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!
bad maths on the last post , 40 * 1000uS = 40mS.
