In STM32CubeMX, What is thread-safe-settings

[ADani.2]

..

For a long time, the standard library was not RTOS aware. I.e. functions like malloc behaved badly when a RTOS scheduler kicked in. This was fixed recently by the new dialog box. If you say yes, a thread-safe version of the library is used which induces some overhead. For non-RTOS code, answering no is fine.

disclaimer: did not test the new behaviour

There are 6 different options in this dialog box. What is the use of each option. Is there any documentation.

Thank you,

Hi @ADani.2​ ,

For now, there is no documentation on thread safe settings but the request of documentation is already reported internally.

I will keep you posted with the updates.

Regards,

Sara.

Hello,

Please check the AN5731 which is now available in https://www.st.com, it describes the thread-safe solution, implemented in STM32CubeMX and STM32CubeIDE.
