Description
It is preferred that the macros xQueueSend(), xQueueSendToFront() and xQueueSendToBack() are used in place of calling this function directly. Post an item on a queue. The item is queued by copy, not by reference. This function must not be called from an interrupt service routine. See xQueueSendFromISR () for an alternative which may be used in an ISR. Example usage:
{c}
struct AMessage
{
char ucMessageID;
char ucData[ 20 ];
} xMessage;
uint32_t ulVar = 10UL;
void vATask( void *pvParameters )
{
QueueHandle_t xQueue1, xQueue2;
struct AMessage *pxMessage;
// Create a queue capable of containing 10 uint32_t values.
xQueue1 = xQueueCreate( 10, sizeof( uint32_t ) );
// Create a queue capable of containing 10 pointers to AMessage structures.
// These should be passed by pointer as they contain a lot of data.
xQueue2 = xQueueCreate( 10, sizeof( struct AMessage * ) );
// ...
if( xQueue1 != 0 )
{
// Send an uint32_t. Wait for 10 ticks for space to become
// available if necessary.
if( xQueueGenericSend( xQueue1, ( void * ) &ulVar, ( TickType_t ) 10, queueSEND_TO_BACK ) != pdPASS )
{
// Failed to post the message, even after 10 ticks.
}
}
if( xQueue2 != 0 )
{
// Send a pointer to a struct AMessage object. Don't block if the
// queue is already full.
pxMessage = & xMessage;
xQueueGenericSend( xQueue2, ( void * ) &pxMessage, ( TickType_t ) 0, queueSEND_TO_BACK );
}
// ... Rest of task code.
}
Delete a queue - freeing all the memory allocated for storing of items placed on the queue.
Receive an item from a queue. The item is received by copy so a buffer of adequate size must be provided. The number of bytes copied into the buffer was defined when the queue was created. Successfully received items are removed from the queue. This function must not be used in an interrupt service routine. See xQueueReceiveFromISR for an alternative that can. Example usage:
{c}
struct AMessage
{
char ucMessageID;
char ucData[ 20 ];
} xMessage;
QueueHandle_t xQueue;
// Task to create a queue and post a value.
void vATask( void *pvParameters )
{
struct AMessage *pxMessage;
// Create a queue capable of containing 10 pointers to AMessage structures.
// These should be passed by pointer as they contain a lot of data.
xQueue = xQueueCreate( 10, sizeof( struct AMessage * ) );
if( xQueue == 0 )
{
// Failed to create the queue.
}
// ...
// Send a pointer to a struct AMessage object. Don't block if the
// queue is already full.
pxMessage = & xMessage;
xQueueSend( xQueue, ( void * ) &pxMessage, ( TickType_t ) 0 );
// ... Rest of task code.
}
// Task to receive from the queue.
void vADifferentTask( void *pvParameters )
{
struct AMessage *pxRxedMessage;
if( xQueue != 0 )
{
// Receive a message on the created queue. Block for 10 ticks if a
// message is not immediately available.
if( xQueueReceive( xQueue, &( pxRxedMessage ), ( TickType_t ) 10 ) )
{
// pcRxedMessage now points to the struct AMessage variable posted
// by vATask.
}
}
// ... Rest of task code.
}
It is preferred that the macros xQueueSendFromISR(), xQueueSendToFrontFromISR() and xQueueSendToBackFromISR() be used in place of calling this function directly. xQueueGiveFromISR() is an equivalent for use by semaphores that don't actually copy any data. Post an item on a queue. It is safe to use this function from within an interrupt service routine. Items are queued by copy not reference so it is preferable to only queue small items, especially when called from an ISR. In most cases it would be preferable to store a pointer to the item being queued. Example usage for buffered IO (where the ISR can obtain more than one value per call):
{c}
void vBufferISR( void )
{
char cIn;
BaseType_t xHigherPriorityTaskWokenByPost;
// We have not woken a task at the start of the ISR.
xHigherPriorityTaskWokenByPost = pdFALSE;
// Loop until the buffer is empty.
do
{
// Obtain a byte from the buffer.
cIn = portINPUT_BYTE( RX_REGISTER_ADDRESS );
// Post each byte.
xQueueGenericSendFromISR( xRxQueue, &cIn, &xHigherPriorityTaskWokenByPost, queueSEND_TO_BACK );
} while( portINPUT_BYTE( BUFFER_COUNT ) );
// Now the buffer is empty we can switch context if necessary. Note that the
// name of the yield function required is port specific.
if( xHigherPriorityTaskWokenByPost )
{
portYIELD_FROM_ISR();
}
}

