Lab22: RTOS

預期目標

• 在 QEMU 模擬的 STM32 環境中，嘗試執行 FreeRTOS<http://www.freertos.org/>_ 並且學習相關的操作
  • 熟悉 FreeRTOS 的內部運作機制
• 學習 memory mangement
  • 實作 malloc 和驗證其功能

FreeRTOS

• The Architecture of Open Source Applications: FreeRTOS<http://www.aosabook.org/en/freertos.html>_
  • 簡體中文翻譯<http://www.ituring.com.cn/article/4063>_

FreeRTOS: Memory management

• Memory Management<http://www.freertos.org/a00111.html>_
• The RTOS kernel allocates RAM each time a task, queue, mutex, software timer or semaphore is created. The standard C library malloc() and free() functions can sometimes be used for this purpose, but …
  • they are not always available on embedded systems,
  • they take up valuable code space,
  • they are not thread safe, and
  • they are not deterministic (the amount of time taken to execute the function will differ from call to call)
