Overview

RTX51 is a multitasking real-time operating system for the 8051 family of processors.

RTX51 simplifies software design of complex, time-critical projects.

There are two distinct versions of RTX51 available:

RTX51 Full Performs both round-robin and preemptive task switching using up

to four task priorities. RTX51 works in parallel with interrupt

functions. Signals and messages may be passed between tasks us-

ing a mailbox system. You can allocate and free memory from a

memory pool. You can force a task to wait for an interrupt, time-

out, or signal or message from another task or interrupt.

RTX51 Tiny Is a subset of RTX51 that will easily run on single-chip 8051 sys-

tems without any external data memory. RTX51 Tiny supports

many of the features found in RTX51 with the following excep-

tions: RTX51 Tiny only supports round-robin and the use of sig-

nals for task switching. Preemptive task switching is not sup-

ported. No message routines are included. No memory pool allo-

cation routines are available.

The remainder of this chapter uses RTX51 to refer to both variants. Differences between

the two are so stated in the text as their need becomes applicable.

Introduction

Many microcontroller applications require simultaneous execution of multiple jobs or

tasks. For such applications, a real-time operating system (RTOS) allows flexible sched-

uling of system resources (CPU, memory, etc.) to several tasks. RTX51 implements a

powerful RTOS which is easy to use. RTX51 works with all 8051 derivatives.

You write and compile RTX51 programs using standard C constructs and compiling them

with C51. Only a few deviations from standard C are required in order to specify the task

ID and priority. RTX51 programs also require that you include the real-time executive

header file and link using the BL51 Linker/Locator and the appropriate RTX51 library

file.

8RTX51 Real-Time Operating System

1Single Task Program

A standard C program starts execution with the main function. In an embedded applica-

tion, main is usually coded as an endless loop and can be thought of as a single task which

is executed continuously. For example:

int counter;

void main (void) {

counter = 0;

while (1) { /* repeat forever */

counter++; /* increment counter */

}

Round-Robin Program

A more sophisticated C program may implement what is called a round-robin pseudo-

multitasking scheme without using a RTOS. In this scheme, tasks or functions are called

iteratively from within an endless loop. For example:

int counter;

void main (void) {

counter = 0;

while (1) { /* repeat forever */

check_serial_io ();

process_serial_cmds (); /* process serial input */

check_kbd_io ();

process_kbd_cmds (); /* process keyboard input */

adjust_ctrlr_parms (); /* adjust the controller */

counter++; /* increment counter */

}

Round-Robin Scheduling With RTX51

RTX51 also performs round-robin multitasking which allows quasi-parallel execution of

several endless loops or tasks. Tasks are not executed concurrently but are time-sliced.

The available CPU time is divided into time slices and RTX51 assigns a time slice to

every task. Each task is allowed to execute for a predetermined amount of time. Then,

RTX51 switches to another task that is ready to run and allows that task to execute for a

while. The time slices are very short, usually only a few milliseconds. For this reason, it

appears as though the tasks are executing simultaneously.

RTX Tiny 9

RTX51 uses a timing routine which is interrupt driven by one of the 8051 hardware tim-

ers. The periodic interrupt that is generated is used to drive the RTX51 clock.

RTX51 does not require you to have a main function in your program. It will automati-

cally begin executing task 0. If you do have a main function, you must manually start

RTX51 using the os_create_task function in RTX51 Tiny and the os_start_system

function in RTX51.

The following example shows a simple RTX51 application that uses only round-robin

task scheduling. The two tasks in this program are simple counter loops. RTX51 starts

executing task 0 which is the function names job0. This function adds another task

called job1. After job0 executes for a while, RTX51 switches to job1. After

job1 executes for a while, RTX51 switches back to job0. This process is repeated in-

definitely.

#include <rtx51tny.h>

int counter0;

int counter1;

void job0 (void) _task_ 0 {

os_create (1); /* mark task 1 as ready */

while (1) { /* loop forever */

counter0++; /* update the counter */

}

void job1 (void) _task_ 1 {

while (1) { /* loop forever */

counter1++; /* update the counter */

}

RTX51 Events

Rather than waiting for a task’s time slice to be up, you can use the os_wait function to

signal RTX51 that it can let another task begin execution. This function suspends execu-

tion of the current task and waits for a specified event to occur. During this time, any

number of other tasks may be executing.

Using Time-outs with RTX51

The simplest event you can wait for with the os_wait function is a time-out period in

RTX51 clock ticks. This type of event can be used in a task where a delay is required.

This could be used in code that polled a switch. In such a situation, the switch need only

be checked every 50ms or so.

The next example shows how you can use the os_wait function to delay execution while

allowing other tasks to execute.

10 RTX51 Real-Time Operating System

1#include <rtx51tny.h>

int counter0;

int counter1;

void job0 (void) _task_ 0 {

os_create (1); /* mark task 1 as ready */

while (1) { /* loop forever */

counter0++; /* update the counter */

os_wait (K_TMO, 3); /* pause for 3 clock ticks */

}

void job1 (void) _task_ 1 {

while (1) { /* loop forever */

counter1++; /* update the counter */

os_wait (K_TMO, 5); /* pause for 5 clock ticks */

}

In the above example, job0 enables job1 as before. But now, after incrementing

counter0, job0 calls the os_wait function to pause for 3 clock ticks. At this time,

RTX51 switches to the next task, which is job1. After job1 increments counter1,

it too calls os_wait to pause for 5 clock ticks. Now, RTX51 has no other tasks to exe-

cute, so it enters an idle loop waiting for 3 clock ticks to elapse before it can continue

executing job0.

The result of this example is that counter0 gets incremented every 3 timer ticks and

counter1 gets incremented every 5 timer ticks.

Using Signals with RTX51

You can use the os_wait function to pause a task while waiting for a signal (or binary

semaphore) from another task. This can be used for coordinating two or more tasks.

Waiting for a signal works as follows: If a task goes to wait for a signal, and the signal

flag is 0, the task is suspended until the signal is sent. If the signal flag is already 1 when

the task queries the signal, the flag is cleared, and execution of the task continues. The

following example illustrates this:

#include <rtx51tny.h>

int counter0;

int counter1;

void job0 (void) _task_ 0 {

os_create (1); /* mark task 1 as ready */

while (1) { /* loop forever */

if (++counter0 == 0) /* update the counter */

os_send_signal (1); /* signal task 1 */

}
