Scheduling relative timeouts from within timer callbacks (=sys clock ISR
context) differs from scheduling relative timeouts from an application
context.
This change documents and explains the rationale of this distinction.

As both C and C++ standards require applications running under an OS to
return 'int', adapt that for Zephyr to align with those standard. This also
eliminates errors when building with clang when not using -ffreestanding,
and reduces the need for compiler flags to silence warnings for both clang
and gcc.

The typedef defines an interrupt config routine with `const struct device
*dev`, while the example function had (void) as argument. This could be
considered confusing / would throw compiler warnings even though the
parameter isn't strictly necessary.
Code examples for initializing an IRQ in a device example follow the
updated pattern (e.g. see `drivers/serial/uart_npcx.c`).

Augment the doc with functionality added in commit a211970b42 ("riscv:
improve contended FPU switching").
Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <npitre@baylibre.com>
FPU context switching is always performed on demand through the FPU
access exception handler. Actual task switching only grants or denies
FPU access depending on the current FPU owner.
Because RISC-V doesn't have a dedicated FPU access exception, we must
catch the Illegal Instruction exception and look for actual FP opcodes.
There is no longer a need to allocate FPU storage on the stack for every
exception making esf smaller and stack overflows less likely.

pointer to validate that the user has write permission to underlying

It is important to verify the memory not only for reads, but also for
writes, as otherwise the function can be abused by usermode code to
write to privileged read/write, unprivileged read-only memory partition.

The `ARCH` init level was added to solve a specific problem, call init
code (SYS_INIT/devices) before `z_cstart` in the `intel_adsp` platform.
The documentation claims it runs before `z_cstart`, but this is only
true if the SoC/arch takes care of calling:
```c
z_sys_init_run_level(_SYS_INIT_LEVEL_ARCH);
```
Which is only true for `intel_adsp` nowadays. So in practice, we now
have a platform specific init level. This patch proposes to do things in
a slightly different way. First, level name is renamed to `EARLY`, to
emphasize it runs in the early stage of the boot process. Then, it is
handled by the Kernel (inside `z_cstart()` before calling
`arch_kernel_init()`). This means that any platform can now use this
level. For `intel_adsp`, there should be no changes, other than
`gcov_static_init()` will be called before (I assume this will allow to
obtain coverage for code called in EARLY?).

Currently, to compute the 'item' size in a ring buffer, we have
`SIZE32_OF`.
Several issues with this:
- `SIZE32_OF` only works on variables, not types, due to an extra
parenthesis pair. Indeed, `sizeof((int))` is not valid C, whereas
`sizeof((my_var))` is.
- `SIZE32_OF` is not a proper public API
- `SIZE32_OF` rounds down if the argument size is not a multiple
of 4 bytes.
Thus, we introduce a proper `RING_BUF_ITEM_SIZEOF`, fixing the
aforementioned issues.

Currently the device MMIO APIs is only able to map single DT-defined
regions and also the _NAMED variant is assuming that each DT-defined
device has only one single region to map.
This is a limitation and a problem when in the DT are defined devices
with multiple regions that need to be mapped.
This patch is trying to overcome this limitation by introducing the
DEVICE_MMIO_NAMED_ROM_INIT_BY_NAME macro that leveraged the 'reg-names'
DT property to map multiple regions defined by a single device.
So for example in the DT we can have a device like:
driver@c4000000 {
reg = <0xc4000000 0x1000>, <0xc4001000 0x1000>;
reg-names = "region0", "region1";
};
and then we can use DEVICE_MMIO_NAMED_ROM_INIT_BY_NAME doing:
struct driver_config config = {
DEVICE_MMIO_NAMED_ROM_INIT_BY_NAME(region0, DT_DRV_INST(0)),
DEVICE_MMIO_NAMED_ROM_INIT_BY_NAME(region1, DT_DRV_INST(0)),
};

This commit adds the sections describing how the dynamic memory

documentations.
Signed-off-by: Stephanos Ioannidis <root@stephanos.io>
The kernel documentation listed the memory management API pages under
two different sections: 'Kernel/Kernel Services' and
'Kernel/Memory Management' -- this creates unnecessary confusion and
makes it hard to look up all supported kernel memory management APIs.
This commit relocates the memory management API pages under
'Kernel/Kernel Services' to 'Kernel/Memory Management' so that all
memory management APIs provided by the kernel are described in one
unified section.
The link to the 'Kernel/Memory Management' index page is still left in
the 'Kernel Services' page because it may still be helpful to look at
it as part of the services provided by the Zephyr kernel -- it is just
more substantial than the rest and deserves more visibility.
