Hi Shishir,
I seem to recall having the same issue when starting the EFM32 port.
The issue in my case was that without the startup files, the .bss section
was not getting cleared.
When the threads came to launch, the value in one of the kernel functions
was not correct. Which is pretty easy to check with a debugger.
The fix was to clear the .bss section in the _init routine, my
implementation (using symbols from the linker) is:
//Clear bss
for (uint32_t i = (uint32_t)&__bss_start__; i < (uint32_t)&__bss_end__;
i++) {
addr = (int*)i;
*addr = (int)NULL;
}
I am not sure this is the /correct/ way to do it, but the .bss definitely
needs to be initialised to zeros.
Hope that helps,
Ryan
