Updated pvContainer member of list items to List_t * rather than void * as they are always contained in a list if anywhere.
Made EventGroupHandle_t typesafe pointer to forward referenced struct rather than void pointer.
Made TaskHandle_t typesafe pointer to forward referenced struct, rather than a void pointer.
Update the MingW/Eclipse project to add a code coverage build configuration in addition to the existing Debug build configuration.
Update StreamBufferDemo.c so functions are called directly, rather than via configASSERT(), so their code coverage can be measured when configASSERT() is not defined.
In the Win32 port, replace the call to TerminateProcess() in vPortEndScheduler() with exit( 0 ) - which triggers the writing of the code coverage data to the disk.
Fix bug in ucStreamBufferGetStreamBufferType() - which is only used by the Percepio trace tool.
Update the line within vTaskStartScheduler() that was setting xTickCount to 0 to instead set it to configINITIAL_TICK_COUNT.
Correct alignment issue in GCC Cortex-R port that was preventing full floating point usage in interrupts (other ports will be updated likewise).
Update the UltraScale R5 demo to test the GCC Cortex-A9 port layer modification mentioned on the line above.
Introduce configSTACK_DEPTH_TYPE so the application writer change the type used to specify a stack size from uint16_t to whatever they like. Defaults to uint16_t if not defined.
Introduce configINITIAL_TICK_COUNT to allow users to start the tick count at something other than 0. Used for testing, but overflows can be better tested by setting configUSE_16_BIT_TICKS to 1.
Split xQueueGenericReceive() into xQueueReceive(), xQueuePeek() and xQueueSemaphoreTake() as the first step in refactoring xQueueGenericReceive().
Add Cortex-M3 port layer for Code Composer Studio - previously there was only a Cortex-M4F port.
Introduce configPRE_SUPPRESS_TICKS_AND_SLEEP_PROCESSING() to allow applications to prevent portSUPPRESS_TICKS_AND_SLEEP() being called. Previously the portPRE_SLEEP_PROCESSING() macro could only be used to abort entry into sleep time after clocks had been re-programmed for the distant wake time.
+ Add configASSERT() into ARM Cortex-M ports to check the number of priority
bit settings.
+ Clear the 'control' register before starting ARM Cortex-M4F ports in case
the FPU is used before the scheduler is started. This just saves a few
bytes on the main stack as it prevents space being left for a later save
of FPU registers.
+ Added xSemaphoreGetMutexHolderFromISR().
+ Corrected use of portNVIC_PENDSVSET to portNVIC_PENDSVSET_BIT in MPU ports.
- Clear the SysTick current value register before starting the SysTick (only required if something uses SysTick before starting the scheduler).
- Ensure atomic operations are thread safe by executing clrex in the context switch.
+ Set flash wait states on MSP432 demos.
+ Remove use of obsolete IO library in PIC32 demos.
+ Remove obsolete item left on stack of first task to run in the Cortex-M0 ports.
+ Correct IA32 GCC vPortExitCritical() implementation when configMAX_API_CALL_INTERRUPT_PRIORITY == portMAX_PRIORITY.
Add an MPU demo that uses the Keil simulator that also uses the Keil compiler.
Correct a few version numbers for files recently added to the repository.
Add RVDS ARM Cortex-M4F MPU port.
Increase the size of each buffer allocated to pbufs in the Microblaze lwIP demo to prevent pbufs chaining.
Use _start as the top of the stack for each Microblaze task, rather than NULL, as NULL was causing the Xilinx SDK to try and unwind the stack too far.
Tidy up CEC1302 demo.
Ensure bit 0 of the task address is clear when setting up stack of initial Cortex-M3/4/7 stacks (for strict compliance, although not practically necessary).
vTaskGetTaskInfo() changed to vTaskGetInfo() - with a macro added for backward compatibility.
Reduce the number of xTaskCreateStatic() parameters by having the function return the task handle, rather than pass the task handle out using a parameter. This is also consistent with other objectCreate() functions.
+ The MPU port is not supported in this revision number.
+ The documentation for the static allocation functions in the header files has not yet been updated for this revision.
Kernel updates:
+ Simplify the static allocation of objects implementation.

+ Added xTaskAbortDelay() function, which causes a task to exit the Blocked state even before the timeout has expired or the event the task is waiting for has occurred.
+ For efficiency and code size reasons on some architectures, replace many instances of "== pdTRUE" with "!= pdFALSE".
+ Added xPortIsInsideInterrupt() to RVDS ARM CM4F port - the same will get added to other ports in time.
Demo application code:
+ Added first pass Microchip CEC1302 demo for Keil.
+ Harden the new StaticAllocation.c standard demo tasks against integer promotion rules causing problems on 16-bit architectures.
Move structures used for static allocation of tasks and queues into FreeRTOS.h from their individual API header files.

