RE: Spawn multiple threads dynamically from inside a loop.

Thanks for your reply! I ended up creating additional threads with individual stacks statically, which removed the timing overlap and that worked as expected. I also suspect that with my dynamic approach the common stack is the problem. That makes sense... But Zephyr is new to me too and I wanted to get feedback on if I might be missing something obvious. If I have to readdress this I will update this post with anything I learn.

I never tried this, but I think having a common stack during the overlap period is the problem. Either split the stack into number of parts that you can have maximum number of overlaps at a time (which is 3 overlaps at a time) or have separate tasks.

[quote user=""], to accomplishing this with a single thread definition and without statically creating multiple threads to handle the overlap?[/quote]

I think Zephyr is designed to best think in a statically creation of stuff. This was pretty evident when I started to use Zephyr for Bluetooth and saw the way the services were defined (statically)..

No I can't think of any way but I do not think that I have thought this through. If you manage to find a way, Please write it here so that I can learn a thing.
