-# About QP Examples for ARM Cortex-M (arm-cm)
-This directory provides QP examples for ARM Cortex-M based MCUs.
-
-These examples are intended to be used "as-is", or [adapted](#adapting-the-examples) for any ARM Cortex-M MCU that is not directly supported.
-
-<p align="center">
-<img src="qp_arm-cm.jpg"/>
-</p>
-
-> **NOTE**
-The most simplifying factor is that the QP-ports to Cortex-M don't need to change at all (the correct port is selected automatically based on the standard preprocessor macros provided by the compiler).
-
-# Example Applications
-This directory contains two types of example applications:
- `blinky_<embedded-board>` demonstrates a [simple "blinky" application](https://www.state-machine.com/qpc/tut_blinky.html) with only one Active Object that periodically blinks an on-board LED. The "blinky" example is intentionally minimal and demonstrates only the QV and QK kernels (QXK is not demonstrated). Also, this example does not demonstrate the [QP/Spy software tracing](https://www.state-machine.com/qtools/qpspy.html).
-
- `dpp_<embedded-board>` demonstrates a more complete ["DPP" application (Dining Philosophers Problem)](https://www.state-machine.com/qpc/tut_dpp.html), with multiple, communicating Active Objects. The "dpp" example demonstrates all three built-in kernels (QV, QK, and QXK). Also, this example demonstrates the [QP/Spy software tracing](https://www.state-machine.com/qtools/qpspy.html).
-
-# Supported Compilers
-The following compilers/toolchains for ARM Cortex-M are supported and demonstrated:
- ARM-KEIL toolchain
- GNU-ARM toolchain
- IAR-ARM toolchain
-
-## Build Configurations
- Debug
- Release
- Spy (only in the "DPP" examples)
-
-# Adapting the Examples
-With dozens of silicon vendors offering ARM Cortex-M MCUs, each providing hundreds if not thousands of MCU variants, it is *impossible* to offer direct support for each and every such MCU. But this is also not necessary because the already provided examples can be adapted relatively easily. The most important simplifying fact is that the [QP-ports to Cortex-M](https://www.state-machine.com/qpc/arm-cm.html) don't need to change at all.
-
-This is how you might go about an MCU that is not directly supported in the `qpc/examples/arm-cm`:
-
- choose example that most closely matches your particular MCU. For instance, suppose that you're interested in NXP MKE02Z64VLC2, which is based on the Cortex-M0+ core, the closest are the examples for NUCLEO-C031C6 (also based on M0+)
-
- choose the kernel you'd like to use. For example, assuming that you like QK, you are interested in the qk subdirectory.
-
- choose the compiler you'd like to use. For example, assuming that you like GNU-ARM, you are interested in the gnu subdirectory
-
- build the chosen example project. Again, it **doesn't matter** at this stage that it is not exactly your final hardware. Your objective is testing your QP installation and the compiler installation. You are also getting familiar with QP. These goals are worth but a few minutes of your time.
-
- at this point, it is highly recommend that you just buy one of the supported ARM Cortex-M boards, which are carefully chosen to be very inexpensive. With your own board, you'd be able to run and debug the QP application at your desk, which is priceless because as you surely remember: *In embedded systems NOTING works until EVERYTHING works*.
-
- only *after* you get started with a working example, you can try to modify it for your own board. This typically requires only changes to the BSP (Board Support Package), which is provided in the `bsp.c` file.
-

-|
-```
-
-# Building the example
-
-### GNU/ARM
- open terminal window
- change to the desired directory (either `examples\arm-cm\dpp_nucleo-c031c6\qk\gnu`, `examples\arm-cm\dpp_nucleo-c031c6\qv\gnu`, or `examples\arm-cm\dpp_nucleo-c031c6\qxk\gnu`)
- to build the default Debug configuration, type:
-
-```
-make
-```
-
-> **NOTE**
-The `make` utility for Windows is provided in the QTools collection for Windows.
-
- to build the Release configuration, type:
-
-```
-make CONF=rel
-```
-
- to build the Spy configuration, type:
-
-```
-make CONF=spy
-```
-
-
-### ARM/KEIL MDK
- Open the provided KEIL uVision project (either `dpp-qk.uvprojx`, `dpp-qv.uvprojx`, or `dpp-qxk.uvprojx`)
-in Keil uVision IDE. Build/Debug/Download to the board from the IDE.
- Change the build configuration in the "Project Target" drop-down menu.
-
-
-### IAR EWARM
- Open the provided IAR EWARM workspace (either `dpp-qk.eww`, `dpp-qv.eww`, or `dpp-qxk.eww`)
-in IAR EWARM IDE. Build/Debug/Download to the board from the IDE.
- Change the build configuration in the "Project Configuration" drop-down menu.
-
-
-
-# Tracing with QP/Spy
-When the board is flashed with the Spy build configuration, it produces the QP/Spy software tracing output to the built-in virtual COM port of the TivaC LauchPad board. The trace is binary rather than ASCII, and therefore requires a special host-based application called QSPY.
-
-> **NOTE** QSPY host application is available in the QTools collection.
-
-To launch the QSPY host application:
- open terminal window
- type:
-
-```
-qspy -c COM5
-```
-
-where "COM5" is an example virtual COM port enumerated by the board. You need to check the specific COM port number on your host computer using the Device Manager application, Ports (COM and LPT) section.
-
-
-The following screen shot shows a typical output from QSPY:

