Critical sections in FreeRTOS are implemented using the following two
functions:
void vPortEnterCritical( void )
{
portDISABLE_INTERRUPTS();
uxCriticalNesting++;
}
void vPortExitCritical( void )
{
uxCriticalNesting--;
if( uxCriticalNesting == 0 )
{
portENABLE_INTERRUPTS();
}
}
uxCriticalNesting is initialized to a large value at the start and set
to zero when the scheduler is started (xPortStartScheduler). As a
result, before the scheduler is started, a pair of enter/exit critical
section will leave the interrupts disabled because uxCriticalNesting
will not reach zero in the vPortExitCritical function. This is done to
ensure that the interrupts remain disabled from the time first FreeRTOS
API is called to the time when the scheduler is started. The scheduler
starting code is expected to enure that interrupts are enabled before
the first task starts executing.
Cortex-M33 ports were not enabling interrupts before starting the first
task and as a result, the first task was started with interrupts
disabled. This PR fixes the issue by ensuring that interrupts are
enabled before the first task is started.

* Xtensa: fix the coproc_area incorrect issue
foss-xtensa/amazon-freertos#2 mentioned a issue:
1.
In function pxPortInitialiseStack(StackType_t *pxTopOfStack....)
p = (uint32_t *)(((uint32_t) pxTopOfStack - XT_CP_SIZE) & ~0xf);
In function prvInitialiseNewTask (file: task.c)
pxTopOfStack = (pxStack + (ulStackDepth - 1)) & (~portBYTE_ALIGNMENT_MASK)
So the co-processor area is at
p = (uint32_t *)(((uint32_t)((pxStack + (ulStackDepth - 1)) & (~portBYTE_ALIGNMENT_MASK)) - XT_CP_SIZE) & ~0xf);
2.
In function vPortStoreTaskMPUSettings( .... , StackType_t pxBottomOfStack ...)
xMPUSettings->coproc_area = (StackType_t)((((uint32_t)(pxBottomOfStack + usStackDepth - 1)) - XT_CP_SIZE) & ~0xf);
pxBottomOfStack = pxStack
=> xMPUSettings->coproc_area = (StackType_t*)((((uint32_t)(pxStack+ ulStackDepth - 1)) - XT_CP_SIZE ) & ~0xf);
The p is coproc_area that should be equal to xMPUSettings->coproc_area.
For example, assume pxStack is 0xa0000000, ulStackDepth is 0x2000,
portBYTE_ALIGNMENT_MASK is 0x7f, XT_CP_SIZE is 0x100.
The p = (uint32_t)(((uint32_t)((pxStack + (ulStackDepth - 1)) & (~portBYTE_ALIGNMENT_MASK)) - XT_CP_SIZE) & ~0xf)
= 0xa0001e80
The xMPUSettings->coproc_area = (StackType_t)((((uint32_t)(pxStack+ usStackDepth - 1)) - XT_CP_SIZE ) & ~0xf)
= 0xa0001ef0
Obviously, the p is not equal to the xMPUSettings->coproc_area, which will cause context switching error.

In function pxPortInitialiseStack of port.c:
sp = ( StackType_t * ) ( ( ( UBaseType_t ) ( pxTopOfStack + 1 ) - XT_CP_SIZE - XT_STK_FRMSZ ) & ~0xf );
We assume XT_CP_SIZE is 0xE4, XT_STK_FRMSZ is 0xA0, pxTopOfStack is 0xA0000000, sp is 0x9FFFFE80.
From port.c, we know the frame->a1 as below:
frame->a1 = ( UBaseType_t ) sp + XT_STK_FRMSZ; /* physical top of stack frame */
So frame->a1 is 0x9FFFFF20. Therefore the interrupt stack frame range is 0x9FFFFE80 ~ 0x9FFFFF20.
The coproc_area is: p = ( uint32_t * ) ( ( ( uint32_t ) pxTopOfStack - XT_CP_SIZE ) & ~0xf );
So its value is 0x9FFFFF10. Obviously, the interrupt stack frame overlaps the coproc_area.

