Hi

I have tried to get the freeRTOS running on a STM32F100R4, there is no excact demoes for this target, but I have tried to set it up manually, It Compiles fine, but efter calling the

vPortStartFirstTask 

in the port.c file everything seems to stop. The systemTick counter is running, but if I break the program, the debugger stops, and give me and error. I can single step down to the last command in the function, but when execute the

scv 0
, the debugger stops. 

I have add some lines to the standadt startup file startup_stm32f10x_ld_vl.s

        IMPORT xPortPendSVHandler
        IMPORT xPortSysTickHandler
        IMPORT vPortSVCHandler

I'm using the CMSIS and stdPerph driver interface from ST, to set up the clock and the SystemTick. I hope anyone can help me to solve this problem !

Here is my program
[code

SystemInit (); // CMSIS system init
SysTick_CLKSourceConfig( SysTick_CLKSource_HCLK );

xTaskCreate( vTaskCode, ( signed portCHAR * ) "LCD", configMINIMAL_STACK_SIZE, NULL, tskIDLE_PRIORITY, NULL );
]vTaskStartScheduler();



These are my global defines

USE_FULL_ASSERT  
USE_STDPERIPH_DRIVER
STM32F10X_LD_VL 
VECT_TAB_SRAM
RVDS_ARMCM3_LM3S1

I presume you mean "svc 0", not "SCV 0".

Try putting a "cpsie i" instruction before the "svc 0" instruction - it might be that the start up code is leaving interrupts globally disabled in the CPSR. The FreeRTOS code does not expect to touch the global interrupt status, only the BASEPRI register.

If you get a warning saying that some padding was added, just either ignore it, use the asm directive to ensure correct padding, or most simply add a "nop" instruction after the svc 0, so you get

cpsie i
svc 0
nop

where previously there was just
svc 0

Hi Thanks for the repply, hower it did not solve the problem.

But I have it up running now. I missed a couple of lines to set the interrupts prioty

  /* Set the Vector Table base address at 0x08000000 */
NVIC_SetVectorTable( NVIC_VectTab_FLASH, 0x0 );

NVIC_PriorityGroupConfig( NVIC_PriorityGroup_4 );
