Introduction: The Collision of C++ and Neural Networks In today’s programming world, C++ is like a low-key yet powerful “behind-the-scenes hero”, firmly dominating the field of high-performance computing. From the stunningly realistic graphics rendering in game development to precise handling of complex data in scientific computing, C++ builds efficient systems through its near-ultimate control over … Read more
Writing code inevitably leads to bugs. Using print statements to check values? That’s too basic! Today, let’s have a good talk about using GDB, the debugging tool. Don’t be fooled by its simple interface; its debugging capabilities are truly powerful! What is GDB? Simply put, GDB is a command-line debugging tool that allows you to … Read more

I believe that the most important aspect of embedded systems is the scheduler, which I think is also the main value of FreeRTOS. However, in addition to the debugger, ZephyrRTOS offers much more. Main Thread The ZephyrRTOS kernel starts the Main Thread after completing the necessary startup tasks, including the initialization of drivers, before entering … Read more
First, there is no communication issue between threads within the same process. You can access data however you want; thus, we actually need to do something to actively “isolate” different threads to avoid dirty reads and writes. Second, multi-threaded programming (as well as multi-process programming) requires a foundation in operating systems. Without understanding the operating … Read more
Click the blue text above to follow us The operations of thread creation, termination, cancellation, reclamation, and detachment are core to multithreaded programming. In multithreaded programming, it is essential to manage the lifecycle of threads properly to avoid issues such as resource leaks, race conditions, or zombie threads. 1 Creating Threads In Linux, by default, … Read more
Click the blue text above to follow us In Linux multithreading programming, specific cleanup operations can be performed when a thread terminates by registering a thread cleanup handler. This is similar to using atexit() to register process termination handlers. The thread cleanup handler is used to perform resource release or cleanup tasks when a thread … Read more
My Understanding of Architectural Design 1. Understanding of Architectural Design Concepts I believe most readers of this article are engaged in embedded development, and you may have noticed that job postings for architectural design roles on recruitment websites are predominantly focused on Web development, with very few openings for system architects in embedded positions. My … Read more
Microsecond-Level Delay Design Solutions Generally, in an RTOS system with a clock of 1KHz, the minimum time for thread_sleep() is 1ms. In real-time control, there are situations where microsecond (us) level delays are required. What should we do in this case? There are two implementation approaches for microsecond-level delays: one is to increase the system … Read more
Reader *Shi San* asks: Can the blogger introduce methods for multiple tasks to access the same hardware under RTOS? For example, multiple tasks need to use the serial port to print information. My answer is: Both mutexes and queues can solve the access conflict problem. Multithreaded access to the same serial hardware is commonly used … Read more
