This patch fixes UART system call authorization initialization (when
protection domain support is enabled) to only initialize the system call
entrypoint and authorization data structures once, prior to per-port
setup. Previously, if two UARTs were configured, the setup procedure for
the second UART would erase the system call authorization for the
first (console) UART, resulting in a crash upon the next attempt to
perform console output.
If `NETSTACK_CONF_RADIO.set_value(RADIO_PARAM_CHANNEL, ...)` is called when radio is on, it will fail to apply the channel change, because it won't re-send `CMD_PROP_RADIO_DIV_SETUP` and `CMD_PROP_FS`. This commit fixes this condition, by making sure the correct commands are sent to the radio.
As discussed in #1341, the current CC13xx/CC26xx IEEE mode driver sends `CMD_GET_RSSI` once and returns the RSSI reading uncondtionally. This happens within the `get_rssi()` function.
This logic is broken if `get_rssi()` is called with the radio off. The function will make sure to turn on the radio first, but it does not make sure the RSSI reading is valid, which only happens a number of symbol periods after the radio enters RX. The outcome is that `NETSTACK_RADIO.get_value(RADIO_PARAM_RSSI, ...)` will always return -128 (meaning that RSSI is unavailable) if the radio was off at the time of calling the function.
The same condition affects the prop mode driver.
This commit changes the logic of `get_rssi()`:
* For PROP mode, if `CMD_GET_RSSI` returns an invalid RSSI, we send it again. For unknown reasons, `CMD_GET_RSSI` on occasion returns 0, so we ignore that value too.
* For IEEE mode, we use `CMD_IEEE_CCA_REQ` and we inspect the value of `ccaInfo.ccaEnergy` of the return structure. If the value is 0x02 (Invalid), we send the command again.
Fixes#1341
After reading a frame, `read()` checks the status of the RX FIFO:
* If an overflow is detected, the FIFO gets flushed
* If there are more frames in the FIFO, the `cc2538_rf_process` will get polled again in order to read out the next frame.
#1550 changed `read()`, which now performs the above check for non-poll mode, but it then flushes the FIFO unconditionally. Therefore, if there are two or more frames in the FIFO, they will get flushed before the `cc2538_rf_process` has had a chance to read them out. This results in missed frames.
Reproducing this is trivial: Build a CC2538 sniffer and see how it will never show you .15.4 ACK frames. ACK reception completes while `read()` is still streaming the previous captured frame to the host. Upon completion, the FIFO will get flushed and the ACK will get lost.
This pull proposes removing the unconditional flush and reverting to the original logic for non-TSCH operation.
Pinging @thomas-ha here for input regarding poll mode.
This pull sits on top of #1778
Depending on the use case and on the timings,
aes_auth_crypt_check_status() sometimes never reported an available
result, leading to a deadlock of any protothread waiting for this event,
and to a WDT reset if a protothread was polling it.
This was caused by aes_auth_crypt_start() clearing the result available
interrupt after operations that may rightfully trigger it, leading to a
missed interrupt.

Introduce FLASH_CONF_FW_ADDR and FLASH_CONF_FW_SIZE in order to make it
possible to place the firmware anywhere, regardless of Coffee, and
without having to write a custom linker script. Also, handle the default
values properly in order to fix the link breakage reported by
Arthur Fabre <arthur@arthurfabre.com> with COFFEE_CONF_CUSTOM_PORT.

The conditional definitions in project-conf.h depending on

linker script if it used these definitions, so the flashed applications
could crash or malfunction.

The block that controls the `.upload` target is unnecessarily replicated in multiple sub-board Makefiles. This was originally done because the SmartRF and the Launchpad can be programmed with the c2538-bsl script, whereas the sensortag cannot.
This commit moves the `cc2538-bsl` / `.upload` target logic to the top level cpu Makefile (`cpu/cc26xx-cc13xx/Makefile.cc26xx-cc13xx`). Board makefiles simply set the make variable `BOARD_SUPPORTS_BSL` to 1 to signal that they can be programmed by the BSL script. If `BOARD_SUPPORTS_BSL` is not equal to 1, trying to use the `.upload` target will return an error message.
For example:
```
$ make BOARD=sensortag/cc2650 cc26xx-demo.upload
using saved target 'srf06-cc26xx'
This board cannot be programmed with the ROM bootloader and therefore does not support the .upload target.
```
This patch adds a simple non-driver protection domain sample to serve
as an example for defining other non-driver protection domains. It
simply performs a ping-pong test of protection domain switching
latency during boot, including optional accesses to a private metadata
region, and prints out the results.
This patch extends the protection domain framework with a third plugin
that is a hybrid of the previous two. The hardware task switching
mechanism has a strictly-defined format for TSS data structures that
causes more space to be consumed than would otherwise be required.
This patch defines a smaller data structure that is allocated for each
protection domain, only requiring 32 bytes instead of 128 bytes. It
uses the same multi-segment memory layout as the TSS-based plugin and
leaves paging disabled. However, it uses a similar mechanism as the
paging plugin to perform system call dispatches and returns.
For additional information, please refer to cpu/x86/mm/README.md.
This patch extends the protection domain framework with an additional
plugin to use Task-State Segment (TSS) structures to offload much of
the work of switching protection domains to the CPU. This can save
space compared to paging, since paging requires two 4KiB page tables
and one 32-byte page table plus one whole-system TSS and an additional
32-byte data structure for each protection domain, whereas the
approach implemented by this patch just requires a 128-byte data
structure for each protection domain. Only a small number of
protection domains will typically be used, so
n * 128 < 8328 + (n * 32).

GCC 6 is introducing named address spaces for the FS and GS segments
[1]. LLVM Clang also provides address spaces for the FS and GS
segments [2]. This patch also adds support to the multi-segment X86
memory management subsystem for using these features instead of inline
assembly blocks, which enables type checking to detect some address
space mismatches.

If the setup of socket 0 to 3 with 4+2+1+1KB is detected then the W5100 is _not_ initialized, otherwise it does set up socket 0 and 1 with 4KB each. Either way socket 0 is used - now with 4KB instead of 8KB as before.
This patch implements a simple, lightweight form of protection domains
using a pluggable framework. Currently, the following plugin is
available:
- Flat memory model with paging.
The overall goal of a protection domain implementation within this
framework is to define a set of resources that should be accessible to
each protection domain and to prevent that protection domain from
accessing other resources. The details of each implementation of
protection domains may differ substantially, but they should all be
guided by the principle of least privilege. However, that idealized
principle is balanced against the practical objectives of limiting the
number of relatively time-consuming context switches and minimizing
changes to existing code.
For additional information, please refer to cpu/x86/mm/README.md.
This patch also causes the C compiler to be used as the default linker
and assembler.
