3-Minute Summary: Using Flash as Non Volatile Storage on Raspberry PI Pico with FreeRTOS & SMP

This is a 3 minutes summary of the Video: • Using Flash as Non Vol...
I looked at using Flash memory on the Raspberry PI Pico and Pico W to hold non-volatile variables back in the video: • Unlocking The Power Of... . That looked at running on Pico in a Bare-metal mode, i.e. just using the Pico SDK.
In this video, I look at how to provide the critical section controls to make this safe to do under FreeRTOS and FreeRTOS SMP. With many tasks running at the same time.
Doing this on FreeRTOS in a single core mode is straightforward. Doing it under FreeRTOS SMP with dual cores reading instructions from the Flash is not so easy.
The code can all be found in the repo: github.com/jondurrant/RPIPico...
