The <b>CMSIS-RTOS v2 (CMSIS-RTOS2)</b> provides generic RTOS interfaces for Arm&reg; Cortex&reg; processor-based
devices. It provides a standardized API for software components that require RTOS functionality and gives therefore serious
benefits to the users and the software industry:
- CMSIS-RTOS2 provides basic features that are required in many applications.
- The unified feature set of the CMSIS-RTOS2 reduces learning efforts and simplifies sharing of software components.
- Middleware components that use the CMSIS-RTOS2 are RTOS agnostic and are easier to adapt.
- Standard project templates of the CMSIS-RTOS2 may be shipped with freely available CMSIS-RTOS2 implementations.
\note The CMSIS-RTOS API Version 2 defines a minimum feature set. Implementations with extended features may be provided by
the RTOS vendors.
The CMSIS-RTOS2 manages the resources of the microcontroller system and implements the concept of parallel threads that run
concurrently.
Applications frequently require several concurrent activities. CMSIS-RTOS2 can manage multiple concurrent activities at the
time when they are needed. Each activity gets a separate thread which executes a specific task and this simplifies the
overall program structure. The CMSIS-RTOS2 system is scalable and additional threads can be added easily at a later time.
Threads have a priority allowing faster execution of time-critical parts of a user application.
The CMSIS-RTOS2 offers services needed in many real-time applications, for example, periodical activation of timer functions,
memory management, and message exchange between threads with time limits.
The CMSIS-RTOS2 addresses the following new requirements:
- Dynamic object creation no longer requires static memory, static memory buffers are now optional.
\if ARMv8M
- Support for Armv8-M architecture that provides a secure and non-secure state of code execution.
\endif
- Provisions for message passing in multi-core systems.
- Full support of C++ run-time environments.
- C interface which is binary compatible across
<a href="http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.subset.swdev.abi/index.html">ABI compatible compilers</a>.
As a consequence of these requirements the CMSIS-RTOS2 has the following fundamental modifications:
- The functions osXxxxNew replace osXxxxCreate functions; osXxxxNew and osXxxxDelete create and destroy objects.
- The C function \c main is no longer started as a thread (this was an optional feature in CMSIS-RTOS v1).
- Functions that return osEvent have been replaced.
CMSIS-RTOS2 provides an translation layer to <a class="el" href="../../RTOS/html/index.html">CMSIS-RTOS v1</a>. It
is possible to intermix \ref rtos_api2 and <a class="el" href="../../RTOS/html/functionOverview.html">CMSIS-RTOS C API v1</a>
within the same application. Over time, you may migrate to the new API as explained in \ref os2Migration.
CMSIS-RTOS2 is not POSIX compliant, but has provisions to enable a C++11/C++14 interface.
The following sections provide further details about CMSIS-RTOS2 and the RTX reference implementation.
- \subpage rtos_revisionHistory documents changes made in each version for CMSIS-RTOS v2 and RTX v5.
- \subpage genRTOS2IF provides an overview about the APIs available with CMSIS-RTOS v2.
- \subpage functionOverview lists the CMSIS-RTOS2 API functions and the header file %cmsis_os2.h.
\ifnot FuSaRTS
- \subpage rtosValidation describes the validation suite that is publicly available.
- \subpage os2Migration shows how to use CMSIS-RTOS2 in existing projects and lists function differences to CMSIS-RTOS v1.
\endif
- \subpage rtx5_impl provides general information about the operation and usage of RTX v5.
\if FuSaRTS
- \subpage rtx_safety provides comprehensive instructions for highly reliable applications.
