Dear all,
I have to work with RL-RTX, and I have first look at the RTX traffic example. There is something I do not understand about task switching. Some years ago, I was working on a home-made RTOS, and the switch from a task to another could only occured at "kernel time" (that means at every time tick). If a task only used 50% of a tick time, the rest of the tick time was for "idle", and next task only starts after the kernel time at the end of the tick. With the traffic example, it seems that when a task is delayed (by instance with os_dly_wait) during a tick time, another "ready" task can directly start, without waiting for the end of the tick time when the kernel will run. Is it right? If yes, can you explain me how it works? (maybe the kernel runs to switch the tasks even if the time tick is not finished?) Thanks ! Best regards