-About this Example
-==================
-This example demonstrates how to use the uVision IDE together with
-the MDK-ARM toolchain.
-
-***
-NOTE: This example requires installing the following Software Pack
-in the Keil uVision: Keil::TM4C_DFP.
-***
-
-
-uVision Project File
-====================
-The MDK-ARM uVision project file provided with this example uses
-relative paths to the QP/C framework location (includes, port, and
-libraries. These relative paths must be modified when the project
-is moved to different relative location.
-
-
-Adjusting Stack and Heap Sizes
-==============================
-The stack and heap sizes are determined in this project by the
-command-line options for the ARM assembler (see the Asm tab in
-the "Options for Target" dialog box in uVision). Specifically,
-you should define symbols: Stack_Size=xxx Heap_Size=yyy, where
-xxx represents a numerical value of stack size and yyy the
-numerical value of the heap size (for most embedded projects
-yyy should be 0, as the using the heap is not recommended).
-
-***
-NOTE:
-C++ programs seem not to tolerate heap size of 0. Therefore it is
-recommended to set the Heap_Size symbol to a minimal value of 16.
-***
-
-Startup Code
-============
-The startup code for the TM4C123GH6PM MCU used in this project is
-located in the "3rd_party" folder in the following location:

-3rd_party\ek-tm4c123gxl\arm\startup_TM4C123GH6PM.s
-
-The file startup_TM4C123GH6PM.s provides a template of the recommended
-startup for QP applications and should be easily customizable for other
-ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers.
-
-The startup file typically does not need to be modified or adapted for
-applications. It provides only weak definitions of all exception and
-interrupt handlers, as well as the assert_failed() function.
-
-The weak function assert_failed() defined in this file might be re-defined
-in the application to customize it for the application-specific error-
-handling policy.
-
-***
-NOTE: The function assert_failed() typically should NOT use the stack,
-because stack might be corrupted by the time this function is called.
-Also, assert_failed() is intended to handle catastrophic errors and
-should NOT return.

-// NOTE1:
-// The QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI constant from the QF port specifies the highest
-// ISR priority that is disabled by the QF framework. The value is suitable
-// for the NVIC_SetPriority() CMSIS function.
-//
-// Only ISRs prioritized at or below the QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI level (i.e.,
-// with the numerical values of priorities equal or higher than
-// QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI) are allowed to call any QF services. These ISRs
-// are "QF-aware".
-//
-// Conversely, any ISRs prioritized above the QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI priority
-// level (i.e., with the numerical values of priorities less than
-// QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI) are never disabled and are not aware of the kernel.
-// Such "QF-unaware" ISRs cannot call any QF services. The only mechanism
-// by which a "QF-unaware" ISR can communicate with the QF framework is by
-// triggering a "QF-aware" ISR, which can post/publish events.
-//
-// NOTE2:
-// One of the LEDs is used to visualize the idle loop activity. The brightness
-// of the LED is proportional to the frequency of the idle loop. Please note
-// that the LED is toggled with interrupts locked, so no interrupt execution
-// time contributes to the brightness of the User LED.

