In this tutorial we will be looking all the possible freeRtos configuration.
Task States
In the FreeRTOS a task can be in either of four different states viz., Running, Ready, Blocked and Suspended as shown in below image.
1.Running: The task which is executing currently is said to be in running state. It owns the CPU.
2.Ready: The task which is neither suspended nor blocked but still not executing will be in ready state. It's not in running state because either a high priority or equal priority task is executing.
3.Blocked: A task will go in blocked state whenever it is waiting for an event to happen. The event can be completing a delay period or availability of a resource. The blocked tasks are not available for scheduling.
4.Suspended: When vTaskSuspend() is called, the task goes in suspended state. It can be resumed by calling xTaskResume(). The suspended tasks are also not available for scheduling.
