asyncFreeRtos

Overview

The module implements the generic async API for FreeRTOS.

The main features of this implementation are:

• A configurable maximum number of tasks can be configured (as contexts) using simple initialization types that also allocate tasks stacks statically

• A context maps to a FreeRTOS task

• A context can be represented by a number (starting with 0). A higher context number indicates a higher prio of the corresponding task.

• The idle task has the reserved value (and priority) 0.

• The timer task is the task with the highest priority in the system.

• All other tasks priorities are between idle and timer task priority.

• All tasks can be configured by simple configuration objects that also statically allocate the required stacks.

• A hook concept for registering to task switch events is available

• A simple interface for synchronizing FreeRTOS with interrupts is available

• Implementations of legacy interfaces looper and ITimeoutManager2 are available for each configured task (they can be optionally disabled)
