RTX Real-Time Operating System Issues

RTX Real-Time Operating System Issues

Tổng hợp các vấn đề tôi đã bị vướng khi làm việc với Keil - RTX (for STM32)

1. Sizeof base on MCU platform.
Keyword: sizeof in Keil ARM, sizeof of struct, checksum, BKP_ReadBackupRegister,
BKP_WriteBackupRegister.
Description: Return wrong size of struct when you call sizeof(YourStruct);

Trong ví dụ dưới, ứng với mỗi kiểu khai báo thứ tự của các member trong struct khác nhau, sẽ trả về size of struct khác nhau. Vì vậy, nếu không chắc chắn về sizeof, hãy debug để xác định chính xác toán tử này trả về bao nhiêu trong từng trường hợp cụ thể.
Bạn hoàn toàn có thể dính trấu trong trường hợp sử dụng sizeof để tính checksum, hoặc làm việc với Ram Backup.
Example:
typedef struct
{
uint16_t mem1;
uint32_t mem2;
}foo1_t;

typedef struct
{
uint16_t mem1;
uint16_t dummy;
uint32_t mem2;
}foo2_t;

typedef struct
{
uint16_t mem1;
uint8_t dummy;
uint32_t mem2;
}foo3_t;


len1 = sizeof(foo1_t);
len2 = sizeof(foo2_t);
len3 = sizeof(foo3_t);
Result: len1 = len2 = len3 = 8;

In another case:
typedef struct
{
uint8_t mem1;
uint8_t mem2;
}foo1_t;
len1 = sizeof(foo1_t) = 2;

typedef struct
{
uint8_t mem1;
uint16_t mem2;
}foo1_t;
len1 = sizeof(foo1_t) = 4;

typedef struct
{
uint8_t mem1;
uint16_t mem2;
uint16_t mem3;
}foo1_t;
len1 = sizeof(foo1_t) = 6;

typedef struct
{
uint8_t mem1;
uint16_t mem2;
uint32_t mem3;
}foo1_t;
len1 = sizeof(foo1_t) = 8;

typedef struct
{
uint8_t mem1;
uint32_t mem3;
}foo1_t;
len1 = sizeof(foo1_t) = 8;

2. Time management (các loại wait, delay trong RTX)
Keyword: os_dly_wait, os_itv_set, os_itv_wait.
Description:
Reference:
http://www.eng.auburn.edu/~nelson/courses/elec5260_6260/RL-ARM%20Real-Time%20Executive%20(RTX).pdf

Just one thing to remember that:
Cannot mix os_itv_wait and os_dly_wait in one task. Because, os_dly_wait will change interval time of task what is set by os_itv_set before.

3. Mutex (stand for “Mutual Exclusion”)
Keyword: Mutex, semaphore
Description: How to use mutex...
Reference: http://www.dejazzer.com/ee379/labs/lab6_rtos.pdf
When:
The main use of a Mutex is to control access to a chip resource
such as a peripheral/register.
os_mut_wait also change priority of the owning task of the mutex
http://www.keil.com/support/man/docs/rlarm/rlarm_os_mut_wait.htm

Hàm os_mut_wait có thể làm thay đổi priority của 1 task
Q&A
1. Khai tối đa được bao nhiêu mutex?
/* Definition of Mutex type */
typedef U32 OS_MUT[3];
Ex: OS_MUT  GsmMutex // GsmMutex là 1 mảng 3 phần tử có định dạng là U32
2. Tại sao lại có 3 phần tử?


4. Task managemet
Keyword: RL-RTX, state, 
Description: How to use mutex...

[STM32] How to configure Timer 1, Channel 3 is PWM 1kHz, duty cycle 20% to control BLDC motor

 To configure Timer1 for a 1 kHz PWM signal with a 20% duty cycle on an STM32H7S3L8 microcontroller, follow these steps: 1. Understand the Timer Parameters PWM Frequency : 1 kHz → Period = 1 ms. Duty Cycle : 20% → ON time = 0.2 ms. The timer’s clock frequency is derived from the APB clock (e.g., TIMCLK). Let’s assume you know the APB clock frequency. The Timer prescaler and auto-reload register (ARR) define the PWM frequency. 2. Compute Timer Parameters Formula: PWM Frequency = Timer Clock (Prescaler + 1) * (ARR + 1) \text{PWM Frequency} = \frac{\text{Timer Clock}}{\text{(Prescaler + 1) * (ARR + 1)}} PWM Frequency = (Prescaler + 1) * (ARR + 1) Timer Clock ​ For 1 kHz PWM: A R R = Timer Clock PWM Frequency ∗ ( Prescaler + 1) − 1 ARR = \frac{\text{Timer Clock}}{\text{PWM Frequency} * (\text{Prescaler + 1)}} - 1 A RR = PWM Frequency ∗ ( Prescaler + 1) Timer Clock ​ −...

[Git] Handle trailing space when patching with git

After complete coding one module in development branch. Next phase is merging. Obviously, you can merge source code automatically without no errors happen. However, life is not dream. Create a patch git diff HEAD > newTariff.patch Apply patch git apply newTariff.patch then problem happens Problem git apply newTariff.patch:106: trailing whitespace. patch does not apply Route cause: Nguyên nhân: Do trong source code có những dấu space thừa (ô vuông màu đỏ hình dưới) Some whitespaces is existed in your patch. (red area in below pictures) Fix Clean white space and patch again. Cách khắc phục Xóa những dấu space này đi và thực hiện patch lại Make up after complete coding. Find and clean whitespace before create patch file. Sửa sau khi code xong Kiểm tra sau khi code xong có lỗi này không git diff HEAD --check Prevent whitespace by manually when typing source code Sửa ngay khi đang code =>Bật chức năng hiển thị các dấu whitespace, hoặc remove trailing ...
