This change allows users to call pthread_create(3) with the pthread_attr_t argument equal to NULL, or with the pthread_attr_t argument specifying a NULL stack but a custom stack size. If either of the above to requirements are met, then a stack will be heap-allocated internally and freed again after the thread has terminated. This makes the Zephyr implementation of pthread_create(3) more compliant with the normative spec. Fixes zephyrproject-rtos#25973 Signed-off-by: Christopher Friedt <[email protected]>

Still working on an item that this depends on. Has to do with treating user thread stacks as dynamic objects to avoid triggering the mmu / mpu. |
