28//        Generic Thread Context API definition (implementation in hal_context.c)
29//
30// A thread context is defined by the two (core specific) structures hal_cpu_context_t
31// and hal_fpu_context_t, defined in hal_context.c file, that are accessed with generic
32// void* pointers stored in the thread descriptor.
33// - the "hal_cpu_context_t" struct saves the CPU registers values at context switch.
34// - the "hal_fpu_context_t" struct saves the FPU registers values at FPU switch.

65 * 2) It patches four slots of this remote child CPU context:
66 *    - the c0_th   slot is set to the child thread descriptor pointer.
67 *    - the sp_29   slot is set to the child kernel stack pointer.
68 *    - the c0_sr   slot is set to kernel mode with IRQ disabled.
69 *    - the c2_ptpr slot is set to the child process GPT value.
70 * 3) It copies the content of the parent thread kernel_stack, to the child thread
71 *    kernel_stack, because the COW mechanism is not available on architectures where
