RTX Kernel Port M3

Hello,

I am porting the RTX Kernel to a Cortex-M3 device and ran into a difficulty.

I have set up 2 tasks to toggle 2 LEDs to see if my tasks are running as expected.
As below.

/*---------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Task 4 'blink_P2': Blink LED P2 *---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
__task void blink_P2 (void)
{ os_itv_set (40); for (;;) { os_itv_wait (); Toggle_P2(); }
} /*---------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Task 5 'blink_P3': Blink LED P3 *---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
__task void blink_P3 (void)
{ os_itv_set (40); for (;;) { os_itv_wait (); Toggle_P3(); }
}

If the time delay is set the same for both tasks then there is no problem.
Both tasks toggle each LED at 40mS. This works.

However if I change the time delay on one task,(for example the second task to 50mS) then both tasks now take several seconds to toggle the LEDs.

I have ported the RTX kernel previously to an ARM7 core without difficulty but cannot see the problem on the Cortex-M3 ?

Can someone advise please ?

thanks!

    All series of PADAUK Proudcts are developed by FPPA technology. FPPA (Field Programmable Processor Array) is the technology to realize the truly parallel processing, multi-cores concept in one die. In FPPA architecture, all the processing cores can run its own program independently. Moreover, due to its supreme architecture, the power consumption will keep low.

    One of the English Datasheets:

    It seems that, some people prefer to use hardware power to solve the parallel processing problem. So they build an 8-core MCU (Field Programmable Processor Array), with such FPPA MCU, there is no latency for multi-tasking.
