CV-Bowen opened a new pull request, #18165:
URL: https://github.com/apache/nuttx/pull/18165
## Summary
Refactor rpmsg internal APIs by moving them from the public header
`include/nuttx/rpmsg/rpmsg.h` to a new private header `drivers/rpmsg/rpmsg.h`.
The following internal APIs are moved:
- `rpmsg_get_rdev_by_rpmsg()` - inline helper function
- `rpmsg_modify_signals()` - signal modification
- `rpmsg_ns_bind()` / `rpmsg_ns_unbind()` - namespace binding
- `rpmsg_device_created()` / `rpmsg_device_destory()` - device lifecycle
- `rpmsg_register()` / `rpmsg_unregister()` - driver registration
These APIs are only used within the rpmsg driver implementation and should
not be exposed to external modules. This improves API encapsulation and reduces
the public interface surface.
## Impact
- **Stability**: No functional changes, pure refactoring
- **Compatibility**: No breaking changes for external users - only internal
APIs are moved
- **Code Quality**: Better separation between public and private interfaces
## Testing
Build test with QEMU ARM64 dual-core configuration:
```bash
# Build server (master core)
cmake -B cmake_out/v8a_server -DBOARD_CONFIG=qemu-armv8a:v8a_server -GNinja
cmake --build cmake_out/v8a_server
# Build proxy (slave core)
cmake -B cmake_out/v8a_proxy -DBOARD_CONFIG=qemu-armv8a:v8a_proxy -GNinja
cmake --build cmake_out/v8a_proxy
```
Both builds completed successfully, confirming the refactoring doesn't break
the rpmsg subsystem.
Runtime verification with QEMU ivshmem-based rpmsg communication:
