sched/: Convert legitimate uses of task_create() to nxtask_create(). Review handling of returned values from all uses of kthread_create() (as well as nxtask_create()).
graphics/: Review return values for all calls to kthread_start() because it no longer returns an errno.
drivers/: threads started by drivers should be kernel threads, not user tasks. Review return values for all calls to kthread_start() because it no longer returns an errno.
configs/: threads started by board bringup logic should be kernel threads, not user tasksi (part 2 of 2).
sched/task: Add nxtask_create(). Kthread_create() and nxtask_create() are internal OS functions and should not modify the errno variable. configs/: threads started by board bringup logic should be kernel threads, not user tasks.
binfmt/, configs/, grahics/, libc/, mm/, net/, sched/: OS references to the errno variable should always use the set_errno(), get_errno() macros
arch/arm/src/stm32 and stm32f7: Architecture-specific code is not permitted to modify the errno variable. drivers/ and libc/: OS references to the errno variable should always use the set_errno(), get_errno() macros
Squashed commit of the following:
libnx: Need to duplicate some Kconfig setting for NXFONTs if it can be configured and built independently of NX. Also includes some build-related fixes.
configs/sim: Disable NX graphics support in the fb configuration.
libnx: Basic configuration and build changes to support building font support independend of the NX server.
Change all calls to mq_receive() and mq_timedreceive() in the OS to calls to nxmq_receive() and nxmq_timedreceive(), making appropriate changes for differences in return values.
sched/mqueue: Add nxmq_receive() and mxmq_timedreceive() which are functionally equivalent to the standard mq_receive and mq_timedreceive() except that (1) they do not create cancellation points, and (2) the do not modify the application's errno variable.
Change all calls to mq_send() and mq_timedsend() in the OS to calls to nxmq_send() and nxmq_timedsend(), making appropriate changes for differences in return values.
sched/mqueue: Add internal function nxmq_send() and nxmq_timedsend() that are equivalent to mq_send() and mq_timedsend() except that they do not create cancellation points and do to not modify the errno variable.
Squashed commit of the following:
Change all calls to usleep() in the OS proper to calls to nxsig_usleep()
sched/signal: Add a new OS internal function nxsig_usleep() that is functionally equivalent to usleep() but does not cause a cancellaption point and does not modify the errno variable.
sched/signal: Add a new OS internal function nxsig_sleep() that is functionally equivalent to sleep() but does not cause a cancellaption point.
This commit backs out most of commit b4747286b1. That change was added because sem_wait() would sometimes cause cancellation points inappropriated. But with these recent changes, nxsem_wait() is used instead and it is not a cancellation point.
In the OS, all calls to sem_wait() changed to nxsem_wait(). nxsem_wait() does not return errors via errno so each place where nxsem_wait() is now called must not examine the errno variable.
In all OS functions (not libraries), change sem_wait() to nxsem_wait(). This will prevent the OS from creating bogus cancellation points and from modifying the per-task errno variable.
sched/semaphore: Add the function nxsem_wait(). This is a new internal OS interface. It is functionally equivalent to sem_wait() except that (1) it is not a cancellation point, and (2) it does not set the per-thread errno value on return.
sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_post() which is identical to sem_post() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_post in the OS to nxsem_post().
sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_destroy() which is identical to sem_destroy() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_destroy() in the OS to nxsem_destroy().
libc/semaphore and sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_getprotocol() and nxsem_setprotocola which are identical to sem_getprotocol() and set_setprotocol() except that they never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_setprotocol in the OS to nxsem_setprotocol(). sem_getprotocol() was not used in the OS
libc/semaphore: Add nxsem_getvalue() which is identical to sem_getvalue() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_getvalue in the OS to nxsem_getvalue().
sched/semaphore: Rename all internal private functions from sem_xyz to nxsem_xyz. The sem_ prefix is (will be) reserved only for the application semaphore interfaces.
libc/semaphore: Add nxsem_init() which is identical to sem_init() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_init in the OS to nxsem_init().
sched/semaphore: Rename sem_tickwait() to nxsem_tickwait() so that it is clear this is an internal OS function.
sched/semaphoate: Rename sem_reset() to nxsem_reset() so that it is clear this is an internal OS function.
net/: psock_recvfrom() is an internal interface and should not set the errno nor should it be a cancellation point.
net/: psock_accept() is not a cancellation point.
net/: psock_getsockopt() and psock_socket*9 are an internal interfaces and should not set the errno.
net/: psock_getsockopt() is an internal interface and should not set the errno.
net/: psock_listen() is an internal interface and should not set the errno.
net/: psock_connect(( is an internal interface and should not set the errno nor should it be a cancellation point.
net/: psock_bind() is an internal interface and should not set the errno.
net/: psock_accept() is an internal interface and should not set the errno.
