The base firmware and an FDPIC module disagree about what a function
pointer is. Firmware is not built FDPIC, so to it a pointer is a code
address and it branches there. A module passes the address of a two word
descriptor instead, because its code and data are placed independently and
a bare code address would leave the callee unable to find its own data. A
firmware routine that takes a callback therefore branches into the
module's data segment and faults.
So the ten entry points that can be handed a callback by a module resolve
the descriptor before storing or branching to it: qsort, bsearch,
pthread_create, signal, sigaction, task_create and task_create_with_stack,
task_spawn, pthread_once, scandir, and mq_notify and timer_create with
SIGEV_THREAD.
Which one resolves matters as much as that one does. Resolving twice would
take an already resolved code address for a descriptor and read two words
from the instruction stream, so each pointer is resolved exactly once, at
the outermost point that sees it. signal() passes its argument through
untouched because sigaction() and then nxsig_action() will resolve it,
which covers a module calling sigaction() directly as well. qsort() is
split so that the public entry resolves and the recursive implementation
does not. scandir() resolves its filter but not its comparison function,
which it hands to qsort().
Whether a caller is a module at all is asked of the PIC base register,
which up_initial_state() sets only for a task that has a D-Space. A plain
kernel task therefore reads zero and is left alone.
SIGEV_THREAD is the case the register cannot answer, because the callback
runs later on a work queue worker that carries no module's base at all.
The base is captured instead when the notification is registered, in the
module's own context, and installed around the call.
All of it is behind CONFIG_FDPIC, which defaults off. Built for
mps3-an547:picostest both ways; with it off the entry points compile to
what they were.

POSIX leaves the signedness of time_t and clock_t unspecified, but
mainstream implementations (Linux glibc/musl, the BSDs, macOS, RTEMS,
Zephyr's POSIX layer, Windows _time64) expose time_t as signed 64-bit.
NuttX has historically used uint64_t only because it was tied to the
CONFIG_SYSTEM_TIME64 knob; with that gone, switch:
time_t : uint64_t -> int64_t
clock_t : uint64_t -> int64_t
CLOCK_MAX: UINT64_MAX -> INT64_MAX
This lets (time_t)-1 sentinels, negative tick deltas, and host-side
headers behave as on every other POSIX system without source churn.
Headers updated:
- include/sys/types.h, include/limits.h, include/nuttx/clock.h
- include/nuttx/fs/hostfs.h (nuttx_time_t alias)
- include/nuttx/{mqueue.h,wdog.h,wqueue.h,timers/clkcnt.h}
Because clock_t is now signed 64-bit, the NuttX-internal sclock_t
alias becomes redundant: every sclock_t/SCLOCK_MAX use is folded
back to clock_t/CLOCK_MAX (notably in sched/wdog, sched/mqueue,
sched/sched, sched/clock, sched/timer, libs/libc/time, fs/vfs and
the drivers/arch consumers below).
Tick/period constants (NSEC_PER_SEC, USEC_PER_SEC, MSEC_PER_SEC,
SEC_PER_MIN, ...) in include/nuttx/clock.h are retyped from "long"
literals to INT64_C(...) so that 64-bit arithmetic no longer
depends on the host's long width.
Strip now-redundant (time_t)/(clock_t)/(unsigned long) casts and
unsigned-only branches across the tree:

This commit resolves a timing error caused by the round-up behavior in clock_time2ticks. In rare cases, this could lead to a two-tick increment within a single tick interval. To fix this, we introduced clock_time2ticks_floor, which guarantees the correct semantics for obtaining current system ticks.

1. Update all CMakeLists.txt to adapt to new layout
2. Fix cmake build break
3. Update all new file license
4. Fully compatible with current compilation environment(use configure.sh or cmake as you choose)
------------------
How to test
From within nuttx/. Configure:
cmake -B build -DBOARD_CONFIG=sim/nsh -GNinja
cmake -B build -DBOARD_CONFIG=sim:nsh -GNinja
cmake -B build -DBOARD_CONFIG=sabre-6quad/smp -GNinja
cmake -B build -DBOARD_CONFIG=lm3s6965-ek/qemu-flat -GNinja
(or full path in custom board) :
cmake -B build -DBOARD_CONFIG=$PWD/boards/sim/sim/sim/configs/nsh -GNinja
This uses ninja generator (install with sudo apt install ninja-build). To build:
$ cmake --build build
menuconfig:
$ cmake --build build -t menuconfig
--------------------------
2. cmake/build: reformat the cmake style by cmake-format
https://github.com/cheshirekow/cmake_format
$ pip install cmakelang
$ for i in `find -name CMakeLists.txt`;do cmake-format $i -o $i;done
$ for i in `find -name *\.cmake`;do cmake-format $i -o $i;done
