Segger Embedded Studio: adding thread awareness for Zephyr

[jbrzozoski]

I'm trying to piece together a thread awareness script for SES as outlined here: https://studio.segger.com/ide_threads_window.htm

I've got an extremely basic script that I know still has bugs, but at least enumerates all threads and their states:

function init()
{
  Threads.setColumns("Name", "Handle", "Priority", "State");
  Threads.setSortByNumber("Priority");
  Threads.setSortByNumber("State");
  Threads.setSortByNumber("Handle");
}

// Depends on CONFIG_THREAD_MONITOR in your prj.conf
function update()
{
  Threads.clear();
  var z_thread = Debug.evaluate("_kernel.threads");
  var count = 0;
  while (z_thread && count < 20) 
  {
    var td = Debug.evaluate("*(k_thread*)"+z_thread);
    Threads.add(td.name, z_thread, td.base.prio, td.base.thread_state, z_thread);
    z_thread = td.next_thread;
    count++;
  }
}

function getregs(x)
{
  // TODO - This function needs a lot of help ... it is very incomplete ...
  var td = Debug.evaluate("*(k_thread*)"+x);
  return [ 0, 1, 2, 3, td.callee_saved.v1, td.callee_saved.v2, td.callee_saved.v3, td.callee_saved.v4, td.callee_saved.v5, td.callee_saved.v6, td.callee_saved.v7, td.callee_saved.v8, 12, td.callee_saved.psp, 14, 15 ];
}

One thing i couldn't figure out is how to have it automatically imported into the SES project?  I can do it manually before I use it, but that's going to get annoying in the long run.  I'm not sure what bit of scripts generate the *.emProject files in the build directory and how to inject a file into them.  Anyone know?

Also, please feel free to suggest improvements to the script itself.  Getting all the registers is the another mystery I'm trying to solve.

Even though this thread is old, you can find the necessary information at this page: https://wiki.segger.com/Enable_RTOS_Awareness_in_Embedded_Studio

Basically, put the script in your project and open the Options of the solution, goto debugging and set "Thread Script File" to point to threads.js
