freeRTOS for VCU REV2:
-
freeRTOS Halcogen port to TMS570LS1227PGE - Needed since Halcogen doesn't provide a specific configuration for our MCU variant.
- Follow the above link, the last step of the tutorial is to change the linker file. This sets up the memory addresses of the MCU, and defines where freeRTOS will be stored. Because we are creating our own TMS5701227PGE_FREERTOS port, we need to specify these ourselves.
- In Code Composer, select the existing Halcogen-generated linker file (sys_link.cmd) in the lefthand projects pane underneath your source folder. Right click it and select 'Exclude from Build'. Instead of typing it out like the tutorial shows, download this linker file and paste it into your source folder.
- (We have to do this since Halcogen will keep trying to regenerate the wrong linker whenever we want to change any other halcogen driver parameter. There's another alternative that is a little less clean but does the job too.)
