Right now, many users are trying out many different filesystems.
Unfortunately, this can leave partially written filesystems on disk
in various states.
A very common pattern for using embedded filesystems is to attempt
a mount, and on failure, format the storage with the filesystem.
Unfortunately, this simply doesn't work if you try to change the
filesystem being used on a piece of storage. Filesystems don't always
use the same regions of storage, and can leave enough metadata lying
around from old filesystems to trick a different mount into thinking a
valid filesystem exists on disk. The filesystems we have were never
designed to check for malicious modification and can't protect against
arbitrary changes.
That being said, it's caused enough problems for users, so as a
workaround this patch adds a disk erase to the FAT filesystem format.
The most common error happens when you use LittleFS, followed by FAT,
followed again by LittleFS.
No other combination of filesystem usage has shown a similar failure,
but it is possible after extensive filesystem use, so it is still
suggested to force a format of the storage when changing filesystems.
Add the OsEventObserver mechanism. A client interested in receiving
notifications on certain OS events can register to receive notifications
with osRegisterForOsEvents. This is useful for clients like the secure
memory allocator, which observes thread switching events in order to
swap in and out different memory allocator objects.
OsEventObserver objects expect a context to be maintained per thread on
their behalf. Add this context to the thread control block and extend
the thread creation functions with the ability to supply a context.
uVisor doesn't set the PSP of the target thread. The RTOS sets the PSP
of the target thread from the target thread's TCB. However, when
interrupts of higher priority than PendSV happen between the call to
uVisor to switch boxes, and the RTOS setting PSP, the uVisor vIRQ
interrupt handler will attempt to use an invalid PSP (the PSP from
before the box and thread switch). This leads to a crash. Make box and
thread switching atomic by disabling interrupts immediately before the
box switching until immediately after the new PSP is set.
CMSIS repo does not support pre-processor defines, hence multiple assembly
files are added for secure/non-secure and floating point tools.
Mbed OS tools support assembly file pre-processing, but the build system
does not support multiple assembly files for each target, hence updating
the assembly files.
mbed OS used older RTX4 version and with osThreadDef accepting only 3
parameters, to preserve compatibility we hardcode the 'instances'
parameter to 1.

In the reception data path, we needed to check the MCPS CONFIRMATION type
not the MCPS INDICATION type. Indication message type is for downlink message type
which can be UNCONFIRMED even if we have sent a CONFIRMED one, e.g., an ACK.
