Where I can find FreeRTOS documentation?

[ASPIE.5]

Hi all,

​Where I can find a complete ST FreeRTOS documentation?

Thanks

Hello,

Refer to the UM1722 User manual Developing Applications on STM32Cube with RTOS.

​Hi Imen,

thanks a lot, but UM1722 it's very poor guide in my opinion.

Let me better explain wit an example:

at page 16, you can find osThreadDef(LED1, LED_Thread1,

 but it' is not explained the prototype of the function, the same for osThreadCreate

Hello,

FreeRTOS is wrapped with ARM CMSIS-RTOS V1 APIs. Thread management documentation can be found here:

https://www.keil.com/pack/doc/CMSIS/RTOS/html/group__CMSIS__RTOS__ThreadMgmt.html

​Hi David,

thank you, but it seems somthing wrong.

In the ST "Developing Applications on STM32Cube with RTOS" pg. 16 the osThreadDef has 5 parameters:

osThreadDef (LED1, LED_Thread1, osPriorityNormal, 0, configMINIMAL_STACK_SIZE);

But at the link indicated the same function has 4 parameters!

osThreadDef( name, priority, instances, stacksz )

Probably a quite different definition, I'm looking for the ST definition documentation.

As David wrote, the CMSIS layer belongs to ARM (or Keil). They likely have error in their documentation (which was generated from sources by Doxygen). So

1. Read the source : in the CubeMX packages, in Middlewares/Third_Party/FreeRTOS/Source/CMSIS_RTOS/cmsis_os.h
2. Report errors to Keil.

​Thanks Pavel,

here the example from

STM32Cube_FW_F4_V1.24.0\Middlewares\Third_Party\FreeRTOS\Source\CMSIS_RTOS

/// Create a thread and add it to Active Threads and set it to state READY.

/// \param[in]    thread_def   thread definition referenced with \ref osThread.

/// \param[in]    argument     pointer that is passed to the thread function as start argument.

/// \return thread ID for reference by other functions or NULL in case of error.

/// \note MUST REMAIN UNCHANGED: \b osThreadCreate shall be consistent in every CMSIS-RTOS.

osThreadId osThreadCreate (const osThreadDef_t *thread_def, void *argument);
