freertos: Updated vTaskRemoveFromUnorderedEventList() to consider scheduler state before adding task to ready list
Closes IDF-5785
See merge request espressif/esp-idf!23482
vTaskRemoveFromUnorderedEventList() runs under the assumption that the
scheduler is suspended during the call. However, for IDF FreeRTOS, this
is not true. When dual-core system is active, this API call is made in
a critical section but without suspending the scheduler. This commit
updates the vTaskRemoveFromUnorderedEventList() function to now consider
the scheduler state on either cores before adding a task to the ready list.
This commit fixes a bug in xTaskRemoveFromEvenetList() where in the
check for scheduler suspension did not account for nested suspensions.
Additionally, this commit updates all checks for scheduler
suspension to follow a uniform way.
FromISR APIs would put an unblocked task on the pending ready list if
the scheduler is suspended on the current core, irrespective of the
task's core affinity and the state of the scheduler on the other core.
This commit updates this behavior by allowing tasks to get scheduled on
a core which has the scheduler running as long as the task's core
affinity allows it.
This commit adds a common macro for the differing configASSERT() calls that
check if the scheduler is suspended outside a critical section. This macro
allows vanilla behavior to be restored for single core builds. Also added
comments explaining why xTaskGetSchedulerState() is called instead when
building for SMP.
Vanilla FreeRTOS expects applications to use one of the heap implementations
provided by FreeRTOS (i.e., heap_x.c), where functions such as pvPortMalloc()
and vPortFree() are defined in the heap implementation.
However, ESP-IDF already provides its own heap implementation
(i.e., esp_heap_caps.h). Thus, the pvPortMallc()/vPortFree() functions were
previously overriden by macro to call esp_heap functions directly.
This commit refactors the FreeRTOS port's heap as such:
- Added a heap_idf.c that implements all of the heap related functions required
by FreeRTOS source
- All dynamic memory allocated by FreeRTOS is from internal memory. Thus, the
FreeRTOS heap is the internal memory subset of the ESP-IDF heap.
- Removed some old macros to reduce diff from upstream source code.
Previously, IDF FreeRTOS would restrict the clean up of task memory (done by
vTaskDelete() or the Idle task) to only tasks pinned to the current core or
unpinned tasks. This was due to the need to clear the task's coprocessor
ownership on the other core (i.e., "_xt_coproc_owner_sa"). But this restriction
can be lifted by simply protecting access of "_xt_coproc_owner_sa" with a
spinlock.
This commit implements a "_xt_coproc_owner_sa_lock" to protect the access of
"_xt_coproc_owner_sa", thus vTaskDelete() and prvDeleteTCB() can now delete
tasks pinned to the other core so long as that task is not currently running.
Note: This fix was copied from the Xtensa port of Amazon SMP FreeRTOS
This commit removes the dependency on portUSING_MPU_WRAPPERS on the Xtensa port
of IDF FreeRTOS. This dependency was added due to a hack implemented in the
upstream port that required the usage of the "xMPUSettings" member of the TCB.
The "xMPUSettings" would be used as a pointer to the task's coprocessor save
area on the stack, even though FreeRTOS MPU support was not available.
The hack has now been removed, and the CPSA pointer is now calculated using
a combination of constant offsets values and the pxEndOfStack member of the
TCB.
Note: This impelemtation was copied from the Xtensa port of Amazon SMP FreeRTOS.
This commit restores the vanilla behavior for taskSELECT_HIGHEST_PRIORITY_TASK
when configNUM_CORES == 1 && configUSE_PORT_OPTIMISED_TASK_SELECTION == 0. This
results in the SMP selection algorithm (taskSelectHighestPriorityTaskSMP) to
only be run when configNUM_CORES > 1.
Due to SMP, critical sections have been added to xTaskIncrementTick() and
vTaskSwitchContext() (to take the xKernelLock). However, this is technically
not necessary when building for single-core as FreeRTOS expect these funcitons
to be called with interrupts already disabled.
This commit makes the critical secitons in those functions depend on
"configNUM_CORES > 1", and ensures that interrupts are disabled when calling
those functions. This effectively restores the vanilla behavior for these
functions when building for single-core.
In IDF FreeRTOS, when building for SMP, there are numerous functions
which require different critical sections when compared to single-core. This
commit encapsulates those difference into a common set of macros whose
behavior depends on "configNUM_CORES > 1". As such...
- Vanilla behavior has been restored for some functions when building for
single core (i.e., used to call taskENTER_CRITICAL, now disables interrupts
mactching vanilla behavior).
- Reduces number of "#ifdef (configNUM_CORES > 1)" in functions
- Any SMP only critical sections are now wrapped by
"#ifdef (configNUM_CORES > 1)" and properly documented via comments.
This commit updates how configTHREAD_LOCAL_STORAGE_DELETE_CALLBACKS is defined
by default it to 0 if not defined elsewhere. Dependent code now check for
"configTHREAD_LOCAL_STORAGE_DELETE_CALLBACKS == 1" instead.
This commit synchronize the cosmetic differences of IDF FreeRTOS to upstream
Vanilla v10.4.3. Comsetic differences include:
- Out of date doxygen API descriptions
- Misnamed parameters
- Missing examples
- Fixed/added missing @cond/@code directives
- Extra/missing comments/lines
- Code formatting (uncrustify)
Other changes:
- Some ESP_PLATFORM directives were also removed
- xTaskIncrementTickOtherCores() now depends on "configNUM_CORES > 1"
- Updated some multi-core dummy variable names in FreeRTOS.h
The following changes have been made in this commit:
1. configMINIMAL_STACK_SIZE is now defined as CONFIG_FREERTOS_IDLE_TASK_STACKSIZE.
2. Removed configIDLE_TASK_STACK_SIZE config as it was redundant.
3. Updates the order of allocating the TCB and stack memory to avoid the
stack memory overriding the TCB memory when the stack grows downwards.
4. CONFIG_FREERTOS_IDLE_TASK_STACKSIZE is now incorporated into the
FreeRTOSConfig_smp.h to configure the IDLE0 stack size.

