1. Clarify THREADPTR calculation in FreeRTOS code, explaining where
the constant 0x10 offset comes from.
2. On the ESP32-S2, .flash.rodata section had different default
alignment (8 bytes instead of 16), which resulted in different offset
of the TLS sections. Unfortunately I haven’t found a way to query
section alignment from C code, or to use a constant value to define
section alignment in the linker script. The linker scripts are
modified to force a fixed 16 byte alignment for .flash.rodata on the
ESP32 and ESP32-S2beta. Note that the base address of .flash.rodata
was already 16 byte aligned, so this has not changed the actual
memory layout of the application.
Full explanation of the calculation below.
Assume we have the TLS template section base address
(tls_section_vma), the address of a TLS variable in the template
(address), and the final relocation value (offset). The linker
calculates:
offset = address - tls_section_vma + align_up(TCB_SIZE, alignment).
At run time, the TLS section gets copied from _thread_local_start
(in .rodata) to task_thread_local_start. Let’s assume that an address
of a variable in the runtime TLS section is runtime_address.
Access to this address will happen by calculating THREADPTR + offset.
So, by a series of substitutions:
THREADPTR + offset = runtime_address THREADPTR = runtime_address - offset
THREADPTR = runtime_address - (address - tls_section_vma + align_up(TCB_SIZE, alignment)) THREADPTR = (runtime_address - address) + tls_section_vma - align_up(TCB_SIZE, alignment)
The difference between runtime_address and address is same as the
difference between task_thread_local_start and _thread_local_start.
And tls_section_vma is the address of .rodata section, i.e.
_rodata_start. So we arrive to
THREADPTR = task_thread_local_start - _thread_local_start + _rodata_start - align_up(TCB_SIZE, alignment).
The idea with TCB_SIZE being added to the THREADPTR when computing
the relocation was to let the OS save TCB pointer in the TREADPTR
register. The location of the run-time TLS section was assumed to be
immediately after the TCB, aligned to whatever the section alignment
was. However in our case the problem is that the run-time TLS section
is stored not next to the TCB, but at the top of the stack. Plus,
even if it was stored next to the TCB, the size of a FreeRTOS TCB is
not equal to 8 bytes (TCB_SIZE hardcoded in the linker). So we have
to calculate THREADPTR in a slightly obscure way, to compensate for
these differences.
Closes IDF-1239
The NimBLE host buffers that consume a significant amount of memory are
now allocated dynamically.
The advantage is that, the memory can be reclaimed in cases where BLE
is turned off and not required for the current boot cycle
spin_lock: cleaned-up port files and removed portmux files
components/soc: decoupled compare and set operations from FreeRTOS
soc/spinlock: filled initial implementation of spinlock refactor
It will decouple the spinlocks into separated components with not depencences of freertos
an similar interface was provided focusing the readabillity and maintenance, also
naming to spinlocks were adopted. On FreeRTOS side the legacy portMUX macros
gained a form of wrapper functions that calls the spinlocks component thus
minimizing the impact on RTOS side.
This feature aims to close IDF-967
soc/spinlock: spinlocks passed on unit test, missing test corner cases
components/compare_set: added better function namings plus minor performance optimization on spinlocks
soc/spinlock: code reordering to remove ISC C90 mix error
freertos/portmacro: gor rid of critical sections multiline macros, placed inline functions instead
soc/spinlock: improved spinlock performance from internal RAM
For cases where the spinlock is executed from IRAM, there is no
need to check where the spinlock object is placed on memory,
removing this checks caused a great improvement on performance.
SOMAXCONN is expected to be defined in this header, but for the esp32
port is found in net/if.h from newlib.
Avoid the issue by including the net/if.h header in sys/socket.h so that
compatibility is preserved.

Some applications (i.e. Azure IoT SDK) are expecting this header to
exist and to contain the tcp constants and description.
The esp32 did not wrap the lwip/tcp.h header, thus this commit adds a
compatibility layer.

1. use spi functions in rom
2. remove unnecessary GPIO configurations.
3. remove unnecessary dummy settings.
4. enable dummy out function
5. flash and psram have independent timing setting registers.
6. no need to set 1.9v for LDO in 80Mhz
7. set IO driver ability to 1 by default.
8. no need to use GPIO matrix on esp32s2, IO MUX is recommended
9. enable spi clock mode and IO mode settings
1. Delete bootloader_clock_get_rated_freq_mhz, esp32s2 do not need it right now
2. Remove bootloader_flash_gpio_config () because it has the same function as bootloader_flash_dummy_config