* Posix: Fix no task switching issue if a task ended
When the main function of a task exits, no task switching happened.
This is because all the remaining tasks are waiting on the condition
variable. The fix is to trigger a task switch and mark the exiting
task as "Dying" to be suspened and exited properly from the scheduler.

In case of using Posix simulator and ending the scheduler, it does

In case of deleting a task from another task, the deletion happens

I discovered a very snicky and tricky race condition scenario when integrating tracealyzer code into our project.
A little background on CortexR5 : When the IRQ line (comming from the interrupt controller, to which every peripheral IRQ lines connect) of the processor rises and the IRQ Enable bit in the status register of the CPU permits it, the CPU traps into interrupt mode. Several things happen. First, the CPU finishes the instruction it was performing. Second, it places the content of the CPSR register into the SPSR_irq register. And third, the mode of the CPU is changed to IRQ_Mode and /!\ THE IRQ ENABLE BIT IN CPSR_irq IS AUTOMATICALLY CLEARED /!\. The reason is to ensure that upon landing into IRQ code, we find ourselves automatically in a critical section because we cannot be interrupted again because the bit is cleared. The programmer can, if he wants, re-enable IRQs inside IRQ code itself to allow interrupt nesting. But it has to be wanted and meditated.
Now, inside portASM.S, at the end of 'FreeRTOS_IRQ_Handler' assembly function, a call to 'vTaskSwitchContextConst' is made if the variable 'ulPortYieldRequired' was set by someone while executing the interrupt. Before branching to that function, a 'CPSID i' instruction was placed to ensure that interrupts are disabled in case someone re-enabled it. Inside 'vTaskSwitchContext', there is the macro 'traceTASK_SWITCHED_OUT' that gets populated when tracing is enabled.
The bug is right there.. If the macro is populated and inside that macro there is a matching call to 'ulPortSetInterruptMask' and 'vPortClearInterruptMask', a race condition can occure is there is a OS Tick timer interrupt waiting at the interrupt controller's door. Upon calling 'vTaskSwitchContext', the interrupts are not masked in the interrupt controller, the only barrier against the CPU servicing that tick interrupt while already performing the function is that the IRQ Enable bit cleared. 'ulPortSetInterruptMask'
does what's its supposed to do, but doesn't take into account the IRQ Enable bit in CPSR. Wheter or not the bit was cleared, the function sets it at the end. When calling the matching 'vPortClearInterruptMask', the function clears the interrupt mask in the interrupt controller. Because the IRQ Enable bit (that was cleared) has been set no matter what in 'ulPortSetInterruptMask', the CPU services the OS Tick Interrupt right away.
The bug is there : instead of completing the 'vTaskSwitchContext' function, the CPU re-enters the switch context path right after 'traceTASK_SWITCHED_OUT' thus corrupting the CPU state and eventually triggering either an undefined instruction, data or instruction abort.
* Update port.c
Error on my part, this is the right inline asm code to retreive CPSR register
* Update port.c
Forgot an * while writing comment..
The TEX, Shareable (S), Cacheable (C) and Bufferable (B) bits define
the memory type, and where necessary the cacheable and shareable
properties of the memory region.
The default values for these bits, as configured in our MPU ports, are
sometimes not suitable for application. One such example is when the MCU
has a cache, the application writer may not want to mark the memory as
shareable to avoid disabling the cache. This change allows the
application writer to override default vales for TEX, S C and B bits for
Flash and RAM in their FreeRTOSConfig.h. The following two new
configurations are introduced:
- configTEX_S_C_B_FLASH
- configTEX_S_C_B_SRAM
If undefined, the default values for the above configurations are
TEX=000, S=1, C=1, B=1. This ensures backward compatibility.

The expected behaviour of portIS_PRIVILEGED is:
- return 0 if the processor is not running privileged.
- return 1 if the processor is running privileged.
Some TI ports do not return 1 when the processor is running privileged
causing the following check to fail: if( xRunningPrivileged != pdTRUE )
This commit change the check to: if( xRunningPrivileged == pdFALSE ). It
ensures that the check is successful even on the ports which return incorrect
value from portIS_PRIVILEGED when the processor is running privileged.
