Introduce xPortRunning variable into Win32 simulator port layer.
Add port optimised task selection macro for the GCC Win32 port layer (the MSVC version has had one for a while).
Ensure the event list item value does not get modified by code in tasks.c (priority inheritance, or priority change) when it is in use by the event group implementation.
Reset the expected block time variable when a task is suspended or deleted in case the value held in the variables was associated with the task just suspended or deleted.
Add a task pre-delete hook to allow the insertion of any port specific clean up when a task is deleted.
Increase use of 'const' qualifiers.
Add vPortCloseRunningThread() into the Win32 port layer to attempt to allow Windows threads to be closed more gracefully when a task deletes itself.
Correct header comments in the UARTCommandConsole.c file used in the SmartFusion2 demo.
Exercise the new xQueueSpacesAvailable() function in the MSVC demo.
Add defaults for the new traceMALLOC and traceFREE trace macros.
Catch tasks trying to exit their functions in the Cortex-M0 ports.
Add additional comments to timers.c in response to a support forum question.
Initialise _impure_ptr prior to the first task being started.
Prior to V7.5.0 a yield pended in the tick hook would have occurred during the same tick interrupt. Return pdTRUE from xTaskIncrementTick() if a yield is pending to revert to that behaviour.
Relegate the vTaskList() and vTaskGetRunTimeStats() functions to "sample" functions demonstrating how to use xTaskGetSystemState() to generate human readable status information.
Introduce and default configINCLUDE_STATS_FORMATTING_FUNCTIONS which must now be defined to use vTaskList() and vTaskGetRunTimeStats().
Correct the header comments in het.c and het.h (RM48/TMS570 demo) which were corrupt.
Correct version numbers in RX63N Renesas compiler demo.
Ensure stacks set up for tasks in the RX200 port layer end on 8 byte boundaries (was 4, which didn't matter but didn't match the definition).
Replaced unqualified (unsigned) in calls to standard functions with (size_t).
Add eTaskConfirmSleepModeStatus() (not yet tested).
Only call prvQueueUnregisterQueue() when a queue or semaphore is deleted if configQUEUE_REGISTRY_SIZE > 0.
Back out change that checks the configUSE_PORT_OPTMISED_TASK_SELECTION value before uxPriorityUsedOnEntry is set in vTaskPrioritySet as it generated more warnings (with other compilers) than it fixed.
Made queue function prototypes consistent so xQueueHandle parameters are always xQueue, and xQUEUE * parameters pxQueue.
Likewise make the task API using px for pointers to TCBs, and just x for task handles.
Heap_x functions now automatically align the start of the heap without using the portDOUBLE union member.
Queue.c now includes queue.h.
