Introduce configSTACK_DEPTH_TYPE so the application writer change the type used to specify a stack size from uint16_t to whatever they like. Defaults to uint16_t if not defined.
Introduce configINITIAL_TICK_COUNT to allow users to start the tick count at something other than 0. Used for testing, but overflows can be better tested by setting configUSE_16_BIT_TICKS to 1.
Split xQueueGenericReceive() into xQueueReceive(), xQueuePeek() and xQueueSemaphoreTake() as the first step in refactoring xQueueGenericReceive().
Add Cortex-M3 port layer for Code Composer Studio - previously there was only a Cortex-M4F port.
Introduce configPRE_SUPPRESS_TICKS_AND_SLEEP_PROCESSING() to allow applications to prevent portSUPPRESS_TICKS_AND_SLEEP() being called. Previously the portPRE_SLEEP_PROCESSING() macro could only be used to abort entry into sleep time after clocks had been re-programmed for the distant wake time.
Links to a documentation page for each demo are provided on the following
URL: http://www.freertos.org/a00090.html
Each RTOS port has a demo application to demonstrate it's use.
+ The Demo/Common directory contains the demo application files as described on
the http://www.FreeRTOS.org WEB site. Each file creates one or more tasks.
The files in the Demo/Common directory are used by every demo application for
every port.
+ All the other directories contain a project or makefile for the demo
application targeted at a particular microcontroller.
For example, if you are interested in the ATMega323 demo application for
the WinAVR tools then the AVR_ATMega323_WinAVR directory contains the
relevant makefile. The makefile includes files from the Demo/ATMega323
and the Demo/Common directories. If this is the only port you are
interested in then all the other directories can be ignored.
