Squashed commit of the following:
net/icmpv6: IPPROT_ICMP6 socket logic now builds without error.
net/icmpv6: Add support for read-ahead and poll(). Initial commit is just cloned from ICMP with the appropriate name changes.
configs/: All defconfig filess that include CONFIG_NET_ICMPv6_SOCKET=y need to select CONFIG_SYSTEM_PING6=y and deselect CONFIG_DISABLE_POLL.
Update NSH documention to show that ping6 is now a built in command.
net/icmpv6: Add icmpv6_sendto.c and icmpv6_recvfrom.c. Initial versions are just clones from icmp/ with appropriate name changes.
net/icmpv6: Clone some ICMP socket logic as the beginning of support for ICMPv6 socket support.
Rename CONFIG_NET_ICMPv6_PING to CONFIG_NET_ICMPv6_SOCKET. Move prototype for icmpv6_ping from include/nuttx/net/icmpv6 to net/icmpv6/icmpv6.h
Replace all calls to sigqueue() in the OS proper with calls to nxsig_queue() to avoid accessing the errno variable.
sched/signal: Add nxsig_queue() which is functionally equivalent to sigqueue() except that it does not modify the errno variable.
Replace all usage kill() in the OS proper with nxsig_kill().
sched/signal: Add nxsig_kill() which is functionally equivalent to kill() except that it does 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.
Provide a user defined callback context for irq's, such that when
registering a callback users can provide a pointer that will get
passed back when the isr is called.