-About this Example
-==================
-This example can be built in two different ways:
- from the command prompt with the provided Makefile.
- from the TI Code Composer Studio with the provided CCS project.
-
-
-The Makefile
-============
-The provided Makefile should be easy to adapt for your own projects.
-It contains three build configurations: Debug (default), Release, and
-Spy.
-
-Also, the Makefile has been specifically designed to work as an external
-Makefile with the Eclipse CDT.
-
-The various build configurations are built as follows:
-
-make
-make CONF=rel
-make CONF=spy
-
-make clean
-make CONF=rel clean
-make CONF=spy clean
-
-***
-NOTE:
-The installation folder of the GNU-ARM toolset on YOUR machine needs
-to be adjusted in the provided Makefile, by editing the symbol: GNU_ARM.
-As described in the comment for this symbol, the GNU-ARM toolset is taken
-from: http://gnutoolchains.com/arm-eabi
-
-It is highly recommended to use the same GNU-ARM distribution, especially
-for ARM Cortex-M4F projects, due to the support for the hardware FPU
-(float-abi=hard).
-***
-
-
-Adjusting Stack and Heap Sizes
-==============================
-The stack and heap sizes are determined in this project by the GCC linker
-script (.ld file), which provides a template of the recommended GCC linker
-script for QP applications.
-
-
-Startup Code
-============
-The startup code for the TM4C123GH6PM MCU used in this project is
-located in the "3rd_party" folder in the following location:
-
-3rd_party\ek-tm4c123gxl\gcc\startup_TM4C123GH6PM.c
-
-The file startup_TM4C123GH6PM.c provides a template of the recommended
-startup for QP applications and should be easily customizable for other
-ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers.
-
-The startup file typically does not need to be modified or adapted for
-applications. It provides only weak definitions of all exception and
-interrupt handlers, as well as the assert_failed() function.
-
-The weak function assert_failed() defined in this file might be re-defined
-in the application to customize it for the application-specific error-
-handling policy.
-
-***
-NOTE: The function assert_failed() typically should NOT use the stack,
-because stack might be corrupted by the time this function is called.
-Also, assert_failed() is intended to handle catastrophic errors and
-should NOT return.

-About this Example
-==================
-This example demonstrates how to use the IAR EWARM IDE to build
-a QP application.
-
-
-IAR Project File
----------------
-The IAR EWARM project file provided with this example uses relative paths
-to the QP/C framework location (includes, port, and libraries. These
-relative paths must be modified when the project is moved to different
-relative location.
-
-
-Stack Size and Heap Size
------------------------
-In this project, the size of the C stack and heap are determined in
-the linker script blinky-qk.icf (see the next section).
-
-
-Linker Script
-------------
-The IAR linker script provides a template of the recommended linker script
-for QP applications. This file needs to be customized to set the
-application-specific sizes of the Stack and Heap. This file can be edited
-from the IAR EWARM IDE via the Project Options/Linker settings.
-
-
-Startup Code
------------
-The startup code for the TM4C123GH6PM MCU used in this project is
-located in the "3rd_party" folder in the following location:
-
-3rd_party\ek-tm4c123gxl\iar\startup_TM4C123GH6PM.s
-
-The file startup_TM4C123GH6PM.s provides a template of the recommended
-startup for QP applications and should be easily customizable for other
-ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers.
-
-The startup file typically does not need to be modified or adapted for
-applications. It provides only weak definitions of all exception and
-interrupt handlers, as well as the assert_failed() function.
-
-The weak function assert_failed() defined in this file might be re-defined
-in the application to customize it for the application-specific error-
-handling policy.
-
-***
-NOTE: The function assert_failed() typically should NOT use the stack,
-because stack might be corrupted by the time this function is called.
-Also, assert_failed() is intended to handle catastrophic errors and
-should NOT return.

-About this Example
-==================
-This example demonstrates how to use the uVision IDE together with
-the MDK-ARM toolchain.
-
-***
-NOTE: This example requires installing the following Software Pack
-in the Keil uVision: Keil::TM4C_DFP.
-***
-
-
-uVision Project File
-====================
-The MDK-ARM uVision project file provided with this example uses
-relative paths to the QP/C framework location (includes, port, and
-libraries. These relative paths must be modified when the project
-is moved to different relative location.
-
-
-Adjusting Stack and Heap Sizes
-==============================
-The stack and heap sizes are determined in this project by the
-command-line options for the ARM assembler (see the Asm tab in
-the "Options for Target" dialog box in uVision). Specifically,
-you should define symbols: Stack_Size=xxx Heap_Size=yyy, where
-xxx represents a numerical value of stack size and yyy the
-numerical value of the heap size (for most embedded projects
-yyy should be 0, as the using the heap is not recommended).
-
-***
-NOTE:
-C++ programs seem not to tolerate heap size of 0. Therefore it is
-recommended to set the Heap_Size symbol to a minimal value of 16.
-***
-
-Startup Code
-============
-The startup code for the TM4C123GH6PM MCU used in this project is
-located in the "3rd_party" folder in the following location:
-
-3rd_party\ek-tm4c123gxl\arm\startup_TM4C123GH6PM.s
-
-The file startup_TM4C123GH6PM.s provides a template of the recommended
-startup for QP applications and should be easily customizable for other
-ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers.
-
-The startup file typically does not need to be modified or adapted for
-applications. It provides only weak definitions of all exception and
-interrupt handlers, as well as the assert_failed() function.
-
-The weak function assert_failed() defined in this file might be re-defined
-in the application to customize it for the application-specific error-
-handling policy.
-
-***
-NOTE: The function assert_failed() typically should NOT use the stack,
-because stack might be corrupted by the time this function is called.
-Also, assert_failed() is intended to handle catastrophic errors and
-should NOT return.

