separate the traffic. The
priority of the work queue thread specifies the ordering of the
network traffic. Each work queue thread handles traffic to one specific
work queue. Note that you should not enable traffic classes unless
you really need them by your application. Each TC thread needs
stack so this feature requires more memory.
It is possible to disable transmit traffic class support and keep the
receive traffic class support, or vice versa. If both RX and TX traffic
classes are enabled, then both will use the same number of queues
defined by CONFIG_NET_TC_COUNT option.

Additionally CONFIG_SIZE_OPTIMIZATIONS is introduced to allow the user
to explicitly request optimizing for size instead of relying on
defaulting to it.
The three config's {NO,SIZE,DEBUG}_OPTIMIZATIONS are now organized in
a Kconfig choice to ensure that at most one can be enabled at a time.
Finally, selected users of CONFIG_DEBUG have been ported to use one of
the optimizations configs when it was clear from usage that the
intention was to behave differently when using a different
optimization level and not when in "debug mode".

It's possible to declare static threads that start up as K_USER,
but these threads can't do much since they start with permissions on
no kernel objects other than their own thread object.
Rather than do some run-time synchronization to have some other thread
grant the necessary permissions, we introduce macros
to conveniently assign object permissions to these threads when they
are brought up at boot by the kernel. The tables generated here
are constant and live in ROM when possible.
Example usage:
K_THREAD_DEFINE(my_thread, STACK_SIZE, my_thread_entry,
NULL, NULL, NULL, 0, K_USER, K_NO_WAIT);
K_THREAD_ACCESS_GRANT(my_thread, &my_sem, &my_mutex, &my_pipe);

We need to track permission on stack memory regions like we do
with other kernel objects. We want stacks to live in a memory
area that is outside the scope of memory domain permission
management. We need to be able track what stacks are in use,
and what stacks may be used by user threads trying to call
k_thread_create().
Some special handling is needed because thread stacks appear as
variously-sized arrays of struct _k_thread_stack_element which is
just a char. We need the entire array to be considered an object,
but also properly handle arrays of stacks.
Validation of stacks also requires that the bounds of the stack
are not exceeded. Various approaches were considered. Storing
the size in some header region of the stack itself would not allow
the stack to live in 'noinit'. Having a stack object be a data
structure that points to the stack buffer would confound our
current APIs for declaring stacks as arrays or struct members.
In the end, the struct _k_object was extended to store this size.

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.

These special kernel sections represent arrays of kernel objects than
are iterated over at runtime to perform initialization.
The code expects all the data in these sections to be in the form of an
array of that section type, with each element sizeof(type) bytes apart.
Unfortunately, the linker sometimes has other plans and in some cases
was defaulting to aligning the data to some large power-of-two value,
such as 64 bytes. This causes any attempt to iterate over these sections
to fail as they are not a proper array.

Upcoming memory protection features will be placing some additional
constraints on kernel objects:
- They need to reside in memory owned by the kernel and not the
application
- Certain kernel object validation schemes will require some run-time
initialization of all kernel objects before they can be used.
Per Ben these initializer macros were never intended to be public. It is
not forbidden to use them, but doing so requires care: the memory being
initialized must reside in kernel space, and extra runtime
initialization steps may need to be peformed before they are fully
usable as kernel objects. In particular, kernel subsystems or drivers
whose objects are already in kernel memory may still need to use these
macros if they define kernel objects as members of a larger data
structure.
It is intended that application developers instead use the
K_<object>_DEFINE macros, which will automatically put the object in the
right memory and add them to a section which can be iterated over at
boot to complete initiailization.
There was no K_WORK_DEFINE() macro for creating struct k_work objects,

For various reasons its often necessary to generate certain
complex data structures at build-time by separate tools outside
of the C compiler. Data is populated to these tools by way of
special binary sections not intended to be included in the final
binary. We currently do this to generate interrupt tables, forthcoming
work will also use this to generate MMU page tables.
The way we have been doing this is to generatea "kernel_prebuilt.elf",
extract the metadata sections with objcopy, run the tool, and then
re-link the kernel with the extra data *and* use objcopy to pull
out the unwanted sections.
This doesn't scale well if multiple post-build steps are needed.
Now this is much simpler; in any Makefile, a special
GENERATED_KERNEL_OBJECT_FILES variable may be appended to containing
the filenames to the generated object files, which will be generated
by Make in the usual fashion.
Instead of using objcopy to pull out, we now create a linker-pass2.cmd
which additionally defines LINKER_PASS2. The source linker script
can #ifdef around this to use the special /DISCARD/ section target
to not include metadata sections in the final binary.
