'Nucleo-F401fb + stm32CubeMX + iar ewarm' can not run azure RTOS

[zoro]

"I successfully ran a simple Azure RTOS task using nucleo-f429zi, stm32cubemx, and iar ewarm 9.30. However, when I apply the same method to nucleo-f401re, it gets stuck in the tx_thread_sleep function. It seems that the OS Tick interrupt might not be occurring properly. Therefore, I have the following questions:

1. Why is it possible to use Azure RTOS easily with stm32CubeMX on Nucleo-F429ZI, but not on Nucleo-F401RE?
2. What could be the cause of this issue, and how can it be resolved?"

Thanks in advance.

Hello @zoro and welcome to the community :),

Could you please precise which STM32CubeMx version are you using?

You can use X-CUBE-AZRTOS-F4 using STM32CubeMX 6.11.1 and Nucleo-F401RE as shown in the below figure.

Could you please take a look at this FAQ may help you How to export a project configuration to a compati... - STMicroelectronics Community

Thank you.

Hi, Kaouthar

I've resolved the issue. The problem was due to the NVIC's "Priority Group" being set to "0 bits for pre-emption priority, 4 bits for sub priority". After changing the setting to "4 bits for pre-emption priority, 0 bits for sub priority", everything started working properly.

On Nucleo-F429ZI, when adding Azure RTOS, CubeMX correctly sets it to "4 bits for pre-emption priority, 0 bits for sub priority". However, on Nucleo-F401RE, when Azure RTOS is added, it defaults to "0 bits for pre-emption priority, 4 bits for sub priority", and I'm not sure why.

Thank you for your willingness to help.