This commit updates various FreeRTOS functions to call the newly added
prvCheckForYield() and prvCheckForYieldUsingPriority() when checking for
yielding. This allows the source code to match upstream more closely.
When a FreeRTOS function unblocks a task, that function will check whether
the unblocked task requires a yield to be called. This is currently done by
having each function individually check if the unblocked task has a higher
priority than the both cores, and yielding the appropriate core.
This commit adds the macros list below to abstract away the yielding checking
procedure. This will allow the code to match upstream more closely.
- prvCheckForYield()
- prvCheckForYieldUsingPriority()
This commit fixes vTaskSuspendAll() and xTaskResumeAll() in the following ways.
- For vTaskSuspendAll()
- Sync function source code with upstream single core version
- Clearly mark IDF additions
- For xTaskResumeAll()
- Sync function source code with upstream single core version
- Clearly mark IDF additions
- Fix bug where cores other than core 0 were allowed to unwind pended ticks
This commit fixes the following issues:
- Clearly mark IDF additions in vTaskStepTick() and xTaskCatchUpTicks()
- Add back vTaskSuspendAll()/xTaskResumeAll() to xTaskCatchUpTicks(). Scheduler
suspension and resumption is required to unwind the pended ticks.
Previously, xTaskIncrementTick() would always trigger a yield (i.e., return pdTRUE)
when called on core 1. This would mean core 1 would call vTaskSwitchContext() on
every tick, leading to uneccesary CPU overhead.
This commit fixes xTaskIncrementTick() in the following ways:
- Clearly mark IDF additions in xTaskIncrementTick()
- Moved esp_vApplicationTickHook() to be called direclty in xPortSysTickHandler() in order to
simplify xTaskIncrementTick().
- Only core 0 calls xTaskIncrementTick() in order to simplify the function's logic. Core 0 is
solely responsible for managing xTickCount and xPendedTicks
- All other cores call xTaskIncrementTickOtherCores() instead which is a simplified version of
xTaskIncrementTick() and handles the following:
- Check if core 0 has unblocked a higher priority task to run
- Check if the current core requires time slicing
- Call vApplicationTickHook()
FreeRTOS synchronization primitives (e.g., queues, eventgroups) use various event lists (i.e., task lists) to track what
tasks are blocked on a current primitive. Usually these event lists are accessed via one of the event lists functions
(such as vTask[PlaceOn|RemoveFrom]UnorderedEventList()), which in turn ensure that the global task list spinlock
(xTaskQueueMutex) is taken when accessing these lists.
However, some functions in event_groups.c manually traverse their event lists. Thus if a tick interrupt occurs on
another core during traversal and that tick interrupt unblocks a task on the event list being traversed, the event list
will be corrupted.
This commit modifies the following event_groups.c functions so that they take the global task list lock before
traversing their event list.
- xEventGroupSetBits()
- vEventGroupDelete()
SMP FreeRTOS adds support for dynamic reentrancy in the following commit:
34b8e24d7c
This commit does the following:
- Pulls in the upstream changes
- Move __getreent() to "freertos_tasks_c_additions.h"
- Add the required configNEWLIB_REENTRANT_IS_DYNAMIC to SMP FreeRTOS port
This commit does the following:
- Adds SPDX license identifiers to FreeRTOS sources. Remove those FreeRTOS sources from
the copyright ignore list.
- Update xtensa port files to match FreeRTOS v10.4.3. Added SPDX license identifiers
to the port files.
- Fixed some improperly licensed files
- Removed portbenchmark.h from RISC-V port
This commit updates the handles for the timer, task and event_group
modules to struct type. This matches upstream freertos source.

This issue was earlier fixed in commit 79e74e5d5f
but during migration to newer FreeRTOS release, it got introduced again.
This commit fixes thread safety issues with configASSERT() calls
regarding the value of uxSchedulerSuspended. A false negative
occurs if a context switch to the opposite core occurs in between
the getting the core ID and the assesment.

The previous SMP freertos round robin would skip over tasks when
time slicing. This commit implements a Best Effort Round Robin
where selected tasks are put to the back of the list, thus
makes the time slicing more fair.
- Documentation has been updated accordingly.
- Tidy up vTaskSwitchContext() to match v10.4.3 more
- Increased esp_ipc task stack size to avoid overflow