-//============================================================================
-// NOTE0:
-// The QV::onIdle() callback is called with interrupts disabled, because the
-// determination of the idle condition might change by any interrupt posting
-// an event. QV::onIdle() must internally enable interrupts, ideally
-// atomically with putting the CPU to the power-saving mode.
-//
-// NOTE1:
-// The QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI constant from the QF port specifies the highest
-// ISR priority that is disabled by the QF framework. The value is suitable
-// for the NVIC_SetPriority() CMSIS function.
-//
-// Only ISRs prioritized at or below the QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI level (i.e.,
-// with the numerical values of priorities equal or higher than
-// QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI) are allowed to call any QF services. These ISRs
-// are "QF-aware".
-//
-// Conversely, any ISRs prioritized above the QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI priority
-// level (i.e., with the numerical values of priorities less than
-// QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI) are never disabled and are not aware of the kernel.
-// Such "QF-unaware" ISRs cannot call any QF services. The only mechanism
-// by which a "QF-unaware" ISR can communicate with the QF framework is by
-// triggering a "QF-aware" ISR, which can post/publish events.
-//
-// NOTE2:
-// One of the LEDs is used to visualize the idle loop activity. The brightness
-// of the LED is proportional to the frequency of the idle loop. Please note
-// that the LED is toggled with interrupts locked, so no interrupt execution
-// time contributes to the brightness of the User LED.

-About this Example
-==================
-This example can be built in two different ways:
- from the command prompt with the provided Makefile.
- from the TI Code Composer Studio with the provided CCS project.
-
-
-The Makefile
-============
-The provided Makefile should be easy to adapt for your own projects.
-It contains three build configurations: Debug (default), Release, and
-Spy.
-
-Also, the Makefile has been specifically designed to work as an external
-Makefile with the Eclipse CDT.
-
-The various build configurations are built as follows:
-
-make
-make CONF=rel
-make CONF=spy
-
-make clean
-make CONF=rel clean
-make CONF=spy clean
-
-***
-NOTE:
-The installation folder of the GNU-ARM toolset on YOUR machine needs
-to be adjusted in the provided Makefile, by editing the symbol: GNU_ARM.
-As described in the comment for this symbol, the GNU-ARM toolset is taken
-from: http://gnutoolchains.com/arm-eabi
-
-It is highly recommended to use the same GNU-ARM distribution, especially
-for ARM Cortex-M4F projects, due to the support for the hardware FPU
-(float-abi=hard).
-***
-
-
-Adjusting Stack and Heap Sizes
-==============================
-The stack and heap sizes are determined in this project by the GCC linker
-script (.ld file), which provides a template of the recommended GCC linker
-script for QP applications.
-
-
-Startup Code
-============
-The startup code for the TM4C123GH6PM MCU used in this project is
-located in the "3rd_party" folder in the following location:
-
-3rd_party\ek-tm4c123gxl\gcc\startup_TM4C123GH6PM.c
-
-The file startup_TM4C123GH6PM.c provides a template of the recommended
-startup for QP applications and should be easily customizable for other
-ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers.
-
-The startup file typically does not need to be modified or adapted for
-applications. It provides only weak definitions of all exception and
-interrupt handlers, as well as the assert_failed() function.
-
-The weak function assert_failed() defined in this file might be re-defined
-in the application to customize it for the application-specific error-
-handling policy.
-
-***
-NOTE: The function assert_failed() typically should NOT use the stack,
-because stack might be corrupted by the time this function is called.
-Also, assert_failed() is intended to handle catastrophic errors and
-should NOT return.

