scripts/check_clang.sh globbed ports_module/*/gnu/src, which does not exist --
the module ports keep their assembly in module_manager/src. The [ -d ] guard
skipped it in silence, so 116 assembly files across nine Arm module ports were
assembled by no check, with either compiler, in the script whose own comments
state three times that "a port that is simply absent from the count reads as
covered". Stage 1 goes from 724 of 724 to 840 of 840; the feature-macro stage
had the same gap and goes from 412 files to 469.
Correcting the path exposed five defects, and only one of them was a build
failure. The other four assembled cleanly and did the wrong thing, because GAS
runs the C preprocessor on .S and not on .s:
ports_smp/cortex_a7_smp/gnu/src/tx_thread_smp_unprotect.s, the only .s in a
directory of twenty-one .S, ignored all four of its own feature macros. It
wrote the caller's LR into the protection structure on every unprotect -- a
store guarded by TX_MPCORE_DEBUG_ENABLE -- sent an unconditional SEV, and
returned through both BX lr and MOV pc, lr. Its cortex_a5_smp and
cortex_a9_smp siblings are .S.
ports_module/cortex_m33/.../tx_thread_stack_build.s emitted both arms of an
#ifdef TX_SINGLE_MODE_SECURE, so the non-secure LR value overwrote the secure
one and the secure build got the wrong frame.
ports_module/cortex_m23/.../tx_thread_context_{save,restore}.S carried the
POP {r0, lr} that check_clang.sh's own comment describes as the reason the
feature-macro stage exists. The 16-bit Thumb POP takes r0-r7 and pc only.
The identical fix already sits in ports/cortex_m23/gnu/src; the module copy
never got it because nothing scanned it.
ports_module/cortex_m23/.../tx_thread_secure_stack_initialize.S used MOV
rather than MOVS for an 8-bit immediate, latent behind TX_SINGLE_MODE_SECURE.
Both siblings in the same directory already use MOVS.
ports_module/cortex_a7/gnu/module_manager/src is the one that failed to
assemble, on GCC 14.3 as well as on LLVM: #define SYS_MODE was never
expanded, so #SYS_MODE reached the assembler as an undefined symbol.
Twenty-nine .s files under gnu trees are renamed to .S. Every one of them is
already named .S by the build scripts that compile it, so this repairs those
scripts rather than churning them -- ports_module/cortex_a7's build_threadx.bat
names all eighteen with a capital S, and works today only on a case-insensitive
filesystem. Renaming rather than converting the #defines to GNU assignments is
what fixes the #ifdef blocks as well as the constants; the assignments would
have fixed two files and left twenty-seven silently ignoring their macros.
Files with no preprocessor directives are left as .s: they are not broken, and
check_ports.sh gains a check that keeps them that way. Only the gnu trees are
checked there -- the IAR, Arm Compiler 5 and Keil assemblers preprocess .s
themselves, and about three hundred files in this repository rely on that.
Verified with both toolchains on the same tree: 840 of 840 assembled by
ATfE 22.1.0 and by arm-gnu-toolchain 14.3.rel1, all five stages of
check_clang.sh green, and check_ports.sh green including the reproducibility
check. The new check was shown to fail by planting a copy of the file it was
written for.
No regression test accompanies this. The assembly it covers is executed by no
host test, and the check itself going from 724 files to 840 is the coverage
AGENTS.md asks for -- together with the new check_ports.sh section, which is
what stops the class recurring.

* Removed generated build output and stopped two scripts naming deleted archives
Three kinds of file in the tree are produced by a build rather than written by
hand, and one pair of scripts still links archives that were deleted years ago.
Keil writes ThreadX_Library.plg on every build; the two committed copies are
HTML build logs from someone's machine. Code Composer generates the makefiles
under ports/c667x/ccs/example_build/tx/Release from the project files beside
them, so makefile, objects.mk, sources.mk, subdir_rules.mk, subdir_vars.mk and
ccsObjs.opt are all regenerated output.
The arm9 and arm11 sample builds link libc.a, libgcc.a and, for arm11,
libnosys.a from their own example_build directories. Those archives were removed
in 6.1.10 under "Removal of unneeded files", and libnosys.a in #594, but the link
lines were never updated, so both examples fail immediately with
arm-none-eabi-ld: cannot find libc.a: No such file or directory
Link through the compiler driver instead, the shape every other example in the
tree uses since #594: the driver supplies libc and libgcc, and SYSCALL_LIB is
already defined in both scripts.
That does not make either example link, and the fix stops short of that on
purpose. With the archives no longer named, both now fail on
undefined reference to `_fini'
because their linker scripts define the .init and .fini sections but not the
_init and _fini symbols, which live in crti.o and crtn.o and are omitted by
-nostartfiles. Making those two old cores build is a separate question from
removing a stale reference, so they stay in EXAMPLES_EXPECTED_TO_FAIL, with the
comment there corrected: it blamed newlib multilib packaging, which is true of
cortex_r4 and cortex_r5 but was never the reason for arm9 and arm11.
Reproduced throughout with arm-none-eabi-gcc 13.2.1.

