Migration from XilKernel to freeRTOS

msauerpb

Hi,

in a new design with Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC we have to switch from our old firmware, written with XilKernel in Virtex 5 / Artix-7, to a freeRTOS kernel.

I create a sample project with the freeRTOS hello world and network echo server. In main routine I can't find routines for kernel initialization like xilkernel_init, xilkernel_main and xilkernel_start in the XilKernel project. Are these routines no longer required? Where is the ISR, hardware, stack initialization done?

I connected the interrupt signal of my AXI IP cores to the AXI Interrupt Controller and this signal to PL-to-PS Interrupt. What have I to do that the interrupts work in freeRTOS?

Thank you for your help.

BR

    Yes, the routines xilkernel_init, xilkernel_main and xilkernel_start are no longer required in freeRTOS. The kernel initialization is done by the FreeRTOSConfig.h file, which you can find in the freeRTOS directory. This file contains all the configuration settings for the kernel, such as the number of tasks, the stack size for each task, and the priority of each task.

    The ISR, hardware, and stack initialization are done by the FreeRTOS kernel itself. You do not need to do any of this manually. vidmate tutuapp