-About this Example
-==================
-This example demonstrates how to use the IAR EWARM IDE to build
-a QP application.
-
-
-IAR Project File
----------------
-The IAR EWARM project file provided with this example uses relative paths
-to the QP/C framework location (includes, port, and libraries. These
-relative paths must be modified when the project is moved to different
-relative location.
-
-
-Stack Size and Heap Size
------------------------
-In this project, the size of the C stack and heap are determined in
-the linker script blinky-qk.icf (see the next section).
-
-
-Linker Script
-------------
-The IAR linker script provides a template of the recommended linker script
-for QP applications. This file needs to be customized to set the
-application-specific sizes of the Stack and Heap. This file can be edited
-from the IAR EWARM IDE via the Project Options/Linker settings.
-
-
-Startup Code
------------
-The startup code for the TM4C123GH6PM MCU used in this project is
-located in the "3rd_party" folder in the following location:
-
-3rd_party\ek-tm4c123gxl\iar\startup_TM4C123GH6PM.s
-
-The file startup_TM4C123GH6PM.s provides a template of the recommended
-startup for QP applications and should be easily customizable for other
-ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers.
-
-The startup file typically does not need to be modified or adapted for
-applications. It provides only weak definitions of all exception and
-interrupt handlers, as well as the assert_failed() function.
-
-The weak function assert_failed() defined in this file might be re-defined
-in the application to customize it for the application-specific error-
-handling policy.
-
-***
-NOTE: The function assert_failed() typically should NOT use the stack,
-because stack might be corrupted by the time this function is called.
-Also, assert_failed() is intended to handle catastrophic errors and
-should NOT return.

-// NOTE1:
-// The QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI constant from the QF port specifies the highest
-// ISR priority that is disabled by the QF framework. The value is suitable
-// for the NVIC_SetPriority() CMSIS function.
-//
-// Only ISRs prioritized at or below the QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI level (i.e.,
-// with the numerical values of priorities equal or higher than
-// QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI) are allowed to call any QF services. These ISRs
-// are "QF-aware".
-//
-// Conversely, any ISRs prioritized above the QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI priority
-// level (i.e., with the numerical values of priorities less than
-// QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI) are never disabled and are not aware of the kernel.
-// Such "QF-unaware" ISRs cannot call any QF services. The only mechanism
-// by which a "QF-unaware" ISR can communicate with the QF framework is by
-// triggering a "QF-aware" ISR, which can post/publish events.
-//
-// NOTE2:
-// One of the LEDs is used to visualize the idle loop activity. The brightness
-// of the LED is proportional to the frequency of invocations of the idle loop.
-// Please note that the LED is toggled with interrupts locked, so no interrupt
-// execution time contributes to the brightness of the User LED.

-//============================================================================
-// NOTE0:
-// The QV_onIdle() callback is called with interrupts disabled, because the
-// determination of the idle condition might change by any interrupt posting
-// an event. QV_onIdle() must internally enable interrupts, ideally
-// atomically with putting the CPU to the power-saving mode.
-//
-// NOTE1:
-// The QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI constant from the QF port specifies the highest
-// ISR priority that is disabled by the QF framework. The value is suitable
-// for the NVIC_SetPriority() CMSIS function.
-//
-// Only ISRs prioritized at or below the QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI level (i.e.,
-// with the numerical values of priorities equal or higher than
-// QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI) are allowed to call any other QF/QV services.
-// These ISRs are "QF-aware".
-//
-// Conversely, any ISRs prioritized above the QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI priority
-// level (i.e., with the numerical values of priorities less than
-// QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI) are never disabled and are not aware of the kernel.
-// Such "QF-unaware" ISRs cannot call ANY QF/QV services. The only mechanism
-// by which a "QF-unaware" ISR can communicate with the QF framework is by
-// triggering a "QF-aware" ISR, which can post/publish events.
-//
-// NOTE2:
-// The User LED is used to visualize the idle loop activity. The brightness
-// of the LED is proportional to the frequency of the idle loop.
-// Please note that the LED is toggled with interrupts locked, so no interrupt
-// execution time contributes to the brightness of the User LED.

