+ Introduce xSemaphoreGenericGiveFromISR() as an optimisation when giving semaphores and mutexes from an interrupt.
Demo applications:
+ Update IntSemTest.c to provide more code coverage in xSemaphoreGenericGiveFromISR().
+ Ensure the MMU is turned on in the RZ IAR demo. It was already on in the RZ ARM demo.
- Re-introduce the ability to give a mutex from an ISR.
Common demo code:
- Add additional tests into the GenQTest files for priority inheritance and using a mutex from an ISR.
+ Update the RZ IAR project so it targets the RZ RSK rather than custom hardware.
+ Update the RZ ARM/DS-5 project so it targets the RZ RSK rather than custom hardware.
+ Updated RX64M demos to use the new iodefine.h naming.
Cortex-A9 port related:
+ Update IAR, ARM and GCC Cortex-A9 port layers to include a 'task exit error' function which is called if a task attempts to incorrectly exit its implementing function.
+ Moved the instruction which switches into system mode out of the restore context macro, as it is only needed when starting the first task.
Core kernel files related:
+ Ensure there are no references to the mutexes held count when mutexes are excluded from the build.
- Add additional tests to GenQTest.c to test the updated priority inheritance mechanism.
- Slightly increase some delays in recmutex.c to prevent it reporting false errors in high load test cases.
SAMA5D3 Xplained IAR demo:
- Remove space being allocated for stacks that are not used.
- Remove explicit enabling of interrupts in ISR handers as this is now done from the central ISR callback before the individual handers are invoked.
- Reduce both the allocated heap size and the stack allocated to each task.
- Enable I cache.
- Slight improvement to the save context macro.
- Remove some #warning remarks.
- Enable interrupts before calling the ISR handler rather than in the ISR handler.
- Add in the assert when a task attempts to exit its implementing function without deleting itself.
- Remove obsolete code from the context switch asm code (obsoleted by the fact that there is no mask register).
- Attempt to make code more generic by using definitions for additional register addresses.
- Add full interrupt nesting tests.
- Add additional critical section/context switching tests.
- Set interrupt priorities so everything can run at once without any software watchdog errors.
- Re-enable interrupts in each IRQ handler.
- Add in run-time stats.
Add additional asserts to the Keil CM3 and CM4F ports (other CM3/4 ports already updated).
Add the additional yield necessitated by the mutex held count to the case when configUSE_QUEUE_SETS is 0.
Remove some apparently obsolete code from xTaskPriorityDisinherit() (a task cannot be both blocked and giving bac a mutex at the same time].
Update the new "mutex held count" increment and decrement functions to allow mutexes to be created before the scheduler is started.
Helper updates to allow a count of the number of mutexes held to be added.
Updates to the CCS Cortex-R4 implementation necessitated by a change in compiler semantics.
Update PIC32MX and MZ ports to assert if a non ISR safe function is called from an ISR.
