Having two different spinlocks is problematic due to possibly
different order in which the locks will be taken. Changing the order
would require significant restructuring of kernel code which is
undesirable.
An additional place where taking xTickCountMutex was needed was in
vApplicationSleep function. Not taking xTickCountMutex resulted in
other CPU sometimes possibly advancing tick count while light sleep
entry/exit was happening. Taking xTickCountMutex in addition to
xTaskQueueMutex has shown a problem that in different code paths,
these two spinlocks could be taken in different order, leading to
(unlikely, but possible) deadlocks.
In earlier change this component was decoupled from freertos and hence
regression was introduced which changed default placement to flash. Some
device drivers make use of ringbuffer while flash cache is being disabled
and hence default placement should instead be internal memory.

This commit updates some of the API references in task.h so
that stack sizes are referred to in bytes rather than words as
found in the vanilla version.
Closes#2528
If CONFIG_FREERTOS_LEGACY_HOOKS is kept enabled then defining
idle/tick hooks will be applications responsibility as was the
case earlier.

This commit adds an option to enclose all FreeRTOS task functions within a
wrapper function. In the case that a task function returns, the wrapper function
will log an error and abort the application immediately.

This fixes multiple bugs with ring buffers and re-factors the code. The public
API has not changed, however the underlying implementation have various private
functions have been changed. The following behavioral changes have been made
- Size of ring buffers for No-Split/Allow-Split buffers will not be rounded
up to the nearest 32-bit aligned size. This was done to simplify the
implementation
- Item size for No-Split/Allow-Split buffers will also be rounded up to the
nearest 32-bit aligned size.
The following bugs have been fixed
- In copyItemToRingbufAllowSplit(), when copying an item where the aligned
size is smaller than the remaining length, the function does not consider
the case where the true size of the item is less than 4 bytes.
- The copy functions will automatically wrap around the write pointers when
the remaining length of the buffer is not large enough to fit a header, but
does not consider if wrapping around will cause an overlap with the read
pointer. This will make a full buffer be mistaken for an empty buffer
closes#1711
- xRingbufferSend() can get stuck in a infinite loop when the size of the
free memory is larger than the needed_size, but too small to fit in the ring
buffer due to alignment and extra overhead of wrapping around.
closes#1846
- Fixed documentation with ring buffer queue set API
- Adding and removing from queue set does not consider the case where the
read/write semaphores actually hold a value.
The following functions have been deprecated
- xRingbufferIsNextItemWrapped() due to lack of thread safety
- xRingbufferAddToQueueSetWrite() and xRingbufferRemoveFromQueueSetWrite()
as adding the queue sets only work under receive operations.
The following functions have been added
- xRingbufferReceiveSplit() and xRingbufferReceiveSplitFromISR() as a thread
safe way to receive from allow-split buffers
- vRingbufferGetInfo()
Documentation for ring buffers has also been added.
Add function xRingbufferCanRead & xRingbufferCanWrite
to be able use queue sets. Without it is not possible
to check to which ringbuffer returned semaphore belongs.
In situations where idle task runs a lot of idle hooks or cleanup code
(due to pthread local storage, etc) it can use more than 1KB of stack.
(I think the trigger is if a context switch happens at the right point
in the TLS cleanup).
Also removes an sdkconfig.default which accidentally set all config items,
including this stack size.
* Philosophical: "explicit is better than implicit".
* Practical: Allows useful errors if invalid directories given in components as the defaults aren't
always used. Also trims the -I path from a number of components that have no actual include
directory.
* Simplifies knowing which components will be header-only and which won't
