Instead of having to enable ramfunc support manually, just make it
transparently available to users, keeping the MPU region disabled if not
used to not waste a MPU region. This however wastes 24 bytes of code
area when the MPU is disabled and 48 bytes when it is enabled, and
probably a dozen of CPU cycles during boot. I believe it is something
acceptable.
Note that when XIP is used, code is already in RAM, so the __ramfunc
keyword does nothing, but does not generate an error.

Rename _DEVICE_STRUCT_SIZE to _DEVICE_STRUCT_SIZEOF. This causes it to

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

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

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

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
in the section such as for USB DFU.
Since at runtime the number of interfaces and endpoints in the
composite device descriptor is unknown, they must be corrected.
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.
The descriptor section and data section must be processed by
