Hi, I'm currently in the process of porting one of my applications to eCos. One function of my app needs a periodic activation. Up to now this is nothing unusual I would just use an alarm handler. The problem now is that in my periodic function I need to work on some data which is protected by a mutex. As I should not do this in a DSR the only solution I found was to activate a thread from the DSR. This I would do with a semaphore as suggested sometimes on the list.
Is this a reasonable and efficient way to do? I don't want to add more overhead as already needed for the mutexes and that kind of stuff. Any suggestions are welcome.
