This commit backports vTaskDelete() behavior from FreeRTOS v9.0.0 which
allows for the immediate freeing of task memory if the task being deleted
is not currently running and not pinned to the other core. This commit also
fixes a bug in prvCheckTasksWaitingTermination which prevented the
Idle Task from cleaning up all tasks awaiting deletion. Each iteration of the Idle
Task should traverse the xTasksWaitingTermination list and clean up all tasks
not pinned to the other core. The previous implementation would cause
prvCheckTasksWaitingTermination to return when encountering a task
pinned to the other core whilst traversing the xTasksWaitingTermination list.
The test case for vTaskDelete() has been updated to test for the bugfix and
backported deletion behavior.
This commit backports the following features from FreeRTOS v9.0.0
- uxSemaphoreGetCount()
- vTimerSetTimerId(), xTimerGetPeriod(), xTimerGetExpiryTime()
- xTimerCreateStatic()
- xEventGroupCreateStatic()
- uxSemaphoreGetCount()
Functions backported previously
- xTaskCreateStatic()
- xQueueCreateStatic()
- xSemaphoreCreateBinaryStatic(), xSemaphoreCreateCountingStatic()
- xSemaphoreCreateMutexStatic(), xSemaphoreCreateRecursiveMutexStatic()
- pcQueueGetName()
- vTaskSetThreadLocalStoragePointer()
- pvTaskGetThreadLocalStoragePointer()
Unit tests were also written for the functions above (except for pcQueueGetName
which is tested in a separate Queue Registry MR). The original tlsp and del cb test case
was deleted and integrated into the test cases of this MR.
Previously if multiple tasks had been added to xPendingReadyList for the CPU, only the first one was resumed.
Includes a test case for resuming multiple (pending) tasks on xTaskResumeAll().
Document the limitation that while scheduler is suspended on one CPU, it can't wake tasks on either CPU.
Added documentation about the ESP-IDF changes to FreeRTOS.
The documentation covers changes to the following FreeRTOS aspects.
- Task Creation
- Affects on scheduling (Task skipping, scheduler suspension, tick synchronicity)
- Critical sections and disabling interrupts
- Thread Local Storage Pointers and deletion callbacks
- Configuring ESP-IDF FreeRTOS