* Removed the Keil per-user state files and ignored them
Every Keil project in the tree carried a second file holding per-user state:
25 .uvoptx beside the 25 .uvprojx, 9 .uvopt beside the 9 .uvproj, and 3 .uvgui
multi-project workspace files. uVision rewrites all of them whenever a project is
opened, so they record whoever last had it open rather than anything about the
port: debugger selection, breakpoints, watch windows, window geometry.
Nothing in the tree references them, and every affected directory keeps its
.uvprojx or .uvproj, which is the file that actually describes the project.
Add ignore rules so they do not come back the next time someone opens a project
and commits.
1.4 MB across 37 files.

The Arm Development Studio launch configurations and the IAR project files
carried absolute paths from the machines they were last opened on: four
individuals' home directories, a Broadcom support build tree, and directories
such as C:\release\threadx, C:\temp1702\tx and D:\threadx. They are published in
the repository and none of them resolves for anyone else.
In the launch files all of it is saved session state, which files that were never
opened in a debugger simply do not have:
breakpoints 72 files, saved breakpoints anchored to source
paths under cortex_a35 on one machine. Emptied
rather than deleted, matching the 27 launch files
that already carry an empty list.
scripts_view_script_links 70 files, a scripts view cache. The script the
launch actually runs is named one line earlier
through ${workspace_loc:...}, which is portable.
substitutePath 65 files, source lookup remapping. 30 map a path
to itself, and the rest point at one machine's
copy of libgloss or a build directory.
TREE_NODE_PROPERTIES 39 files, which rows the variables view had
expanded.
DebugCommandLine.History 2 files, the debug console command history,
including a typed absolute path.
The two IAR cases are not session state and are corrected rather than removed:
IarchiveOutput 23 files. The librarian output path pointed at
another machine, so the library was written
outside the project. Set to ###Unitialized###,
which 86 other option blocks already use, letting
IAR derive $EXE_DIR$\$PROJ_FNAME$.a.
IlinkIcfFile 1 file. The linker configuration file is load
bearing, so the file name is kept and the path
made project relative, as 33 other option blocks
spell it.
Seven of the files are ports_arch templates, so the generators would otherwise
have copied the paths back.
Verified: all 162 launch and IAR project files in the tree parse as well-formed
XML afterwards, no tracked launch or project file mentions any of the four user
names, and scripts/check_ports.sh passes, so the templates and their generated
copies still agree.

The Cortex-M ports under ports/ are generated. scripts/copy_armv7_m.sh copies
one tx_port.h and the per tool sources to fifteen M3, M4 and M7 targets, and
scripts/copy_armv8_m.sh does the same for nine M33, M55 and M85 targets. The
ports_arch_check workflow runs both scripts and fails if the tree is not
reproducible, so those copies are meant never to be edited directly.
They were. Every Cortex-M fix since #523 was applied to the generated copies
and not to the source, so the source fell behind and the check went red:
running the three scripts on dev changes 35 files. The check triggers only on
pull requests targeting master, which is why nothing caught it while the fixes
were merged into dev.
Left alone, the next run of these scripts would have reverted three separate
pieces of work: the memory barriers and clobbers from #523, the correction of
the IAR assembly header to use the assembler's own comment syntax, and the move
of tx_initialize_low_level.S into example_build for the M33, M55 and M85 GNU
ports from #514.
Bring the sources up to what the ports carry today, and regenerate. Two
behavioural changes come with that, both deliberate. The barriers from #523
reach the ac5 and keil variants of M3, M4 and M7, which were outside the scope
of that fix and never received it. The barrier that follows restoring the
interrupt posture, which #523 gave only to the GNU ports because GNU was the
only toolchain that could be tested, now applies to every tool; the identical
asm statement already shipped in the AC6 and IAR ports, so this adds a pipeline
flush rather than any new compiler exposure.
Regenerating also drops a stray #endif at the end of the Cortex-M85 IAR
tx_port.h, added by #523, which left that header with one more #endif than #if
and unable to compile. Every other ARMv8-M port was balanced.
Verified that the scripts are idempotent afterwards, that ports_arch_check
would pass, that no port loses a barrier or a clobber, that every regenerated
header is preprocessor balanced, and that every Cortex-M port covered by the
two scripts now carries the entry barrier.

* Add SysTick counter reset in Cortex-M ports
The SysTick counter value (SYST_CVR @0xE000E018) is indeterminate after
reset. Without clearing it prior to enabling the counter, the first tick
interval becomes unpredictable.
* Fixed missing comment and added generated-by header in Cortex-M0/AC6 port
Added the missing inline comment on the LDR r1, =0 instruction
(Build value for SysTick reset) and the required AI-generated
attribution comment under the copyright header.
