Description

ctl_task_run takes a pointer in task to the CTL_TASK_t structure that represents the task. The priority can be zero for the lowest priority up to 255 which is the highest. The entrypoint parameter is the function that the task will execute which has the parameter passed to it.

name is a pointer to a zero-terminated string used for debug purposes.

The start of the memory used to hold the stack that the task will execute in is stack and the size of the memory is supplied in stack_size_in_words. On systems that have two stacks (e.g. Atmel AVR) then the call_size_in_words parameter must be set to specify the number of stack elements to use for the call stack.
