Sorry for taking so long to answer this, but I hope the answer still helps: I suspect that the sys_arch_protect/unprotect macros are not correctly set up for multiprocessing. For a single core, the default behaviour is to lock interrupts and therefore to prevent a task switch (as we don't call OS functions leading to a task switch in locked sections). When you have multiple CPUs, multiple threads can run concurrently on your system. That means locking interrupts is not enough and you will have to convert sys_arch_protect/unprotect to lock by using a mutex.
