Correct alignment issue in GCC Cortex-R port that was preventing full floating point usage in interrupts (other ports will be updated likewise).
Update the UltraScale R5 demo to test the GCC Cortex-A9 port layer modification mentioned on the line above.
+ Add configASSERT() into ARM Cortex-M ports to check the number of priority
bit settings.
+ Clear the 'control' register before starting ARM Cortex-M4F ports in case
the FPU is used before the scheduler is started. This just saves a few
bytes on the main stack as it prevents space being left for a later save
of FPU registers.
+ Added xSemaphoreGetMutexHolderFromISR().
+ Corrected use of portNVIC_PENDSVSET to portNVIC_PENDSVSET_BIT in MPU ports.
- Clear the SysTick current value register before starting the SysTick (only required if something uses SysTick before starting the scheduler).
- Ensure atomic operations are thread safe by executing clrex in the context switch.
+ Set flash wait states on MSP432 demos.
+ Remove use of obsolete IO library in PIC32 demos.
+ Remove obsolete item left on stack of first task to run in the Cortex-M0 ports.
+ Correct IA32 GCC vPortExitCritical() implementation when configMAX_API_CALL_INTERRUPT_PRIORITY == portMAX_PRIORITY.
Add RVDS ARM Cortex-M4F MPU port.
Increase the size of each buffer allocated to pbufs in the Microblaze lwIP demo to prevent pbufs chaining.
Use _start as the top of the stack for each Microblaze task, rather than NULL, as NULL was causing the Xilinx SDK to try and unwind the stack too far.
Tidy up CEC1302 demo.
Ensure bit 0 of the task address is clear when setting up stack of initial Cortex-M3/4/7 stacks (for strict compliance, although not practically necessary).
vTaskGetTaskInfo() changed to vTaskGetInfo() - with a macro added for backward compatibility.
Reduce the number of xTaskCreateStatic() parameters by having the function return the task handle, rather than pass the task handle out using a parameter. This is also consistent with other objectCreate() functions.
+ The MPU port is not supported in this revision number.
+ The documentation for the static allocation functions in the header files has not yet been updated for this revision.
Kernel updates:
+ Simplify the static allocation of objects implementation.
+ Introduce configSUPPORT_DYNAMIC_ALLOCATION in addition to the existing configSUPPORT_STATIC_ALLOCATION so FreeRTOS can be built without providing a heap at all.
Demo application updates:
+ Update the demos to take into account the new configSUPPORT_DYNAMIC_ALLOCATION constant.
+ Add an MSVC demo that only uses static allocation, and does not include a FreeRTOS heap.
+ Update the MSVC project to use both configSUPPORT_STATIC_ALLOCATION and configSUPPORT_DYNAMIC_ALLOCATION.
+ Update the MingW project to use only configSUPPORT_DYNAMIC_ALLOCATION.
- Remove the standard demo files that used the [long since deprecated] alternative API.
- Add standard demo task that tests the new xTaskAbortDelay() function.
- Update the Win32 Visual Studio project to use Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition.
- Rename the xGenericListItem TCB member to xStateListItem as it better describes the member's purpose.
Move structures used for static allocation of tasks and queues into FreeRTOS.h from their individual API header files.
Add SAME70 Xplained Atmel Studio project.
Update SAMV71 Atmel Studio project to use Studio 7.
Revert some changes to GenQTest.c standard demo task which only function correctly when a queue registry was used.
+ Add the pre-existing 64-bit Cortex-A53 port layer into the head revision of the main repository.
Demo application updates:
+ Update Zynq demo to use SDK version 2015.4
+ Add task static allocation standard demo to Zynq demo.
+ Make the XScuGic object accessible outside of the vConfigureTickInterrupt(), again in the Zynq demo.
+ Updated all ARM Cortex-M0 ports to include an additional ISB instruction as the scheduler is started.
Demo app files:
+ Fixex build issues in XMC1000 demos.
Kernel source changes:
- Added xTaskNotifyStateClear() API function.
- Added the GCC Cortex-R port (existed for a while) into the main download.
- Improved the IAR RL78 port's handling of different memory model combinations.
- Removed some compiler warnings in heap_5.c.
Demo app changes:
- Added example use of xTaskNotifyStateClear() to the TaskNotify standard demo tasks.
Add additional asserts into timers.c.
Trivial changes and changes in demo applications:
RX113 IAR project is not building and running.
Make FreeRTOS_SetupInterrupt() and FreeRTOS_ClearInterrupt() weak symbols in the Zynq SDK repository.
Correct typo in the port layer comments that was cut and paste into multiple files.
- Remove configASSERT() if a queue cannot be created, malloc failed hook will be called anyway.
Demo apps:
- RZ/T blinky demo working, but still lots to do to improve the port.
