ESP32 Volume 10

Inter-Processor Communication

Implement Inter-Processor Communication (IPC) mechanisms on dual-core ESP32s to allow tasks running on different cores to exchange data and signals.

Control which CPU core (0 or 1) specific FreeRTOS tasks run on using task affinity settings (core pinning) on dual-core ESP32s for optimization.

Leverage the dual-core architecture of many ESP32 variants using Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP) features in FreeRTOS for parallel execution.

Master advanced interrupt handling and critical section management in FreeRTOS on ESP32 to protect shared data and ensure system stability.

Use FreeRTOS stream buffers and message buffers on ESP32 for efficient, thread-safe byte stream or discrete message passing between tasks and ISRs.