Demo app changes:
+ SAMD20 project has been updated to use Atmel Studio 7.
+ Support tickless idle when configUSE_PREEMPTION is 0 (previously tickless idle was only supported when the pre-emptive scheduler was being used).

+ Remove use of INCLUDE_xEventGroupsSetBitsFromISR() pre-processor macro, as it was not tested anyway.
Demo app changes:
+ Updated SAM4L Atmel Studio project to use Atmel Studio 7.

Demo apps:
+ Demo/Rename the CORTEX_R4F_T_GCC_IAR_ARM directory to just Rename the CORTEX_R4F_T_GCC_IAR.
+ Add IAR project for the RX113.
+ Add RX231 e2studio projects for the RX231.
- Remove configASSERT() if a queue cannot be created, malloc failed hook will be called anyway.
Demo apps:
- RZ/T blinky demo working, but still lots to do to improve the port.
FreeRTOS+Trace:
- Add trace macros for task notifications.
- Update to the latest trace recorder library.
Demo projects:
- Only include the CLI command to show run time states if configGENERATE_RUN_TIME_STATS is set to 1.
- Back out changes that allow mutexes to be given from a semaphore after tests showed issues that would not be fast to fix.
Demo projects:
- Update the Microblaze Kintex 7 project and BSP to use version 2015.2 of the Xilinx SDK.
Add additional NOPs as required by hardware manual.
Microblaze:
Previously a task inherited the exception enable state from the context from which xTaskCreate() was called. Now tasks all have exceptions enabled if they are enabled in the hardware.
Windows/GCC:
Improve the implementation of portGET_HIGHEST_PRIORITY.
Common code:
Simplify the pointer use in xQueueGenericCreate()

Remove jpg images that were used to create web pages.
Fix capitalisation issues in some demos where some header files are incldued with the wrong case, preventing building on Linux.
Remove the Microblaze demos that are using obsolete tools.
Update main_blinky for the Windows port demo to include a software timer example.
Windows port: Add code to ensure Windows threads are truely suspended before resuming another thread.
Typo correction to the task notification standard demo task.
Correct case of some include file names to fix build issues on Linux.
+ The timer task now blocks indefinitely if there are no timers active, allowing eTaskConfirmSleepModeStatus to return eNoTasksWaitingTimeout when configUSE_TIMERS is set to 1.
+ The next unblock time is calculated automatically after a task unblocks when waiting for a notification, allowing deep sleep to be entered earlier.
Remove redundant global definition vPortInstallFreeRTOSVectorTable from the GCC ARM_CA9 portASM.S file.
Ensure correct sequence of start up sequence when the Windows port is used on multi-core Windows machines by starting one thread in the suspended state.
Move initialisation of xNextTaskUnblockTime to the function that starts the scheduler, rather than from where the variable is declared - this fixes a compiler warning in newer IAR compilers.
Fix "elif (SELECTED_PORT == PORT_MICROCHIP_PIC32MX || PORT_MICROCHIP_PIC32MZ)" in the FreeRTOS+Trace trcHardwarePort.h header file.
Exclude the entire croutine.c file when configUSE_CO_ROUTINES is 0.
New ports:
Added Cortex-M7 IAR and Keil port layers that include a minor errata workaround r0p1 Cortex-M7 devices.
Added Cortex-M4F port layer for CCS.
New demo applications:
Added demo application for STM32F7.
Added demo application for SAMv71.
+ Added mtCOVERAGE_TEST_DELAY() macro to facilitate getting better code coverage during testing.

+ GCC and Keil Cortex-M4F ports now use vPortRaiseBASEPRI() in place of ulPortRaiseBASEPRI() where the return value is not required (minor performance improvement).
Demo changes:
Change the [very basic] FreeRTOS+UDP SAM4E driver to use task notifications rather than a semaphore (execution time now 55% what it was in FreeRTOS V8.1.2!).
Robustness improvements to IntQueue.c standard demo task.h.
Added the latest standard demo tasks, reg test tasks and int q tasks to the SAM4E demo.
+ Do not attempt to free the stack of a deleted task if the stack was statically allocated.
+ Introduce configUSE_LIST_DATA_INTEGRITY_CHECK_BYTES - which optionally writes known values into the list and list item data structures in order to assist with the detection of memory corruptions.
Microblase port:
+Change occurrences of #if XPAR_MICROBLAZE_0_USE_FPU == 1 to #if XPAR_MICROBLAZE_0_USE_FPU != 0 as the value can also be 2 or 3.
