idle thread
==============
| idle thread 是一個 CPU 實現 power saving 的機制
| 在 ChibiOS/RT 中， idle thread 的優先度被設為最低，意即只要有其他的 Thread 在跑， idle thread 就不可能被執行到
| 
| 
| In ChibiOS-RT-Community / os / kernel / include / chsys.h

.. code-block:: c

    #if !CH_NO_IDLE_THREAD || defined(__DOXYGEN__)
    /**
    * @brief   Idle thread working area.
    */
    WORKING_AREA(_idle_thread_wa, PORT_IDLE_THREAD_STACK_SIZE);

    /**
    * @brief   This function implements the idle thread infinite loop.
    * @details The function puts the processor in the lowest power mode capable
    *          to serve interrupts.<br>
    *          The priority is internally set to the minimum system value so
    *          that this thread is executed only if there are no other ready
    *          threads in the system.
    *
    * @param[in] p the thread parameter, unused in this scenario
    */
    void _idle_thread(void *p) {
      (void)p;
      chRegSetThreadName("idle");
      while (TRUE) {
        port_wait_for_interrupt(); //空函式
        IDLE_LOOP_HOOK();
      }
    }

| 在 `chSysInit()<chSysInit()>`_ 函式的最後， 建立了 idle thread
