In the two pass build, the application logic is built during the first phase, pass 1. In that phase, the application may generate and install source files in the pass1/directory. The operating system is built during phase 2 of the build. At that time, those source files in the pass1/ directory will be built and incorporated into the kernel address space.
The primary purpose of the pass1/ directory is to such application-generated kernel symbol tables. For an example of the use of this feature, look at apps/examples/module/drivers/Makefile. Kernel symbol tables are needed to support kernel modules. Of course, addition board-specific logic in, say, configs/<board>/src would have to be included to make use of the application-installed symbol tables.
binfmt: Refactor binfmt_exec.c
This change also fixes an argv issue for CONFIG_SCHED_ONEXIT=n
or CONFIG_SCHED_HAVE_PARENT=n

binfmt/, libs/libc/unistd, and others: Rename CONFIG_EXECFUNCS_SYMTAB to CONFIG_EXECFUNCS_SYMTAB_ARRAY. Rename CONFIG_EXECFUNCS_NSYMBOLS to CONFIG_EXECFUNCS_NSYMBOLS_VAR. Unlike CONFIG_EXECFUNCS_NSYMBOLS, CONFIG_EXECFUNCS_NSYMBOLS_VAR holds the name of an 'int' variable that contains the number of symbols in the symbol table.
configs/sama5d4-ek: Partial update to knsh build instructions.
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
sched/sched: Correct some build issues introduced by last set of changes.
sched/sched: Add new internal OS function nxsched_setaffinity() that is identical to sched_isetaffinity() except that it does not modify the errno value. All usage of sched_setaffinity() within the OS is replaced with nxsched_setaffinity().
sched/sched: Internal functions sched_reprioritize() and sched_setpriority() no longer movidify the errno value. Also renamed to nxsched_reprioritize() and sched_setpriority().
sched/sched: Add new internal OS function nxsched_getscheduler() that is identical to sched_getscheduler() except that it does not modify the errno value. All usage of sched_getscheduler() within the OS is replaced with nxsched_getscheduler().
sched/sched: Add new internal OS function nxsched_setparam() that is identical to sched_setparam() except that it does not modify the errno value. All usage of sched_setparam() within the OS is replaced with nxsched_setparam().
sched/sched: Add new internal OS function nxsched_getparam() that is identical to sched_getparam() except that it does not modify the errno value (actually, the previous value erroneously neglected to set the errno value to begin with, but this fixes both issues). All usage of sched_getparam() within the OS is replaced with nxsched_getparam().
Replace all calls to sigprocmask() in the OS proper with calls to nxsig_procmask().
sched/signal: Add internal OS interface nxsig_procmask(). This internal interface is equivalent to the standard sigprocmask() used by applications except that it does not modify the errno value. Also fixes a problem in that the original sigprocmask() was not setting the errno.
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.
binfmt: Fix some compilation issues introduced in previous changes. Verfied with the STM32F4-Discovery ELF configuration.
binfmt: schedule_unload() is an internal OS function and must not alter the errno variable.
binfmt: unload_module() is an internal OS function and must not alter the errno variable.
binfmt: load_module() is an internal OS function and must not alter the errno variable.
binfmt: exec_module() is an internal OS function and must not alter the errno variable.
