* Add XMOS XCore ports Some minor modifications are also made to the kernel to support the XCore compiler's automatic stack size calculation. * Update kernel to support SMP The XMOS XCore ports are also updated to support SMP. * Fix compiler warnings in xcore ports The port set and clear interrupt mask from ISR macros were removed from the ports so that the default macros found in FreeRTOS.h are used instead. The default macros do not result in warnings when they are used. * Remove inline function from timers.h Inline function converted to macro. This should now build when optimizations are off and inlining is disabled. * Fix compiler warnings in xcore ports and tasks.c * fixed documentation for ulTaskNotifyTake() and ulTaskNotifyTakeIndexed() * spelling fixes for tasks.c Co-authored-by: Michael Bruno <mikeb@xmos.com> |

Getting started
This repository contains FreeRTOS kernel source/header files and kernel ports only. This repository is referenced as a submodule in FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS repository, which contains pre-configured demo application projects under FreeRTOS/Demo
directory.
The easiest way to use FreeRTOS is to start with one of the pre-configured demo application projects. That way you will have the correct FreeRTOS source files included, and the correct include paths configured. Once a demo application is building and executing you can remove the demo application files, and start to add in your own application source files. See the FreeRTOS Kernel Quick Start Guide for detailed instructions and other useful links.
Additionally, for FreeRTOS kernel feature information refer to the Developer Documentation, and API Reference.
Getting help
If you have any questions or need assistance troubleshooting your FreeRTOS project, we have an active community that can help on the FreeRTOS Community Support Forum.

Repository structure
-
The root of this repository contains the three files that are common to every port - list.c, queue.c and tasks.c. The kernel is contained within these three files. croutine.c implements the optional co-routine functionality - which is normally only used on very memory limited systems.
-
The
./portable
directory contains the files that are specific to a particular microcontroller and/or compiler. See the readme file in the./portable
directory for more information. -
The
./include
directory contains the real time kernel header files.
Code Formatting
FreeRTOS files are formatted using the "uncrustify" tool. The configuration file used by uncrustify can be found in the FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS repository.
Spelling
lexicon.txt contains words that are not traditionally found in an English dictionary. It is used by the spellchecker to verify the various jargon, variable names, and other odd words used in the FreeRTOS code base. If your pull request fails to pass the spelling and you believe this is a mistake, then add the word to lexicon.txt. Note that only the FreeRTOS Kernel source files are checked for proper spelling, the portable section is ignored.
