Hi, Giovanni!

Thanks for the quick response. Now everything makes sense.

Have a nice weekend,

Hello!

Does the tickless mode still use a periodic timer? At least the STM32F4 implementation looks like it does (it uses TIM2). If so what's the difference between the traditional SysTick approach? Or am I perhaps misinterpreting the code?

Hi, Giovanni!

Thanks for the reply. I've read the kernel concepts chapter before posting. Having read it yet again I must confess that I must have skipped over the relevant part right at the top of the page. Mea culpa!

Hi!

I've just found out the answer myself:

Use of S-class or I-class APIs outside a proper lock state.

(from "Common Mistakes")

Hi!

While calling normal class functions is only allowed from normal state, what about non-normal class functions? Do they have to be called exclusively from their non-normal state or may they be called from normal state as well?