-About this Example
-==================
-This example demonstrates how to use the uVision IDE together with
-the MDK-ARM toolchain.
-
-uVision Project File
-====================
-The MDK-ARM uVision project file provided with this example uses
-relative paths to the QP framework location (includes, port, and
-libraries. These relative paths must be modified when the project
-is moved to different relative location.
-
-
-Adjusting Stack and Heap Sizes
-==============================
-The stack and heap sizes are determined in this project by the
-command-line options for the ARM assembler (see the Asm tab in
-the "Options for Target" dialog box in uVision). Specifically,
-you should define symbols: Stack_Size=xxx Heap_Size=yyy, where
-xxx represents a numerical value of stack size and yyy the
-numerical value of the heap size (for most embedded projects
-yyy should be 0, as the using the heap is not recommended).
-
-
-Startup Code
-============
-The startup code for the TM4C123GH6PM MCU used in this project is
-located in the "3rd_party" folder in the following location:
-
-3rd_party\efm32pg1b\arm\startup_efm32pg1b.s
-
-The file startup_efm32pg1b.s provides a template of the recommended
-startup for QP applications and should be easily customizable for other
-ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers.
-
-The startup file typically does not need to be modified or adapted for
-applications. It provides only weak definitions of all exception and
-interrupt handlers, as well as the assert_failed() function.
-
-The weak function assert_failed() defined in this file might be re-defined
-in the application to customize it for the application-specific error-
-handling policy.
-
-***
-NOTE: The function assert_failed() typically should NOT use the stack,
-because stack might be corrupted by the time this function is called.
-Also, assert_failed() is intended to handle catastrophic errors and
-should NOT return.
-***

-// NOTE1:
-// The QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI constant from the QF port specifies the highest
-// ISR priority that is disabled by the QF framework. The value is suitable
-// for the NVIC_SetPriority() CMSIS function.
-//
-// Only ISRs prioritized at or below the QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI level (i.e.,
-// with the numerical values of priorities equal or higher than
-// QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI) are allowed to call the QK_ISR_ENTRY/
-// QK_ISR_ENTRY macros or any other QF/QK services. These ISRs are
-// "QF-aware".
-//
-// Conversely, any ISRs prioritized above the QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI priority
-// level (i.e., with the numerical values of priorities less than
-// QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI) are never disabled and are not aware of the kernel.
-// Such "QF-unaware" ISRs cannot call ANY QF/QK services. In particular they
-// can NOT call the macros QK_ISR_ENTRY/QK_ISR_ENTRY. The only mechanism
-// by which a "QF-unaware" ISR can communicate with the QF framework is by
-// triggering a "QF-aware" ISR, which can post/publish events.
-//
-// NOTE2:
-// The User LED is used to visualize the idle loop activity. The brightness
-// of the LED is proportional to the frequency of the idle loop.
-// Please note that the LED is toggled with interrupts locked, so no interrupt
-// execution time contributes to the brightness of the User LED.

-About this Example
-==================
-This example can be built from the command prompt with the provided
-Makefile. The example can also be imported as a Makefile-based
-project into Eclipse-based IDEs.
-
-
-The Makefile
-============
-The provided Makefile should be easy to adapt for your own projects.
-It contains three build configurations: Debug (default), Release, and
-Spy.
-
-Also, the Makefile has been specifically designed to work as an external
-Makefile with the Eclipse CDT.
-
-The various build configurations are built as follows:
-
-make
-make CONF=rel
-make CONF=spy
-
-make clean
-make CONF=rel clean
-make CONF=spy clean
-
-***
-NOTE:
-The installation folder of the GNU-ARM toolset on YOUR machine needs
-to be adjusted in the provided Makefile, by editing the symbol: GNU_ARM.
-As described in the comment for this symbol, the GNU-ARM toolset is taken
-from: http://gnutoolchains.com/arm-eabi
-
-It is highly recommended to use the same GNU-ARM distribution, especially
-for ARM Cortex-M4F projects, due to the support for the hardware FPU
-(float-abi=hard).
-***
-
-
-Adjusting Stack and Heap Sizes
-==============================
-The stack and heap sizes are determined in this project by the GCC linker
-script (.ld file), which provides a template of the recommended GCC linker
-script for QP applications.
-
-
-Startup Code
-============
-The startup code for the EFM32PG1B200F256GM48 MCU used in this project
-is located in the "3rd_party" folder in the following location:
-
-qpc\3rd_party\efm32pg1b\gnu\startup_efm32pg1b.c
-
-The file startup_efm32pg1b.c provides a template of the recommended
-startup for QP applications and should be easily customizable for other
-ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers.
-
-The startup file typically does not need to be modified or adapted for
-applications. It provides only weak definitions of all exception and
-interrupt handlers, as well as the assert_failed() function.
-
-The weak function assert_failed() defined in this file might be re-defined
-in the application to customize it for the application-specific error-
-handling policy.
-
-***
-NOTE: The function assert_failed() typically should NOT use the stack,
-because stack might be corrupted by the time this function is called.
-Also, assert_failed() is intended to handle catastrophic errors and
-should NOT return.

