Ulf Magnusson 41713244b3 kconfig: Remove '# Hidden' comments on promptless symbols
How prompts work is better documented nowadays, and these comments might
not be that helpful if you don't know.

There are lots promptless symbols that don't have a comment.

Also fix up some comments in arch/Kconfig that seem misplaced/redundant,
and clean up some whitespace (no blank line after a comment makes it
look like it only applies to the symbol directly after it to me).

Ioannis Glaropoulos 98201228ee arch: enable MPU Gap filling by default in build without user mode
When we build without support for user mode, we do not need
a large number of MPU regions, so we should not allow having
MPU_GAP_FILLING unset. This would allow PRIV code execute from
SRAM, which is an unnecessary compromise on ARMv8-M builds
without USERSPACE support. We update the Kconfig dependencies
and add a sentence for clarification.

Ioannis Glaropoulos 6d789510a5 arch: arm: mpu: introduce option to skip background MPU region fill
We introduce MPU_GAP_FILLING Kconfig option that instructs
the MPU driver to enforce a full SRAM partitioning, when it
programs the dynamic MPU regions (user thread stack, PRIV stack
guard and application memory domains) at context-switch. We
allow this to be configurable, in order to increase the number
of MPU regions available for application memory domain programming.

This option is introduced in arch/Kconfig, as it is expected
to serve as a cross-ARCH symbol. The option can be set by the
user during build configuration.

By not enforcing full partition, we may leave part of kernel
SRAM area covered only by the default ARM memory map. This
is fine for User Mode, since the background ARM map does not
allow nPRIV access at all. The difference is that kernel code
will be able to attempt fetching instructions from kernel SRAM
area without this leading directly to a MemManage exception.

Since this does not compromize User Mode, we make the skipping
of full partitioning the default behavior for the ARMv8-M MPU
driver. The application developer may be able to overwrite this.

In the wake of this change we update the macro definitions in
arm_core_mpu_dev.h that derive the maximum number of MPU regions
for application memory domains.

Ulf Magnusson bd6e04411e kconfig: Clean up header comments and make them consistent

Ulf Magnusson 975de21858 kconfig: Global whitespace/consistency cleanup
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.

Ulf Magnusson ac9fe11f2f Kconfig: Remove copy-pasted comments on some promptless symbols
Remove the

    # Omit prompt to signify a "hidden" option

comments that appear on some symbols. They seem to have been copy-pasted
at random, as there are lots of promptless symbols that don't have them
(that's confusing in itself, because it might give the idea that the
ones with comments are special in some way).

I suspect those comments wouldn't have helped me much if I didn't know
Kconfig either. There's a lot more Kconfig documentation now too, e.g.
https://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/guides/kconfig/index.html.

Andy Ross 42ed12a387 kernel/sched: arch/x86_64: Support synchronous k_thread_abort() in SMP
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.

Andy Ross b69d0da82d arch/x86_64: New architecture added
This patch adds a x86_64 architecture and qemu_x86_64 board to Zephyr.
Only the basic architecture support needed to run 64 bit code is
added; no drivers are added, though a low-level console exists and is
wired to printk().

The support is built on top of a "X86 underkernel" layer, which can be
built in isolation as a unit test on a Linux host.

Limitations:

+ Right now the SDK lacks an x86_64 toolchain.  The build will fall
  back to a host toolchain if it finds no cross compiler defined,
  which is tested to work on gcc 8.2.1 right now.

+ No x87/SSE/AVX usage is allowed.  This is a stronger limitation than
  other architectures where the instructions work from one thread even
  if the context switch code doesn't support it.  We are passing
  -no-sse to prevent gcc from automatically generating SSE
  instructions for non-floating-point purposes, which has the side
  effect of changing the ABI.  Future work to handle the FPU registers
  will need to be combined with an "application" ABI distinct from the
  kernel one (or just to require USERSPACE).

+ Paging is enabled (it has to be in long mode), but is a 1:1 mapping
  of all memory.  No MMU/USERSPACE support yet.

+ We are building with -mno-red-zone for stack size reasons, but this
  is a valuable optimization.  Enabling it requires automatic stack
  switching, which requires a TSS, which means it has to happen after
  MMU support.

+ The OS runs in 64 bit mode, but for compatibility reasons is
  compiled to the 32 bit "X32" ABI.  So while the full 64 bit
  registers and instruction set are available, C pointers are 32 bits
  long and Zephyr is constrained to run in the bottom 4G of memory.

Sebastian Bøe 7201a1ba63 kconfig: Have the 'FLOAT' menu depend on it being enabled
As this was written before, a 'FLAOT' menu entry was present, and to
see what kind of features or configuration it had, one had to navigate
into the menu to determine if anything related to 'FLOAT' was enabled
at all.

Now there is an unchecked box on the 'FLOAT' menu when it is disabled,
which clearly expresses that it is disabled without the need to enter
the menu entry.

This change only changes the menu layout, and not the dependencies of
any options.

Adithya Baglody aa2890e267 arch: Kconfig: Increased the text area for kobject and priv stack
When code relocation feature with userspace mode is turned on we
need a bit more memory to fit the text section for these 2
generated files.

Ioannis Glaropoulos 39bf24a9bd kernel: expose k_mem_partition_attr_t outside User mode
This commit exposes k_mem_partition_attr_t outside User Mode, so
we can use struct k_mem_partition for defining memory partitions
outside the scope of user space (for example, to describe thread
stack guards or no-cacheable MPU regions). A requirement is that
the Zephyr build supports Memory protection. To signify this, a
new hidden, all-architecture Kconfig symbol is defined (MPU). In
the wake of exposing k_mem_partition_attr_t, the commit exposes
the MPU architecture-specific access permission attribute macros
outside the User space context (for all ARCHs), so they can be
used in a more generic way.