{
char cValueToPost;
const TickType_t xTicksToWait = ( TickType_t )0xff;

if( xQueue == 0 )

// ...

// is full then this task will block for xTicksToWait ticks.
cValueToPost = 'a';
xQueueSend( xQueue, ( void * ) &cValueToPost, xTicksToWait );
cValueToPost = 'b';
xQueueSend( xQueue, ( void * ) &cValueToPost, xTicksToWait );
// ... keep posting characters ... this task may block when the queue

}
// ISR that outputs all the characters received on the queue.

while( xQueueReceiveFromISR( xQueue, ( void * ) &cRxedChar, &xTaskWokenByReceive) )
{
// A character was received. Output the character now.
vOutputCharacter( cRxedChar );
// If removing the character from the queue woke the task that was
// posting onto the queue xTaskWokenByReceive will have been set to
// pdTRUE. No matter how many times this loop iterates only one
// task will be woken.
}
if( xTaskWokenByReceive != ( char ) pdFALSE;

A version of uxQueueMessagesWaiting() that can be called from an ISR. Return the number of messages stored in a queue.
Receive an item from a queue without removing the item from the queue. The item is received by copy so a buffer of adequate size must be provided. The number of bytes copied into the buffer was defined when the queue was created. Successfully received items remain on the queue so will be returned again by the next call, or a call to xQueueReceive(). This macro must not be used in an interrupt service routine. See xQueuePeekFromISR() for an alternative that can be called from an interrupt service routine. Example usage:

A version of xQueuePeek() that can be called from an interrupt service routine (ISR). Receive an item from a queue without removing the item from the queue. The item is received by copy so a buffer of adequate size must be provided. The number of bytes copied into the buffer was defined when the queue was created. Successfully received items remain on the queue so will be returned again by the next call, or a call to xQueueReceive().
A version of xQueueSelectFromSet() that can be used from an ISR.
Adds a queue or semaphore to a queue set that was previously created by a call to xQueueCreateSet(). See FreeRTOS/Source/Demo/Common/Minimal/QueueSet.c for an example using this function. Note 1: A receive (in the case of a queue) or take (in the case of a semaphore) operation must not be performed on a member of a queue set unless a call to xQueueSelectFromSet() has first returned a handle to that set member.
Removes a queue or semaphore from a queue set. A queue or semaphore can only be removed from a set if the queue or semaphore is empty. See FreeRTOS/Source/Demo/Common/Minimal/QueueSet.c for an example using this function.
xQueueSelectFromSet() selects from the members of a queue set a queue or semaphore that either contains data (in the case of a queue) or is available to take (in the case of a semaphore). xQueueSelectFromSet() effectively allows a task to block (pend) on a read operation on all the queues and semaphores in a queue set simultaneously. See FreeRTOS/Source/Demo/Common/Minimal/QueueSet.c for an example using this function. Note 1: See the documentation on https://www.FreeRTOS.org/RTOS-queue-sets.html for reasons why queue sets are very rarely needed in practice as there are simpler methods of blocking on multiple objects. Note 2: Blocking on a queue set that contains a mutex will not cause the mutex holder to inherit the priority of the blocked task. Note 3: A receive (in the case of a queue) or take (in the case of a semaphore) operation must not be performed on a member of a queue set unless a call to xQueueSelectFromSet() has first returned a handle to that set member.