-About this Example
-==================
-This example demonstrates how to use the IAR EWARM IDE to build
-a QP application.
-
-
-IAR Project File
----------------
-The IAR EWARM project file provided with this example uses relative paths
-to the QP/C framework location (includes, port, and libraries. These
-relative paths must be modified when the project is moved to different
-relative location.
-
-
-Stack Size and Heap Size
------------------------
-In this project, the size of the C stack and heap are determined in
-the linker script blinky-qk.icf (see the next section).
-
-
-Linker Script
-------------
-The IAR linker script provides a template of the recommended linker script
-for QP applications. This file needs to be customized to set the
-application-specific sizes of the Stack and Heap. This file can be edited
-from the IAR EWARM IDE via the Project Options/Linker settings.
-
-
-Startup Code
-============
-The startup code for the EFM32PG1B200F256GM48 MCU used in this project is
-located in the "3rd_party" folder in the following location:
-
-3rd_party\efm32pg1b\iar\startup_efm32pg1b.s
-
-The file startup_efm32pg1b.s provides a template of the recommended
-startup for QP applications and should be easily customizable for other
-ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers.
-
-The startup file typically does not need to be modified or adapted for
-applications. It provides only weak definitions of all exception and
-interrupt handlers, as well as the assert_failed() function.
-
-The weak function assert_failed() defined in this file might be re-defined
-in the application to customize it for the application-specific error-
-handling policy.
-
-***
-NOTE: The function assert_failed() typically should NOT use the stack,
-because stack might be corrupted by the time this function is called.
-Also, assert_failed() is intended to handle catastrophic errors and
-should NOT return.

-About this Example
-==================
-This example demonstrates how to use the uVision IDE together with
-the MDK-ARM toolchain.
-
-uVision Project File
-====================
-The MDK-ARM uVision project file provided with this example uses
-relative paths to the QP framework location (includes, port, and
-libraries. These relative paths must be modified when the project
-is moved to different relative location.
-
-
-Adjusting Stack and Heap Sizes
-==============================
-The stack and heap sizes are determined in this project by the
-command-line options for the ARM assembler (see the Asm tab in
-the "Options for Target" dialog box in uVision). Specifically,
-you should define symbols: Stack_Size=xxx Heap_Size=yyy, where
-xxx represents a numerical value of stack size and yyy the
-numerical value of the heap size (for most embedded projects
-yyy should be 0, as the using the heap is not recommended).
-
-
-Startup Code
-============
-The startup code for the TM4C123GH6PM MCU used in this project is
-located in the "3rd_party" folder in the following location:
-
-3rd_party\efm32pg1b\arm\startup_efm32pg1b.s
-
-The file startup_efm32pg1b.s provides a template of the recommended
-startup for QP applications and should be easily customizable for other
-ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers.
-
-The startup file typically does not need to be modified or adapted for
-applications. It provides only weak definitions of all exception and
-interrupt handlers, as well as the assert_failed() function.
-
-The weak function assert_failed() defined in this file might be re-defined
-in the application to customize it for the application-specific error-
-handling policy.
-
-***
-NOTE: The function assert_failed() typically should NOT use the stack,
-because stack might be corrupted by the time this function is called.
-Also, assert_failed() is intended to handle catastrophic errors and
-should NOT return.

