Please don't forget to pass 2nd BOOL* argument to xSemaphoreGiveFromISR and call portYIELD_FROM_ISR if it gets set to pdTRUE. If you don't do that, preemption will only happen on the next FreeRTOS tick. Ah ... so i was using it wrong all this time ! I found a correct example of semaphore usage, and...

Do you get the same weird behaviour if you pin the task to CPU 0 instead of 1? OK, this is even stranger. If I pin the task to cpu 0, then the notification doesn't work correctly whether I create the semaphore and register the handler in app_main or in the task initialization code. In both cases, I...

I am using a binary semaphore given from an isr that notifies a task to read new data from a device. The device generates data ready interrupts at approximately 400Hz, so the task should be also getting notifications from the semaphore at the same rate. If i create the global semaphore in the task t...

OK ESP_Sprite, thanks for the explanation.

I just ran some test code to find out how much time elapsed after a call to vTaskDelay using the XTHAL_GET_CCOUNT() macro and am confused by the result. FreeRTOS tickrate set to 250, CPU clock frequency set to 80MHZ in 'make menuconfig' #include "common.h" #include "xtensa/core-macros.h" #include "c...

I built my code with the latest esp-idf (Nov 19) and the problem went away. Thanks Gfast2. Sorry for the false alarm.

I'm also having trouble with this function. I set the FreeRTOS tick rate to 250 in 'make menuconfig', and called vTaskDelayUntil with a period of 4mS. Resulted in a panic/reboot. vTaskDelay works, but it doesn't give me the uniform sampling period that i need. This is with an esp-idf downloaded on O...

I purchased a WROOM32 module a month ago after reading some reviews from buyers that mentioned they had received a rev 1 chip. Looking for code to check the revision, I found Arduino code on instructables (and the same in a youtube video series on the ESP32) http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Ch...

As promised, esp-idf project published on github at https://github.com/har-in-air/ESP32-LCD-I2S

I used a modified version of Chuck Lohr's 3d graphics code to demonstrate the application.

Hacked a solution ! I eventually figured that the data packets during which the HS pulse was high were ignored by the LCD, since the HS pulse was a full clock period in width. I ended up padding each row at the end with 4 extra packets (32 bits) with HS high, and it works ! BTW, I had another proble...
