Hi,

No, you cannot fork a thread in zephyr.

You can however setup two individual threads that calls the same function. Be sure to make the function re-entrant.

Kind regards,

Håkon

Hi,

Not 100% sure what you want to do here. Do you want to inspect the current thread wrt. stack usage? If yes, please see CONFIG_THREAD_ANALYZER, as shown in this config:

https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-nrf/blob/master/samples/bluetooth/peripheral_uart/prj_minimal.conf#L71-L92

Or do you want to ensure that a specific thread does not hang? If that is the case, you can use the watchdog.

Kind regards,

Håkon