-//============================================================================
-// NOTE0:
-// The QV:onIdle() callback is called with interrupts disabled, because the
-// determination of the idle condition might change by any interrupt posting
-// an event. QV::onIdle() must internally enable interrupts, ideally
-// atomically with putting the CPU to the power-saving mode.
-//
-// NOTE1:
-// The QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI constant from the QF port specifies the highest
-// ISR priority that is disabled by the QF framework. The value is suitable
-// for the NVIC_SetPriority() CMSIS function.
-//
-// Only ISRs prioritized at or below the QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI level (i.e.,
-// with the numerical values of priorities equal or higher than
-// QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI) are allowed to call any QF/QK services. These ISRs
-// are "QF-aware".
-//
-// Conversely, any ISRs prioritized above the QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI priority
-// level (i.e., with the numerical values of priorities less than
-// QF_AWARE_ISR_CMSIS_PRI) are never disabled and are not aware of the kernel.
-// Such "QF-unaware" ISRs cannot call ANY QF/QV services. In particular they
-// can NOT call the macros QV_ISR_ENTRY/QV_ISR_ENTRY. The only mechanism
-// by which a "QF-unaware" ISR can communicate with the QF framework is by
-// triggering a "QF-aware" ISR, which can post/publish events.
-//
-// NOTE2:
-// The User LED is used to visualize the idle loop activity. The brightness
-// of the LED is proportional to the frequency of the idle loop.
-// Please note that the LED is toggled with interrupts locked, so no interrupt
-// execution time contributes to the brightness of the User LED.

-About this Example
-==================
-This example can be built from the command prompt with the provided
-Makefile. The example can also be imported as a Makefile-based
-project into Eclipse-based IDEs.
-
-
-The Makefile
-============
-The provided Makefile should be easy to adapt for your own projects.
-It contains three build configurations: Debug (default), Release, and
-Spy.
-
-Also, the Makefile has been specifically designed to work as an external
-Makefile with the Eclipse CDT.
-
-The various build configurations are built as follows:
-
-make
-make CONF=rel
-make CONF=spy
-
-make clean
-make CONF=rel clean
-make CONF=spy clean
-
-***
-NOTE:
-The installation folder of the GNU-ARM toolset on YOUR machine needs
-to be adjusted in the provided Makefile, by editing the symbol: GNU_ARM.
-As described in the comment for this symbol, the GNU-ARM toolset is taken
-from: http://gnutoolchains.com/arm-eabi
-
-It is highly recommended to use the same GNU-ARM distribution, especially
-for ARM Cortex-M4F projects, due to the support for the hardware FPU
-(float-abi=hard).
-***
-
-
-Adjusting Stack and Heap Sizes
-==============================
-The stack and heap sizes are determined in this project by the GCC linker
-script (.ld file), which provides a template of the recommended GCC linker
-script for QP applications.
-
-
-Startup Code
-============
-The startup code for the EFM32PG1B200F256GM48 MCU used in this project
-is located in the "3rd_party" folder in the following location:
-
-qpc\3rd_party\efm32pg1b\gnu\startup_efm32pg1b.c
-
-The file startup_efm32pg1b.c provides a template of the recommended
-startup for QP applications and should be easily customizable for other
-ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers.
-
-The startup file typically does not need to be modified or adapted for
-applications. It provides only weak definitions of all exception and
-interrupt handlers, as well as the assert_failed() function.
-
-The weak function assert_failed() defined in this file might be re-defined
-in the application to customize it for the application-specific error-
-handling policy.
-
-***
-NOTE: The function assert_failed() typically should NOT use the stack,
-because stack might be corrupted by the time this function is called.
-Also, assert_failed() is intended to handle catastrophic errors and
-should NOT return.
-***

-to the QP/C framework location (includes, port, and libraries. These
-relative paths must be modified when the project is moved to different
-relative location.
-
-
-Stack Size and Heap Size
------------------------
-In this project, the size of the C stack and heap are determined in
-the linker script blinky-qk.icf (see the next section).
-
-
-Linker Script
-------------
-The IAR linker script provides a template of the recommended linker script
-for QP applications. This file needs to be customized to set the
-application-specific sizes of the Stack and Heap. This file can be edited
-from the IAR EWARM IDE via the Project Options/Linker settings.
-
-
-Startup Code
-============
-The startup code for the EFM32PG1B200F256GM48 MCU used in this project is
-located in the "3rd_party" folder in the following location:
-
-3rd_party\efm32pg1b\iar\startup_efm32pg1b.s
-
-The file startup_efm32pg1b.s provides a template of the recommended
-startup for QP applications and should be easily customizable for other
-ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers.
-
-The startup file typically does not need to be modified or adapted for
-applications. It provides only weak definitions of all exception and
-interrupt handlers, as well as the assert_failed() function.
-
-The weak function assert_failed() defined in this file might be re-defined
-in the application to customize it for the application-specific error-
-handling policy.
-
-***
-NOTE: The function assert_failed() typically should NOT use the stack,
-because stack might be corrupted by the time this function is called.
-Also, assert_failed() is intended to handle catastrophic errors and
-should NOT return.
