POSIX
Introduction
Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX) is a series of standards specified by the IEEE Computer Society to maintain compatibility between operating systems. The WM IoT SDK utilizes FreeRTOS-Plus-POSIX,which can implement A subset of POSIX threading API. With this subset, application developers familiar with POSIX API can develop FreeRTOS applications using POSIX-like threading primitives. However, FreeRTOS-Plus-POSIX only implements about 20% of the POSIX API. Therefore, it is not possible to simply port existing POSIX-compliant applications or libraries to run on the FreeRTOS kernel using this wrapper alone.
Current Supported Features
FreeRTOS-Plus-POSIX has implemented part of the IEEE Std 1003.1-2017 version of the Open Group Technical Standards Basic Specification, Issue 7. FreeRTOS-Plus-POSIX includes the implementation of the following POSIX thread header files:
errno.h
fcntl.h
mqueue.h
pthread.h
sched.h
semaphore.h
signal.h
sys/types.h
time.h
unistd.h
utils.h
