Description

The freertos10_xilinx.tcl script that generates FreeRTOSConfig.h file doesn't allow to override the default setting for INCLUDE_xTaskGetCurrentTaskHandle, found in FreeRTOS.h. The default value is disabled.

Third party SafeFlash library from HCC requires this feature to be enabled.

Currently there's no way to get around this but to post-edit the FreeRTOSConfig.h file, which is far from being a good solution.

Research direction

Start with freertos10_xilinx.tcl, which generates FreeRTOSConfig.h, and compare its available settings with INCLUDE_xTaskGetCurrentTaskHandle in FreeRTOS.h. Done means the setting can be overridden through the generation flow, allowing SafeFlash to use the feature without post-editing FreeRTOSConfig.h.
