Fixes#61
Object names are exposed as writable pointers throughout the kernel API, which
rejects string literals in C++ and lets a caller modify a name an object still
holds. Information services return those names through writable double
pointers.
Create services, control blocks, information services, the module manager and
trace registration now preserve const qualification, behind
TX_ENABLE_CONST_NAMES. The option defaults to off, so a build that says nothing
gets exactly the types it got before. It is opt-in rather than opt-out because
it changes the type of a public struct field: application code that copies a
name into a writable CHAR * stops compiling, which is a reasonable thing to ask
of a minor release and not of a patch one. Issue #780 tracks making it the
default in 6.6.
Two things the option reaches that its own call sites do not.
TX_CHAR_TO_UCHAR_POINTER_CONVERT has exactly two users, both of them reading an
object name in _tx_trace_object_register, and every form of that macro but the
MISRA one casts the qualifier away without saying so; the conversion is now
const in and const out, so nothing launders const to make the build pass. The
FreeRTOS adapter holds the name pcTaskGetName retrieves in a TX_NAME_CONST
pointer so that it tracks whichever declaration tx_thread_info_get has, and
keeps its writable return type through an explicit MISRA C:2012 Rule 11.8 cast,
because that signature is part of the FreeRTOS API.
Default build: all seven host configurations and all five SMP configurations
build with zero warnings and pass -- 113/113 on five host configurations,
100/100 on the two MISRA builds, 118/118 on SMP, 3/3 FreeRTOS. With
TX_ENABLE_CONST_NAMES set, the host default and both MISRA configurations, the
SMP trace configuration and the FreeRTOS adapter build with zero warnings and
pass.

The per-edit disclosure named the product and model, so every agent and every
model version appended another line. 74 files carried two to four of them, and
the same five products had accumulated 13 spellings -- Copilot against GitHub
Copilot, Claude Sonnet 4.6 against claude-sonnet-4.6, four spellings of Codex.
Twenty assembly lines carried a doubled comment marker, `; //` or `@ //`.
Every file now carries exactly one line, fixed text naming no product:
Portions of this file were generated with AI assistance.
It is written with the comment character that file already uses, so the `;`
and `@` assembly files keep theirs and the doubled markers are gone. Precise
attribution stays on the commit, where the Assisted-by trailer is per-change,
dated and attached to the diff it describes. A header line cannot hold that
record honestly, because the code it names gets rewritten and the line stays.
A file-level flag answers whether; the history answers who.
Comment-only. 455 files, 455 insertions and 574 deletions: every removed line
was a disclosure line, every added line is the fixed text, and no file is left
with zero or with more than one. `scripts/check_ports.sh` passes, including the
reproducibility check that would catch a ports_arch master and its generated
copies drifting apart. Recompiled against dev, every file that builds without a
vendor toolchain gives a byte-identical object: 19 of 19 C files under common,
100 of 100 GNU assembly files, and all 16 assemblable files whose comment
marker changed. The 10 remaining marker changes are ac5 and IAR sources where
`;` already started the comment and only the redundant `//` was removed.

Fixes#469
`_tx_thread_smp_remap_solution_find` indexes `_tx_thread_smp_schedule_list` with
the lowest set bit of the core maps it is given. Every caller already masks
those maps with `TX_THREAD_SMP_CORE_MASK`, but the compiler cannot see it, so
when the function is inlined into `_tx_thread_system_suspend` at `-O2` GCC
assumes a bit number as high as 31 and reports an out-of-bounds subscript.
`-Werror` turns that into a build failure.
Masked the three incoming maps at the top of the function, in both the inline
version in `common_smp/inc/tx_thread.h` and the twin in
`tx_thread_smp_utilities.c`. The masks are semantic no-ops, so scheduling is
unchanged, but the range is now visible to the optimizer. The first core queue
entry is also initialized, because the narrowed range lets GCC consider an empty
queue and warn about that instead.
Reproduced on the Cortex-A9 SMP port with arm-none-eabi-gcc 13.2.1, and clean
afterwards across -O2, -O3 and -Os and 2, 4 and 8 core configurations. SMP suite
116/116.

The binary search in _tx_thread_stack_analyze() accepted a probe location as
unused as soon as a single word still held TX_STACK_FILL. A word inside an
otherwise used region that simply was never written - the padding of a
partially initialized local array, for example - therefore made the search
move away from the real boundary and report far less stack usage than the
thread had actually consumed, which in turn kept the stack guard from firing.
The probe now walks down from the candidate location and requires
TX_THREAD_STACK_ANALYZE_FILL_WORDS consecutive fill words before it treats
the location as unused, stopping early at the lowest location already known
to hold the fill pattern. The new macro defaults to eight words and can be
overridden in tx_port.h; setting it to one restores the previous behavior.
Holes shorter than the configured run no longer mislead the search, and the
result is unchanged for stacks that contain no such holes.

TX_THREAD_STACK_CHECK detects a broken stack, calls the error handler, and then
tests whether the word below the high-water mark still holds the fill pattern.
On the SMP side that second test is a plain if, so a thread whose stack has
just been reported as corrupt goes straight on into _tx_thread_stack_analyze().
Analyzing a stack that is known to be broken is what that function is least
able to do. It binary searches between stack_lowest and stack_highest for the
fill pattern and then scans forward with
while (*stack_ptr == TX_STACK_FILL)
which has no bound of its own and no reason to terminate once the pattern it is
looking for is no longer where the pointers say it should be. The non-SMP copy
was given an else for exactly this reason. The SMP copy never was, and the two
macros are otherwise identical, line for line, so this single keyword was the
whole of the divergence.
The path is live in CI rather than theoretical. Instrumenting the internal
handler and running all 110 binaries of stack_checking_build shows
threadx_thread_stack_checking_test reaching it four times per run, on a thread
whose stack the test corrupts on purpose. Every one of those four currently
falls through into the analyze it should be skipping.
This is not the timeout the SMP suite has been failing on.
threadx_thread_priority_change never reaches the error handler at all, so
whatever wedges it in teardown is something else. Worth closing regardless: a
runaway scan inside stack analysis would present as a test that stops producing
output and is eventually killed, which is the shape that has been costing this
suite whole runs, and it would be indistinguishable in the log from the hang
already being chased.
Verified on both configurations that define TX_ENABLE_STACK_CHECKING.
threadx_thread_stack_checking_test, the one test that exercises the changed
branch, passes 60 consecutive runs, and stack_checking_build and
stack_checking_rand_fill_build both pass 110 of 110, repeated at the
parallelism CI uses.
