Outline

Activate task (does not queue an activation request).

C format

 ER      sta_tsk (ID tskid, VP_INT stacd);

 ER      ista_tsk (ID tskid, VP_INT stacd);

Parameter(s)

I/O	Parameter	Description
I	ID tskid;	ID number of the task.
I	VP_INT stacd;	Start code of the task.

Explanation

These service calls move the task specified by parameter tskid from the DORMANT state to the READY state.

As a result, the target task is queued at the end on the ready queue corresponding to the initial priority and becomes subject to scheduling by the RI600PX.

At this time, processing described in Table 19-3 is done.

These service calls do not perform queuing of activation requests. If the target task is in a state other than the DORMANT state, the status manipulation processing for the target task is therefore not performed but "E_OBJ" is returned.

The stacd is passed to the target task.
